== Personality ==
* Traits:
** He knows how to be diplomatic and charming, but he also knows how to be ruthless and cunning, and it’s sometimes hard to tell which
** He does not like to discuss his life before marrying into the Safiosi family and becomes visibly flustered when confronted with something from his past
** He will entertain notions of romance and adventure, but will ultimately stick to his responsibilities.
** Voracious reader of adventure stories and poetry
* Goal: Money and power
* Flaw: Though he often has to be cold and calculating for his life in a powerful family with ties to the mafia, he has much more sympathy and care than he lets on - and that is sometimes exploited
* Biggest fear: Being forced to hurt someone he cares about
* One thing they want more than anything else: Happiness - he sees wealth and power as a route to this, but he sometimes finds other ways to get it
* Pop culture influences (who are they like): Miguel Prado (Dexter season 3)
* Tics / mannerisms to help GMs portray them consistently:
** Though very confident, there’s a hint of sadness and remorse in what he does and says - but only a hint.
** If he has to deliver a threat, rather than get loud and violent, he gets quiet and descriptive, laying out what will happen if his demands are not met.
** He carries a cane and, when trying to look authoritative, will rest his hands on top of it with it out in front of him, looking as regal as a statue. He does not actually need the cane and it is used as a weapon when he needs one.

== Background / Personal history ==
* He comes from a wealthy family that had business ties with the Safiosi family. The family arranged the marriage of Francisco to Isabela Rossi to solidify this union.
* As an escape from the socially draining life of a noble, he would often retreat to The Prince’s Gamble tavern. There, he met Arianna Oakenheel, a server there.
* Weeks before his wedding, Arianna and Francisco had a brief affair, which caused Francisco to stop going to the Prince’s Gamble to avoid news of this affair reaching his family.
* Francisco still keeps a copy of the poem Arianna read to him on the night of their affair.
* As a result of the affair, Arianna conceived and gave birth to “Two-Hands” Rinn Oakenheel. Two-Hands never learned the identity of his father, and Francisco never learned that he had fathered a son.
* Francisco never visited the Prince’s Gamble tavern again and thus never learned that Arianna died of pneumonia 5 years after their affair.
