Antonio Rosa-Brewtaker

Antonio Rosa-Brewtaker is the current Pirate Lord of Barbossa, and head of the Rosa Family branch of the Brewtaker Family

Background
Antonio was born into the Rosa family, a prominent family in Barbossa, and current governing family of Varina. Being the youngest of 3 children, Antonio was often neglected by his parents, even abused to times, causing him to grow up rebellious and quick-tempered. He would constantly get himself into trouble, either by stealing from citizens of Port Rosa, getting into fights, or trying to sneak his way into the crew of one of the many merchant ships traveling through Port Rosa. He even found himself joining into Le Rose Nere, the mafia-type group his uncle ran, much to his parents' displeasure.

By the age of 16, Antonio had all but left his family, even being kicked out of Le Rose Nere by his uncle for stealing numerous pieces of jewelry from him, including a gold chain which he refuses to take off to this day. It was around this time he met Giovanni Brewtaker, who would soon begin to fill the role of Antonio's father figure. Giovanni would train Antonio in the ways of leadership, attempting to turn him into a better person. This sort of worked, and by the age of 18, he had managed to completely overthrow his own family from their positions in Varina, leaving only himself as governor. He banished them from Varina, and later had them all assassinated when they moved to the Isle of Krakens. The only other living Rosa besides himself was his uncle, who still led Le Rose Nere. Since his uncle still secretly lived in Port Rosa, Antonio easily found out where he lived, killing him in his sleep. Now leading both Varina AND Le Rose Nere, Antonio had grown to become one of the most influential people in Barbossa. Due to his resentment for his family, he had their names scrubbed from all records, but still keeping the name, simply because he liked it.

Rise to power
Just 2 months before his 19th birthday, Giovanni had grown ill and adopted Antonio, leaving everything in his name to Antonio. Not even 3 days later, Giovanni died. Now, receiving even more wealth, Antonio felt invigorated to begin a conquest for even more power. However, Giovanni had already set a plan in motion, making a deal with Eleanor before he died to reinstate Barbossa, and having Antonio as its Pirate Lord. Antonio was notified by Eleanor, and decided to follow through with the deal, creating the 4th Pirate State of Barbossa. Soon after, old members of Barbossa started to return, starting with Philip Brewtaker. Phil demanded to be given Admiral, and Antonio really didn't have any problem with that, so he appointed Phil to the position. The two would gradually start working closer with each other, leading them to basically co-run the nation.
