About the Job
Don Zavetta’s premier hitman a silent, efficient instrument of death who moves like a shadow and plans like a surgeon. In his early forties, Enrico is tall, lean, and unnervingly still: the kind of man who seems to be listening to a clock only he can hear. He’s the model of disciplined menace calm, controlled, and terrifyingly competent. A former special-operations operative (or something very close to it), Enrico traded a life of covert missions for one of paid assassinations. He brought with him an exacting skillset: close quarters combat, marksmanship at any range, surveillance tradecraft, and a talent for making disappearances look like accidents. Where others make a show of brutality, Enrico prefers precision. Every operation is planned, every variable accounted for. Enrico doesn’t wear emotion on his sleeve. He speaks rarely, moves deliberately, and lets his efficiency speak for him. His loyalty is professional and absolute not born of warmth but of contract and code. He protects Zavetta’s interests with single minded focus because that is what he was trained to do: eliminate the threat and leave no trace. Beneath the composed exterior is a man who keeps a ledger in his head actions measured, debts recorded. He isn’t bloodthirsty; he is methodological. That makes him more dangerous than a hotheaded enforcer: he doesn’t lose control, because control is how he survives. Weaknesses are few and quiet: a deep, private compartment of memory from his past missions that haunts him in flashes, and an adherence to professionalism that can sometimes make him underestimate the unpredictable human element. Still, in the game Zavetta plays, Enrico Marcello is the final line the blade the cartel shows when negotiation fails.
