## **Biography**

Adolfo, also known as Rudy, grew up in a household where both of his parents hailed from Sicily. His mother had immigrated to the United States as a child, while his father had entered the country illegally after jumping ship in Canada. Despite his father's status, he worked as a construction worker and provided a decent standard of living for the family.

Rodolfo's parents often argued, resulting in frequent fights that he became normal to witnessing. However, amidst the clashes at home, Adolfo soon found his safe haven. The outside world. Rain-soaked jogs and peaceful walks became his refuge, providing an escape from the yelling at home.

One of Rodolfo's regular destinations was a coffee shop near their house. Each visit, he observed a group of well-dressed men arriving in luxurious cars. In his imagination, Rudie envisioned himself leading their seemingly extravagant lives. However, he knew deep down that such a reality would forever remain out of reach.

Adolfo struggled with a bad case of Tourette syndrome and dyslexia. His struggles in school led to bullying from peers and the label of being a "slow learner" from teachers. He experienced setbacks in his education, being held back from grade advancement on multiple occasions.

At the young age of 16, Rudolph made the decision to drop out of school and join a small gang called the Downtown Hoodlums in Coqaulois. However, his stint with the gang was short-lived, as he soon recognized the need for a different path in his life. With a desire for personal growth and a sense of duty, Rudolph made the life-changing choice to join the military in an attempt to truly figure out who he is.

For the next six years, Rudolph dedicated himself to serving in the military, undergoing training and participating in various missions. The military provided him with discipline, structure, and valuable life experiences. After his service, Rudolph returned to his hometown, only to discover that the gang he had been associated with during his youth had been apprehended and imprisoned during his time in the military.

At the age of 35, Adolfo was picked by Angelo to join The Shadow Hand and their reigns, where he remained in for 20 years.
