The geopolitical struggle centered around the town of Redding, the primary supplier of gold ore in the region. New Reno became a key player in the struggle for control over the territory of Northern California. In 2241, the Mordino and Bishop families were the most influential. It left precious little room for neutrals and most Reno denizens ended up becoming a Made Man, a member of one of the families that controlled the city, just to survive. However, too many people and too few resources set the stage for an age-old power struggle. If it wasn't for the constant feuding between the four families that vie for control of the city, New Reno would have carved an empire out of the sands long ago. īy the 23rd century, New Reno was the largest populated area in Northern California. Isolated and partially shielded by mountains, Reno survived the Great War with little structural damage during the war (though looting and property damage have taken their toll), allowing it to be reborn as New Reno. HistoryĮven before the Great War, Reno had already the reputation of offering all manner of vice. The drug trade was dominated by the Mordino family that also controlled most of the prostitutes in New Reno around 2241, while alcohol was the domain of the Wright family. However, its primary export is entertainment: most drugs and alcohol in New California come from Reno drug labs. Ironically, it also maintains direct trade relations with Vault City, trading Redding gold ore for medical supplies. New Reno also acts as a major trading partner in the Big Circle brahmin trade, as well as being a major recipient of goods from The Den and slaves and chemicals from Vault City caravans. Jet is distributed from family supported dealers and independent people alike such as Jagged Jimmy J.
Tourists are eager to partake in the gambling, prostitution, and drug usage, particularly jet, which was developed near New Reno in the Stables by boy-genius Myron. However, aside from their internecine conflicts, the families generally keep order and make the city safe for tourists from the wastes, sending any troublemakers who disrupt the tourist trade to Golgotha, a burial site nearby.
New Reno has no official government or police force. The city is now run mostly by the Wrights, while also being contested by a new crime family, the Van Graffs. By 2281, all of the original families more or less retain their power with the exception of the Salvatores and Mordinos. The town in 2241 is run by four different families: the Mordinos, the Bishops, the Wrights, and the Salvatores. There is also a substantial weapons outfitter dubbed New Reno Arms. New Reno is home to the Golden Globes studio, the Jungle Gym, and the Cat's Paw brothel. The capital of sin, prominently known for its casinos, such as the Shark Club and the Desperado, and total freedom with an abundance of prostitutes, alcohol, and drugs.
