About the Job
Don Zavetta’s second bodyguard younger, sharper, and far more unpredictable than his counterpart, Marcus Venn. In his late twenties, Rico is a former street enforcer turned professional muscle, brought into Zavetta’s inner circle for his speed, nerve, and ruthlessness. Where Marcus is stoic and disciplined, Rico is fiery and impulsive a man who enjoys the adrenaline that comes with danger. He grew up in the rough parts of the city, learned to fight before he could drive, and sees working for Zavetta not just as a job, but as a badge of status. To Rico, loyalty isn’t about duty; it’s about belonging to power. He’s trained well, deadly with a firearm, and quick on his feet, but his temper sometimes gets in the way. He talks too much, jokes too often, and has a bad habit of underestimating people a mistake Marcus quietly disapproves of but never corrects out loud. Still, Rico respects Marcus like an older brother, even if he’d never admit it. Rico’s loyalty to Don Zavetta runs deep, but it’s fueled by fear as much as respect. He knows what happens to those who fail Zavetta he’s seen it firsthand. Behind his swagger and bravado, there’s a constant hum of anxiety that keeps him sharp and restless. In the field, Rico moves fast, strikes hard, and never looks back. He’s the kind of man who would take a bullet for Zavetta partly out of loyalty, partly because he knows the alternative would be worse.
