| Character History |
Anthony "Big Tony" Luchesio
was born in 1922, in Palermo, Italy, into a poor family. He could only
watch helplessly as his father worked himself to death, as his mother
insisted that he be properly schooled. At his father's funeral, a very
modest, painful affair on a dark, rainy Thursday in 1939, he made himself
a promise. He would not live like his father had. He would not slave
day after day, only to see no results. He would become rich, and powerful,
and at that point, never work again. Less than two years later, he
was drafted into service to fight the evil capitalist Allied powers
in World War II. While at war, shortly after Italy changed sides, he
met an enlisted man from the Egyptian army, named Ahmet Ahrul, who
made him an offer he could not refuse. Ahmet offered Big Tony power,
money, women and more power, or at least the opportunity for these
things. Tony hastily accepted, not realizing what he had agreed to.
Ahmet had Tony work for several years as a drug pusher, an enforcer
and a loan shark.
In 1953, Ahmet decided to let Tony in on the big time, and embraced
him. Suddenly Tony was in control of his own enforcers, his own drug
pushers, his own small empire. Realizing that he would quickly become
competition for Ahmet, he parted ways with his sire and made his move,
to America. The competition in Chicago fell quickly, and Big Tony controlled
the town by the year 1987. In 1994, Ahmet summoned Tony back to Rome,
to aid in the defense against the Sabbat. Tony complied, and was quite
pleased to be seeing his sire and former boss after so many years.
However, upon his arrival in Rome, he was told that Ahmet had died
the night before, to save the Prince from a Sabbat trap. Tony, enraged,
set up business quickly. He flooded the streets with guns, giving them
to every person willing to shoot a Sabbat bastard. Word spread quickly
through the Sabbat, and they decided to try to raid one of his warehouses.
Wrong move. Tony killed 5 himself that night, and his boys made sure
that none made it out moving. He quickly gained the favor of the prince,
and one night, the Sabbat tried to take the prince out again. This
time, it was Big Tony who saved the prince, holding off the bastards
long enough for reinforcements to arrive and clean up. This continued
for several months and finally, the Sabbat are mostly gone from Rome.
At this point, Tony decided that it was time to move on, and asked
the prince where the fighting with the Sabbat was most fierce. The
prince replied that an old friend of his, Prince Nigel Wick, had been
having lots of problems in a little shithole called Melbourne, but
had been since replaced by some woman. Naturally, she had "fucked
up enough that she is losing the city." Tony declared Melbourne
his new home, and prepared to leave. The prince declared Big Tony Trustworthy
for his destructive actions against the Sabbat.
More recently, “Big” Tony has been seen on the streets
of Melbourne, aiding in the destruction of the Sabbat, and attempting
to keep the streets free of the Sabbat bastards. No more shall perish
to them, they must all be destroyed. He is often seen in the presence
of Jonah Spire. He owns BOOM’s Homestyle Italian Restaurante,
in Cocoa, and is often found there.
