Livio the Double Fang

Livio the Double Fang (リヴィオ・ザ・ダブルファング) is a childhood friend of Nicholas D. Wolfwood, a disciple of Chapel and a member of the Gung-Ho-Guns from the Eye of Michael. Livio has what is assumed is Dissociative Identity Disorder and has an alter known as Razlo the Tri-Punisher of Death, who is treated as a separate member of the Gung-Ho Guns.

Initial Appearance
Livio initially appears as a man with tan skin and shaggy white hair, a skull-mask covering the left side of his face, and all-black leather clothing. When he switches with Razlo the mask comes off, revealing the left half of his head: it is shaved bald, with a sunburst-like tattoo surrounding his left eye; his artificial third arm is revealed as well.

Redeemed Appearance
After joining Vash, Livio lets his hair grow in to cover up the bald half of his head. After his first encounter with Elendira the Crimsonnail in Octovern, he receives a black poncho and wide-brimmed hat in a chance meeting with a grown-up Jasmine, who does not recognize him. In the last chapter of Trigun Maximum, Livio has long hair a bit similar to his initial haircut except it was less thick.

Personality
In his debut, not much of Livio's personality was shown due to him setting his emotions aside to be as functional as possible to the Eye of Michael.

After Wolfwood's death, when the organization was no more, Livio is shown to be rather kind. He says after his first fight against Elendira the Crimsonnail that he never thought of children as cute and worth protecting before. Livio lets out more emotion as the series progresses, letting himself openly cry again.

Abilities
As a member of Eye of Michael, Livio has increased muscle strength, enhanced senses and stronger bones, allowing him to perform feats of great strength and agility, such as casually lifting a weight of over 150 kilograms, as well as catching a rocket out of the air and throwing it back. Most importantly, the organization modified Livio's body to allow him to heal at an accelerated rate. Livio's healing factor is more potent than Wolfwood or Chapel, allowing the Double Fang to recover from most wounds quickly without ingesting a formula. If needed, Livio is able to use a dose of the formula to recover from attacks that would normally be impossible for him to recover from. The order's extreme training also enables him to analyze his enemies' abilities, movements, and habits. As a result, every failed attempt to kill him increases the likelihood of Livio being able to defeat his opposition. For example, while he was initially overwhelmed by Elendira, during their second clash Livio was able to react to her attacks more efficiently and eventually able to injure her.

Double Fangs
Livio wields the twin Double Fangs, two cross-shaped sub-machine guns with dual barrels that make them capable of firing forward and backward at once; these guns are typically strapped to his wrists and, later, carried in low-slung shoulder holsters when not in use.

Biography
Livio met Wolfwood when they were growing up at the orphanage. Wolfwood came to Livio and asked him why he was so shy, but Livio did not say it. With Wolfwood insisting more and more, the two finally became friends, but became best friends after an accident at the orphanage. A little girl named Jasmine followed a dog to a roof but she got scared and she couldn't get out, Wolfwood tried to save her but she failed when she fell off the roof and fell to the ground. Livio intervened and captured her, after which he and Wolfwood became very good friends. Later that same night, the dog was killed. Wolfwood, who was helping another child to go to the bathroom, saw Livio that evening with a very frightening expression on his face. When Livio woke up the next day, his hands were covered in blood. Although others accused him of killing that dog, the keeper of the orphanage found him innocent. Later that day Livio disappeared.

Months later, he found himself wandering in an unnamed city. Due to his exhaustion she stumbled and, rummaging in her pocket, found a piece of paper with the name "Razlo" written on it. He didn't know where he came from or who, but he was too tired to pay much attention to it. Later some unsavory locals try to drive him out of town. After being beaten by them, he found another note, which read: "Kill those bastards, I can't wait. Razlo." The letters kept coming and he slowly began to yield more and more. A few weeks later he saw the men who had beaten him. They immediately started beating him again, but then a few minutes later they hear a voice, Razlo's voice. Razlo took control of Livio and killed the men in seconds, then told Livio that this was a way to punish him for forgetting his existence. Razlo then took Livio to the organization known as the Eye of Michael, where they would both be trained to become assassins.

Livio quickly rose in rank and soon became regarded as one of the best assassins the Eye of Michael organization had ever created. He, Chapel the Evergreen and his old friend Nicholas D. Wolfwood (who also joined the Eye of Michael) are considered three of the best. Although he looks like an adult, his age has been increased due to Eye of Michael's experiments on him to maximize his genetic potential. It seems that at some point in the past Wolfwood was afraid of Livio and tried to kill him. However, Wolfwood failed and later he and Livio quickly became bitter enemies. During his training with Chapel, Razlo killed nine of the Eye of Michael's best men, and as punishment he was to be killed, but Chapel intervened and shot himself for Razlo's crimes, begging the organization's advice to let him live, because he was of great value. This event led both Livio and Razlo to greatly venerate the Chapel and they became his most devoted followers.
