The Sevens
Pneu-York City's most notorious gang. Their leader is a mob boss known as Mr. Pinstripe.
They have an ongoing deal with Baba Sinclair to supply her with untraceable alcohol for her speakeasy and keep the cops out of her hair.
Predictably, they communicate messages and threats through playing cards, specifically the sevens:
- The Seven of Hearts means the recipient is in no trouble with the gang.
- The Seven of Diamonds is an extortion threat: pay up or else.
- The Seven of Clubs is a threat of physical violence.
- The Seven of Spades indicates that the recipient has betrayed the gang and is to be killed, roughly equivalent to the pirates' black spot.
Trick is a former member who's in a fair bit of trouble with Mr. Pinstripe after cheating his way out of a gambling debt. He's "waiting for [his] Seven of Spades any day now."
