Origin
Most of Antonio’s life is a mystery after showing up on an orphanage’s doorstep at the age of 5 with not knowledge of how he got there or anything beyond that period of time. During his time in the orphanage, he became good friends with a mutant girl named Jenny. They were nearly inseparable for 3 years until a man named Vincent Franchetti came to the orphanage to take him away.
Vincent recruited Antonio into the Franchetti Mafia family where his dark soul began to flourish. Antonio quickly grow a taste of the Mafia life, living in the fast lane with a taste of chaos, death and women. By the age of 15 he gained the title of Antonio “the Grim Reaper” as a hitman for the Franchetti family. He earned the title due to his ruthless dark desire to wreck havok upon whom ever crosses his path. The underworld labeled him 2nd most dangerous person alive, right next to Frank Castle.
With Antonio working for the Franchetti family they were on the top chain and made Vincent the new Don of New York. Antonio kept in close contact with his friend Jenny whom he became romantically envolved with. They kept their relationship secret for months due to Vincent dislike toward mutants and his obsessional fear of losing Antonio to anyone.
Vincent became aware of their secret relationship after he bugged several possessions of Antonio. The act of mistrust with a mutant enraged Vincent, however he couldn’t take it out on Antonio in fear he would lose his prized possession so he kidnapped Jenny. Vincent twisted from rage and fear video taped her execution sending the recording to Antonio as a reminder that he is owned property of the Franchetti family.
Antonio was overwhelmed with grief, pain and anger. The darkness in his soul sturred, but he was still a made man.. there were rules even though the Don himself broke a very powerful one. Antonio would get his revenge but he had to play the cards right without dirtying his own hands.
Antonio approached the Italian lords of NewYork, showed them the video and announced a simple solution to the problems to come from this incident. The lords listened to Antonio out of respect and fear. They all voted to follow Antonio’s plan to rid NewYork of the Insane Don.
The plan was simple but dangerous. Not many would have the balls to call for a meeting with the Punisher without fearing of dying themselves. However, Antonio didnt care if he died as long as Vincent would get whats coming to him. He and the Punisher hooked up for a one time only truce.
Antonio walked into the Franchetti family compound calmly, but those he passed knew something was going to happen. The amount of suppressed anger, the chaotic darkness in his soul wanting to taste blood. Once inside Vincent’s mansion he pulled his twin berettas the sure sign the “Grim Reaper” was about to unleash his wrath and all hell is to pay. Once the gunfire started the Punisher rammed his battle van through the side of the mansion to join the fray.
Together with the Punisher, they blasted their way to the top of the latter.. into the Don’s office. Antonio smiled more wicked than ever, Vincent was caught in the glare of Antonio.. as if his soul was being pulled to hell. The Punisher turned around and walked off “He’s all yours, your time will come one day too Antonio. Enjoy it while you can.”
Antonio put a sawed-off shot gun to Vincent’s cheek, “Time to face the devil Vinny” He pulled the trigger blasting off the front of Vincent’s face. He laid the shotgun on the desk and walked out calmly whistling to himself.
Antonio returned to the Lords of NewYork where they pleaded for him to become the next Don of New York. He refused them wishing only control of all Franchetti family’s assets and the clubing district in downtown NewYork. The Lords agreed without question.
A few years passed, Antonio opened a club called “The Darkness” which quickly turned to one of the most popular clubs in New York. He continued his life as one of the most powerful mob bosses in New York, however he was not brutal he did not kill unjustified and any of those under him were to do the same or they would face Antonio’s wrath.
