Mr. Big is one of the main antagonists of the memelads universe, serving as the main villain of phases 5 and 6. He is the overarching antagonist of phases 1-4 serving as the Principal’s loan shark for the school.

Mr. Big is the boss of the D'Grasso family mafia. He runs his family with an iron fist, and sought out to become the most feared criminal in the world. Later, Mr. Big formed alliances with Kevin, Zemia, Rainbow, and others to acquire more power. He succeeded in becoming a powerful figure in the criminal underworld, but that wasn't enough for him. He built The Hypno-watch, made out of materials acquired on Rossko's home planet Ventora. After hypnotizing Zemia and Alucard, he obtained all of the matrix amulets, and defeated the Dimension Defenders. He then went on to take over the world.

With the Dimension Defenders out of the picture, Mr. Big rallies up all of the world's militaries to begin a galactic assault to soon take over the universe.

## Biography

### Early life

**Growing up**: Marius was born in Sicily, Italy in the year 1983. He spent his first few years there, until his parents got a divorce, and Marius's mom took him to Miami, Florida. As Marius gets older, he becomes a bartender, bouncer, and convenience store clerk to help his mother earn money, but when he turned 17, he moved away from the US, and back to Italy, where he reunites his father Antonio D'Grasso. Antonio teaches Marius the family business, eventually becoming a Caporegime.

**Moving to America**: When Marius becomes 18, much of the D'Grasso Mafia moves to Stonkstown, Florida for better business, which angers the Cuban Cartel. A few years pass by and Marius turns 21, and Antonio hosts a birthday party. Cartel members would ambush the party, killing several D'Grasso soldiers, and a few caporegimes. Antonio makes a peace offering, which allowed the Cartel to have 50% of the D'Grasso territory.

### Present times

**Memelads Middleschool**: Marius doesn't do much during the events of Memelads middleschool. Only discovering of it's location, and information after his spy in the police department sends back a report claiming that the school is a safe distance from his territory.

**The Homie Families**: When Marius finds out that a new Memelads brand High school is being constructed on his territory, he takes it upon himself to meet with the principal. He explains to the principal that the location of the school is bad for business, and offers him a deal. For a percentage of the school’s profits, he promises to keep the school safe from competitors, and his violent gang members who are stationed near the school, to which the principal reluctantly agrees. During this time, Marius overthrows his father, (who previously tried to assassinate him). Marius hosts a successful coup and he adopts the moniker of Mr. Big. Years later, the high school finishes construction, and Mr. Big hosts a party for the staff. Mr. Big’s wife and a few cronies attend the party. All seems to be going well until the Cartel shows up and shoots up the party. Unfortunately, Mr. Big’s wife ends up getting killed by a Cartel member, which leads to Mr. Big swearing revenge on the Cartel. Mr. Big leaves the school alone for the next couple years, and enters the big picture again once the former student Zemia gains power against the principal and starts her own school.

**Memelads Highschool**: As part of the principal and Mr. Big's agreement, Mr. Big and his cronies must destroy Zemia's new school, named "Shooting Star". However his attempt was unsuccessful and Zemia's school remains open. A little while after, a soldier in the Stonkstown mafia would plan assassinate Mr. Big to rid him of his throne. His assassination would be successful, and Mr. Big dies. However a scientist who felt bad for him, would bring him back to life with additional cybernetic enhancements. As a result, Mr. Big would somehow become even more vile, probably due to loosing his soul. A now power hungry Mr. Big, searches the galaxy for ways to become stronger, and soon enough he learns that a Ventora Root can be used as an ingredient to create a powerful weapon, the Hypno-watch. With the Hypno-watch, Mr. Big hypnotizes Zemia, and another former student Alucard. With their aid, he finds the Matrix amulets, and one of the two rings of power, becoming a godlike threat to the Dimension Defenders. Zemia finds a way to break free from her hypnosis, and warns the D. Defenders of the coming threat, to which Mr. Big responds by trying to kill Zemia. He fails to kill Zemia, and Alucard breaks free from his hypnosis, and joins the D. Defenders. Outraged, Mr. Big decides to take matters into his own hands. He successfully raids Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia and uses them as hostages against the D. Defenders. Mr. Big states that if the D. Defenders do not give him the second ring of power, he will use the nuclear weapons he possesses to nuke North and South America. The D. Defenders create a fake ring to trick Mr. Big. However this would prove to be unsuccessful, as Mr. Big finds out about the phony ring. Mr. Big would proceed to launch every nuke into the Americas, destroying all but Stonkstown. He defeats the Dimension Defenders in a climactic battle, and takes over the world.
