Massimo is the younger brother of Part 4’s Tonio Trussardi. Born to a wealthy family, his brother was to inherit the family fortune, but left the family and it’s name behind as he pursued his dream of becoming a chef. This left pressure on Massimo, who had lived most of his life in a sort of apathetic stupor. He came to resent many people even if he didn’t truly know them. He is very caring towards Angelica, as an older brother to his little sister. He is shown to use Manic Depression to alleviate the pain caused by her illness and attempting to (fake a) smile for her sake. Though she can tell it’s fake. He also shows a certain amount of care towards Vittorio, and has respect for Vladimir.

Massimo is a man of Sicilian origin, and would likely have a somewhat thick Italian accent but I’m not picky. He should have a deep voice. When speaking to Vittorio or Angelica he should take on a slightly caring tone, with anyone else he should speak in a monotone, or somewhat angry tone of voice.
