Antonio De La Rosa

==Personal Information==
====Appearance====
Antonio is a very effeminate male, his wardrobe primarily consists of women's clothing and he is regularly seen in a variety of skimpy outfits. He is a fan of the colours black and red, with common staples of his ensembles being a spiked collar with an inverted pentagram and fishnets. 
He has pale ivory skin and medium length black hair which he has dyed red at the front. He is a fan of intense makeup looks, regularly seen wearing eyeliner, nail polish, lipstick and glitter eyeshadows. Those who interact with him would also notice he appears more kine than most, if it weren't for the aura of his blood potency it would be nearly impossible to tell. 
His body and internal organs seem to function as if he were actually alive, he breaths, sweats and perhaps most bizarrely, has a heartbeat. He is also seen regularly indulging in kine food and drink. Deava familiar with the power combination of Majesty and Vigour called the Night Life devotion, will easily realize the origin of this, and note he is particularly talented with it.
====Personality ====
Antonio is a quick-witted, sassy and sarcastic prankster. He doesn't care what other people think of him and is known to deflect criticism with his vulgar sense of humour, most commonly taking the form of dirty jokes and innuendos.
He projects a confident persona, acting in a flirtatious and flippant manner, while simultaneously avoiding being assigned any sort of responsibility. He is very aware of how attractive he is (Striking Looks ••••) and often looks down on other kindred for their appearance. While this makes him seem callous to some, those who have got to know him discover it is more of a defence mechanism, and a more sensitive side is hidden under the surface.
He is fiercely loyal to his friends and will back them up if they need him without thought of personal safety, and will see justice dealt to anyone who wrongs his inner circle. He struggles to convey his emotions and hides his true feelings behind multiple walls, laughing off the multiple misfortunes slowly chipping away at his humanity.
====Mortal World====
Antonio was born in Potenza, Italy on Thursday, 23 February 1989; two years after his brother Ivailo. His father was from Bulgaria and moved to Italy after meeting his mother on a holiday. His early life was rather uneventful until he started to mature, while his brother was on the soccer team, he joined dance classes. 
His father slowly grew more and more distant the more Antonio's effeminate behaviour developed. They had multiple fights and although Ivalio would often try and defend his younger brother his father remained unsupportive and was often derogatory. His mother would comfort him saying that his father would come around eventually, but that day would never come. 
He moved out at the age of 18 ( which is very young for an Italian family) and got involved in a sex and drug ring, run by a crime lord named Salvatore Vitale in Naples. Antonio started featuring in adult films and working at Salvatore's strip club to earn money, regularly acting as a drug dealer and prostitute on the side to earn more money for his boss. Antonio changed his last name to his mother's maiden name De La Rosa to distance himself from his father, and he hasn't spoken to his kine family since he left in late 2007.

== Opinions Of Family Members==
====Kine Family====
Nikul Rivera
Antonio's kine father, of whom he would rarely speak of. He wasn't accepting of Antonio's more effeminate nature, and would constantly ridicule him to act more like his older brother Ivailo, often resulting in yelling and violence. Their relationship was extremely strained as a result and as soon as Antonio was 18, he left and moved to Naples. He lives in Potenza, Italy with Antonio's mother Silvia. 
Silvia De La Rosa
Antonio remembers his kine mother quite fondly. She was always supportive of him and tried to convince him not to move out, but Antonio couldn't handle his father's disdain anymore. He regrets having to leave her behind, but genuinely believes his family is better off without him there. At the very least he isn't constantly causing confrontations with his father.
Ivailo Rivera
Antonio's older brother by 2 years, he was always the family favourite. Antonio looked up to Ivalio and appreciated his efforts to defend him, even if they often fell on deaf ears. Their relationship was strained due to the pressure applied to them both by their father. Ivalio would be 35 now so Antonio imagines he has likely moved out, but he hasn't heard from him and assumes he wants nothing to do with him.
====Kindred Family====
Salvatore Vitale (Invictus)
Antonio's Sire whom he lives with in Naples. Salvatore runs a sex and drug ring, exploiting several mortals to work for him. In 2012, he embraced both his favourite employees on the same night, Antonio and Cienna. Antonio is afraid of Salvatore and does as he says, giving over his profits to his sire every month.
Cienna Florentino (The Carthian Movement)
Antonio's long time work colleague and now kindred sister. They have always gotten along like close siblings, and often back each other up. She lives with Antonio and Salvatore in Naples. 
Teo Dražić (The Carthian Movement)
Antonio's Kindred Uncle who lives in Milan. Antonio gets on better with him than he does his own sire, affectionately referring to him as Uncle Teo. He has repeatedly stood up for Antonio against his sire Salvatore. 
Jana Šiljan (Invictus)
Antonio's Kindred Aunty. He calls her Aunty Jana and she has offered him advice and an ear to listen on multiple occasions. She has kept many secrets for him and helped him come to terms with being a vampire. 
Donata Toscani (Invictus)
Antonio has never met her, as she was both born and embraced in Croatia.
Klara Altera (Invictus)
Antonio didn't know her for long, he was introduced to her after his embrace. While she approved of Cienna, she was less impressed with Antonio. She was cold and judging of him and left back for Rome shortly after meeting the pair. Klara blames Antonio for Cienna leaving the Invictus.
Ksenija Stojanović (Ordo Dracul)
She moved somewhere in Sicilia and no one has heard from her in a long time. It is unknown if she has gone into torpor or if she was perhaps destroyed by hunters.
Ludmila Petrović (Invictus)
Antonio has never met her, as she travelled to Greece before his embrace. He does know that she lives in Lamia. She spent a period infiltrating The Carthian Movement there but was exposed as an Invictus spy.
