Prost!

Now, is death the end or a new beginning?

[Agamemnon]

I guess it's my turn to join the party.

Assuming I get a final thumbs up from the ThirtyThr33, Gasparo Gritti will join the fold.

About time.

Assuming I get a final thumbs up from the ThirtyThr33, Gasparo Gritti will join the fold.

I was like, "Gritti? That sounds kinda familiar..."

And then it struck me.

Andrea Gritti, the Doge (Duke) of Venice. Trying desperately to pull Venice out of a losing war his predecessor almost lost. Has a long and distinguished diplomatic and military career.

Andrea Gritti

Are we talking about the Doge's bastard?!?!

Come on, you've ruined the twist before Gasparo even walked on stage...

Gritti seems to be an intensely private person, speaking little of himself or his acquaintances. Rumor has him painted as a base-born bastard of some important noble, though his parentage will change depending on the rumor's source. These rumors will often also hint at the ill response at those who should breach the subject.

See, Benedict? He's already threatening us.

What surprise? It's common knowledge that Gritti is the Doge of Venice, even for Ferran.

Want a real twist? Gasparo being the Pope's bastard, posing as Gritti's bastard.

Yeah, that would be too obvious. I guess you're right, he's definitely a pope's bastard.

You lot are going to spoil all my fun, at this rate.

Touché.

Approved.

Ha! Ferran was also planning to work with the name once he returned to Venice.

[Agamemnon]

I did it! I joined the thing!
