Bio: (Before Death) Name: Durante Gustovi ("Gusto") Occupation: Employed by Kato Role: Kato's butler; bodyguard Age: 44 yrs. Height: 187.96 cm (6'2'') Weight: 108.86 kg (240 lbs.) Hair: Rust-colored (short, cropped) Eyes: Gray (silver in light) Ethnicity: Italian Appearance: Intimidating; heavy build; towered over everyone easily; erect posture; moved with considerable precision; usually smartly clad in suits and vests. [Kato often (fondly) likened him to an ape for his ability to move with mincing swiftness despite his bulk.]
Likes: Classical, opera, and exotic music, pizza, just about every type of meat (especially sausage), tea and coffee, cooking anything and everything, strength and agility training, secretly adores plays and many forms of dance (only Kato knows this), dogs (sturdy breeds), enjoyed playing multiple instruments (favored the piano, cello and sitar)
Dislikes: Dust bunnies, birds (especially parrots and seagulls), ants, when Kato disappears silently for long periods of time, when Chou pours chocolate syrup over her meat *twitch*, when Hikaru's planes find their way into the fragile items gallery *violent twitch*, the sound of glass breaking
Personality Traits: Diligent, focused, loyal, solemn (with a quirky side that surfaces only occasionally), discreet, great at keeping secrets, immensely protective of the Kurasaki family and those familiar, adapts with ease to nearly any situation, does not seem to be affected by changes in weather and temperature, "master of all trades"
Ability: Manipulation of vibrations and sound waves (can be used to pull heavy illusions over an enemy using their innermost fears, doubts, and turmoil or produce disorientation up to and including vomiting and destruction of bodily tissues); Hidden ability: super strength (only used in dire situations as it is very damaging to his puppet body and usually requires repair from Kato following its use) Derivation of Power: Self (constructed with a special instrument sealed within his body by Kato) Limitation: The only puppet with no obvious limitation. Would have to be entirely dismantled or countered with more powerful vibrations/sound waves. Exceedingly difficult to impede.
