La Nueva Familia de Arzonia

 In construction  "My foolish brother, everyone have a meaning of being born, including me, who is just a illegimate child. A "bastard", like they always called me, and though I hate that word, I still live with it and pretended nothing had been said about my parentage. Therefore, I suggest you to live freely, following your own spirit, and then you will find out the meaning of your birth. However, for me, your birth is a blessing, since it made me find someone whom I can protect as my own flesh and blood. Welcome to the family of mine."

- Maria Arzonia to Carl Robinson "Maybe, we are doing what authority may considered as crimes, but we are fighting against the worst monsters that plagued the humanity in our own way. Who is the real criminal? Us that kill and steal for protecting the innoncent people, or those Mafusa Gangsters and KnightWalkers that slaughter innoncent citizens for fun? Those public enemies are the worst, and we are fighting against them in our own way. Therefore, I will not tolerate anyone who question our methods and challenge my family. No one can judge us."

- Matt Butcher La Nueva Famillia de Arzonia (Spainish for The New Family of Arzonia), also simply known as the Arzonia Family and Los Familia de Arzonia, is a family lead by Maria Arzonia and operated as the central faction of the Catholic Rebels, deemed to take back the Catholic Church from the control of Michael Langdon and the Fallen Roman Catholic Church.

Prior to Maria's take over and its reformation, the Arzonia Family serves as an evil crime family and supporting antagonist of LOTM: Witnesses of Sleepy Hollow & Sword of Kings Crossover - The Corbin Files. After Maria took over the family and reformed it, it became the main heroic faction of LOTM: Witnesses of Sleepy Hollow Spin-Off - Firenza Junior and a major Magic Side heroic faction in the following stories in both storylines of LOTM: Sword of Kings and LOTM: Witnesses of Sleepy Hollow.

Original timeline
"Stop talking about my deplorable father or my abusive brothers in front of me. I have some part of them living inside of me, indeed, but they never gave me or my mother any affections or kindness. My mother died because of them... My true father is God himself, since he sent me my true family. My real brothers... are Matt, Acqua and Carl among many other kind people... They showed me kindness, trust and loyalty, and I will show my true loyalty, trust and kindness to them as my gratitude! I will never betray anyone or anything I cared about!"

- Maria Arzonia cut off her ties with her birth father and her brothers

The original Arzonia Family was formerly connected to Mafusa Gang (and therefore, the original Family of Arzonia subsquently connected to Leohart's Cult, Triggers Hell and The Revelation of Qliphoth as a whole), and its tyranny came to an end after the death of the Arzonia Brothers, the former leaders of the family. After her return as a spirit, Maria rebuilt the family and regared all of her close friends as her family members, turning it from a criminal family into a heroic vilginate family that helped to fight against the KnightWalker Alliance in all the ways. Maria managed to rename it into La Nueva Famillia de Arzonia and decide to take down the Fallen Roman Catholic Church, taking back Vatican from evil, and subsquently destroying KnightWalker Family bit by bit.

The New Arzonia Family serves as a foil to Polícia Civil do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (which turned evil when Felix Drake took over it). They wanted no authority above others and only bring freedom instead of management on people, and therefore it is purely Chaotic Good

The New Arzonia Family are also considered as one of the most heartwarming heroic organizations in CIS Production storylines, with the motherly caring attitude of its matron, Maria Arzonia, who accepted anyone who is loyal, kind-hearted and brave allies of her into her family.

No matter if they join her or not, no matter what their parentage are, as long as they were kind, gentle and showed all kinds of normal love in front of Maria, the leader of this reformed family will always regarded them as one of her family. The concept of family in Maria's mind is not about blood, but is about bond. The experiences of being abused by her own brothers made Maria realized that not every relatives could be considered as family, and therefore she started to hate anyone who treat their relatives and family as tools, including people like Akrak Couteau.

Renewed Spain
After the redeeming sacrifise of the former Spanish Queen, Esther Blanchett, Michael ultimately lost his control on Spain, and Maria seized the chance to take over Spain and wipe out Michael's forces inside Spain one by one after the defeat of Langdon Orphans and their leader, Melancholia, saving the entire country from the corrupting influence inside the Fallen Church.

As Esther wished after her death, Maria and the New Arzonia Family were praised as heroes, and Maria was recommended by Spanish citizens as the new Queen of Spain. Although never wanting to call herself a Queen, Maria eventually accepted the offer for the sake of her people and became the new Queen of Spainish Kingdom. However, she also said that she did this not for power, just for helping others and bring an end to the war. She also stated that if she was a Queen, she will try to help poor children to prevent them from repeating the tragedies happening on herself.

Thanks the efforts of the entire Arzonia Family, Maria's new reign upon Spain is a benevolent one, maintaing the peace between Castilians with other groups like Catalans with one target - fight against the KnightWalker Family. The Arzonia Family gained the country a three-month time of prosperity while recovering from the battle against the Fallen Roman Catholic Church. Even so, Maria was waiting for the chance to take the Catholic Church back and make Pietro Yogdis the new Pope. However, the peace within Spain was ultimately smased when B1-Killer Kampfdroide Unit-CM 130 came back to life, putting the entire world into danger.

After the foundation of Manufacturing Progressive Sciences, Maria joined Ratatoskr, and her Family becomes an ally and sub-faction of the Rogues. After the World War III, the New Arzonia Family was de jure disbanded for some time due to Maria and Matt Butcher left for the past to apprehend Michael Langdon, but its inner spiritual meanings never ceased since Maria claimed that she will return back to her family once again and will never forget about anyone. After the destruction of Moloch and the end of the Period of Tribulations, Maria and Matt returned back to their future era and rejoin the Rogues, rebuild the New Arzonia Family and fight against Deus.Ex.Machina Industries Empire.

Astaroth Future timeline
However, the New Arzonia Family had turned upside down in the Astaroth Future timeline, where The Revelation of Qliphoth had took over the Prime Earth and started the reign of terror of Astaroth Empire. After the cooperation of evil between Ara Astaroth and Michael Langdon, not only the Family and the Catholic Rebels lost its remained supporter, the Church of England, but also having a massive loss on the members on all four armies.

Looking at whom she cared most about in the world died one by one in front of her, Maria suffered from a horrendous mental breakdown which drove her into nothing but a sociopathic anti-hero as well as cruel slaughterer, who will kill anyone who is not on her side, be them being surrendered or not. Maria also became much more strict towards her underlings.

In the previous time, Maria hardly ever referred herself as a leader, only as "Corazon", and she shared respect and moral equality with her underlings, so that they are loyal to her due to true respect. However, after her personality change and her thirst for revenge consumed her, Maria became a person who is the polar opposite to her former self. She had referred herself as the leader of the family and demanded everyone's loyalty and obedience. Her new followers was forbidden from acting cowardly or being too slow to operate an attack. She was also shown to become unstable upon other three executives, replacing them when they failed her or even went missing, showing when she replaced Carl Robinson's Pica position with someone else without even knowing Carl's current status. Therefore, the future Maria became utterly feared and despised by many people who saw her as nothing but an insane monster.

Even so, some part of Maria's old personality still existed when it showed that she still geniuely cared for her minions and followers, since they were the one who was still with her through thick and thin. However, the change in Maria's personality also made reputations of La Nueva Familia de Arzonia dropped and was widely considered as a group of mad terrorists in the eyes of Astaroth Empire followers. Even evil monsters like B1-Killer Kampfdroide Unit-CM 130 expressed disgust upon Maria's tendency, although it was out of his hypocritical reasons. Future Michael, on the other hand, thought he realized that the true meaning of so-called justice (or so he thought) upon seeing what Maria had become. In Future Michael's mind, the justice bonds with victory. Every side will declare themselves as justice, but only people who win the war can have their "justice" admitted.

- Maria's threat to the corrupt Felix Drake

Corazon Army
The Corazon Army was including most of the members of Catholic Rebels, as well as allies from both Anglican Church and the remnants of Eastern Orthodox Church, and it was led directly by the Family's leader, Maria, operating inside Western Europe. They were allowed to move freely to take actions against the KnightWalker Family and the force of Manufacturing Progressive Sciences around the continent.
 * 240458-1601251Z05954-lp.jpgMain Targets: KnightWalker Family as a whole, The Revelation of Qliphoth, Fallen Roman Catholic Church, Manufacturing Progressive Sciences and the New USSR

After the World War III restarted after the deeds of B1-Killer Kampfdroide Unit-CM 130 and his allies, the Corazon Army had imminently rescued Cardinal Petros Yogdis from Generve from Michael's assassin, Cardinal Antonio Borgia. They escorted Cardinal Yogdis to Tenguu City under Maria's command, so that Katarina would protect him from danger.

The Corazon Army bears resemblence of the original Arzonia Family, using bombs and arson to destroy their enemies, but they never harmed civillians and never involved into crimes.

Trebol Army
The Trebol Army took command from Matt Butcher and co-orchastrated by Princess Villian, operating around anywhere where the remnants of Mafusa Gang were still participating the evil deeds. They were not participating battles unless their lead executive gave them orders. Their major job was to gather all current informations about the situation and informed their executive as soon as possible, and Matt will present it to Ratatoskr and the Rogues whom the New Arzonia Family is allied with after the death of Sonia Nevermind. They were acting more like spies than soldiers.
 * U9233P115DT20140612101619.jpgMain Targets: Mafusa Gang, the Knights of Astaroth, the Underworld, Leohart's Cult and Iscariot Section XIII

Due to its actions that delved into Mafusa Gang, Trebol Army is the first section of the New Arzonia Family who knew about the existence of the Revelation of Qliphoth cultists on Earth.

Pica Army
The Pica Army was the most agreesive part of the Arzonia Family, as they were all the soldiers and troops that inflicted direct harm to enemies. Some of its soldiers were former KnightWalker Soldiers who fled the KnightWalker Family and surrendered to the SU. Maria knew about their hatred to the KnightWalker Family, knowing they were forced to do the crimes, and she allowed them to fight for Anti-KnightWalker factions so that they could atone their sins with their actions, pretty much forgiving them.
 * U=3815863774,3051319614&fm=27&gp=0.jpgMain Targets: Ultimate Despair, Novosic Kingdom, Carissa's Force and Godom Empire 

The Pica Army was led by Carl Robinson, who was pretty dissatisfied that Maria was using former soldiers from the KnightWalker Family, believing they were pretending to surrender or will start slipping back to their old ways in the KA Army. Later, after Michael banished Carl into Sleepy Hollow, Maria decided to keep the place of Pica Executive vacant until she found Carl, though Matt later suggested her to allow Sumireko Hanabusa to take the role temporarily as the Second Pica, which she did. The Pica Army then went much quieter and tried to find a chance to take down Godom Empire.

Diamante Army
The Diamante Army had the least members out of all four factions and was under the command of Magilou, and it was the faction that later worked with the army of Ratatoskr in Brazil so that they would help in the attack against Akrak Couteau, an evil executive of MPS. It later expanded and included the witches from Magilou's coven, that later helped Magilou and Maria to fight against enemies led by Ara Astaroth.
 * U=338180368,1690819164&fm=26&gp=0.jpgMain Targets: Manufacturing Progressive Sciences, Leohart's Cult, Polícia Civil do Estado do Rio de Janeiro, Sepiriah Gastronomics and all corrput officials around the world that have huge illegal properties.

The Diamante Army is the only sub-faction of Arzonia Family that is almost purely magical and have little to no technology. They also support many goods and materials (like food and money) of all kind that would support the Anti-KnightWalker Forces, including the Rogues. Under Maria's permission, the Diamante Army acted like a group of well-intentioned outlaws who robbed from corrupt officials and support the poor people, acting like Robin Hood.

Introduction
The Arzonia Family is a rebel organization feared and hated by both the Underworld and the corrupt officials for their chaotic and rebellous nature. Their leader, Maria Arzonia, hates to hear anyone referring her underlings as tools, since she sees them as family who goes through sorrow and joy. Following some tendancy of Anarchy, Maria and her rebels never hestitate to cause rebellion in anywhere around the globe, killing any members from Mafusa Gang and evil soldiers from the factions of KnightWalker Family on sight had they refused to recant or give in.



The Arzonia Family was based on the original crime family that once served the leadership of Mafusa Gang until becoming a rouge group independant from the gathered Remnants of Mafusa led by Sasha. However, the new Arzonia Family's nature had changed from a crime family to a chaotic good rebellion faction that orchastrates the entire Catholic Rebels, especially after the tragic death of Patriarch Krans and the major dissolve of the Russian Orthodox Church.

After returning from her death as a magical spirit, Maria had managed to salvage the flammable and explosive items left by her brothers in order to create a chaotic good group. She found explosions and fire in her taste when she used them upon the evil people from the KA and all those corrupted politicians in Latin America cointries.

Therefore, the Arzonia Family was armed to teeth and chaotic in nature, being the central faction in the Catholic Rebels supported by Church of England, Eastern Orthodox Church of Russia and other remnats of the original Catholic Church, three of the most inflencial Christian Churches in the world, in order to fight a threat that united every Christians together; the Fallen Roman Catholic Church. They also determined to seek out the darkest secrets behind Mafusa Gang, which led them to revealing the Revelation of Qliphoth, a even bigger threat than Michael Langdon to Magic Side.

Over 80% of the main member from Catholic Rebels have magic abilities and/or superhuman strength, with the notable examples of magicians being Maria Arzonia, Magilou, Abel Nightroad, Acqua of the Back, Vento of the Front and the entire AX members.

Maria gained fresh blood of her family by contacting the rouge magicians and saving the Catholics under Michael's evil control. The Arzonia Family was splited into four factions. The Club (Pica) Seat was made for Carl due to his strength and moxy, but Carl's sudden berserk and betrayl (due to being controlled by the Malice of Moloch and driven by the inner darkness, paranoia and selfishness within Carl) made the seat vacant. As a last resort, Maria had to make Sumireko Hanabusa as the temporary Pica until she won Carl's loyalty back, restoring his kind sider and putting all those crisis into an end for now. The seats of Clover (Trebol) and Diamond (Diamante) belong to Matt Butcher and Magilou, respectively. Maria herself seats on the Heart (Corazon) Seat.

Despite Maria being the central figure of the entire Family, she treats her underlings with respect and maintained morally equal relationships. She refers them by their names and uses polite words to adress them. Anyone who dares to mock them will receive immediate punishment in different scales, decided by its severity.
 * The Pica Army ♠ is made from skilled warriors (like Acqua of the Back) and the surredered KnightWalker Family members (like Sumireko Hanabusa) who were forced to do crimes and wanted to recant their sins even if they might die in the fight against the KnightWalkers.
 * The Corazon Army ♥ is the core of the entire Arzonia Family as well as the core of the Catholic Rebels after Patriarch Krans' death, made of the members of Catholic Rebels and Catholic officials surrendered to the rebel force in order to defeat Michael Langdon and his minions.
 * The Trebol Army ♣ is made of spies and agenls, who were all non-fighters and intellegent members. They are in charge of gathering informations.
 * The Diamante Army ♦ involves mostly the rouge magicians and had allied with the Witch Cult.

Even so, being a rebel does not mean Maria never sets rules. As a leader Maria is a strict person who never allows their tendency being abused upon innoncent so that no other innoncent people would be jeopadized because of their actions.

Maria is also feared by many due to her sudden breaking rage when anyone caused troubles that could jeopadize the entire Arzonia Family, even to a point of slapping Magilou for burning a mysterious creature before anyone could find its true nature. However, Maria soon sincerely apologized to Magilou and mended their family relationships, showing her caring nature upon her family.

She also never attempted to make anyone whom she deemed as family, whether they joined her rebels or not, in danger. After the blood rampage of London was over, Maria selflessly saved Sumireko Hanabusa from the latter's self-immolation due to the death of Mahiru "Shinya" Banba, and Sumireko had joined her formally after the deeds of Maria, showing she never treats her companions as useful tools.

After temporarily defeating Melancholia, Maria answered Carl's question by saying everyone was born for a reason. She then welcomed Carl's return into her family and accepted him as her brother. Therefore, Maria earns many geniue respects and is later trusted even from someone like Carl, who was infamous for being unable to trust anyone after being exposed for having demonic blood.

In his diary, Matt described Maria was someone who had a shrap tongue like knives and a soft heart like cotton candy. The true feelings of Maria towards her sworn family made every members of the entire Arzonia Family loyal and caring to each other in the condition of not breaking the family rules.

Trivia

 * To distinguish her reformed family from true evil criminals like Mafusa Gang, Maria only allowed theft, plunder, arson and bombing against their enemies, considering those ways as fighting fire with fire and last resorts. However, she never allowed anyone to murder, terrorize or plunder any innoncent citizen as well as her allies, and she never allowed deeds like raping, sexual abuse and many more that was too disturbing. Anyone disobeyed her rules will be severly punished, since they had crossed the line of humanity itself.
 * The word "nueva" is a feminine form for "nuevo" (which means "new" in Spain). It was named "nueva" because it was lead by a female leader (or a Matriarch).
 * Interestingly, Maria is the only member in the New Arzonia Family that is a descendant of the original Arzonia Family despite being conceived outside of formal matrimony.
 * The Family supports The Rogues with no deem of reward.
 * The Family's actions in Spain to restore the entire nation from Michael Langdon's control is loosely based on the real-historical event of Spanish transition to democracy after the death of Francisco Franco in 1975.
