	Edward’s morals are flexible, molded by necessity rather than principle. He believes in the value of loyalty, yet only to those who have proven themselves capable and unwavering under pressure. Despite his merciless approach, he is pragmatic enough to know when alliances are useful, making him an occasionally dependable partner, albeit one who never lets his guard down.

	Edward, formally known as '''Edward I''', often known as "The Butcher," is a bold and ruthless figure in the Los Santos underworld, known for his temper, calculated ruthlessness, strategy, and a reputation for breaking even the most resilient opponents. He was born Edward McBane in the small fisher village of Durness in Scotland, but to shield his family from his criminal reputation, he adopted the surname McHaggis. From an early age, Edward was drawn to crime, engaging in petty theft, extortion, and robberies, all of which quickly caught the attention of local gangs.

	By 22 years old, his rising notoriety attracted the interest of the [[Cosa Nostra]], including the [[Corleonesi]], who invited him to Italy, where he began his formal career in organized crime. It was here he met [[Giuseppe Marcano]], a member of the Corleonesi who became both his mentor and partner, guiding Edward in the art of organized crime and afterwords becoming good friends. Edward did many jobs with Giuseppe including extortion, torture and contract killing. In Italy, Edward also met [[Luciana McHaggis\|Luciana]], an Italian woman who would later become his wife.

	Edward’s empire started to crumble. Desperate to stabilize his operation, he approached Jim. With Jim’s help, they began sourcing airfreight cargo to Edward’s hangar at Fort Zancudo, one of the few assets still under his control. It gave him some breathing room, but not nearly enough. Edward’s credibility at the Big Four’s table was dwindling.		Edward’s empire started to crumble. Desperate to stabilize his operation, he approached Jim.

	Seeing his old friend stressed and cornered, Billy suggested they take a break. Together, they visited the Los Santos Car Meet where they encountered 29-year-old [[Jeffrey Cooper]], a mechanic looking for work. To make extra cash, Edward had ~~Jeff~~ help on a few cars and later showed him his auto shop. Billy, intrigued by the young man, took Jeff to see his private car collection housed in a repurposed government facility at the Ron Alternates Wind Farm.

	There, the two were ambushed by a biker gang. They escaped unharmed and reported the incident to Edward, who identified the attackers as members of the Alamo Hellraisers—the same bikers who had turned on Claymore. In response, Edward initiated Jeff as a prospect in Claymore MC. That afternoon, with Billy’s help, they launched a strike on Sandy Shores, shooting up the area in a show of strength without causing fatalities. The message was clear: Claymore was not dead.
