Ill-fated and poorly started, Nazario's life began in upheaval. His mother died in childbirth and orphaned seven small pups, all of which were picked off in the early days of their life by exposure, hunger or illness, leaving Nazario alone. Luckily for him, fellow packmates of Inferni found him, and raised him communally. He grew up within the pack, profoundly independent, and in a period of utter prosperity beneath the tutelage and guidance of the then-Aquila's daughter, Vicira Tears.

Shortly after his first shifting, his foolhardy personality threw him on trajectory for poor decision making - the Inferni-Salsola War sparked in him a righteous form of patriotism and pro-coyote mentality. While Inferni's health waned, this superiority never faltered. When the coyote clan eventually splintered, he stuck together with the rag-tag band left in its wake, branding itself as The Cartel. While the group held together well enough, Nazario and his brother, Boone, held themselves to an aggrandized standard, and yearned for something more - during the summer of 2019, on the heels of a conflict that hunted after another Loner Band they'd partnered with, the duo founded the Del Cenere Gang.

While his brother may have stepped down from the mantle of his second-in-command, Nazario still holds onto his crown as the Rey Salvaje.
