Background= Hannibal Lecter was born in Lithuania to Count Lecter, a Lithuanian aristocrat and Simonetta Sforza-Lecter, an Italian mother. Orphaned at a young age, Hannibal became something of a father figure to his younger sister Mischa after their parents died. Mischa was one of the few people in his life that Hannibal would ever truly love, caring about her so much that he denied his early homicidal tendencies for her. Under unknown circumstances, Mischa was killed, and Hannibal ate her remains as a way of forgiving her for making him deny his true self. At the age of 16, he was adopted by his uncle Robertus and his aunt, Lady Murasaki. Hannibal became very close to Murasaki’s handmaiden, Chiyoh, and they began to think of each other as family. Hannibal eventually found the man who was believed to have killed Mischa and wanted to kill him. Chiyoh, however, managed to dissuade Hannibal from doing this, so he decided to leave the man’s life in Chiyoh’s hands. Chiyoh decided to keep the man a prisoner under Castel Lecter as punishment. Sometime after leaving Castle Lecter, Hannibal journeyed to Florence, which is where he first began his career as a serial killer. He crafted his victims into images that were described as “haunting.” Hannibal‘s work eventually caused him to be given the name “Il Mostro di Firenze," translated as “the Monster of Florence.” Hannibal was considered a suspect in the crime by inspector Rinaldo Pazzi, but despite a search of his home, no evidence could be found that connected Hannibal to these crimes. Eventually, another man was convicted of being Ill Mostro simply because of his character, and Hannibal soon after left Florence. Hannibal came to America after receiving an Internship at Johns Hopkins Medical School because of his drawings. Hannibal studied to become an M.D. but eventually chose to leave the field of medicine in favor of becoming a psychiatrist. Hannibal used his position of power to persuade some of his more susceptible patients into committing murders, mostly because he was curious to see what would happen. Hannibal also continued killing people, preferring to kill those he deemed as ”rude” because they were no better than “pigs” to him. Hannibal became known as the Chesapeake Ripper, a serial killer who would mutilate his victims. At the same time, they were alive, and he surgically removed their organs so he could cook them, preferably when he was hosting a dinner party. This led Hannibal to meet Will Graham, who he took a keen interest in and who he sensed as similar-minded. Likes=Art, intellectual challenges, gourmet cuisine, classical music, psychology. Dislikes=Mediocrity, rudeness, conformity. Hobbies=Reading, cooking, hosting dinner parties, painting, music appreciation. )
