Anthony was born 1975 in London, England. After his parents were killed, he adopted himself into a wealthy family known as the Goslings. He eventually went to law school after High School and became a radio show host, gaining much popularity. During his time in law school, Anthony met a woman, an education major named Sunny, who was vacationing in England from Italy and quickly became obsessed with Anthony because he was British and looked like a Beatle. Mere weeks later, Sunny was pregnant. Oops!
In June, Sunny gave birth to their daughter, Caroline, and Anthony made it his word that he would guard his daughter with his own life. Years later in 1995, Anthony was falsely accused for a scandal across the radio show's studio, which ended up getting him fired. Sunny, now believing that Anthony was guilty despite no evidence he was involved, divorced with him and took Caroline with her. Anthony suddenly found the Crimson Gem, which he had been looking for in his youth. as a result, his soul and a separate one hosted his body, with one side remaining the same while the other was fueled by the gem and gave homicidal tendencies. What happens next is currently unknown up until Anthony's death.
