Antonio Rodrigues

Antonio Rodrigues is a character role-played by Kripted.

General Description
Antonio Rodrigues is a Full Member of the Angels and the Interim CEO of The Pit Stop.

He was previously the Sergeant at Arms for the Bondi Boys MC prior to leaving.

Personality
Antonio is a soft-spoken soldier with a send-it "no questions asked" mentality. He will never turn down an offer to do some crime. He is quick-witted and often tells one liners that makes everyone laugh. He always willing to learn new things to help his group improve whether that is hacking for boosts, and cooking meth.

Criminal Progression
Antonio is known for his growing reputation as a street racer in both A and open class races. His racing style has been labeled as "reckless idiot" due to his all-out send it mentality. He is often a getaway driver for jobs or a main interceptor for those higher risk situations.

During his time in the BBMC, Antonio was given meth tables and reached 65% grade (the max for his level at the time) within 3 days of owning the table. He then reached 75% grade meth (the max for his level) within 7-8 days of owning the meth tables, and ran the entire production for the club's meth empire. It's safe to say that Antonio loves manufacturing meth.

Since departing from the BBMC, Antonio has picked up the production of meth and supplies the Angels with meth when needed.

Bondi Boys MC
He was first introduced to the club by fellow Hangaround Asher Brown, after driving him away from the police and impressing him with his skills despite how new he was to the city. That reputation soon spread, and was proven as he passed the Bondi Boys MC driving time trials on his first try. Antonio was accepted as a Hangaround of the BBMC on the 22nd of October 2021. Olivia Garcia was his original jacket and after she left the BBMC, Junior Meats took him as his hangaround.

Once the higher ups of the club recognized his skill, he became a trusted driver on jobs as a Hangaround, driving for banks and eventually Meth Runs.

During a shoot out with the PD, everyone in the group went down except for Irwin Dundee, Finley Milton, and Antonio. Throughout the shootout, Antonio would constantly communicate "one down" which garnered him the name Antonio "One Down" Rodrigues, which also soon became his racing alias.

This shootout proved to Dundee and the rest of the jacketed members that both Antonio and Finn were well rounded people ready to join the club as jacketed members and were soon promoted to BBMC Prospects together.

Antonio was promoted from a Hangaround of the BBMC to a Prospect on 24th of February 2022.

Antonio quickly became known as the member obsessed with all things meth; constantly asking to do Meth Runs despite the groan from Irwin Dundee and cooking meth every hour on the dot when he can. It has become an inside joke in the club that any utterance of the word "meth" gets Antonio to come running (which isn't exactly false).

He was promoted to a Patched Member on the 6th of November 2022 for his work leading the club and working with meth. He was promoted to Sergeant at Arms on the 24th of March 2023 after months spent running guns for the club.

On 19th of May 2023, Antonio had a conversation with Finley Milton where he explained that he had felt distant from the BBMC for months. He expressed that internal strife, cliques forming within the club, and his authority as High Command being undermined had led to him not enjoying waking up in the Billy anymore. He explained his absence and his feelings throughout it all, and asked Finn to be blooded out, therefore leaving the BBMC.

Angels
Antonio was introduced to the Angels, while still a member of the BBMC, as a "friend" of Lexi Law 's after the Angels had a running joke of seeing Antonio everywhere they went. Although Antonio was friends with Lexi at first, that friendship quickly extended to all the Angels, and he began regularly hanging out with them and doing jobs together.

During the Coalition War the Angels were involved in April 2023, Antonio proved himself and earned the title Honorary Angel on the 13th of April when he helped pick up downed Angels.

Even though Antonio wasn't an Angel, Antonio was still extremely protected by the gang and was seen as family. He was usually seen with them every day and did many jobs and errands with and for them. Angels leader Claire Seducer had said on numerous occasions that if Antonio hadn't been in a gang previously, he would have made a perfect Angel, but since she does not trust "gang hoppers", he would not get his wings... that being said, Antonio still knew many gang secrets, was treated as family, and was also added to the gang app.

After many discussions amongst Angels, and Antonio constantly proving his loyalty and dedication to the Angels, it was unanimously decided that he would make a perfect Angel, despite his past.

On the 4th of August 2023, Antonio was brought to the gazebo of Casa de la Angel and was officially offered a position as an Angels Associate, with certain conditions to be determined, which he immediately accepted without hesitation. Exactly 2 months later, on 4th of October 2023, whilst on a trip to Spain, The Angels took Antonio to the Spanish Casa de la Angel gazebo and offered the opportunity to attempt the Angels initiation (kidnap and rob a police officer) to become a full Angels member, at some point later in the week. Which he once again immediately accepted without hesitation.
