Originally from Italy, the Giambrone family came to America (New York specifically) during the early 1920’s. From the start, they had always tried to keep the peace amongst the eight families and tried to take on a bit more of a leadership role over all of them sometimes as the Magistrate and as the Centurion at different times. It was always, and still is, Abjurations belief that the roles of Magistrate, Centurion and Enforcer should be rotated so that no one or two families became too strong or overly powerful over the other families. Whenever a new Head took control of the Giambrone family, they made it their business to know everyone’s business, whether by getting it strategically straight from the source or poking around the other families business through different channels. The more information about the families, the easier it would be to protect all of them.

Thanks to having a decent relationship with the Divination family, the Larks, the Giambrone’s were able to grow their fortune via the stock market and such. Vincent Giambrone took over as Head of the family at a young age, nearly 25, when his father suffered a stroke and passed away from complications. He was newly married to Daniella, daughter of an Arcane Protector, and newly named CEO of his family's investment firm. It was established early in Vincent's marriage with Daniella, that she would basically be viewed as a trophy wife, meant only to take care of the children, participate in their children's PTA, and host charity events.

Not being considered an equal by her husband and not being magical, Daniella sought control in different ways. One such way was being very controlling over her children's lives, what they ate, who they hung around with, what instruments they would learn, and how well they did in school. How she acted when she was around other families was vastly different from how she acted at home. She was always super friendly and helpful at any social gatherings, which pleased Vincent. Since he traveled often for both magical and non-magical business often, Vincent wasn't fully aware of how controlling and different Daniella was when he wasn't around. If he had known, he might have spent more time at home and less time with his mistresses and traveling.

In spite of remaining close with the Lark's and the Fawkes', Vincent strove to work closely and carefully with all the other families. Not everyone liked the families he'd remained close with, but that shouldn't have been considered when protection was what the prime goal was. He was continually working to try and bring peace, or some semblance of it, to the eight families. No, they would never be as close and well oiled as they had once been, but together they were strongest against all enemies and their forces. Vincent was working towards this up until the day he disappeared.



→Oldest Little Brother: age 23-25. Dante Giambrone is the second child and first son to the current head of the Giambrone family. In his opinion, he should have been named heir to the head of the family as he’s the oldest male child and males are the ones in charge. Mad at the circumstance of his birth, Dante vowed to do anything to become powerful within the families and rule them all. Now that all the families are together, he's finding it easier to watch the families and to try and gather as much information as possible to over throw the heads and become the main ruler.

→ Littletest Brother: age 20-22. Three years his brother’s junior, Luca Giambrone, is quite the opposite. He’s laid back and spends money like its water. Luca has always had the idea in his head that women are to be devoured and spoiled. He’s a lover, not a fighter and definitely not the type of person you’d want to have any sort of real responsibility or control. That’s fine by him, as he’d rather spend his time pursuing pleasure.
