Gus "Tank" Ghirga

"'The wheel of corruption... It turns and turns... And there is little the normal people can do. But me? With these powers? I can break it, tear it apart. And we would ride a bullet train towards tomorrow.'"

Gus "Tank" Ghirga
Gustav Aleksanderos Ghirga was born in Greece, with a Russian name and an Italian surname.

Once the itallian mob boss told their seven times great grandafther what had happened to his only son, and forced him to leave the country, Torrone Ghirga started writing all of his life down. After finding decent work on Spain, marrying a Portuguese woman, and dying on Egypt, all his descendents continued writing down on the family journal, remembering how Torrone had forsaken his first son, Narancia, and always remembering the bonds of family, even above all others.

Of course, after a hundred years, the journal had become a black mess of fungus, but the tales of Narancia's death and Torrone's mistake never stopped being passed down.

This set the identity of the Ghirga family, already not monetarily well when they entered Neo Giovanncia, and who had to struggle to survive and feed their only son, Gus.

While they have been left alone by police and criminals alike, their "family curse" forced Gus to start working early. While the nature of this "curse" eluded most ancestors, it revealed itself to Gustav when, in a fit of rage, he first manifested Crazy Train to steal back an apple from the hands of a thug. Suddenly, the "genetic arthritis" was gone, and in its place, a machine with the power to shred through concrete walls.

Suddenly, Narancia's spirit was there with him. Re-incarnated after a hundred years, a metal machine to protect his family from the metallic progress of the future.

He just had to use it well.
