Roman Sionis is living proof that what separates genius from madness is a thin line defined by the actions one chooses to take. Sionis, besides being a brilliant esthetician with a talent refined trough many years working in the field, managed to find an opening in the war between freaks and crime families for control of Gotham City. Taking on the role of a supplier, he sells cheaper weapons, products, and drugs to criminals and to anyone with enough money allowing him to rise above his rivals without even needing to enter direct conflict. But is such a conflict becomes unavoidable, he will unleash his masked militia to end the situation quickly and deecisively.
Roman Sionis is the son of an important esthetician in Gotham City, often attending luxurious events alongside other influential families of the city, such as the Wayne Family and the Elliot Family. Froman early age, Roman mainted a good relationship with his parents and with school friends, always prioritizing them and helping them in any way he could. However, one participar event would change the innocent child Roman was forever.
At the age of 9, Roman Sionis and his family were invited to an event hoste by the Thorne Family, one of the highest elites of Gotham City.
After a moment of carelessness from Roman's Parents, the boy heard a noise coming from a small shack located away from the main residence. Curious, the boy ran toward it and peeked through a narrow gap in a large locked steel door.
What he saw in that moment would change him forever. Insidade, several powerful men were gathered while wearing animal masks, participating in what appeared to be a secret society or and animalistic cult.
Roman Grew up carrying that image in his mind: Monsters hide behind human faces and behave like ordinary people only because they fear not being accepted for waht they trule are.
After several years, Roman Sionis became the vice president of his father's cosmectis company, Janus Cosmetics. However, driven by a desire to become someone greater within the company and among Gotham's elite, Sionis set fire to the family home, killing both of his parents in the process while pretending to be one of the only survivors of the incident.
