Character Outline[]
Appearance[]
As head of the combat forces of the Carcassa Famiglia, he wears a full leather outfit and a white motorcycle helmet; a similar uniform is worn by his subordinates. The helmet is equipped with a green visor and decorated with a picture of his animal partner, a giant armored octopus named Tako whose tentacles follow his hand and finger movements. In both his Arcobaleno and adult forms, he wears eyeliner and has a teardrop-shaped tattoo under his left eye. He also wears lipstick, and has bandages on his face, probably because of all the trouble he gets into. By his own admission, his adult form is a "pretty-boy hottie" and "seven heads tall".
Personality[]
Skull is brash and mouthy, and he likes to show off. But he is rather distant to some people. However, he becomes cowardly when confronting someone he fears, often opting to hide or run away from that person. As a result, both Reborn and Colonnello look down on him. Reborn often refers to Skull as his "errand boy" or "lackey," and although Skull complains, he ultimately gives in to these accusations because he is too afraid to challenge Reborn. Skull works as a tactician, but his plans often fail due to the brute force of his opponents. He can also act shamelessly, this is demonstrated once in the manga when he says that he also wants to be hugged by Adelheid. On the other hand, he cares for the people he feels responsible for, He panics at the thought of harm coming to Emma and shows fear and concern when the Simon family is attacked by Vindice. Moreover, he has shown that when the situation becomes serious, he can set aside his insecurities and put himself in danger to support his allies. This loyalty is evident when he saves Emma from Varia's combined attack, proving his dedication to those he has formed bonds with. He is rather kind to Tako and is clingy to it.
