While Ravnos left the Romanis' touring company to persue other goals, Niklos remained behind and perfected his high-flying routine with his fellow performers (cousins, mostly). Unfortunately, times got hard and the company had to face a hard decision: either join up with a larger troupe (and face being lost in the shuffle as just another act) or fold. Being the proud gypsies that they were, the company folded and went their separate ways.

Niklos was especially upset at this turn of events, for he was on the verge of becoming a headlining attraction. When added to his people's long-lived hatred of the gaje, Niklos became an angry young man indeed. So when his fast-talking brother suddenly re-entered his life with an opportunity to both be back in the spotlight and to humilate gaje, Niklos jumped at the opportunity.

With a chip on his shoulder and fire in his cold grey eyes, Niklos was ready to show the WWO just how Amazing the Romanis could be. He matured as a wrestler with frightening speed, taking to his new home as if he were born to it.

Initially skeptical about the whole "Sabbat Justice" thing, the young gypsy has used the group as an excuse to channel his bottomless pool of anger into a sharp focus. Niklos's generally aimless high-impact offense if frequently the weapopn through which Ravnos's devious strategies are executed, making the team of the Romanis much more dangerous than either man individual.

Surprisingly, it was Niklos's suggestion that the team's name be changed to the Arcana upon entering the UWF. His willingness to cast away the familiy's tradition in exchange for his new image indicate that he may be appreciating the Code more than he lets on.
