Lappland Saluzzo (Arknights)

The bloodthirsty Infected Siracusan Lupo named Lappland Saluzzo is the daughter of Alberto Saluzzo, the current don of the powerful Saluzzo famiglia, who despises her to be an untamed beast due to her maniacal, unhinged behavior. During the annihilation of the Texas famiglia seven years ago (the year 1092), Lappland led her squad to conduct the purge, but she later defied her father's order when she suddenly became obsessed with Cellinia Texas, the sole survivor of the family, and wished to challenge her in a duel. As a matter of fact, Alberto banished her from the family forever and labeled her as a "lone wolf" – a Lupine outcast. Even then, her banishment does not stop her craving to have another duel with Cellina, whom she sees as a "coward" in her eyes, and bring "the old Texas" back in the process.

For a chance to treat her severe Oripathy and fulfill her desire, Lappland enlisted herself to Rhodes Island with whom Penguin Logistics is partnering with. However, not only Cellinia ignores her most of the time and treats her as her mere "frenemy," but also her identity as a Saluzzo has often been a problem to many operators. Because of this, R.I. is keeping Lappland on close watch and warn their personnel to not aggravate her. Notably, they give warning to specific ones who possess connection with Siracusa such as Projekt Red the "Wolf Hunter" and a "Fang" of "Grandma" the "Signora de Lupi", and Lisa aka. Suzuran whose mother hails from a certain famiglia.

Lappland was once the "playmate" of a young Cellinia Texas, who was sent to Siracusa to revisit her roots, raised to near-perfection in her youth. While not exactly friends nor enemies, they would often be competitive at things. Cellinia somehow obscured Lappland in being "the perfect Siracusan" despite being Columbian herself, and this led Lappland to resent everything Siracusan. Things changed when the Giuseppe-led Texas famiglia later severed ties with Siracusa by killing Salvadore, in which Lappland herself led the Saluzzo branch of the Siracusan coalition, aimed to exterminate the Texas famiglia from the face of Terra. This is where things ultimately soured for Alberto and his daughter, long decried to be unhinged and untamed; Lappland directly disobeyed orders, attempted to deal with Texas herself, causing her own famiglia to incur heavy losses.

Disowned and banished as a result, she has since considered her father as an enemy and actively seeks for an opportunity to kill him. Apparently, Alberto felt the same way, and was merely restraining himself. Lappland was astounded to see Texas watch her own bloodline burn down, a figurative act of rebellion that long left an impression in the lone wolf, inspiring her to do the same thing, though she did not understand it at first. At the return of Cellinia to Siracusa, Lappland followed her, hoping for the "old" Texas to finally resurface, and perhaps, be treated to a long-sought-after deathmatch. Interestingly, Lappland does not antagonize Cellinia and in fact comes to her aid, for as long as their motives align. After all, if Lappland wanted Texas dead, nothing must come in the way of the two of them, her own closure, and the ultimate destruction of everything Siracusan.
