Born December 22nd

A well known virtuoso of the piano, and plays as though tapping the heartstrings.

Grew up in Versailles (France) with his younger siblings during the beginnings of the Belle Époque.

Oldest of all his siblings

Belongs to a noble house known for their patronage of the musical arts. Many members from the extended family are talented musicians or composers.

As it was a time of political stability, music flourished and so did Gino’s career.

He tends to be drawn piano or violin/piano solos, but dislikes writing for what is deemed popular by society.

Was offered a job to teach at a college in London mainly for the arts. He was originally hesitant but was urged by his family due to the seemingly stable political status of Europe and to finally get him out of the house. Brought his younger sister Euphemia along with him. Has lived in London for around 7 years.

Misses his country immensely, but wouldn’t put the strain of returning on his sister and niece

However he does not necessarily miss the rest of his family. Many of the “talented” artists have been caught or suspected for plagiarism or theft of pieces, as well as conspiring against different sides of the family.

Currently he is very uninspired and is searching for his muse.

He discovered he was bisexual a long time ago, but due to his family’s insensitivity he keeps it firmly to himself and his sister.

Has incurred many of the repercussions of his family's actions despite he himself not being at fault.

Speaks English and French

Has not been able to balance a steady relationship with his work.

Has many expectations placed on his shoulders and is not quick to show any vulnerability.

Grew up mostly around the men of his family, who had extremely toxic masculinity ideals. The surface fragility was beat out of him as a child.

Although he did learn to defend himself at a young age because of this. Beware of his kicks.

Rides and tends to horses as a hobby.
