Personality[]
Dino Velvet is a decadent, sadistic snuff film producer. He is also a misogynist, and enjoys beating, torturing and murdering women on camera.
Velvet usually uses manipulation in order to stay undetected by the authorities, but when his business is seriously threatened, Velvet is willing to do anything in order to keep his position as a feared mobster, including abducting and killing his vengeful victims or competitors. Velvet lacks any moral code, and instead of directly facing his foes, he prefers to set traps for them thanks to his goons and cunning intelligence.
Biography[]
His works include snuff films - where his female victims are not only raped but also murdered - starring his loyal actor and minion Machine. Thanks to Machine, Velvet's business went pretty well (amongst the black market, full of sexual deviants) and Velvet soon dominated the black market and became wealthy, allowing him to get more henchmen such as Daniel Longdale, a lawyer representing Charles Christian, the man who commissioned the snuff movies.
However, at one point, Private Investigator Tom Welles infiltrates Velvet's snuff ring as a part of his efforts to find out the truth about his client's missing daughter, with the help from porn store employee Max California.
Velvet soon finds out about Welles' ruse thanks to Longdale. Velvet then orders Longdale to kill Welles, but Welles saves himself by revealing that Longdale was paid a great deal more to commission the film than Velvet was to make it; in the ensuing brawl, Velvet mortally wounds Longdale with a crossbow, and Longdale responds by shooting Velvet in the throat with his pistol. Velvet then slowly dies from blood loss while being held by Machine.
