− | Born in Miami, Florida, Zio! has stated that he was a soldier during the first Gulf War and that he was Embraced shortly after returning. He is noticably Puerto Rican and has shown a very deep connection to his birthplace which he has stated he cannot go back to due to Setites. The details are unknown.

| |
− | He arrived in Iowa City in 2006 with his broodmate (whereabout unknown). His flamboyant attitude and demeanor was immediately met with disapproval by the then-Prince Philip Michael Kennedy. In one night, Zio! was given $1,000,000 and Embrace rights to leave. As of yet, those Embrace rights have not been "cashed in".

− | Zio! most notably arrived in the "spotlight" during the seige in New York in late 2006. As a founding member of the team "Whisky Tango Fantastic" with other such Kindred as Francis Merevein, Jacob Tallfeather and Obsidious, they were instrumental in many of the great battle that happened. It was during this time that he began to study the Sabbat in some detail, going so far as to disappear from time to time on "hunting trips" with Francis and returning with more knowledge about them. He was the last soldier to remain in the New York area after all other hope had been given up. In 2007 he came to the Grand Elysium in Columbus to meet and debrief on the situation in New York. On an excursion to rescue the Chief Archon to the Brujah Simon Churchill, Zio! was kidnapped by the Sabbat. He was retrieved the next day and spent 6 months in rehabilitation under the care of Justicar Pascek.

− | When awakening, Zio! showed a streak of aggression that had not been apparent before. It was shrugged off and he quickly moved up the rank and file of Kindred society, most noticeably Cedar Rapids where he was Scourge, Sheriff, Keeper and Seneschal. While Sheriff, he displayed an obvious dislike for the Malkavian Harpy, Saffron Lake. Repeatedly commenting on her abuse of Brujah and her tendency to extort boons from them, Zio! repeatedly told his Clan and his Commanders that he would kill her, to no response.

| |
− | In Black Hawk County, while he was Seneschal in Cedar Rapids, he did kill Saffron Lake (then a citizen of Iowa City) by extinguishing a cigarette on her. In the resulting uproar he was Blood Hunted in Cedar Rapids while he was at the Grand Elysium in Columbus. Further investigation into the motivations for his actions showed he has Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. He was introduced to therapy sessions with then-Archon Invidia who improved his condition and made him "acceptable" for society.
| |
− |
| |
− | It was also around this time that Zio! made ammends for Saffron's death with Her Lady Maris Streck in a meeting with Jacob Black and Garrett Dannington (there to represent Clan Brujah's interests). No one save those three knows what happened in the meeting, but the results were Zio! working for Jacob and Garret handing Jacob $5.
| |

| |
− | The next two years of Zio!'s story involved service to the Malkavian office. It was also during this time he co-founded Team Fail, a coterie of warriors who would come and help fight the Sabbat.

| |
− | On New Year's Day 2010, Zio! organized the domain of the Twin Cities to remove Chester Black from power by removing his Acknowledgement and he claimed praxis, facing an Ordeal delivered by Archon Gerald the Sane on behalf of Justicar Cock Robin to atone for the crimes Chester Black had committed. He was an unusual Prince, encouraging his citizens to "stop being vampires" and encouraging cooperation and teamwork. Three months later, the Ordeal was deemed completed and Zio! stepped down as Prince, stating he was not a peacetime Prince. He had accomplished what he had set out to do.

| |
− | Two months later, Zio! was named a full Archon to Her Lady Maris Streck of Clan Malkavian.
