Gianluca is one of the starting 11 members of the Marksmen. Because of his speed, coolness and decent ability with the ball he was initially hired as a catcher. But it did not take take long for Gianluca to find his true calling: running fast at lone opponents and stomp them into the ground. A quick learner, after a mere 10 games he changed from a somewhat shy and tentative player into an aggressive hard-hitting blocker that has no qualms about accidentally "tripping" over opponents that he just smashed down, and coming down on them elbows / knees / skull first.
Coach feels somewhat uncomfortable about this "unelfish" behaviour, but at the same time admits that it helps win games and keep teammates upright. So not too much is said about this.
How such lust for violence came to occur in an elf is a bit of a mistery, but rumours persist amongst his teammates that Gianluca may have some human blood in his ancestry, possibly even some Ogrish blood further down that human line. No-one dares discuss this around Gianluca, so it is expected to remain a mistery, at least until those paparazzi from NAF News Network notice him and decide to start digging into his roots.
