Basic Character Information
Born Lucinda Madeline Straccis, the second child of Angelo Straccis Jr and Jocelyn Riley.
She works as the head Chef in her mother's restaurant.
By far Lucie's strongest relationship within her family is with her sister Jacinta, who is only two years younger than her. The two were inseparable growing up, and to this day Jacinta is the only one who can calm Lucie down.
She has one child, her daughter Nora, but is far from being maternal. In fact her elder sister Isabelle has even suggested that Rats are more maternal than her - and they have a tendency to eat their young.

Personality
Stubborn and often times violent, Lucinda gets a kick out of causing obscene amounts of damage to both people and property. She can be quite explosive in nature but is easily defused by her family, particularly her sisters. She's not maternal in the slightest, and is far from being good at showing emotion. But above all her loyalties lie with her family.
Family
Straccis Family History
In the mid eighteen hundreds the Straccis family migrated from their expansive vineyard in Italy to an apartment block in New York, America. While the reason for their move seems to have been lost in translation, it�s told that Marie Straccis � the presiding matriarch of the family � refused to leave with her two sons and cursed them so that the first born in each Straccis line would, from then on, be female. Other sources simply claim she threw her boots at the young men and spat at their feet.
The men raised their families in a strictly Italian-American neighbourhood, all the while keeping their noses clean and their children off the streets. However, in the early nineteen hundreds it all changed for their small clan. During WWI Antoni and Horatio Straccis were drafted and they�re children began to mix with some of the tougher kids in an effort to prove their own strengths in a world gone mad. It was during this time that thirteen year old James Straccis met Claudia Tregose, the eldest daughter of one of the most prominent Crime Lords in the country.
For nine decades the Straccis family has been one of the most influential families in America. Not afraid to mix their blood, they�ve become a combination of the wealthiest criminal families in the world � combining the families of Crime Lords from Russia and Ireland along with their Italian heritage. In the 1930�s the Five Families were formed and New York was split into equal parts for each ruling family, James Straccis becoming one of the Five bosses when Don Tregose died suddenly in his home. They kept their seat as one of the reigning families and while they dealt with business, they always managed to keep their name out of the papers when bad news circulated.
This changed in 2006 with the death of Angelo Straccis Jr, the last Don of the Straccis family. In a move that shocked his fellow Dons, Angelo handed his title to his eldest daughter (Isabelle Straccis Falcone) and not his son Nicholas. However with the assistance of her sisters, Isabelle has set out to prove that they can be just as tough and seems intent on bringing the Five Families to their knees.
