Personality: He’s extremely devout in his beliefs, bordering on crazy about it. He pretty much possesses a “My way or the highway” approach to religion too, and will basically do anything he possibly can to protect the Church and make more people feel like he does. Other than that? He’s... A manipulative cunt. He uses people to get ahead and happily killed a good number of people in order to unite the church against a threat that he made up. But he seems pleasant enough and feels completely justified in doing this until the very, bitter end. Other: I’m going more book-canon than movie-canon, so obviously there are differences like the Illuminati Diamond which never was mentioned in the movie, and Kohler, and Carlo being the Pope’s son. And also his name being Carlo rather than Patrick which I somehow forgot to mention the first time through this app. Lol whoops?

First Person: What a strange place I’ve stumbled upon. You all are a very interesting sort. Perhaps God directed me here to help you. Though many of you may be sinners and blasphemers, I can help you. God can help you. You are the horror, and I will be your hope.
How many of you believe in God? Well, I suppose that doesn’t matter right now. What matters is how many of you want to. How many of you want to have faith in something bigger and more awesome than you? How many of you desire to have something else in your lives? Something not as hedonistic? Not as painful? I can save you.
Third Person: How dare he. How dare he! The man who was Pope - no! The man who had raised him, cared for him was... Was...
Was a common sinner. He and some... Whore had... Carlo’s body shook as he thought about it. He wanted to vomit, or punch something or... No, he couldn’t do that. He wouldn’t... But... The thought seemed so clear and it was an obvious solution to the man’s sin... And as the Camerlengo, it would be easy for him to accomplish without anyone ever finding out... No, he mustn’t. But maybe... Maybe this was God’s will. Maybe that was why he had even thought such a thing in the first place. Yes... God had given him a plan and God would give him the strength. He owed that man his life, but his sin must be punished.
And who better to punish him than someone who knew his darkest secret?
4/4 Nope, I didn't change a fucking thing.
