Matteo

Matteo a ghoul in the service of Alfonzo of Venice during the Dark Ages.

Biography
Matteo was the closest assistant of Bishop Alfonzo in Constantinople. He had been with Alfonzo since he was a boy, but hailed from a small city in the mountains instead of Constantinople itself. The Lasombra Bishop turned him into a ghoul because he was proud with the boy's performance; he had the mind for intrigue and showed more courage than Alfonzo would have given him credit for. At the end of Dark Ages Clan Novel: Lasombra, it is implied that Matteo was turned into a vampire by Lucita, but remained at Alfonzo's side as his "collateral".
