Gino Manitelli was an 11th generation Ventrue resident of Washington, D.C.. He is a good-looking man who typically wears suits that are slightly out-of-date. Though he prefers pinstripes, he wears them only infrequently so as not to attract the notice of less tasteful modem Americans. He has black hair, but is never without a hat. Although he is about 6'2", he looks much shorter, because Guido, who's perpetually beside him, stands at 6'7", and the monstrous ghoul is nearly as broad as he is high.
