Antonio Maldini

Maldini, Antonio
Born in Milano, Italy. Father is the manager of a textile factory, mother is a homemaker. Five siblings. Attended Universitą degli Studi di Ferrara, 1984-88. Graduated with a degree in Chemistry. Joined L'Arma dei Caribinieri in 1989 and after completing training was assigned to the Comando Carabinieri Antidroga, the Caribinieri's anti-narcotics agency. Transferred in 1995 to the Gruppo Intervento Speciale (GIS), Italy's elite counter-terrorist team. Married since 1990. Three children.

Maldini's specialty is stealth. At GIS his ability to occupy positions undetected by the enemy resulted in the nickname "The Invisible Man". He is in excellent physical condition and is exceptionally quick on his feet. His demeanor is calm and somewhat aloof. Although a solid team member, he is too introspective to be a truly effective commander. Off-duty he is an amateur marathoner and has competed in races across Europe. Extremely intelligent and well-spoken.
