Preface
In the shadowed corners of Waterford, California, a secret world thrives—one where loyalty, cunning, and survival are the currency of life. This is the world of the Cartel Cats, a fierce and complex family bound not by blood, but by trust and the unbreakable bonds forged in the darkest alleys.

At the heart of this family is Felicia, the Village Ma. Wise, nurturing, and unshakable, Felicia is the matriarch all the cats turn to for guidance. She has seen the rise and fall of many, and her calm presence holds the fragile peace between powerful forces.

Among her closest are six formidable cats, each with a story shaped by the harsh realities of their world:

El Gato Blanco, the elusive leader, master of strategy and escape, whose sharp mind commands respect and fear alike.
Inspiration: Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán—legendary cartel boss, master of escapes and leadership.

La Sombra, the silent scout, moving unseen through the shadows, gathering secrets and watching for danger.
Inspiration: Cartel hitmen (“sicarios”)—stealthy, loyal, and always in the know.

El Tigre, the fierce protector, whose strength and loyalty defend the family at all costs.
Inspiration: Nemesio “El Mencho” Oseguera Cervantes—feared and respected cartel leader, known for power and unpredictability.

La Serpiente, the smooth negotiator, weaving webs of deception and persuasion to keep the cartel’s interests alive.
Inspiration: Cartel negotiators and corrupt officials—charming, persuasive, and skilled in manipulation.

El Zorro, the clever planner and tech expert, always calculating the next move to outwit their enemies.
Inspiration: Cartel “brains” and money launderers—intelligent strategists who keep operations running from the shadows.

La Pantera, the graceful assassin with a mysterious past, whose deadly skills are matched only by her quiet resolve.
Inspiration: Female cartel leaders (“Las Jefas”)—commanding respect in a male-dominated world, skilled and enigmatic.

Together, they navigate a perilous world of power struggles, betrayal, and survival. Each cat brings a unique strength, but it is Felicia’s wisdom that binds them—reminding them that even in the darkest nights, there is hope, and sometimes, a real life hero.

I have a dick with a badge and a bad f****** attitude controlling my every goddamn word so if some of this is a little bit off please forgive me for this current moment at least I haven't snapped yet.
