[b]Name:[/b] Giovanni Giorno

[b]Age:[/b] 152 (Appears 19)

[b]Gender:[/b] Male

[b]Species:[/b] Vampire

[b]Appearance:[/b] Gio is described as having "a face like an angel, but a body like a monster truck." His features are strikingly handsome, with sharp blue eyes, a strong jawline, thick, dark hair, and a normally cool expression. However, he is also a rather tall man with a thick, muscular frame and limbs like young tree trunks. His typical attire is quite outlandish by some standards, with a long, dark coat with a high collar and matching cap. Under this, he wears a dark three-piece suit (minus jacket, of course) with a snakeskin belt and loafers. He is adorned with numerous gold accessories, including rings, a watch, buttons on his coat and hat, and a large, heavy chain that hangs down from his collar. His fangs are quite large, even by vampiric standards, and his bite-scar from his turning is at the base of his neck.

[b]Backstory:[/b] Gio became a vampire in a very different world from today's. Warlords with illusions of high class ruled all, and one either paid them tribute or slept with fishes. Due to his raw strength, he was originally a soldato, a warrior for these kingpins. However, his ruthless cunning was underestimated, and he was able to work his way up to becoming an underboss. His ambitions did not end there, but his superiors' tolerance for him did. Rather than see him rise any further above his station, they turned on him, intent on getting rid of him entirely. They put him in an iron coffin and threw him to the bottom of the sea, where he spent the next twenty years. Gio was fished out of the sea by a human boat, thinking that they had discovered lost treasure. How wrong they were. In his efforts to become reacquainted with the world, he came across the Ultranumb, and quickly made up his mind to join them.

[b]Motivation:[/b] Gio wishes to reestablish his reputation among the vampires nobility and hopefully end the lives of his betrayers through his exploits with Ultranumb.

[b]Specialization:[/b] Gio specializes in undead and parasitic creatures, and has a particular fondness for killing demons.
