Silvio Gambinuchi is a major character in Queen City Underground and Tales from Queen City: The Ballad of Sean Killian.

Background[]

Silvio Gambinuchi was born on July 13, 1971 in Queen City to his father, Ricardo Gambinuchi and his wife. In 1973 his brother Vinnie Gambinuchi was born and his mother died shortly afterward. In the 1980's his father remarried to another woman named Epalanza who verbally abused the boys and her husband which quickly caused Ricardo to divorce her. By 1987, Silvio and his brother were well aware of his father's involvement in the mafia and wanted to be mobsters themselves and the brothers would establish a small mafia family at their high school in the late 80's. By the 1990's, Silvio and his brother had joined up with their father's organisation, working their way up to capos.

Events of Queen City Underground[]

In 2001, Silvio is introduced to protagonist, Aiden McCreary by Mario Montinelli and Jimmy Pegorini. Silvio accompanies Aiden through many of the missions, disrupting the Alfred Family's operations throughout the city. Later in the game during the mission "Peace Offering" Silvio goes with Aiden and Vinnie to broker a peace with the Alfreds by paying a man named Franz Volner. When Volner tries to have the three killed, Silvio helps him in the shootout and is eventually the one to finally kill Franz. After a few solo missions, Silvio rejoins Aiden and Vinnie in the game's finale and helps in the final shootout with Adal Alfred.

By 2007, Silvio has been promoted to underboss of the family and regularly hangs out at his club, "Sil's" with his crew including, Vinnie, Matthew Gisamone , and several other Gambinuchi soldiers.
