Physical Description (as detailed as possible please, pictures not accepted.): Androginous, short young man with shoulder-long black hair and brown eyes. Thin and usually un-bearded. With the correct attire he may pass as a woman. He is somehow stronger than he looks.
Mental Description/Personality: He speaks little, but tries not to appear arrogant because of it. Gahetano thinks about himself as a hired assasin (not the glamorous kind of assasin, more the mobster kind) and about his proffesion as "Killing people out for money". So he can be, also, quite grim. Not so much a serious or professional guy, but a sad one, who has accepted his destiny. Enemies are just corpses that still defend themshelves. For what he is concerned, if the money equals the risk, then it's ok. He's not sure what will he do if he achieves richness or power. The idea of power is, perhaps, more into his mind, than the ideo of money.
Background/History: Gahetano's family fell in disgrace after an electoral change in the Republic of Verezzo. The sudden loss of power by the Reds ruined his father, and the Green medic in the village didn't treat his consequent illness due to the lack of payment. Gahetano, then, used his relationship with the doctor's daughter to gain access to the medic's house, disguise himself as her, and... the next morning the doctor was tied to his bed, strangled with a cotton stocking. There were a broken window, vomit nearby said window and the doctor's daughter was drunk in her room.
After that, Gahetano sold everything he had and joined several groups of mercenaries and adventurers. In the border princes he was involved in the prosecution an assasination of two emmisaries from Drakenhoff castle. Particularly messy assasinations that included one horse and one misterious undead warrior. Now, howewer, Barbaggi re-appears with no apparent links to that past, taking his chances once more, in the mercenary market.
