He is meticulous about every single mistake he makes, going so far as to spend a vast quantity of his time preparing for a task divining all possibilities in order to figure out [i]the best possible path to follow.[/i] Riccardo keeps the same work ethic into his new employment as a delivery boy, ensuring that his deliveries are met with the same dedication as if it were a task given to him by the Church. Outside of work, Riccardo is quite a strange fellow who could almost be called a hypocrite. He calls himself a devout member of the Church, yet he believes science and progress has some sort of place in this world; a belief likely borne from his time spent away from the Church and in Academy City, reminiscing about his home while enjoying the commodities of such a modernized metropolis. Riccardo also has a rather odd, almost obsessive interest for spiders, yet he is afraid of other bugs, especially those without any legs. Even his general demeanor could be described as both casual and laid back, a far cry from the cold professionalism he sports when on the job. [b]Biography[/b]: Born and raised in the countryside of Italy, Riccardo was born to a long and renowned line of druids. Following his family's traditions, Riccardo had trained to become a druid as well, finding a particular interest in his chosen spiritual guide, the spider. While he didn't show any particular talent, it was the fact that he was adept enough at his family's arts which lead to him being brought to the Vatican and inducted by the Roman Catholic Church at a young age as they believed having a magician from such a well-established line would serve them properly. And so, Riccardo was trained by the Church itself to serve their needs of controlling the world. It just so happened to be that the young druid's particular talents made him an ideal assassin. After being taught various methods of infiltration, self-defense, and- most importantly- target elimination, Riccardo has shown great potential so early into his career. It was decided that his training would further commence by infiltrating the City of Science and Technology. It has now been a year since Riccardo has been dispatched into Academy City and already has he established a secret identity- that of a pizza delivery boy. [b]Factions[/b]: [i]Roman Catholic Church[/i] - Executioner (basically an assassin, but Riccardo doesn't like that word), [i]0 Degrees Lounge[/i] - Delivery Boy [/hider] [hider=Skills][list] [*][b]Target Elimination[/b]: Riccardo's expertise lies in the art of death, knowledgeable in a myriad of ways to kill a human being. He specializes in using the garotte as well as poisoning his target. While this would also entail training in hand-to-hand combat, because Riccardo's method of attack involves [i]killing[/i] rather than [i]fighting[/i], he is only able to fight defensively against targets who actually know how to fight. [*][b]Danger Avoidance[/b]: Because his line of work involves being isolated in hostile environments, Riccardo has worked meticulously in various methods of minimizing danger to his own self. A sort of caution that places Riccardo into a position that would be considered "ideal", its chance of success increases based on how much preparation Riccardo has taken against a particular hazard. [*][b]Yo-Yo Expertise[/b]: The ability to perform advanced tricks with the "Yo-Yo", Riccardo's method of direct combat also involves the use of two Yo-Yos in order to confound his opponent. If Riccardo was to enter a Yo-Yo competition, he'd probably win, like, second place. [*][b]Knowledge of Spiders[/b]: Riccardo knows a rather concerning amount of facts and trivia regarding spiders. Uh... do I really have to get into that? [*][b]Vehicular Expertise (Moped)[/b]: Alright, get this: Riccardo can drive a moped. [/list][/hider] [hider=Magic] [center][b]Interpretor709[/b] [sub][i]The Piglet That Understands The Spider's Web[/i][/sub][/center] [b]Magical System:[/b] Primarly Druidism, but Riccardo has began to branch into Runes due to their affinity with his particular system of magic. [b]Description:[/b] A system of magic that involves a specialization into the concept of a "spiritual guide." In Riccardo's case, his chosen spiritual guide is the spider. Allows him to utilize spider familiars, utilizing them as scouts and infiltrators. This specialization, however, does not rely much on the use of the spider, itself, but of the materials it provides. In druidism, the spider is considered to be an ancient teacher, and its webs are also associated with one's own fate. This allows Riccardo to utilize the webs of a spider in order to cast divination-based spells, which he uses to both track and determine the "best possible route" to his target. Riccardo is also skilled in the art of "Spider Medicine", though he only really knows how to extract and utilize a spider's venom. Because the spider is also viewed as "the guardian of ancient languages and alphabets", Riccardo has recently delved into learning the runic alphabet due to its compatibility with his primary system of magic. At this time, Riccardo only knows four individual rune characters, and utilizes them mostly to enhance his physical and cognitive abilities. He is currently reading up on a way to use them in conjunction with the webs weaved by his spiders, though he never has found a good opportunity to put his research to practice. [/hider] [/hider]
