Cicof Family
Every weapon Murder Inc moves overland passes through Cicof hands. Every assassin who needs to reach a remote target rides in a Cicof rig. The family is the organization's circulatory system, and the cargo they haul keeps the whole body alive.
Built from Diesel Jocks and Rovers, the Cicof family spreads wider than any other family in the Adherents of Betrayal. They are truckers, traders, and shippers who blend seamlessly into the overland transport networks that stitch the wastes together. Their rigs run legitimate cargo alongside concealed shipments of weapons and operatives, and no checkpoint inspector has ever found the difference. When the family needs to eliminate a problem along their routes, they handle it with the tools at hand. A chain, a bumper, and seventy miles of open road will solve most disputes.
The family's strength is its reach. Where other families control a specific territory or domain, the Cicof control the spaces between. They know every road, every shortcut, every dead stretch where a body could disappear under tire tracks without anyone noticing for weeks. They intercept trade lines when faction objectives demand it and restore them just as quietly when the job is done.
Initiation is the Road Rally. Oil is smeared across the new member's forehead, and the family celebrates through the night with the kind of raucous energy only road people understand. Staying awake until dawn is the rite of passage. If you drive the roads, you learn to outlast the dark.

Structure
The Cicof Family is composed largely of Diesel Jocks and Rovers who serve as truckers, traders, shippers, and smugglers. The family operates within the Adherents of Betrayal faction of Murder Inc, functioning as the organization's primary overland logistics network. Members are initiated through The Road Rally, a celebration where oil is smeared across the initiate's forehead and the group parties until dawn; staying awake through the entire night is considered a rite of passage for anyone who drives the roads.
Public Agenda
The Cicof Family exists to move things from one place to another without anyone knowing what was moved or who sent it. Their primary function is covert overland transportation: smuggling weapons and assassins to operational locations for Murder Inc, hauling cargo across the wastes undetected, and maintaining control over the trade routes they claim. When obstacles appear along those routes, the Cicof remove them, sometimes by negotiation and sometimes by chain.
History
The Cicof Family established itself as the overland transport backbone of Murder Inc, building a wide-spanning network of truckers and traders capable of moving cargo and people across the wastes without detection. Their expertise in covert transportation made them indispensable to the broader organization, as every weapon and assassin Murder Inc moves overland passes through Cicof hands.
The family's reputation grew beyond simple hauling. They developed methods for interrupting and seizing trade lines, eliminating problems that appear along their controlled routes, and executing targets through their signature brutality of dragging victims behind rigs by chain. Their operational reach extends across the wasteland, connecting Murder Inc's scattered operations through a network of roads and rigs that never stop moving.
