The Jack of Clubs
Blair Springhill (a.k.a. Jack of Clubs)
Background:
Blair Springhill is the cocky, self-proclaimed genius behind the Jacks, a high-tech gang operating out of Liberty Village, Toronto. Born and raised in the city, Blair grew up surrounded by both the old-school crime families and the tech boom that transformed Liberty Village into a tech hub. Always quick to mock the “old guard” criminal families like the Ruso and Malone families, Blair sees himself as the future of crime—one who doesn't rely on brute force or outdated methods, but on cutting-edge technology and information warfare.
Despite his young age, Blair quickly rose to prominence within Toronto’s underworld thanks to his mastery of hacking, cybercrime, and the ability to stay several steps ahead of law enforcement. Blair runs the Jacks with an iron fist, but unlike traditional gang leaders, he favors brains over brawn, using data theft, blackmail, and tech espionage to cement his power. He built his crew from a mix of hackers, engineers, and street-level enforcers, all of whom admire Blair for his innovative approach to crime, though many see him as arrogant and overly confident.
While he has no respect for the old-school mobsters who run Toronto’s underworld, Blair understands the need to play along—for now. But he secretly harbors ambitions to undermine them and take over once his gang has gained enough influence.
Personality: Blair is cocky, arrogant, and insufferably smug. He’s constantly convinced that his “new wave” of tech-based crime is superior to the old-school methods of the crime families who rely on force, intimidation, and tradition. He openly mocks the Ruso Family and the Malones, seeing them as relics of a bygone era. Blair's confidence borders on recklessness, as he believes he's untouchable thanks to his technological edge. His belief in the superiority of technology over tradition often blinds him to the value of the human element in crime.
He is also ruthlessly pragmatic—loyalty means little to him unless it benefits his goals, and he’s more than willing to cut ties or betray allies if it advances his position. Blair’s ambition is driven by a need to prove that the new breed of criminal—those like him who leverage technology—are the future of the underworld. However, his arrogance sometimes leads him to underestimate his opponents, especially those from more traditional crime families who still hold significant power.
