Benny and Paulo were best friends and friendships were stronger than family in the slums growing up around Rio de Janeiro. Together the boys ran wild, evading death squads and scoring money from unwary tourists and low-level hold ups. While Benny was an easy-going gangster, Paulo was more on the psychotic side and inevitably began killing people. At first it was rival gang bangers but then it progressed to regular citizens who wouldn't hand over money or who looked at him the wrong way.

Without knowing it, Benny had become one half of the most feared and hated duo in the Emerald City slum.

He was cautioned by an old Chinese man and began to learn martial arts and studied from the man's text books. Paulo and Benny began to drift apart and Benny found himself a girl, Angelica. Everything seemed to be changing for the better for Benny, but Paulo was unable to change with the times and continued to use intimidation and violence to get what he wanted.

He tried to force himself on Angelica but Benny intervened. Paulo pulled a knife and stabbed his best friend, but the wound was worth it for Benny who truly realised the limitations of his friendship. Benny moved out of the slums and Paulo was unable to follow. Benny worked hard to provide for his wife but they struggled. It was only when the Emerald Crane, the old man who had mentored Benny as a teenager, began hiring him for protection work in Emerald City that he felt good about his life. The money allowed him to rent a good place and Angelica was happy.

But he was forced to keep his two lives separate. Angelica wouldn't be able to handle knowing that he had returned to the slums.

Benny became the Emerald Crane's favoured son. He excelled at capoeira and generated a buzz around the slums. The people looked to him for protection and he provided it for them. He became a folk hero.

And then the Emerald Crane unveiled his grand plan to combat megacorporations and megalomaniacs. Benny never hesitated and followed his mentor without question. Upon the Emerald Crane's death, Benny assumed control of most of the administrative side of the organisation. He gets along with everyone and they don't see him as a threat.

Destino has uberhuman agility and reaction times.  He is a highly trained martial artist, specialising in the dance-like form of capoeira. He wields a katana and an energy blaster he stole from a Southern Cross International office in Sao Paulo. He is a confident fighter but follows a strict code of conduct as a student of the Emerald Crane.

Benny has a magnetic personality which draws all sorts of people to him. He is almost always happy and smiles frequently, showing off perfect teeth. He is physically fit, tall and lithe. He wears glasses although he sometimes wears contact lenses instead, and his most obvious physical feature is his afro. As Destino he wears a tight green armoured one-piece costume, black boots and straps which hold his scabbard to his back. He wears one steel wrist guard on his right forearm which once belonged to Emerald Crane.
