Adored and revered by her family, feared and loathed by her enemies, Fiorenza Francesca Giovanni is the Matriarch of Clan Giovanni in Houston. Nothing happens within the Clan here without her knowing about it or commanding it to come to pass. Only her famiglia know how old she really is, but it's fairly common knowledge she received the Proxy Kiss at some point in her life after she had her many children, and therefore served as a ghoul for a time before her Embrace. She does however occasionally reference Venezia before it was absorbed into the Kingdom of Italy proper, as if she were there for it.

She and her famiglia arrived in Houston from Boston shortly after the former Kindred of Houston pulled a 'Roanoke Island', reclaiming the Domain of Little Italy as their own. Allied to Prince Ha-Soon, she and her family can occasionally be seen hobnobbing at Elysium.

She has a reputation for being unshakeable; very difficult to anger. Always composed, polite, and charming. The common jibs hurled at her regarding the stereotypes surrounding her Clan are more likely to be met with pity rather than ire. She simply hasn't the time to suffer fools. But hurt her family directly -- and you just might find yourself on the wrong side of the Shroud.

  • Necromancy ~ She's mastered it. Got a problem with ghosts? Need to contact a dead relation? Want an enemy spied on? Who ya gonna call?

  • Little Italy ~ Her little fiefdom. Come visit for some true Italian hospitality.

  • The Family ~ Ties to the Mob or Organized Crime? You'd know her. While her son Giancarlo handles most of the Family 'Business', Mama often advises.

  • Il Collettivo ~ Fiorenza surrounds herself with -- and in some cases outright adopts -- gifted individuals who have an interest in death studies, The Restless, or the Shadowlands. Mediums can always find a home with her, and she enjoys robust conversation with other creatures that have an affinity with la Arti della Morte.

Giancarlo ~ My pride and joy. King of our empire, with the death of your father.

Renata ~ My baby daughter has returned to me. You shall never fly away again.

Charlie ~ As much my child as any of my natural children.

Alessio ~ A curiosity. I will unravel the puzzle of you, cousin.

Antonia ~ My little nightingale.

Carlotta ~ Fierce and strong, my lioness. So pleased you're here with us.

Franky ~ I love you like my own, nephew. But remember, your sister sent you to me for more reasons than one.
