Firo Prochainezo

Firo Prochainezo is the youngest executive of Manhattan's Martillo Family Camorra. He became a complete immortal in November 1930 after accidentally drinking Szilard Quates' immortality elixir at a party celebrating his own promotion.

Appearance Firo is a boyish young man with brown hair and brown eyes (sometimes depicted as red), and commonly wears a pearl-green suit and matching fedora in the 1930s. He is highly self-conscious about his youthful,

Personality

For a member of the Camorra, Firo can be a surprisingly friendly, humorous and compassionate person. According to the Gandor brothers, Firo is brash and naive, and in a way someone who fits in with being a Camorrista but is unsuited towards being a criminal. He is not afraid to confront people, nor is he worried about the impression he leaves since he is simply being himself. Anyone who knows anything of the Martillos knows well not to bother Firo, or they will find out just how much trouble they have gotten themselves into. Firo considers himself neither a 'do-gooder' nor a 'fiend', but someone who falls somewhere in the middle. Occasionally he performs good deeds, such as rushing to a fire or donating money, but he is still ruthless and can be vengeful to an extent. More often than not Firo is blunt, commonly exasperated by those he finds oddballs, and can be negative to the point of being shockingly cruel. Violence comes easy to him, in short and highly brutal spurts. On the other hand, his waspishness tends to be directed toward those acting hostile, provocative, or who have otherwise irritated him. In fact, Firo is unexpectedly good with people and is naturally social; he attracts friends easily, even those whose friendship he may not necessarily desire. Firo is moreover absolutely loyal to the Martillos and cares deeply about those close to him Firo does not actively look for trouble himself. However, he does have a tendency to meddle: If something is going on and he happens to be around, more often than not he will either investigate or forcibly involve himself in the situation. Even before becoming immortal, Firo was never afraid to take risks. He did not hesitate to join the Camorra, and he had never been one to back out on anything. Notably, Firo has some deep-seated issues with femininity that stem from a childhood incident wherein he was mistaken for a girl and nearly molested. He generally avoids what he perceives to be 'feminine' and has a complex about being called 'girly' and even mistaken for a woman, suggesting that feminine traits carry some stigma for him. This does not mean he dislikes women—on the contrary, he views and treats women with chivalrous intentions: he will not hit a woman and considers any man who lays a hand on a woman as 'scum'. In addition, he is incredibly shy when it comes to romance and refrains from taking the initiative even when his feelings are obvious. All of these traits can be traced back to the aforementioned incident, making it one of the most formative events of his childhood. He furthermore nurses insecurities about his youthful "baby-face" appearance and position in life compared to the people around him, many of whom are exceedingly talented. He will habitually compare himself to Claire Stanfield (often in terms of confidence and abilities) and to the Gandor brothers (particularly Luck Gandor in terms of maturity), believing from childhood that they were surpassing him. Having idolized movie-depictions of Italian gangsters from a young age, Firo has always been in a hurry to 'grow up' and be entrusted with mature responsibilities, hence his annoyance when he is commonly dismissed as a 'kid'. He has a clear idea of what he should be as a man and Camorra executive and thus attempts to "act cool" even though he will frequently act based on emotion. As someone with little schooling, he considers himself neither book-smart nor possessing high intelligence.

Abilities Firo is formidable with a knife, having been taught knife-fighting by Ronny and Molsa during his years as a Martillo associate. He is also quite capable in unarmed combat, thanks to Yaguruma teaching him wrestling moves. He is also a talented gambler, and is extremely good at catching others at cheating. Immortality As a complete immortal, the only way Firo can 'die' is if another immortal devours him. He can also transmit information to Ennis, since she is his linked homunculus.
