Anthony Marco D’Angelo
Description
Tony “Smokes” is the guy who’s always there—leaning in a doorway, parked in the corner booth, or standing just behind the guy in charge with a cigarette burning low between his fingers. He wears charcoal suits with ash burns on the cuffs and speaks in short, quiet bursts. His voice is gravel over velvet, and when he looks at you, it’s like he’s measuring the distance between your heart and the nearest exit wound. Nobody really knows how he got the nickname—he’s always smoking, sure, but some say it’s from what he did in a nightclub fire in ’42.Personality
Cold, professional, and disciplined. Smokes doesn’t like small talk. He’s polite, but not friendly—unless you count his habit of lighting someone else’s cigarette before interrogating them. He works clean and keeps things quiet. Whether he’s running messages, collecting debts, or putting someone in the ground, he does it without fuss or flair. He doesn’t hate anyone—but he rarely likes anyone either.Habits
Always has a cigarette in hand—never seen without one Carries a zippo engraved with “No Second Chances” Keeps a deck of cards in his coat but never plays—just shuffles them Listens to jazz radio alone in his car late at nightHooks & Angles
Reliable Killer: Joe Bagels trusts Smokes with delicate work. If he’s on the job, it’s either really important—or really bad. Fire in His Past: Something went down at a club fire in the early ’40s. Some say he caused it. Some say he survived it. Either way, he avoids fire like it’s personal. Ghosted: Smokes vanished for a year during the war. No one knows where he went, and he sure as hell doesn’t talk about it. Silent Choice: He’s watching the South Side shift and knows when to move with the tide. If the Sinners make the right offer, he might jump—quietly.
