Main Characters
Avilio Bruno (Angelo Lagusa)
Voiced by: Takashi Kondo (adult), Ayaka Asai (child) (Japanese), Austin Tindle (adult), Morgan Berry (child) (English)
The protagonist of 91 Days, real name Angelo Lagusa. Seven years ago, on his birthday in April 1921, his father, mother, and little brother were murdered by Vincent Vanetti and three others, including Nero Vanetti. Now grown into a young man, Avilio sets about getting close to Nero so that he can exact his revenge.
- Anti-Hero: Avenging the murder of his family is understandable, but the ruthless lengths Avilio goes to succeed are... almost villainous.
- Becoming the Mask:
- The more dirty work that Avilio does for Nero in order to earn his trust, the more blurred the distinction between his cover and his real identity becomes. Corteo reproaches him for his willingness to kill a cop and his family to shut up an investigation, which shows that he's become as heartless as the criminals he's supposedly seeking revenge against.
- In the end, Avilio confesses that he didn't kill Nero simply because he didn't want to kill him, implying that all that time spent pretending to be his friend affected him more than he had intended.
- Broken Bird: A troubled protagonist whose cynicism and detatchment stem from his Dark and Troubled Past.
- Chekhov's Skill: Shows off some expert picpocketing skills on Nero to entertain a group of children in episode 4. In episode 7, he uses those same skills to discreetly remove the bullets from Frate's revolver before goading him to try to shoot Nero, causing his death.
- The Chess Master: Able to think up and execute complex plans that have everyone dancing to his tune.
- Childhood Friends: Has been friends with Corteo since they were young boys.
- The Comically Serious: Whenever he's the source of a gag, expect him to keep his default expression on his face.
- Consummate Liar: Despite his lack of social graces, Avilio can come up with convincing lies and never gives himself away when he's decieving someone. He's literally gotten away with murder thanks to this skill.
- Dark and Troubled Past: Witnessed the deaths of his parents and younger brother and is the only survivor from the attack.
- Death Glare: If looks could kill, Avilio would have wiped out the Vanettis already.
- Desperately Looking for a Purpose in Life: When Corteo asks him why he would throw away his life to get revenge, Avilio tells him he's got it the wrong way around: he's afraid that without revenge motivating him, he'll have nothing worth living for. In the end, he tells Nero he had hoped he would find his reason to live after achieving his revenge, but instead he is just as empty as before.
- Empty Shell: Metaphorically dead on the inside, he describes himself as having nothing to live for except revenge. Nero actually describes him to Barbero as an "empty shell", and says that he will give Avilio a reason to live, little suspecting the hatred that Avilio holds for him in his heart.
- Establishing Character Moment: In the opening scene, Avilio returns to his appartment, a gloomy figure in the rain. A woman addresses him as "Mr. Bruno" but says a letter for Angelo Lagusa was sent to his address, which tells us that he's living under an assumed name. He snatches the letter from her without a word of thanks, demonstrating that he's quite antisocial. His apartment is shabby with used food cans lying around and has hardly a stick of furniture in it, which reflects how he's just keeping himself alive rather than really living. When he opens the letter, he finds a photograph of his murdered little brother Luce, utters the name "Vanetti", and slowly breaks into a Slasher Smile as lightning illuminates his face. Right off the bat, we have strong signs that our protagonist is a man who had everything he loved taken away from him a long time ago, and now he has no purpose in life other than Revenge.
- Exhausted Eye Bags: In episode 11, he looks terrible from lack of sleep, caused by his guilt about killing Corteo.
- False Friend: Works his way into Nero's confidence and makes him think that he's a loyal friend, but behind this act he is plotting to destroy him.
- Heel Realization: See Was It Really Worth It?
- The Hero Dies: Nero takes him to the beach and shoots him as he walks away. Thus, our tortured protagonist dies. Or does he?
- Hidden Eyes: Depicted with eyes hidden in shadows to reflect his angst about Corteo being held hostage.
- Hypocrite: Even though avenging his murdered family is supposed to be his raison d'être, he would carry out the murder of a policeman's wife and four-year-old daughter if it meant keeping Nero's trust, making him no better than the people who murdered his loved ones.
- Kill the Ones You Love: Forced to kill Corteo, who was like a brother to him and probably the last living person he really cared about.
- Lack of Empathy: Has little sympathy for anyone's suffering other than his own, and frequently kills people without a twinge of regret. Granted, some of them are total scumbags who have it coming, but he has a tendency to completely dehumanize his victims regardless of whether they're a Punch-Clock Villain or a Card-Carrying Villain.
- Loners Are Freaks: In episode 1, his neighbors consider him creepy because he has no friends and doesn't talk to anyone.
- Manipulative Bastard: Expertly and cruelly manipulates just about everyone to serve his plan, especially in episode 7, where he causes his enemies to eliminate each other.
- Meaningful Rename: Justified. He changed his name from Angelo Lagusa to Avilio Bruno as to protect his identity from the people who killed his parents.
- Nerves of Steel: Doesn't matter if he's dealing with a Smug Snake or Ax-Crazy mobster, Avilio will stand his ground.
- Nominal Hero: While he has the sympathetic backstory of wanting to get back at the criminals who murdered his family, and some of his enemies are really bad people, neither his motivation nor methods come off looking much better than the antagonists. There is no line he wouldn't cross in order to achieve his revenge, and his lack of basic scruples leads him to lie to, manipulate, betray, and murder anyone who stands in his way.
- Not So Stoic:
- When the Vanettis have Corteo captive and are planning to kill him for conspiring with Fango, he kicks in a table out of frustration when he's alone.
- In episode 10, he has to fight back tears when he shoots Corteo.
- In episode 12, he raises his voice and weeps bitterly when he tells Nero that he should have just killed him that night seven years ago.
- Papa Wolf: Inverted. He's the eldest son of his family and his main goal to avenge the deaths of his parents and younger brother.
- Pay Evil unto Evil: Avilio believes that his family's murderers and anyone associated with them are pure scum, and there's nothing too cruel or underhanded for him to use against them.
- Perpetual Frowner: Frowning is his default expression, so it's a rare and significant thing for him to smile.
- Pet the Dog: His care for Corteo is his main redeeming feature, although they have their ups and downs. In episode ten, he bargains for Ganzo to spare Corteo, helps him escape from Lawless, and takes several days in Chicago for them to rekindle their friendship.
- Shoot the Dog: In episode ten, Nero tells him to prove his loyalty by killing Corteo himself. It's the only way to survive and ultimately get revenge, but Avilio is in anguish when he pulls the trigger.
- Slasher Smile: Presents a terrifying example of this trope when he receives the letter that kickstarts his revenge plot, accentuated by a Lightning Reveal.
- Sole Survivor: The only surviving member of the Lagusa family.
- The Stoic: Holds his emotions close to the vest, presenting a poker face to the world while concealing the hatred for the Vanettis that keeps him going.
- Strong Family Resemblance: Shares his late father's dark black hair and serious face.
- Sweet Tooth: Avilio's got a thing for sugar in contrast to most of the other cast. He puts a lot of sugar in his coffee, drowns his pancakes in syrup, and when on the road with Nero bought mostly canned pineapple for the trip.
- Took a Level in Badass: As a child, Avilio was first seen running away and barely escaping from the men who killed his family. Now? The guy has gotten Nerves of Steel, became a master manipulator, and is even a decent fighter.
- Took a Level in Jerkass: Before the night of the murder, he Used to Be a Sweet Kid, but he had a lot of time to get mean between then and now.
- Toxic Friend Influence: Pressures Corteo into getting mixed up in the mafia with him, and tries to turn Nero against Frate.
- Tragic Keepsake: Keeps a picture of his younger brother Luce when he receives the letter from the mystery accomplice.
- The Unfettered: Guided by his all-consuming goal of revenge on the Vanettis rather than any consistent moral principles, Avilio is willing to do bad things to get what he wants and doesn't let emotions like pity get in his way.
- Ungrateful Bastard: In episode eight, he tells Corteo to get out of his life, turning his back on their childhood friendship. This, to the friend who sheltered him on the night of the murder, provided them with the Lawless Heaven that enabled Avilio to get close to Nero, and whose life he tangled up in crime by convincing him to sell his concoction to the Mafia. The wad of money to pay for college just seems like an insult, as if money can settle all the debts he owes him.
- Used to Be a Sweet Kid: Appeared to be a happy and optimistic child before the murder of his family. Now he feels hollow inside, with nothing to live for except vengeance.
- Vengeance Feels Empty: After he succeeds in destroying the Vanetti family with everyone who participated in killing his family or stood in his way, and Nero asks him if he's satisfied, he bitterly remarks that he took revenge hoping that it would help him find a reason to live. Instead he feels just as empty as he did before, and speaks the same words as Vincent: "It was all for nothing".
- Villain Protagonist: Downplayed. Avilio's goal is understandable and the people he's facing against aren't heroes in the slightest, but he's not above putting another person through the same pain he went through (i.e., threatening to harm Delphy's family).
- Was It Really Worth It?: In episode 11, he asks himself what he's been killing for all this time and whether it was worth losing Corteo.
- Weapon Specialization: Avilio uses an M1911 pistol as his trusted sidearm and instrument of revenge. It features prominently in the opening and closing credits sequences, as well as in the stylized logo of the series that shows him concealing it behind his back.
- Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds: Downplayed. His family were murdered and he's out to get vengeance for them. But, he's not above being either a hypocrite or acting like an Ungrateful Bastard either.
- Worth Living For: He hoped to find a reason to keep on living after avenging his family. But there was nothing left in the end.
- You Killed My Father: Seeks revenge for the murder of his father, mother, and little brother. By the end he kills every one of their killers, except Nero.
Nero Vanetti
Voiced by: Ruriko Aoki (child), Takuya Eguchi (adult) (Japanese), Luci Christian (child), Ian Moore (adult) (English)
The eldest son of Don Vincent Vanetti, who at the young age of 21 is already on track to succeed his father. His personality is fun-loving, hot-headed, and rash, but he has the qualities of a natural leader and a deep sense of responsibility for carrying on his father's legacy. Seven years ago, when he was only fourteen, he was one of three men who accompanied Vincent to kill the Lagusa family. When Angelo Lagusa comes back to Lawless in the guise of Avilio Bruno, Nero quickly embraces him as a friend and confidant, little suspecting that his new right-hand man is plotting to kill him and destroy his family.
- Actually, I Am Him: When introduced with Vanno on the island, he's in disguise and neither Avilio nor Fango recognize him. After they escape from Fango, Avilio asks if Nero was actually there, upon which Nero removes his fake beard and reveals himself as Nero.
- Anti-Villain: On one hand, he was one of the four men who made the hit on the Lagusas, and no matter how you slice it he's killed a fair number of people since then, but on the other hand, he was only 14 when he participated in the murder, and it turns out he actually couldn't bring himself to shoot anyone that night. He commits violence mainly to protect the lives and honor his friends and family, and has a strong sense of duty to his father which is in itself quite admirable. He's been a solid friend to Avilio since they began working together, and much of the time he comes across as more likeable and sympathetic than our Nominal Hero protagonist!
- Benevolent Boss: Takes good care of his subordinates by listening to what they have to say, trusting them with responsibility, and making sure they are rewarded for loyal service.
- Dark and Troubled Past: Has lived a life of crime as a mafioso, starting at a young age when his father took him along to take out the Lagusa family at the tender age of 14.
- Deuteragonist: The second-most important character in the show, as both a companion and mortal enemy of the protagonist Avilio.
- The Don: In training to take over his father's role as head of the Vanetti Mafia family. In episode nine, his father officially gives up his seat to Nero, making him the new head of the family, which now includes the former Fango family.
- Et Tu, Brute?: When he finds out that Avilio was a False Friend all along, and that he killed so many people who were dear to him, Nero feels deeply betrayed."I trusted you!"
- Exhausted Eye Bags: Starts getting dark circles under his eyes in episode eight, from the headache that Delphy is giving him.
- Foil: Compared to Avilio, who is sullen, dispassionate, and ruthlessly pragmatic, Nero is boisterous, Hot-Blooded, and tends to put Honor Before Reason. He also comes from a screwed up family that has nonetheless been there throughout his life, while Avilio had an idyllic family but lost them at a young age.
- Friend to All Children: Zigzagged. He goes out of his way to entertain a group of children in episode 4, and the kids adore him. He was an accomplice in the murder of Luce Lagusa and fired a shot at Angelo as he fled, but he didn't actually shoot anybody, in the latter case intentionally missing. In episode eight, however, he orders his men to threaten Delphy's wife and four year old daughter to make him withdraw his investigation into the family's activities. You might say that he genuinely likes kids and doesn't enjoy hurting them, but sometimes he feels like he's left with no other choice.
- Handsome Lech: Makes it obvious that he's not shy around women and flirts with any one he comes across; the ladies don't seem to mind his roguish good looks and charm, either.
- Hidden Depths: Has shown the range of his talents outside of the mafia, such as being a good juggler.
- I Did What I Had to Do: Nero's done some dirty work that he isn't proud of, and suffered from having to kill Frate, but to him it's ultimately justified if it serves the good of the family.
- It Gets Easier: Tells Avilio that he felt terrible about his involvement in killing the Lagusas as his first job, and the truth is that he couldn't bring himself to shoot that night, but after that he threw himself into mob work, including killing, without looking back.
- Jerk with a Heart of Gold: He can be reckless and hot-tempered when confronted, but he shows a deep loyalty to his friends and family. He's even demonstrated to be polite and friendly towards women and children.
- Kill the Ones You Love: Tries to persuade Frate not to draw his gun, and kills him only in self-defense. Afterwards, he is obviously heartbroken.
- My Greatest Failure: When speaking to Avilio about his first job in episode four, he shows regret about his involvement in the murder of the Lagusa family. In episode nine, he reveals that he actually couldn't bring himself to shoot anybody that night, and because he felt like he'd failed his father by being unable to carry out his orders, he did a lot of work and a fair amount of killing afterwards to prove his loyalty.
- Strong Family Resemblance: Don Galassia tells him that he looks just like his father did when he was a youth.
- Thicker Than Water: Decides to take Fio's advice by swallowing his pride and making up with Ronaldo, since he doesn't want to kill his own brother Frate. Avilio tries to convince him that this is dangerous sentimentality.
- "Well Done, Son" Guy: Wants to prove himself worthy of his father's trust, in which he has competition from Frate. In the end, he succeeds in making his father proud, only to lose him and see everything his father dreamed of beginning to fall apart and being destroyed.
- Would Hit a Girl: Not that he enjoys it, but if he must protect his family, Nero isn't afraid to harm a woman to get at his enemy.
- Would Hurt a Child: He doesn't like doing it, but if it's for the sake of the family, he will. Ordering his men to go after Delphy's wife and daughter to make him call off the investigation shows that he can sometimes be ruthless.
- You Killed My Father: After Avilio avenges himself upon Vincent, Nero takes it upon himself to kill Avilio, and shoots him on the seashore. Presumably.
- Younger Than They Look: He's only 21, but could pass off as older because of his robust build, rugged face, and mature-looking goatee. Even when he was only 14, he could have passed for a grown man while dressed up for the hit on the Lagusas.

- Strong Family Resemblance: Resembles his warm-hearted blonde-haired mother, unlike Angelo whose appearance takes after their dad.

The Don of the Vanetti family and father of Nero, Fio, and Frate. In April 1921, he usurped the seat of the previous Don by murder, justifying himself to Testa by saying it was to protect the family. He and his goons murdered the Lagusas except for Angelo, who now as Avilio Bruno considers Vincent as one of his top targets. Because of his failing health he hasn't gone out in public for three years, and as his time approaches, his two sons struggle for the right to succeed him as the family's head.

- Fate Worse than Death: Instead of killing him, Avilio ruins the empire Vincent spent most of his life building.

His sons got caught up in a feud forcing one to kill the other.

- The Alcoholic: Starts hitting the bottle pretty hard to deal with the stress brought on by the conflict with his brother and Fango cutting into the Vanetti family's profits.
- Cain and Abel: Clashes with his brother Nero for leadership of the family. Frate sees Nero as selfish and irresponsible, wanting to risk the family for the sake of his stubborn pride instead of accepting the patronage of the Galassias, while Nero views Frate as a spineless coward who's just Ronaldo's puppet and willing to let the Galassias walk all over them.
- Character Death: Shot dead by Nero in episode 7, when Avilio tricks him into drawing his unloaded gun.
- Churchgoing Villain: Frate prides himself on going to mass every Sunday, nevermind what his family does as a business every other day of the week, which Avilio on one occasion exploits for a driveby.
- Descent into Addiction: Originally a bit of a straight edge, Frate copes with his increasing stress by slipping into booze and the drugs that Ronaldo gives him.
- The Dutiful Son: Views himself as the responsible sibling who will make the sacrifices necessary to protect the Vanetti family, while viewing his older brother Nero as irresponsible and unworthy of becoming the Don. Nero doesn't see it that way.

- Green-Eyed Monster: Always envied his brother for being the one their dad acknowledged.
- Karmic Death: In the first half of the show, Frate tries to kill Nero, arguing that he is forced to sacrifice them for the sake of the future of their family. As a result, his older brother kills Frate himself with the technical assistance of their sister, in order to sacrifice them, really save the family.
- Nervous Wreck: Grows more burnt out and anxious as the feud worsens, to the point where he tells Ronaldo that he can't live this way anymore.

- Establishing Character Moment: Introduced to the audience on the island, where he's trying to sell imported liquor to Mr. Granchio.

- Hoist by His Own Petard: His whole plan to manipulate Avilio into helping him become the Vanetti family's next Don by killing off his rivals backfires horribly when Avilio shoots Don Galassia instead of Vincent, leading to Ganzo's death at the hands of Strega and the subsequential wipeout of the Vanettis.
- Killed Mid-Sentence: When he sees that Avilio killed Don Galassia instead of Vincent, and that now Strega is pointing a gun at him, Ganzo tries in panic to talk his way out. It doesn't work, as Strega had enough reasons to kill him without letting him to finish his sentence.

Voiced by: Hōchū Ōtsuka (Japanese), Michael Johnson (English)
Leader of the Galassia crime family and the uncle of Ronaldo and Strega.
- Affably Evil: He's a cheerful and a reasonable man, despite being a mob boss, as he shows genuine concern about Vincent's health.

Ronaldo Galassia
Voiced by: Yūichi Nakamura (Japanese), Dave Trosko (English)
A nephew of Don Galassia, Ronaldo has just married Nero's younger sister Fio and is trying to influence how the Vanettis do business. He's rather smug and acts as if he owns the place, while making a partner of Frate who, unlike Nero, was in favor of an alliance between the Vanettis and the Galassias.
- Asshole Victim: Considering that he manipulated Frate into wanting to kill Nero and wanted to kill him in front of his sister himself, it's hard to feel sorry for him.
- Babies Make Everything Better: Tells Fio that their unborn baby will symbolize the reconciliation between the Vanettis and Galassias.
- Character Death: His own wife, Fio, shoots him dead to prevent him from killing Nero.
- Disappeared Dad: Effectively becomes this since Fio (who is pregnant by the time) shoots him, in order to protect her older brother.

- Evil Redhead: Ronaldo is one of the few redheads in the series and also one of the most arrogant.
- Mama's Baby, Papa's Maybe: Given Vanno's feelings for Fio and a number of hints throughout history, he can be the real father of her child.
- Manipulative Bastard: Manipulates Frate's resentment towards Nero and dutifulness towards the Vanettis in order to dispose of him and tries to do the same with Fio by using her unborn child as leverage against Nero. Avilio perfectly sees through his manipulations and gives Fio a note, stating that Ronaldo will kill Nero, ultimately leading to Ronaldo's death.
- Smug Smiler: His natural expression is a smug and condescending grin.
- Toxic Friend Influence: Influences Frate to turn against his brother, and provides him with drugs that fuel his Descent into Addiction.

- Ambition Is Evil: His desire to expand the Galassia family makes him work together with Ganzo to make it come true.
- Nothing Personal: Cares about the necessity of progress for his family rather than holding a particular grudge against the Vanettis. Subverted, when he justifies his wipeout of the Vanettis and relentless pursuit for Nero as revenge for Ronaldo's death.
- Obviously Evil: One look at this guy with the hard-lined face, devilishly light blue eyes, and menacing smirk tells you that he's up to no good.
- The Starscream: He was working with Ganzo to take down Vincent, but when Avilio kills Don Galassia instead, he immediately retaliates by shooting Ganzo for suspected betrayal. He isn't too upset by the outcome, as it gives him a reason to wipe out the Vanettis for good.
- Tyrant Takes the Helm: Don Galassia is a pretty reasonable leader who is willing to make peace with the Vanettis, but as soon as he's dead, Strega claims the leadership of the Galassia family and takes it in the direction of wiping out their competition entirely.

- Last-Name Basis: He is referred to by his surname.
- Pet the Dog: When Angelo reveals his past backstory to him, Orco actually is sympathetic to him, and when Angelo gets justice by seemingly killing Nero, Orco congratulates him (keep in mind Orco's goon wanted to have Angelo murdered just as a precaution). Too bad this was all part of Angelo and Nero's scheme to get rid of Orco and secure an alliance with Fango.

- Villainous Glutton: A big appetite and no conscience to go with it.

- Bondage Is Bad: When Avilio and Nero try to assassinate him, he's found tied to the bed with Lacrima whipping his back with a riding crop.

- Karmic Death: Dies in his own office at the hands of Corteo, the man whom he exploited and was about to kill, in a brutal fashion similar to how he had just killed Scusa, with Corteo using the bottle of alcohol Fango stole from him, and the telephone Fango was about to use to betray him to the Vanettis.
- Kick the Dog: Initially seems distraught over his teammate, Serpente’s death. Then proceeds to laugh about it.
- Klingon Promotion: Murders and usurps Don Orco's crime family in episode six.

- Chew Toy: Since he's gotten involved with Fango's gang, he's been pushed into doing things that have left him unable to leave. He's been threatened to be killed, got caught in the middle of a gang war, and now he works for Fango as a servant without getting paid.
- Fair-Weather Friend: While he’s around Corteo enough for them to be considered friends, when he overhears how Fango wants to get rid of him for knowing too much, he attempts to convince Corteo to run away with him out of the city, but doesn’t try more than that to keep out of trouble.
- Only in It for the Money: The reason he started working for gang members like Fango was for the money, but after selling off Serpente's body to Scusa, who moonlights as a corpse dealer, from the Vanettis, he gets into trouble and regrets his actions.
- Punch-Clock Villain: Though he is a part of Fango's group, he doesn't like to deal with the more dangerous tasks that come from being involved. He works in the gang, but he doesn't enjoy it.

Scusa
Voiced by Kouji Ishii (Japanese), Chad Cline (English)
The head of Prohibition Enforcement Bureau's branch in Lawless, Scusa is a crooked man who deals with the Mafia.
- Bludgeoned to Death: The way he dies.
- Dirty Cop: He's supposed to be enforcing Prohibition, but instead he turns a blind eye to the Mafia and their illicit alcohol in exchange for a cut of the profits.
- Establishing Character Moment: We first see him ordering a drink in a speakeasy. Clearly, this is not an honest or upstanding public servant.
- Greed: Abuses his job and authority to make money for himself, and gets done in by it when he foolishly tries to milk Fango for the Lawless Heaven recipe.
- Hypocrite: He's the public face of Prohibition in Lawless, and yet, he drinks alcohol himself!
- Ironic Name: Scusa means "sorry" in Italian, but his actions speak otherwise.
- Karmic Death: Makes one crooked deal too many, and gets his head bashed in with a golf club by the dangerous mob boss, whom he was trying to rip off.
- Small Role, Big Impact: He may have small screen time compared to the rest of the cast, but his actions of buying Serpente's body from Cerotto and stealing the Lawless Heaven's recipe, led to Orcos declaring war on Vanettis and Corteo killing Fango.
- Smug Snake: Fancies himself a smooth operator, and always wears that smug grin, but he gets in too deep and pays the price.
- Too Dumb to Live: Makes the mistake of trying to sell the stolen Lawless Heaven liquor recipe to Fango for an overinflated price, while neglecting to protect himself against Fango simply killing him and pocketing the recipe for himself.
Delphy
Voiced by: Hiroki Tochi (Japanese), Mark Stoddard (English)
A crusading lawman from the Federal Bureau of Prohibition in Chicago, Delphy has come to Lawless with the aim of sweeping up corruption and taking down the Mafia. Needless to say, he has his work cut out for him.
- Achilles' Heel: He won't be bought with bribes, and he disregards threats to himself, but his love for his wife and daughter make him vulnerable.
- Being Good Sucks: As the only lawman willing to stand up to the mob, he sees his family almost get killed. This forces him to cancel his investigation and leave Lawless with his tail tucked between his legs.
- Determinator: "Tell Nero Vanetti that I will crush him, no matter what." He says this after refusing a large bribe and shrugging off a threat to his family. Subverted, when his wife and daughter almost get blown up, and he realizes that he can't live up to his boast towards the Vanettis.
- Dry Crusader: Unlike Scusa, Delphy takes the Prohibition of alcohol to heart and is determined to make Lawless as dry as he is.
- Establishing Character Moment: Introduces himself before the reporters as the man who's going to clean up Lawless: stubborn, straight-laced, and incorruptible.
- External Combustion: His wife and daughter narrowly avoid being killed by a car rigged to explode, and this near miss is enough to make him call off his investigation.
- Gag Nose: Fango and the Vanettis both refer to him as "That big-nose". It's appropriate for a 'nosy' guy who smells the stink of crime, and sticks his nose in other people's business. But Fango just assumes it means he has a big dick.
- Hero Antagonist: The only honest cop featured in the story so far, who is determined to improve the lives of ordinary citizens by busting the show's criminal protagonists. Unfortunately for him, it turns out he was just a bit player in a story that's really about conflict within the mob, and he doesn't even last one episode.
- Incorruptible Pure Pureness: He can't be tempted to betray the law by anything such as money, and even refuses to back down when they threaten his family. When his refusal nearly causes their deaths, however, he gives up.
- In-Series Nickname: See Gag Nose.
