Enrico Maxwell

The leader of the Vatican's Special Section XIII

Maxwell is the leader of the Vatican's Iscariot Organization, controlling his subordinates with an iron fist. However, his seemingly blind devotion to his mission often makes his underling, Alexander Anderson, question his motivations. For example, during the standoff between Alucard and the Millennium-led police forces in Rio de Janeiro, Anderson watched the scene unfold on the news with a mixture of revulsion and fury, while Maxwell seemed to revel in the ensuing violence. Despite first presenting himself to be a suave, gentle bishop, Maxwell has demonstrated on multiple occasions that he is very calculated, cruel and fanatical in his mission to purge all heretical and demonic orders, such as his attack on London where he murdered innocent Protestants along with the Nazi vampires, which he seemed to greatly enjoy. His lust for power might have come from his ambition to prove himself due to being unloved and orphaned as a child, which causes him to further in any measure whatsoever to become great.

Maxwell is a tall and slender Italian man who wears white and purple garb, as well as white gloves. He keeps his long, blonde hair in a ponytail and has eyes that appear light-blue in color. His hair and eyes suggest a pigmentation issue such as albinism or leucism, however, his skin isn't all that pale, but instead, is tanned. Maxwell seems to suffer from myokymia when he is excited, characterized by the repeated twitching of his left eye. He dresses fully in purple, however; had a white shirt before being promoted to archbishop; in which, he switched to a fully long-sleeved purple priest shirt, and also wears a purple and white archbishop sash.

As a small child, Enrico lived at Ferdinand Luke's, an orphanage outside Rome where Alexander Anderson lived and worked. His parents had abandoned him, likely because he was the 'son of a mistress'. Though Anderson tried to raise him as well as he could, Enrico remained angry and spiteful. He grew determined to become a great man, someone that people couldn't look down on. Later in life, Maxwell rose through the ranks of the Catholic Church, and eventually became the leader of Iscariot. In this capacity, he oversaw the missions of Anderson and his team of paladins, including Maxwell's fellow orphans Heinkel Wulf and Yumiko Takagi.
