Malocchio Aderre

Malocchio Aderre

Introduced as a major antagonist and villain in the module The Evil Eye, Malocchio Aderre is the current temporal leader of Invidia. He is the child of the Gentleman Caller and Gabrielle Aderre, the latter of whom remains darklord despite the usurpation of her political authority by Aderre. His maternal grandmother is Isabella Aderre and his grandfather is likely Vlad Drakov. Thus although he may not know it, he bears both the the bloodline of Madame Eva and the bloodline of Vlad Drakov flowing through his veins in addition to being half-fiend.

Despite being only one eighth Vistani, Malocchio is and has been recognized as the second Dukkar, male Vistana with the Sight, prophesied to bring great evil to the Vistani people. He performs this role well. The hunting of Vistani is the passion of Malocchio Aderre, and there is no evidence that he draws a line at giomorgo ("half-vistani"), or even quarter-vistani, including his mother Gabrielle Aderre. No giomorgo is safe within Invidia or near its borders.

Malocchio divides his time between Castle Loupet, the Citadel in Karina, and hunts. Thanks to the bloody wars fought between the forces of Malocchio and his mother Gabrielle, Invidia remains a land divided.

History

In the ___ of 746 BC, the Gentleman Caller beguiled Gabriele Aderre and left her pregnant with his seed. Gabrielle gave birth to their child in the ____ of 747 BC. Right from the beginning, Gabrielle intended to raise her son to be a weapon of genocide against the Vistani people that had wronged her. Malocchio matured unnaturally quickly and took to the role like a fish in water. If anything, Gabrielle was too effective in building a hatred of the Vistani within her son.

He gave Novgor to Azrael Dak.
