Persona: Aloof, unaffected captain with an eye for picking out what your sensitive about.
Nature: Weedy little nerd accountant with an anxiety disorder.
This amnesiac gangster is familiar enough amongst the bootleggers to have been accepted into their ranks, but no have been able to truly identify him. A misanthrope who believes people only seek to use each other for their own gain, he attempts to distance himself from the social curtesy he sees as the ultimate lie and live honestly. Unfortunately he is honestly rather a mischievous asshole who finds other people's reactions to his provocation funny.
Vendetta was found washed ashore with a bullet in his skull and no memory of his former life by a high ranking member of The Alighieri Syndicate who claimed to be his uncle. Having already "found" his family Ven saw no reason to make any further attempts to reconnect with his roots until years later the truth came out, that the man who had claimed to be his blood had no living connection to him and was simply taking advantage of a vulnerable new spirit for his own gain, at which point any record of Vedetta's life had been long buried. Betrayed but unable to quit the Syndicate, Ven instead opted to move out of Canary Row, down to the Docks to be away from his fake family.
He now runs multiple successful ventures down there on his own, including The Wooden Overcoat Speakeasy, a seemingly legitimate buisiness (as far as the taxman is concerned) but known to be a meeting place of some of the Dock's most rowdy residents.
Background
SPOILERS
In his original life Vendetta was Virgil Accardi, an accountant who became head of a bootlegging operation when his twin brother Dante took to moonshine to help erase his student debt. Quickly he outpaced his brother's enthusiasm, finding the more exciting life of a gangster to be far better suited to him then his old office job, and it was all down hill from there.
Virgil was shot in the head when a deal with a local speakeasy went arwy. Virgil went up to the bigger organisation smooth out tensions while his brother and neice prepared to leave the state to safety. Because his twin left the country, and because his face had been disfigured by the gunshot, the police could not figure out if the body they found was Virgil's or Dante's and he was thus marked as a John Doe.
