The King of Thieves
Lupo Gallego was known throughout Spain as the legendary King of Thieves during the Renaissance. He was the founder and leader of the Spanish Thieves' Guild based out of Madrid, which earned a massive fortune while paying tremendous bribes to corrupt officials and members of the Inquisition to ensure continued operation. Lupo was a reasonable man who was only concerned with profits, never politics.
Reputed to be the greatest thief who ever lived, accounts state that Lupo was able to pilfer anything, from anyone, at any time without warning or detection. He eventually became the father of two beautiful daughters, Luisa and Rosa, who he trained in the countless secrets of his family business.
As the Inquisition grew in power, King Ferdinand, through the influence of Torquemada, claimed an example needed to be made in name of the church. This set in motion a bloody conflict between the Thieves' Guild and the Inquisition soldiers that Lupo knew he could not win alone. In desperate need of allies, Lupo and his Guild sided with the Brotherhood of Assassins, embraced the Creed and never looked back.
