Name: Anton Grigoriy
Affiliation: Foot Clan (New York)
Age: 29
Height: 6'1"
Weight: 203lbs
Description:
Anton is a tall, fairly well built, light skinned businessman. His eyes are a faded gray-green set in a well-defined face, topped with short, almond brown hair. The lobe of his left ear is pierced by an onyx stud, and a web of scars radiates outward from his right cheekbone, which looks slightly uneven compared to the other. While not lean like the ninjas, he is relatively well built and defined, his chest, upper arms, and legs pocked with scars from glass, knives, and even some burns.
Clothing:
Anton typically can be found wearing a suit of some kind, well fitted and tailored to not hamper him. His preference leans towards three-button pinstripes in dark blue, black, or browns that compliment his hair. He is extremely fond of his ties, of which he has a wide variety that usually compliment his eyes (blues, greens, silvers). The shirts under the suit are usually white, pale blue, or pale green. The middle finger of his right hand is dominated by a pale blue-green sea stone set in a worn gold ring.
When out doing "dirty work", he wears two-button suits in solid, dark colors with no tie. Upon his head rests a three-faced gray ceramic mask. The right face represents black fury, the left gleeful cruelty, and the front is cold apathy. Always wears black gloves.
Backstory:
The Grigoriy Family were upstarts in New York City, the sons of Lucian Grigoriy, a businessman forced to flee Russia for his deep..."donations" to various politicians after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Lucian sought to reinvent himself in NYC, with mild success.
Anton was the third son and fifth child of Lucian's only son Stefan. As such, while he grew up fairly privileged, it was often shoved onto him to handle the day-to-day dirty work of holding the family's network together. Even as a young boy, the teachers at the private schools would often remark on his injuries that seemed to appear with great frequency.
He was permitted a brief respite when he attended university to acquire a business degree, which he translated into a law degree shortly after. Returning to NYC, he attempted to put both into practice, but his position as least favored son continued to delegate him to street-work. During this time, he began to deal with the Foot more than he had before, and came to admire their operation.
Shortly after his return, the Family was thrown into chaos by the murder of Stefan in a drive-by, and a stroke that left Lucian bedridden for several long months before a nurse poisoned him for his repeated sexual harassments. Anton had a chance to finally move up, but his elder brothers were already vying for control of the organization, and he had no base to call upon. So, he presented himself to the Foot.
Anton offered Oruko Saki the use of the Grigoriy Family's resources if he assisted him in the takeover. Saki lent Anton the use of some of his Foot Ninjas in his attempt, which was successful in assassinating the elder brother, but not the middle one, who managed to pull most of the Grigoriy ventures into his hands and hold them. Anton was able to take control of a few front operations, but far less than he had claimed he would.
In the end, he was able to keep his life by agreeing to work for Saki as a legal advisor and business frontman. He strove hard to prove his worth, and succeeded well enough to gain favor as a member of Saki's favorites. When Saki died, he retained control of the business end of the Foot...but failed to gain control of the Ninja with the appearance of Karai.
