Personality[]

One day, while at his hideout, he was confronted by Throné, who was sent to kill him by Father. They fought each other and despite Bergomi's use of performance-enhancing drugs, he was defeated and subdued. While Throné was wounded by Father, who arrived after the battle, he attempted to flee, but was killed by Father, who pierced him with a hurled dagger.Bergomi will begin battle with 2 Bergomi's Lackey at his side.
