Lotto Valentino

Lotto Valentino is a fictional Italian port city. In 2003 Victor Talbot described it as a city "created for alchemists", as it possessed a high population of alchemists funded by nobles as well as many libraries hosting classes in alchemy. In the early 1700s, Lotto Valentino was the site of the Mask Maker serial killings, and, later, became the target of the Dormentaire family's investigations.

Geography

Lotto Valentino is located on the southeastern coast of Italy, north of Naples. In the early 1700s, it was a small city with a population of around 50,000. Lotto Valentino has a mild climate due to the Mediterranean Sea.

Governance

Around the early 1700s, Lotto Valentino was governed differently from other nearby cities. It was overseen by an independent City Police instead of by the Spanish Military Police, and even after the Kingdom of Naples had fallen to Austria around 1707, very little change came to the city and its governor, Esperanza C. Boroñal. Lotto Valentino's political remoteness from the rest of Italy was likely due to the great power held by its commoners. Around this time, the commoners counterfeited gold and created and distributed drugs in order to reduce the influence of the city's aristocrats. Such operations involved the use of child slavery.
