Since he was born in the north part of Italy, he has a long angular face and a large and thin mouth. The complexion of his skin color is light tan and his hair color is a dark brown. He stands at 5'5” and his chubby appearance is well-know to many, despite him being a healthy guy. [u][b]Affiliation[/b][/u] Sebastiano isn't in anyone's 'camping ground' as he would call it. But, that doesn't mean that he isn't willing to listen to offers for people that happened to be with these gangs and criminal enterprises. [u][b]Occupation[/b][/u] A line cook & an illegal bartender. [u][b]Skill[/b][/u] He was taught by his previous owner to become a bartender and he soon became one of the best in the restaurant. The owner guessed that he had a hidden talent to being a bartender as he can impress a lot of people while he's mixing the drinks. Sebastiano knows how to play the piano as well, but it has been awhile since he played one. He's trying to get one to the restaurant, but he won't know how to hide it well. And he knows how to hide something in plain sight, thanks to his strict family. He always kept stuff hidden from his parents or risk getting it taken. He thinks the same way with his drinks. Keep the drink hidden or get them taken by the law. [u][b]Background[/b][/u] Benedetti was the youngest child in a family of six. His father wasn't around as much because of working in the mines and his mother was busying with the others to pay attention to him. When he was able to speak and walk, he started to follow his older brothers' around. Almost all of the brothers didn't care except his second youngest, Ermilo. Ermilo wasn't the smartest person around, but he knew enough to stay out of trouble. He began to train Benedetti things about the real world like washing dishes and cooking a meal for the family. Ermilo cared about him more than his mother and father. When things at home got worse, Ermilo grew tired of the tension there and planned to run away. Benedetti didn't learn about it until he saw him bags onto the bed. He tried to get him to leave with him, but Ermilo refused and said that he would be better at home than out in the streets with him. Then, he left. After years of dealing with his father's death and life as a teenager during the Great War, Benedetti found him in New York City terminally ill. At the age of nineteen, he packed his bags and decided to move to America so he could see his dying brother as the war was ending. No-one else wanted to move with Benedetti. Ermilo was able to see his little brother for the last time. Before he died, he gave him the remaining money that he had: $1,000. He didn't share on how he got the money or did Sebastiano asked where he got the money. At the age of twenty-six, he started work as a dishwasher at a local restaurant and bar before the Prohibition was in effect. After working for two years, he was promoted to line cook as the Prohibition was in effect. Business fell for a couple months until it started to serve drinks illegally to their customers. The owner needed a bartender that was willing to risk their lives for cash and he found Sebastiano. At first, he declined because he didn't know how to serve drinks; but, the owner was willing to teach him. He accepted the offer and started training to become the bartender. The restaurant had been successful overnight and the criminal enterprises of New York started to take an interest in the restaurant. Sebastiano was making more money than he ever did as a line cook and he soon got greedy. He wanted to take over the restaurant from the owner's hand, but he would never allow that to happen. With the help of other workers at the restaurant, the group pinned down the owner and kidnapped him. Sebastiano ordered that the workers 'take care of him outside of the city limits' and assumed control of the restaurant and the illegal bar in the basement.
