Description
Serious Business Set

A three piece for the Heavy Weapons Guy. Suitable for: mobsters, bank managers, henchmen, wall street high fliers, minions of evil geniuses and all individuals of class and distinction.

The intention with this set is to create a new look for the HWG which expands his character, while not contradicting the essentials of his personality. The trope which I mainly worked from was that of the Gentleman Thug. The character who though he commits violent acts and isn't the quickest thinker, adheres to the trapping and conduct of a gentleman. (Elements of Mr. Croup and Mr. Vandemar from Neil Gaiman's Neverwhere kept creeping into my mind)

Does creating a high class look for the heavy step too far into the Spy's territory? For me the spy is more than just a sharp suit and there is room for multiple characters to have a vintage, classy look. Also see 'Mobster Monday' from the Uber Update. No one is going to mistake a Heavy wearing the Serious Business Set for a spy. Though with the addition of a correctly painted Executioner's Hood, you could create a highly unconvincing fake spy...

Hopefully you think this set would be a worthwhile addition to the game. If so I would be very grateful if you were to upvote the items to increase the chance of this happening. Thank you.l
