The Beginning
Unlike most Organisations and gangs in Los Santos The Marlowe Family has no prior connections or past dealings with the city or the people within it, The Marlowe Family being a name rarely heard of or spoken about. The organisation was formed unintentionally after Sal found himself without a penny to his name, gambling his money away at the casino and slowly spiraling into a pit of depression and alcoholism. After starting some small talk with a solicitor called [REDACTED] on a bench by the city hall, Sal was shown around the city eventually being introduced to a man he now calls his business partner. Sal believed all business whether legal or illegal should be performed professionally and as such all employees of the Marlowe's can be seen around the city in business suits and more formal clothing. The Marlowes started out scraping by, reselling various drugs they bought from a supplier utilizing the discounts they received from buying supply in bulk to turn a profit. Sal Marlowe and his unconventional style of business was quickly noticed by his supplier and after several days of talking back and forth, The Marlowes were eventually employed as distributors working for an individual using their contacts and skills to help distribute their employer's products in bulk out to all who are interested.

The Expansion
Sal Marlowe never viewed himself as much of a leader but he understood the necessity of security and safety, by utilizing the list of contacts and customers he had built over a small amount of time he reached out to local citizens he regularly had dealings with offering them work as security guards in hopes he could sway them into assisting with his business, tempting them with money and whatever else he could. At first he was unsuccessful only hiring a single man with a questionable background in the underworld of Los Santos, but as time passed and the Marlowes continued to work, slowly networking and recruiting more likeminded members the family began to grow. While still very unknown to most, the Marlowes aren't out for Power and 'clout' but more just wish to be respected as businessmen.
Business Practice & Morals
The Marlowe Family is somewhat unique in the world of crime when compared to the stereotypically violent and chaotic gangs that can be found around Los Santos. this is because all members are taught to avoid fights unless it's absolutely necessary. They're all about making a profit and running their operations smoothly, while many gangs may simply throw insults at the Marlowes method of conflict resolution we believe they are simply blinded by the idea loosing blood and money over childish issues benefits them which from almost all views externally we can happily say is not true. Very rarely there is a good reason for all out war and those reasons where war is a necessity are far and few. What also sets The Marlowes apart from others is that they're strongly against criminals who rob or hurt innocent people, actively turning down possible members that take part in such activities. They have their own set of rules they stick to, and they want their reputation to be built on being cautious and successful, rather than causing trouble in the city and boasting about it like a street dealer on tweedle.
The family views criminals that rob innocent citizens as 'street rats' & 'beggars' who gain their profits from the efforts of others instead of working hard to build up a strong business. These people avoid all accountability, jeopardising the businesses people have worked hard to create. Because the Marlowe Family tries their best to treat all their various types of trades as Professional Businesses. The family operating various fronts from Bakeries to restaurants that they use to hide their payments.
How do you find us?
The Marlowe Family is always looking for new members and Associates but as of now there is no set place you may find us, The Marlowes prefer to be mobile and as such haven't set up a location yet but are actively searching for a suitable place they can call their own.
