==Biography==
==Biography==


Phil Bell was born in 1968 in [[Alderney City]], and is of 90% Irish with some Italian heritage. He acts as if he were a full Italian, probably to fit in with his fellow mafioso. In [[Catch the Wave]], Phil says a lot of Italian phrases and calls the [[Irish American Killers|Irish Mob]] " Irish idiots", suggesting he is a bit ashamed to be Irish. At age 16 in 1984, he was arrested for trying to steal a car.

Between 1988 and 1990, during his early 20s, he was arrested for promoting gambling and manslaughter. Phil had probably joined the [[Pegorino Family]] by then; [[Jimmy Pegorino]] says in [[Pegorino's Pride]] that Phil is a long-time trusted business partner of his. He also says that he wishes to promote Phil, but worries whether it will offend the Commission who are somewhat racist against non-Italians. He was married and has two or more children, born after 1990 (fighting for custody strongly suggests the kids are under 18).

He and fellow Pegorino capo [[Ray Boccino]] secretly hate each other, because Phil believes "every move he makes is so obvious, it's disgusting to see him trying to sleaze his way up the ladder". Ray is also much more ambitious and even selfish, while Phil believes that "there ain't much in this life you got control of", which is why he follows Jimmy's orders to the letter, even when he believes it won't work perfectly (as seen in [[Catch the Wave]]). Phil and Jimmy Pegorino's wife [[Angie Pegorino|Angie]] are very good friends, causing some to believe they're having an affair. Jimmy doesn't believe the rumors, and has trust in Phil.
