Mordino Turf is sometimes known as "Old Reno". This is the part of Reno that you go to when you want to be nostalgic about how Reno has been for the past twenty years.

The Mordinos controlled a majority of the city under the tyrannic rule of Lil Jesus Mordino and held most of the power in the city, since nearly 2/3 of the income went through their hands. Since then, the Bishops have taken a majority of the power, ever since Lil Jesus Mordino died and Paco Ramirez took over.

Mordino turf consists of the southern end of the city. The Mordinos have no obvious headquarters there, operating out of several smaller bars and warehouses. They still are a power to reckon with and have patrols moving through their sector, but these patrols aren't enough to keep out the gang activity that goes on there. Like New Reno was before the gang war, gangs move openly through Mordino turf and stake claims to smaller chunks of it. Overall, all this turf is still controlled by the Mordinos, and the Mordinos always have precedence over activities there. However, on a more local level, the smaller gangs have influence, and it's not uncommon to have to pay protection fees to not get harassed if you live there and have no means of defending yourself against a dozen armed gangers. Drug-pushers, murderers, rapists, thugs, muggers... they flourish in this section of the city, and here is where you need to watch your back at all times. These scum will stab you in the back for the chance at another hit of Jet.

When you're here, you're on your own. The Mordinos patrol here for their own interests and not for the citizens. Living here is also a crapshoot. More than half of the apartment buildings don't have owners and are run-down and falling apart. The water tastes of iron and rust, electricity is on a hit-or-miss basis (and the places with steady electricity are fought for tooth and nail), the roads look like swiss cheese, and the streetlights add a nice strobe effect to the night-time gang fights. This is the post-apocalyptic Reno that its citizens have come to know and love over the years.

Good luck living here.
