Personality:
He's reserved and responsible. Despite everything, any promises made by him will be kept. Sometimes, there can be an issue with expressing himself- whether that be emotions, or opinions. Most of Anthony's conflicting opinions go unheard because he'd rather struggle in silence, then cause a bigger problem. Anthony is prone to self-pity, lying, and victimising himself. When interacting with new people (or just in new environments), if there’s nothing you can offer him… he can be very awkward, uncomfortable even. If you’re not “useful”, 9 times out of 10, Anthony wouldn’t care to talk to you. When introducing new things into his life, he usually holds a very close-minded approach. However, due to him hating confrontation, he would most likely go along anyway (reluctantly). Another thing is that Anthony is quite opportunistic and can be extremely manipulative (while not knowing it)- most times out of not, he’s with you because he wants something from you, and as soon as he gets what he wants, he leaves. Regardless, Anthony is capable of forming actual emotional connections and close relationships with people… they just might be for all the wrong reasons. An additional peice of information is that Anthony strongly values family, and the idea of forming a family based environment. With this in mind, Anthony can be quite protective.

Spoilers:
To himself and others, Anthony is a liar. He forms different personas to use around other people to emotionally manipulate others. With everyone he interacts with, there is a purpose to use them behind it. Anthony doesn't know he is manipulative; he believes that this is simply a trait called, "adaptability" is a way to "take full advantage of your surroundings." He believes that he is simply being resourceful. Sometimes, Anthony gets so caught up in his lies, that he's unsure about who he really is. He starts to believe in his own lies, and the line between how he really feels becomes extremely blurred. I have spent time on this character for a long time, but his "true personality" is still somewhat hard for me to map out in words, and for the sake of surprise, I'd prefer not to explain it here. You will find out about it eventually- keep an open mind.

Background:
Anthony's childhood consisted of raising his younger siblings and himself. As a child, he was forced to grow up and develop a more survival based mindset. His parents, while in custody of their kids, they were unreliable and barely did their job as parents. His mom was a drugged-out heroin addict, and his father was a violent drunk who came home every week or two to ransack the home for things that would be of use to him while expecting to be treated with the utmost respect. With such unstable parents, Anthony tried his best to provide a stable home environment for his siblings by getting a job early on and taking on the responsibilities usually reserved for that of a parent. He made them meals, helped them prepare for school, and tried his best to give them good life advice based on his own experiences- which being that he was young... wasn't a lot. searching for a job. Though he has been doing some illegal work on the street involving older men, as soon as he was old enough to get a legal job... he did just that. The pay wasn't much, but it was better than nothing. After a few weeks of working, he was given the opportunity to start selling drugs and being that he desperately needed money for his younger siblings, he took up the opportunity and has been selling drugs ever since.

A million odd jobs all over the place. He moves frequently but stays in contact with a select few.
