Johnny Sundown - il capo

Character Profile

Subject: Johnny ‘Sundown’ Affiliation: Elite Operative / Hitman for Hire

Full Name: [Unknown] Johnny

Moniker: “Sundown”
Other Aliases: “The Sunset Specialist”, “The Long Shadow”
Role: High-Level Executioner / Long-Range Specialist
Age in 1987: 58
Vibe: Old-school underworld class. He is the quiet before the storm—calm, impeccably dressed, and chillingly final

The Silhouette: Lean and straight-backed, Johnny carries the poise of a man who has never had to run from a fight because he’s always the one holding the vantage point.
The Face: Sharp, dignified features often obscured by shadow. His eyes are cold and steady, the eyes of a man who has watched the sun set on a thousand targets.
The Wardrobe: A sharp three-piece pinstripe suit, a crisp white shirt, and a dark, perfectly knotted tie. He is the best-dressed man in the room, even if he’s the last person you’ll ever see.
The Trademark Item: A signature fedora tilted forward, casting a deep, intentional shadow over his eyes.
The Location: Prefers rooftops or high vantage points overlooking Valient City at dusk. He likes to watch the city lights flicker on as his targets’ lights go out.

The Origin: A veteran of the “Old Guard” who refused to trade his suit for a tracksuit. Johnny earned his name by specializing in “permanent retirements” that occur precisely at the hour between dusk and darkness. He is a specialist for the Morettis when they need a hit to be silent, distant, and undisputed.
The Motivation: Precision and Silence. Johnny views his work as a craft. He doesn’t raise his voice, he doesn’t brag, and he never misses a beat. To him, a messy hit is a personal failure.
The Hook: “When Johnny shows up, the sun doesn’t just set—it stays down.”
The Threat: He makes sure that for his targets, “tomorrow is a luxury that’s officially off the table.”

Main Role: The Long Shadow (Passive). Johnny is a master of timing and positioning. Because he strikes when the light is failing, he is incredibly difficult to spot or pin down before the deed is done.
Specialist Skill: Long Range Contract (Active). Johnny doesn’t need to be in the room to end the conversation; he just needs a line of sight.
The Result: Once per game, Johnny may initiate a Hit attempt against any target Crew Member or Specialist currently in play, regardless of where they are on the board. This strike bypasses all standard movement or distance requirements.
Execution Difficulty (ED: 7): To successfully Whack Johnny ‘Sundown’, the attacker must spin an 8, 9, or 10. If the attacker spins a 1 through 7, Johnny simply melts into the shadows as night falls, remaining in play.
