History:
Anton Darko was raised by his father, Vlad, to become the heir to the family's criminal empire, and Anton greeted his education with enthusiasm. What his father couldn't predict however, was that Anton desperately, despreately hated him and was only learning the supervillain trade as a means to figure out a really vicious way to off the old man.

In the end, he came up with three, but two of them are too terrible to mention here. The third, the stabbing, proved extremely effective.

Some might call Anton ungrateful. After all, his father successfully sponsored him for membership in the secretive Masked Circle organization. His father was also responsible for the black magic ritual that granted Anton his deadly "talks to birds" power.

Nothing toughens you up like your hundredth "Ha Ha! Your only power is you talk to birds!" beating.

Through it all, Anton has grown into a decidedly cruel and charismatic villain. He recently orchestrated a violent schism within the Masked Circle, taking fully one third of its members with him. His future plans remain a mystery.

Powers:
Seriously. Anton can talk to birds. That's it. Okay, he can also kill people from a distance just by thinking about it (and pulling the trigger of a gun that is pointed at them). He's also very smart and an excellent hand-to-hand combatant, but our lawyers tell us that neither of those two things rise to the level of full-blown power.

Weaknesses:
He can't talk to bats. Or airplanes.
