Determined to rise above his humble beginnings, Demetrius honed his skills in the art of manipulation and deception, using his silver tongue to navigate the treacherous waters of the criminal underworld with ease.

Now, as the leader of the Von Essen Gang, Demetrius is poised to "right the wrongs" of society as he sees it. With his silver tongue, his mastery of illusionary magic, and his loyal followers at his back, he sees that there is little that can stand in his way.
