Giovanni Elio

Giovanni Elio or just "**Gio**" is a Grade Three Cursed Sorcerer and a member of the infamous family, the Elio Clan, a clan that lives in infamy for their influence within the Cursed World. He's also a first year at Tokyo Metropolitan Curse Technical College, rivaling his fraternal Alessandro Elio.

## Appearance

Giovanni is of average height and has an athletic build. He is usually seen wearing a sleeping-mask on his head like a pair of sunglasses. His eyes are black with a golden, glowing spot in the center.

## Personality

Giovanni unlike his fraternal twin brother isn't someone who lives in a constant happy or joyous state, but instead is someone much more down to earth, smiling not because he's happy but mostly just or enjoy the relaxing moment given. Giovanni is also so down to earth he openly shares his opinions on matters, not really the type pulling his words back when something to others, choosing to speak his mind out even when it's things others would rather he kept to himself such. It's not out of disrespect or lack there of, but more because Gio would rather just live as openly as possible, not the type to hold secrets from others. Thus he lives an open life, such as when his family gave him the option of either becoming a sorcerer or live a normal life, with Gio picking to become a sorcerer but admitting he won't give up his previous life.

Though something notable about him that contradicts his usual lifestyle is his inability and not wanting to talk about his family, usually doing his best to not affiliate themselves with them. When brought up, Gio simply does his best to ignore the conversations as a whole. This stems from his bad relations with his family as his family had been looked down on for being from one if the further branches of the clan and were only "accepted" because his brother was born with their inherited technique. Even with his own brother, Gio does his best to not relate to him so much. As Gio is much cockier, in charge, and full of himself which was what made their once close friendship and brotherhood into a rotted flower.

Giovanni has also been seen cooking, usually called a really good cook, with traditional Italian and Japanese dishes being his specialties. This helps reflect his more caring nature, as he doesn't mind cooking with or for others, doing so with a smile on his face.

## Battle Prowess

**Master Hand to Hand Combatant**:Thanks to his father's support, Giovanni was enrolled into pankration training from an early age. Pankrarion an ancient Greek martial art made famous through the Olympics, mythology and the Roman Coliseum. It combines techniques from both boxing and wrestling, but he is also quite proficient with utilizing his legs offensively as well. He's very skilled in utilizing powerful strikes in the form of punches, elbows, and kicks to overwhelm his opponent with his sheer power and speed. His locks and throws are extremely well done, precise, and possess terrifying effectiveness in battle. This helps him to switch his method of attack from placing pressure to quickly shifting into a defensive state to find a weakness.Opponents have mentioned that he can follow their footsteps without losing focus meaning he can keep constant pressure and always keep the distance closed.

Because of just how physical this martial art is, being one that focuses on turning the the entire body into a force to reckoned, it
mixes extremely well with Giovanni's Cursed Body innate technique. Delivering a flurry of punches at the speed of a full automatic riffle, tackle a being through walls, make such sharp and precise kicks that he can even cut a tree down.

Cursed Body:By pouring his cursed energy into target, he can greatly modify and enhance specific physical capabilities of said target.
