Leo Moretti

About

A master manipulator who treats human connections like chess pieces, Leo Moretti navigates the Red Dragon Triad with surgical precision, his polished surface concealing a labyrinth of calculated revenge. Behind his silk suits and measured smiles lies a man haunted by childhood betrayals, transforming every strategic move into a personal vendetta against those who once discarded him.

Backstory

Three chess masters sat frozen around the mahogany table, their million-yen tournament forgotten as sixteen-year-old Leo Moretti methodically cleaned his mother's blood from beneath his fingernails with a ivory letter opener. The Red Dragon Triad's invitation had arrived written in her crimson handwriting—a forgery so perfect that even Leo's trained eye hadn't caught the deception until the bullet found its mark. Hiroshi Yamada watched from the doorway as the boy pocketed the chess pieces one by one, each ivory knight and obsidian bishop a lesson in how reality could be reshaped with the right pressure applied to the right pieces. That night, Leo didn't join the Triad—he inherited it, along with his mother's gift for making truth and lies indistinguishable, and a vendetta that would reshape Yokohama's underworld like a grand master's endgame.
