Enzo De Luca
Enzo De Luca is a man of Chondathan stock originally from the city of Arrabar. Enzo is a lithe man in his early forties, his face is framed by a short black beard flecked with grey, his hair is long and wild.
Enzo spends much of his time accompanied by his posse, a Dwarf by the name of Oden Thundercrag, an Elven woman known only as Tuviel, and a pair of Minotaur mercenaries.
Enzo disappeared from public life some years prior and was thought my most to be dead, it was only during a heist on the De Luca auction house in Neverwinter that Enzo revealed his identity as the disinherited member of the De Luca family fortune and Achille De Luca's twin brother. Enzo grew up to be a whoremonger and gambler which his brother despised, believing that Enzo having any stake in the business would bring its ruin. Enzo tells another story of when his father died and his inheritance was set to save him from the long-delayed debts piled at his door, Achille stole their father's will and replaced it with a forgery disinheriting Enzo and casting him out. But this was not sufficient for Achille, he paid for an assassin to eliminate his brother and make it look like an accident to tie off this loose end. Enzo managed to survive his encounter with the assassin, knowing his brother would send more hired killers, Enzo arranged the scene to suggest the assassin had in fact been successful, he fled and turned to a life of crime to subsist, assuming the identity of the very assassin that had been sent to end his life.
Events Of 'The De Luca Job':
On the night of the newly constructed De Luca House's inaugural auction on Ches 19, 1495 DR, a group of thieves masquerading as guests of De Luca and his house staff broke into the De Luca House vault and robbed a great deal of the treasures within. Other guests confirm that shortly before the auction De Luca met with the Elven merchant Brandyl Orbryn (in fact the Elven criminal Luka Iquibrill in disguise), and his manservant 'Brick' (in fact the Goliath enforcer Nostag Gumeel) seemingly to discuss the sale of a metal statue they had brought with them the very same metal construct was seen later that night bounding through the streets following the criminals as they escaped through the streets on a stolen wagon. The Elf posing as Orbryn and his Goliath companion are believed to have not acted alone, with a number of other individuals spotted fleeing with them. It is also believed they were assisted from within De Luca's own staff, as the time it took them to gain entry to the vault was considered too expedient not to have been assisted from within, with the false Orbryn and his compatriot disappearring from the auction floor in the middle of the event's intermission. It was not until Orbryn and his compatriot were missed that suspicion was aroused, with guests attesting that De Luca entered his office and emerged bellowing in a state of anger and panic that the auction was off and to summon the watch. While some of his men removed the guests, De Luca and a large number of his household guards stormed the vault to stop them, that is when the sound of an explosion rocked the building and the panicking guests fled. It is unknown what precisely went on, however, when officers of the Wintershield Watchmen arrived they found the vault's defenses cracked wide open, the main vault in a state of disarray, and De luca and his guards dead, the Watchmen also discovered a hidden passage beneath the vault made up from old Neverwinter's disused sewerage tunnels which had been blown open with explosives, presumably for the thieves to escape. A few days after the robbery Enzo presented himself before Dagult Neverember, carrying with him a filigreed silver box. Enzo explained who he was and presented the papers held in the box, his deceased father's will among others, naming him as the sole heir to the family fortune, and thus, the De Luca House and its collected treasures.Relationships
