((another one by @malkavian-shrink , ty!!
Full Name: Mercurio Nicolo Vincento Damiani
Voice Claim: André Sogliuzzo (aka the guy who played him in vtmb)
Face Claim: ngl im terrible with faces so i for the life of me cannot think of who would be a good Mercurio faceclaim. One of my friends said Jerma. I cannot get that out of my mind so fuck it i guess Jerma just a lot more tired and rough lookin
Home town: New York, specifically Brooklyn
Race: White, Ventrue Ghoul
Body type: Somewhat muscular but otherwise lean and tall
Hair colour: Auburn or like a dark Ginger
Skin color: he used to be pretty tan and have visible freckles, but since he started working with vampires his skin has dulled quite a bit
Distinguishing features: strong jawline, tired eyes. He goes multiple days without sleeping and you can Tell. His chest and arms are quite hairy as well. He can look intimidating when first approaching him, though once you know him you know he's got the sweetest soul
Psychology: He's subconsciously pretty self destructive; never really putting himself first. His whole life he's taken care of or served others, so it's hard for him to care about his own wellbeing. His struggles with alcohol dependency is on and off, which stems from his substantial bit of trauma related to his time in the Mob, as well as many Camarilla missons that ended in people he cared for dying. He also likely has some sort of behavioural disorder, but due to the time period he grew up in he never got any help.
Physical health: Decently healthy, though in recent years his back has begun to ache. He is 72, after all.
Parents: Vincento and Rosetta Damiani: Italian immigrants who came to America looking for a better start. He loved them and they loved him back, but both were extremely busy and tended to leave him to his own devices as a child. He's not sure when his father passed, but his mother died in the 90s soon before he left New York. He sent flowers anonymously to her funeral.
Siblings: Mercurio is #3 of 6 children; he has an older brother and sister, a younger sister and two younger brothers. Growing up he was considered the "problem child" as most middle children are. He was also extremely protective over his younger siblings. As far as he knows most of his siblings are alive, save his older brother who was drafted and never came back.
Extended family: Quite a few nieces and nephews he has never met
Accent: He has a fairly strong Brooklyn accent, though it's less so compared to when he was a kid.
Titles: None formally, but has in passing been called "the Prince's ghoul," just "that ghoul," as well as "the weapons guy"
Talents: weapon modification, sewing, smuggling, cooking, and information gathering are his main talents. He's also trying his hand at miniature building
Favorite colour: Orange, yellow and purple
Favourite food: Oh, he could go on forever about food. It's difficult to choose just one dish! some of his favourites though are Melanzane di Parmigiana, Osso Buco, Gnocci, and of course any type of pasta.
Favourite animals: Dogs. He absolutely adores dogs. Any breed, any size, but he has a soft spot for golden retrievers and aussie shepherds
Pets: None at the moment, but he wants a dog.
Friends: He doesn't have the time to make a lot of meaningful friendships outside of Lacroix, Anja, John, and the Sheriff. Though he is quite friendly with some of the other Ghouls in town, as well as quite a few late-night convenience store/restaurant employees.
