Bruno Serioso - il capo

I. THE IDENTITY

Full Name: Bruno Serioso
Moniker: “The Ivory Bishop”
Other Aliases: The Silent Gambitor
Role: High-Profile Hitman / Tactical Advisor / Club Proprietor
Age in 1987: 42
Vibe: Immaculate, cold, and calculated. A study in contrasts: a man who demands perfection and absolute silence. His presence is as sharp as his tailored suits, like a master chess player thinking many moves ahead. His nickname comes from his preference for spotless white attire and his strategic, often unexpected, positioning.

II. PHYSICAL PRESENCE

The Silhouette: Tall, broad-shouldered, and rigid with a military-like bearing. His tailored white suits are always pressed and clean.

The Face: Sharp, chiseled features, a perfectly groomed mustache, and a cold, piercing gaze that feels like it’s looking through you.

The Wardrobe: Exquisite, multi-piece white and cream suits, immaculate white fedoras, and gold accessories (a heavy watch, a discreet tie clip). He never leaves a trace, including a stain.

The Trademark Item: The very club he controls, “The Lounge,” where he holds court.

III. THE BACKSTORY

The Origin: Bruno was a cornerstone of Valient City before the Moretti takeover. He was a high-level enforcer who used intelligence and strategy, not just brute force. He established “The Lounge” as a high-class front for the Syndicate’s upper management. He is not a street cleaner; he is the elegant precision instrument when the highest value targets must be removed without leaving any trail.

The Motivation: Control and perfection. He doesn’t just want to eliminate problems; he wants to create elegant tactical solutions. A successful hit is a perfectly executed gambit. He enjoys the silent dance.

The Hook: “By the time you realize you’re a target, it’s over… and he’s already moved on.”

The Threat: When Bruno arrives, it’s not for a street fight. It’s for a surgical strike. If he is at “The Lounge,” it’s a warning. If he leaves “The Lounge,” it’s a sentence.

IV. GAME MECHANICS (The “Game of Death”)

Main Role: Tactical Aggressor (Passive). Bruno’s presence on the board allows his Boss to force an opponent to reroll any successful attack (1-6) on the Boss once per game.

Specialist Skill: Silent Gambit (Active). Once per game, Bruno can attempt a Hit on any player within 3 spaces. However, since they do not occupy the same space, they can not return fire.

The Result: When activated, this skill allows the player controlling Bruno to target an opponent up to 3 board spaces away. Since the Bishop moves with such stealth precision, there is no opportunity for return fire even if the shot is missed.

Execution Difficulty (ED: 7): The attacker must spin a 7 or higher (7 through 10) to successfully Whack Bruno. He is known to be as difficult to pin down as an empty chair in a crowded room.
