Bio

Filippo (b. 1604) is a member of an influential Savoyard family. As a young man he developed a reputation as a rake and a libertine, fighting a duel with the conte di Parella while still just a teenager. For this reason he was sent to the court of the Cardinal Maurizio de Savoia. Exposed to the many artists and musicians patronized by the cardinal, Filippo is said to be refining his tastes and moderating his behavior.

Filippo is handsome and charming by all accounts.
