Family Theme

Spoiler: Theme Song

+{WIP}+

Spoiler: Palazzo del Signore

Situated on the coast of Alabano, this estate was built by the natives of Vultaro before the Bella Agitazione, and has been maintained by the Venanzi as their abode in the Archipelago. While certainly not a palace despite its name, it placement guarantees a wonderful view of the sea in the front and the mountains behind the estate.

Spoiler: Casa Azzurra

This estate owned by the Venanzi is the home where the Venanzi of Southern Alabano reside, where they own a small port for shipping their materials and goods in and out of the Empire. The Blue House as it is known in Common isn't named because the house itself is blue, but rather the vast ocean surrounding Casa Azzurra and the port is a deep, dark blue.

First Generation
~*~
​

Ademaro Venanzi (Age Sixty-Eight)
An overall lazy man and the spiritual "leader" of the Venanzi family, for all intents and purposes Ademaro considers himself "retired", unwilling to spend time managing the family. Personality up to interpretation.

Celeste Venanzi (Age Seventy-One)
Ademaro's wife and the mother of their single child. It is recommended that players play Celeste to be somewhat grumpy, especially towards Ademaro. But this can be ignored for a more interpretive personality.

Second Generation
~*~
​

Pellegrino Venanzi (Age Thirty Six) ( @ElSharaawy )
A middle aged man who disowned his former family, and is now currently the patriarch of the Venanzi. A venerable man with a classical Ceardian accent.

Elena Venanzi (Age forty-six)
The family's widow, formerly married to the deceased Jacopo Venanzi. A death that she has not gotten over quite yet.

Insigne Venanzi (Age of death, Forty-seven)
Insigne was an overly jovial sort. Not well cut out for title holding, instead most of his time was spent in leisure, interacting with his children, his wife, and the family in general. While he was not very good with it came to the income of the family, he was generally well liked, loved even. His death at the hands of an illness that rendered him bedridden for several weeks wracked the family to its core. And many have not gotten over it.

Mauro Venanzi (Age Thirty nine)
The baby brother to Insigne Venanzi, He was generally not on very good terms with his brother, or the rest of the family. Quiet and withdrawn at most times. The closest he was to anybody in the family, aside from his own wife and children, was Gino, as the boy was growing up and still rather close to the boy currently.His personality somewhat up to interpretation, this will be the only character we would like to stay more "scripted".

Paolina Venanzi (Age Thirty Seven)
Wife to Mauro Venanzi and the Mother to their Single son. Personality is up to interpretation.

Third Generation
~*~
​

Brigitta Venanzi (Age Twenty-eight)
The oldest of the Insigne and Elena's children, personality up to interpretation.

Firenze Venanzi (Age Twenty-Five)
Recommended that one plays Firenze to be overly friendly, empathetic, sensitive. All the like.

Amorina Venanzi (Age Twenty-One)
Open to interpretation.

Romolo Venanzi (Age Eighteen)
Son of Mauro and Paolina Venanzi, the boy is generally a very fun loving and nearly hedonistic person. Aside from this, the personality is up to the player.

Gino Venanzi (Age Seventeen) ( @HodlinG )
The young son of the late Insigne Venanzi, he still mourns his fathers death internally and isn't the best with people, especially now.

Why join House Venanzi?​

I've been wanting to come topside for awhile now, so I've been looking around at the various people who manage both topside and sewer characters. HodlinG stood out among the few as someone who did both sides very well. That is what drew me to this family in particular, along with an inexplicable infatuation with Dressolini.​

Son of Insigne Venanzi, brother to Gino​

​

Personality​

An openly happy young man, Aren will generally be seen smiling and talking in his usual fast, cheerful manner. An impulsive and hyperactive boy, it is very rare for him to keep his mouth shut for very long whenever in someone else's presence. This was even more the case before his father's death, which had dimmed some of his inner fire. Doing everything with the best intentions possible, Aren strives to make the world a better place for himself and those close to him.​

​

Backstory​

(I am unsure of the exact time Insigne died, so I'm going to omit a majority of its effects on the story until I'm less ignorant on the subject.)
Born 281 AC, he'd practically be running by the time other kids were walking. His innate joy and reckless, rapid attitude was fit to bursting when at the age of seven, his brother Gino was born. At the age of eight, to try and put his energy to use, his father would have him join a Dressolini Fencing class. While not a natural, he fell in love with it, and all that extra energy was pushed into his new favorite pass time. He'd become an Escecusti at 17, but did not become a Championa until the age of 19. He kept at it, winning not only at 19 but at 20, and 21, reaching the level few could boast. But when his father died, he smiled a lot less frequently, and his pride hit an all time low. He'd put himself in the militia as a Terreico Soldier, and participated in whatever armed conflicts the crown isle ordered him to for the next 2 years. It was in the military he learned how short life could be, and it was of little use to mourn forever. When he came back to his family, while not bursting with cheer, he'd have learned to love life again. Now he wants to enjoy himself, and is hoping to help his brother see his point of view.​
