If he mentions a background check to make sure he's not a cop, he'll get a good laugh from the capo. He'll earn the nickname "funny boy."
The mobs are inherently isolationist in nature, don't take well to Displaced interference now that there's enough information about them out in public about them. They work from low level up, and part of proof of loyalty is ensuring that whoever they recruit will be working in favor of the mob, itself. It's a unit. That means they won't take favorably to Nate recruiting from their ranks—or even outright saying he'll recruit from their ranks. He'd be seen as a usurper who'd be disrupting their business if he intends to use mob resources for personal reasons. While it's certainly possible for him to do so in the future (depending on how he works his way up), he'd need to first earn his keep and then approach that claim in a way that would benefit the Riverside mob.
If he does go ahead and say he wants to recruit from them, the capo will send the message up and not take kindly to the insinuation. The backlash may even hit Red Wings, as it'll be seen as the Displaced trying to infiltrate the Riverside mob. While we think this is interesting, we're also not certain that this is where you mean to go with this plot! So we'll leave it to you. If you want to change his response to what he wants, let us know, but if you want to move forward with it, please make sure to loop the Red Wings' gang (Gee and Alison) back into it so they know that what Nate does at the casino may potentially have some outreaching effects on the business!
As far as the mercenaries go, getting base information on them may not be terribly difficult, but it depends on what Nate's looking for! Even the low level goons at the casino will know that Simone Durcell is looking to tie the mob to the mercenaries, but with the current state of things, there's no way that they can afford them. There will be some gossip about Durcell's "big movement in the mob," but there won't be any solid details on who the mercenaries are or how that would move forward. It'll be up to Nate to take some direction there depending on what he wants.
His assignment will be pretty boring for now—working in the casino and making wins for the house two nights a week. He'll be able to keep 10% of his earnings, so the better he does the more money he'll make.
Let us know if there are any questions, or how you'd like to move forward!
