Tony DiMera
Played by Thaao Penghlis
Written by Jacques
It is true what they say about "the apple does not fall far from the tree". Tony
show that this statement is true in every way: he is like a carbon copy of his
father Stefano.
Tony was, once upon a time, also a good guy, helping out everyone in need.
Everything changed when his beloved Kristin Blake broke off the relationship and
turned to John Black.
The DiMera curse showed that no-one can escape its destiny. Tony hated John
with a passion. His hatred towards John made it look like John killed Tony. Tony
planned everything carefully and John was framed for Tony's death.
However, it became clear that Tony was very much alive and had moved back to
Salem. His ultimate goal was to destroy John Black for good.
Tony became a victim of the Salem Stalker. Later, it came to light that Tony
was behind the killings in New Salem.
Tony always had to live in John's shadow because John was once like a son to
Stefano. Tony felt betrayed by his own father. As they say, desperate times call
for desperate measures and so Tony planned the whole scheme of the Stalker and
New Salem. In a way, it was his desperate attempt to get his father's attention.
Tony shocked everyone when they saw Stefano's body, and Tony claimed that he had
killed his own father.
Tony is a true DiMera and will go to any length to destroy the people he
hates.
