Luigi Goterelli

Luigi Goterelli was a caporegime of the Maranzalla Crime Syndicate, and the owner of a nightclub named Luigi's Sex Club 7. He was notable for being the only high-ranking member of the Maranzalla Syndicate besides Tony Ciparini to be spared by The Lost Episode Resistance. Unbeknownst to Maranzalla, Luigi Goterelli had become a trusted associate of The Lost Episode Resistance which led to his life being spared. Following Maranzalla's death and Tony's takeover, Luigi became the new underboss.

## Background

Not much is really known about Luigi's background other than the fact he has been a close associate of Maranzalla for years likely since 2001 when he was arrested for stolen property. With Maranzalla's support, Goterelli purchased his own nightclub: Luigi's Sex Club 7 in London's famed red light district. The nightclub is used as a regular hangout and meeting place for members of the Maranzalla Syndicate, and Goterelli frequently holds meetings there with his associates. Out of the three capos, Luigi is considered the least powerful, but still makes a great deal of revenue through his nightclub and other rackets including a highly profitable gambling racket.

## Involvement With Ciparini

Unlike Mickey Hamfists, Luigi Goterelli is shown to be a good friend of Tony Ciparini and his bodyguard Derek. He also asks Tony to do a favour for him every once in awhile, and Luigi pays Tony back by supplying him with information about the latest going on in the gang. Luigi also later warns Tony about Maranzalla putting him on his hitlist. After killing Rocco Scarpa, Tony receives another call from Luigi who says that he understands why Tony killed Scarpa, but the pair can't talk anymore as he doesn't want to also earn a place on Maranzalla's hitlist.

## The Offer

Later, Luigi and recently promoted underboss Mickey Hamfists accompanied Maranzalla to witness Officer Ran getting arrested by some corrupt cops on their payroll. Maranzalla offers Ran a choice: tell him about the Resistance's operations in the Garment Centre or be arrested with a very heavy sentence. Ran refuses the offer, and manages to overpower the corrupt cops, but is then confronted by a huge crew of Maranzalla's men. Maranzalla and Hamfists leave Goterelli to kill Ran, but Goterelli defies his boss' command, by helping Ran finish off all of the assassins who had been sent to kill him. Goterelli again declines to join up with the Resistance, but promises to keep in touch.

## The Final Countdown

Shortly after Maranzalla's death, Goterelli appears at the Cornwall Compound to inform Tony Ciparini, but is brushed aside as the Resistance is busy with having to fight Rabe Maniels who has triggered the end of the universe. Luigi offers his help, and he and Officer Ran distract all the corrupt cops by creating a diversion allowing for the Resistance to get the chance to kill Maniels.

## Epilogue

With Maranzalla and Hamfists dead, Tony Ciparini became the Don of the newly renamed Ciparini Crime Syndicate, and appointed Goterelli as his underboss. Not much else is really known about Goterelli's fate, but he presumably went back to running his nightclub and Tony's other rackets.
