Santiago Calzonei

Early Life
Santiago was born on a horse ranch in Nothern Spain 1879. His family cared deeply for him but he grew up in poverty. He grew up being a staunch supporter of socialism and despised America for defeating Spain, blaming them for a majority of Spain's problems.

When Santiago became of age he became a full time stable man. He tended to his parents ranch for most of his time but always had a fascination with swords. He would sometimes pretend to be a cavalry man while he would ride. He trained and trained until one day in 1917 when he read the local newspaper and saw news of the October Revolution. Seeing an opportunity to spread communism and finally fulfill his dream of being a cavalry officer, he got tickets on a boat and headed to Russia.

Military Career
When he arrived in Russia the Revolution took him in with open arms and immediately put him to work. He was put with a rifle division on the frontline. During a battle along the Volga River he found himself alone behind enemy lines, then suddenly charging him was a Russian cavalry man. Santiago was sure he would be killed but in fear he pointed his rifle at the man, stabbing him with his bayonet. The man was dead and Santiago saw opportunity to do what he trained to do. He mounted that horse and picked up the sword, he swiftly charged into battle. He killed atleast 15 men that day and showed his commanders how capable he was. The Russian army was forced to retreat and for Santiago's bravery, quick thinking, and general badassery he was promoted to an NCO and placed incharge of a cavalry platoon. Santiago went on to fight through the entire Russian revolution and gradually made his way to Captain.

In 1923 Santiago was placed incharge of a security detail protecting Vladimir Lenin at a party. Unfortunatly for Santiago and Lenin the threat would not be from outside but from within. Lenin was poisoned by the party's bartender. Santiago realized too late to save Lenin but by god would he get revenge. He knew everyone at that party, knowing that one Alexi Pizzalov was that bartender. He chased Alexi to his home but Alexi was able to get away on a boat sent to Boston. Santiago asked his superiors for permission to hunt Alexi Pizzalov down. He was denied but decided that he wasn't going to take no for an answer. After being quite persistent to his COs he was able to get permission to leave for America but wouldn't be allowed back into the army seeing as he was entering America illegally. So him and a few loyal men left The Soviet Union to hunt down Alexi Pizzalov.
