Originally Anton used the alias of the Thief-of-Night to become a thief after his father's death, with the sole purpose of providing a fine life for his adoptive sister. The New 52 reboot would go on to re-introduced Anton as Night-Thief the now stepson and secret lover of Nocturna. His alignment with her made him an enemy of Batwoman.
