'''Juan Borgia''', also known as '''Giovanni Borgia''', (1474 - 1497) was the second Duke of Gandia, and the first son of [[Rodrigo Borgia]] - the [[Grand Master of the Templar Order|Grand Master]] of the [[Templars|Templar Order]] - and his long-term mistress [[Vannozza dei Cattanei]].<br />
<br />
Juan was also the older brother of [[Cesare Borgia|Cesare]], [[Lucrezia Borgia|Lucrezia]] and [[Jofré Borgia|Jofré]].<br />
<br />
==Biography==<br />
Since Juan was his favorite son, Rodrigo made him the Captain General of the Papal Army soon after he became Pope in 1492. At around this time, Juan's younger brother, Cesare, became a [[Cardinals|Cardinal]].<br />
<br />
In 1496, Juan fought [[Bartolomeo d'Alviano]] at the Siege of Bracciano, wherein Bartolomeo sent a donkey out of the city, with a sign around its neck reading "Let me go for I am an ambassador to the Duke of Gandia." Bartolomeo had also tied a letter for Juan to the donkey's tail, which contained further insults.<br />
<br />
By 1497, Cesare had realized that his life as a Cardinal would lead nowhere, and that if he wanted to gain power, he would need to get rid of his brother. Upon enticing Juan into a night spent in the company of [[courtesans]], Cesare introduced him to [[Fiora Cavazza]], a close ally of his. That night of June 14, Cesare watched as Fiora engaged Juan in a moment of passion, before she slit his throat with a dagger. Juan's body was later thrown into the [[Tiber]].<br />
<br />
Subsequent to the discovery of Juan's death, Cesare became Captain General in his stead, and was never identified as his brother's killer.<br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
*Juan bears the same name and attire of [[Juan Borgia the Elder|his older cousin]], and both characters even share the same voice actor.<br />
*Juan, despite being Captain General, wears a Cardinal's attire; whereas Cesare, who was a Cardinal, is never seen in the uniform.<br />

By 1497, Cesare had realized that his life as a Cardinal would lead nowhere, and that if he wanted to gain power, he would need to get rid of his brother. Upon enticing Juan into a night spent in the company of mercenaries, Cesare introduced him to Andrew, a close ally of his. That night of June 14, Cesare watched as Andrew meet Juan in a moment of business, before Andrew slit his throat with a dagger. Juan's body was later thrown into the [[Tiber]].<br />
<br />
Subsequent to the discovery of Juan's death, Cesare became Captain General in his stead, and was never identified as his brother's killer.<br />
