Appearance: Cristofolo doesn't look like a noble should. He's not especially well-groomed - shaving slips his mind and his long hair is just prone to tangles, what do you mean a brush would help? - but always well-dressed. This discrepancy leads some to mistake him for a servant rather than a lord's son, but he laughs any such mistakes away. His easy smile and bright eyes are another oddity; most nobles don't grin so broadly, and even his friends have to admit that Cristofolo has a laugh like a hyena. It's very obviously genuine, and he laughs even harder when teased about it. His smiles are broad and toothy, his lips full and curved like his mother's. He takes after her in most respects, which unfortunately only fuels the rumor that he's not his father's son at all. His hair is dark brown, nearly black, and falls to his shoulders in waves. If he's trying to impress he'll brush it and tie it back, but it's usually so far off his radar that he lets it stay loose and tangled.
Most of his features are over-large. His nose is big and dented at the tip, his mouth wide and his lips thick, and his eyes are a strikingly pale hazel, gold in some lights. Everyone praises them as his best feature, and they're extremely effective in making people trust him and his intentions. The clothes he wears are generally commisioned from the artists his family funds, and so always well-tailored and colored to suit him. They might have the occasional inkstain (he loves his sister, loves his sister), but Cristofolo rarely notices and most of his friends have simply stopped pointing this shit out.
Languages Known: Spanish, English, Latin. Skills: A decent sketch artist, calm and polite even in unpleasant situations, can easily switch between languages, well-read, and good with animals (his horse and his hunting dogs are his bbs). Strengths: Will tolerate most insults, taunts, or pestering without a fuss (this is not always a strength), wins trust easily, a good listener, eager, and kind. Weaknesses: Easily manipulated, curious to a fault (who cares if it's immoral? he wants to see), forgetful, easily flustered, and extremely stubborn.
