**Anthony Scelto** was an Escribe, former resident of the Blue Condominium and that grew up at the St. Menefreda Orphanage. As said by Dante in the 5th episode of Deconjuration, Anthony was the humorous in the orphanage, who always liked to play pranks and play with other children.

## Appearance

Anthony was a light-skinned man with straight hair and whitish eyes. He had his body covered in numerous tattooed texts and had several papers glued to his body. The main papers that are most visible showed the words "*PLAGUE*" (on his forehead) and "*PAIN*" (held on his left hand). Anthony carried with him a transverse bag with papers similar to those of his body and a cracked human skull, which belonged to another body that made use of as "Tirigan", Álvaro Augusto, with a chain that passed through this crack and connects it to his waist.

In his right arm, several papers could be seen, only now with "qualities" written to be able to strengthen himself, such as "*FAST*", "*RICH*", "*STRENGTH*", "*LUCK*", "*RESISTANT*" and "*HAPPINESS*".

## Personality

Anthony appeared to be an intelligent man and showed willingness to teach, since in his other life as Tirigan, he was a teacher. He had a lot of occultist knowledge, especially the Big Symbol. He also seemed to have a disturbed mood, laughing in inappropriate situations. Just as in childhood, he liked to play games with his prey through rituals about the knowledge of the Other Side.

## Biography

### Past

After the death of his parents, Anthony was raised by his grandparents, Nestor and Graça Scelto, at the Blue Condominium in Canadense. He befriended Leonardo Gomes during this period, playing with him and making Frederico Mare's life a hell, going to the St. Menefreda Orphanage after helping Álvaro to kill his grandparents, he then spent his childhood there, along with Dante, Nubi, Gal and other childs. During his childhood, Anthony enjoyed playing games and playing pranks on the other children and orphanage staff along with Rana. After the fire caused by a "game" from The Host in an attempt to kill Kian, Anthony eventually becomes an occultist with great knowledge and joins the Escribes, as well as some other residents who survived the tragedy. In January 2020, Álvaro sends a letter to a recipient named "Virgílio" with the message "I did it", giving the impression that he did some deed, which was to transfer his mind to Anthony’s body, committing suicide with his original body in the process.

### Other Side Class

Looking for the elevator key, Arthur, Beatrice and Kaiser enter a dusty library and near the entrance, Beatrice finds a paper attached to a bookcase with "Mirror" written on it. Turning the paper, she sees a Symbol and simultaneously a second Beatrice enters the place while the door locks strangely. A laugh echoes through the library, welcoming their new "students" and if they want to leave their class, they must answer a series of riddles about the Other Side Elements.

#### First Element

> The first is hidden inside all of you.
>
> Anthony
>
>

After theorizing about blood, trauma and secrets, Arthur picks up a book in the biology session, starting to flip through it until he finds a model of the human muscular structure making him remembering the Black Death Carrion. Realizing they are on the right track, Kaiser finds a human skeleton model that forms a spiral coming from his skull. The voice congratulates them, presenting the first of the elements, the **Death**.

#### Second Element

> If you ignore me for too long, you’ll probably lose control completely.
>
> Anthony
>
>

As Kaiser searches for the answer in the books of the self-help section, Arthur grabs a cookbook by opening on the page of his favorite meal, a blood-stained palm appears and blood begins to overflow from the book. The voice congratulates them, presenting the second of the elements, the **Blood**.

#### Third Element

> Knowledge can be dangerous. Learning everything about a subject may n. Perhaps the safest is to learn a little about all subjects.

As soon as the voice ends, one of the Beatrices opens an encyclopedia, the letters begin to shuffle and become unrecognizable symbols. The voice congratulates them, presenting the third of the elements, the **Knowledge**.

#### Fourth Element

> How can so many books have the same weight?
>
> Anthony
>
>

Kaiser and Arthur think about how much books a cell phone can store without changing its weight. Kaiser picks up his phone and a book is already open on his screen. Out of nowhere, several books pass by, several glitches happen on the screen and a Symbol appears, one that Kaiser already knows. The voice congratulates them again, presenting the fourth of the elements, the **Energy**.

#### Fifth Element

> Blood, Death, Knowledge, Energy, congratulations, my students. You almost passed my test, just one more element remaining, the most important, but this one I give you the answer...
>
> Anthony

As the agents prepare for the final riddle, a male figure covered in tattoos with papers glued to his body, reveals himself behind a Beatrice holding a knife to her neck and slits her throat as he whispers "The Fear" causing her body to disintegrate and become a puddle of flesh on the ground. He says goodbye by putting two papers on a shelf, a white paper with "Anthony" written on it and a black one with "Dissipate" written on it, then disappearing leaving only yellowish sparks.

### Final Day of Deconjuration

When Bruno explains to the agents about the situation that is occurring in the Blue Condominium, he mentions that in the 18th episode of Deconjuration, that "*... Gal is preparing the ending, We don’t know what he’s intending to do, but he’s with the kids, Anthony took them, the Tirigan...*". With this explanation it is understood that at that time the title of "Tirigan" was from Anthony.

Anthony then, frees Sukkalgir, and makes her fight the Order agents. The creature, however, had as a skill a disturbing scream, which eventually made Anthony go crazy, hiding in a corner laughing bizarrely, and later, being executed by a shot of Luciano.

## Rituals

**Mirror Ritual:** Upon entering a library on the first floor of the St. Menefreda Orphanage, in one of the shelves, there was a white paper with **"MIRROR"** written on one side and with a Blood Symbol on the other, and when Beatrice checks the other side of the paper a duplicate arises, acting, thinking and having the same memories being a perfect copy of the original. Upon being seriously injured, the duplicate becomes a mass of flesh and blood that eventually turns into a red puddle on the ground resembling a dead Blood Zombie.

**Teleport Ritual:** After gluing the papers to the bookcase, Anthony bids farewell and disappears, leaving only yellowish sparks at the site similar to how Clara disappeared.

**Feel Through Ritual:** After revealing himself, Anthony sticks two papers on a shelf before disappearing, one of them being a white paper written "Anthony". When Arthur Cervero turns the paper to see what’s on its verse, he feels strange, and it’s only seen again in the 14th episode of Deconjuration, where, by removing Arthur’s overcoat to heal him, the symbol of this ritual tattooed on his back is discovered, emanating cursed energy.

**Illusion Ritual:** By going the second time on the Scelto's House, the D-Force members find a Symbol that made them fall into an illusion, the one that made them believe that Anthony’s grandparents were still alive.

**Uncontrollable Rage Ritual:** While exploring the Devilish Mansion, the agents enter a room with a double lock revealing a room of a teenager and searching the room, his diary was found along with a paper with an Occultist Symbol on one side and **"HATRED"** written in the other side. About 15 years before its discovery, Frederico finds that same paper glued to his door and, when he is turned, he fills himself with great hatred and murders his parents.

**"Graduation" Ritual:** By exploring the Corridors, Bruno takes one of Anthony’s papers, where it was written "**GRADUATION**", causing Anthony to speak through him while Bruno seemingly loses consciousness.
