Character Info

Name: Giovanni
Canon: DOGS: Bullets & Carnage
Class: Upper. Blond.
Personality: Giovanni would best be described as obsessive. To a level of extreme, actually. He could be seen as detached from the rest of the world, and and someone who has no problem describing himself as greater than others. He has an inflated ego (just slightly!), and is violet and agressive. He's more than willing to toss aside the lives of others, or his own, on the command of his mother. He doesn't like anyone who's dark haired, and finds himself to be obviously superior. He definitely will not go out of his way to befriend people, nor will he go out of his way to help people. Giovanni is a single individual, and his "siblings" and "Mother" are those only ones allowed near him -- beyond that hateful side of him. He is, in a lot of ways, extremely attached to them, and possessive [mine, mine, mine - do not touch!]

Giovanni, though, on the other side of things, has a sense of humor [he'll laugh or at least look amused at almost anything!], no matter how sick it may appear to be. He laughs at violence, gets a joy out of injury, and is considered a sadist. And he's also a slight masochist. He doesn't like to associate with people he considers below him, and not always judging by hair color, but sometimes on physical capabilities. He is more likely to respect a slightly dark haired person who can beat him in a fight, than a light haired person who can't do anything.

He sets high standards for those he associates with. He's a walking contradiction, he's a hypocrite, and is more likely to complain about the condition of his suit than any injury you have inflicted on him.

In appearance, he is generally a very clean cut person, which deceives his personality greatly. He wears white suits,carries many weapons, and hides his eyes, though no one is sure why, and he won't give that information away.

Background: Giovanni doesn't know anything about who he was before he met his "Mother" (Angelica Einstellsehn), however, he does have events prior to that. Giovanni's parents were dark hairs, and he was quickly given up. "Mother" a woman who loves children, took care of him. Watched after him, and even did things that in a society that highly values light hairs something very questionable -- performed experiments on children. She did not discriminate on what children -- light haired, dark haired, whatever, she would do it. Perhaps it was to see if the dark hairs were truly inferior, no one will really ever know. But there were many of these that Giovanni knew, but as soon as the experiments started, the memory he had prior to meeting Mother, and the experiments was taken away. He knew only her and those other children as his family.

He was raised on the principals that despite the experimentation [and perhaps because of it] he was superior. Incredibly superior to others. Not only dark hairs, but other light hairs. He was strong, he could beat men up three times his size with little effort after a few years of the experiments [it was, however, initially debilitating, as it wore him down immensely and quickly -- and he became something of a weakling in the earliest year or two], and it was found that it did, in fact, increase the physical capacity of many. He was the sixty-eighth child in this set of experiments, and one of the few who genuinely survived them. He was distant and unconcerned for the other children [less competition, after all - and he did so hate having to kill his siblings to get attention].

As far as he was concerned, they were just something standing between himself and mother. Mother is and was his ultimate goal, to please her is what he lived and lives for. She's been the most consistent thing in his life. As a result of the experiments, he has a collar on the back of his neck, screwed in there. It marks him as one of hers, he believes, and keeps him in the position of being someone who was able to survive these experiments, while there were so few who had.

More than recently, Giovanni is an enforcer of sorts. Of course he does it on his own accord. He only enforces the laws that suit him and does pretty much what he wants. He cares very little about JUPITER or the ways of JUPITER, but simply finds that he can almost be thankful to JUPITER, from the stories he was told, he would not know his true "Mother" if it weren't' for the laws against the dark hairs, and if he hadn't been born a light hair. He is not held in high favor of JUPITER, thanks to his aggressive and self-serving personality.

Giovanni, part 3.

Sample Third Person:
Giovanni purposely walked near pick-pockets. He purposely would get something stolen, just to get in a fight, to have a reason to cut off the fingers or shoot the arm of the thief. He would do it because he was bored, not for any other reason. He didn't feel as though he needed to justify himself, anyway. Giovanni was a man, that as a light hair, did what he wanted.

Three...two... one, he mentally counted, he always liked to give the others a head start in his games. It didn't really matter how much time, he quickly learned. He would, eventually, catch up to them. It took him much longer to exhaust than it took many people. Especially those he played with, it was, after all -- always a game of sorts. Much like a dog chasing a car, he would leap after them with the smile apparent on his face. He could see them, trying to slip around a corner. And he would let them think that maybe, just maybe, they will have gotten away. That this game wasn't as much fun for him as he had initially thought, look bored for a brief few moments, and then his speed would pick up.

Giovanni turned a corner, eyes on that dark hair, who dared to look back, and that moment, they did, they stumbled. The look of horror on his face told Giovanni that he knew he was caught, but he still tried to run. Their pace slowing the further they went. And as soon as their body made keeping balance difficult, Giovanni was there, slender fingers tight around the wrist of the dark hair. He pulled that dark hair up by that wrist, grabbed his wallet [empty as it was, a decoy, of course, JUPITER forbid someone actually manage to lose him with something valuable], and returned it to his pocket. His fingers tightened, snapping the wrist of the boy who had dared touch him, or his things [it was, after all, their fault since they were the ones being the thief, not his own who had seemingly planned the entire scenario]. "Your adrenaline disappoints me, most of them run faster." And with a few swift moves, Giovanni tossed the boy into a brick wall, lifted up his foot, and kicked across the dark hair's face, successfully breaking his nose.

"Next time you want to be so daring, at least try and keep up. Now I have to find someone who's interesting to play with me," he sighed, sounding almost sad, as he shifted his fingers to push up the orange glasses on his nose. He pulled his cellphone out of his pocket and called an ambulance. "Hello, oh, this is Giovanni," he told the dispatcher, "there's a boy here who looks terribly beaten up. Yes, I'll pay the bill. Just send someone to take care of it. He has a gunshot wound, and a broken nose." He listed the address, hung up, then lifted his gun, and shot the boy in the shoulder. "Better luck next time~?"

Sample Journal Entry:
That was a waste. I mean, walking isn't that hard, is it~? I'm so relieved that boy is alright now, though~ broken nose and all. But I doubt he'll be picking my pocket ever again. I really like keeping my things on myself, thank you.

Speaking of, be careful of who's pocket you pick, would you dark hairs~? Stop acting like a mongrel instead of a dignified dog. Have some pride, even I can have some respect for those who aren't just wasting their time with nonsense. Stealing is for scum, after all. ♥ I'm just very grateful I managed to defend myself so well from someone attempting to take something that belonged to me. Quite rude, don't you think~? I mean, I earned that money, isn't it rude just to take what is mine? I mean, you act like it grows on trees, and it most certainly does not.

I really am fond of this method of communication, it keeps me in contact with the slums without having to go into them.
