To many Italy means Rome, the Colosseum, Gladiators and Legionaries. That was the case for me too. Until I went to the Venetian carnival. I instantly fell in love with those costumes.
To me the first thing that comes to my mind when i think of Italy is Venice and so i decided to make a character representing Italy. Even though I'm not from Italy myself.
The Jester
A man pretending to be a fool. Always around high ranking people, never one of them. Invisible in plain sight. Nobody expects the fool to be anything but a fool.
Which makes him the perfect assassin. Hidden weapons in the long flowing sleeves, a mask to hide his features and soft shoes to hide his steps.
