I didn't know if I should post it here or in the AXIS powers area...I wasn't sure how acceptances go.
Sorry!
Name: Giordano Raphael Vittore; commonly known as Rafe (Ray-f)
Occupation:
Nello Regio Esercito, sono un maresciallo
In the Royal Army, I am a Marshall. In the Italian military, a Marshall in between a Sergeant and a Lieutenant
Age: venti-cinque. (25)
Allies/Axis/Neutral: Axis
Physical Description:
His most noticeable qualities are green eyes, a perpetual tan and short black hair that he's recently shaven off (see picture) as they prepare to move in on France. He stands about 6" (A little over 1.81 m), lean and toned from military service. He sports a three o'clock shadow when he forgets to shave, and has the rugged appearance of your classic Italian man. Although not extremely broadshouldered, he swaggers with the arrogance of being on the "right" side, and though he speaks English, it is always heavily accented. He speaks fluent Italian, of course, and a good portion of German.
Personality:
Raphael is young, strong, and nationalistic. He believes everything Mussolini has said, and like many idealistic young men, he doesn't think he's going in to die. The thing is, the Jews are responsible for the reason finances are going to hell and things have been tough lately. He's a staunch Catholic, and he prays - a lot. He honestly believes that God is on his side, and this blind hatred is what fuels him. He wants to make his father proud, and he's somewhat shallow, self involved, with a bad temper when provoked. Though violent, Rafe isn't some bloodthirsty son of a bitch - he has morals, and he struggles with the morality of killing, torturing. He doesn't know the full extent of the Nazi actions, and he doesn't know anything other than what propaganda has told him. He's loyal and honest to his peers, and vengeful. Jealous. Protective. He's fighting this war to protect his home and everything that belongs to him. He is also exceedingly persuasive, romantic, and flirtacious around those he views are worthy of his time (or just particularly pretty). He's impulsive and reckless, and has been reprimanded on more than one occasion for his outspoken attitude.
History:
Rafe was born in Sicily, the only son amongst five. He has four sisters - Lena, Elisabeta, Natalia, and Raquele - but his family sent him to Perugia to go to school. His father was also a military man but passed away recently. Raphael was raised in a very strict Catholic household, and he was not wealthy. At all. He was mediocre in school, because he was more interested in cutting class and chasing girls than getting an education. The army was his best opportunity to get his life back on track - and it also stopped him from drinking so much.
