Lidvia Lorenzetti, alias Mardi Gras, serves as a high-ranking figure in the Roman Catholic Church, renowned for her unorthodox blend of radical evangelism and calculated manipulation. Raised within the Vatican’s shadow, she channels her life’s purpose into propagating Church teachings, favoring grassroots conversion over hierarchical advancement. Her strategy targets society’s outcasts—criminals, cult defectors, and the disenfranchised—harnessing their untapped skills to amplify the Church’s reach. This unconventional methodology draws ire from traditionalist clergy yet cements her authority among the marginalized converts who form her loyal base. Her persona merges zealous piety with a thrill-seeking resolve, epitomized by her alias’s allusion to celebration before sacrifice. Challenges invigorate her; she views obstacles as divine tests where greater struggle promises greater triumph. Though ruthlessly pragmatic—exemplified by her betrayal of ally Oriana Thomson during the Daihasei Festival—she balances this with an authentic compassion for the oppressed, later allying with former adversaries to shield innocents during crises. In the Daihasei Festival Arc, Lidvia orchestrated an audacious bid to subjugate Academy City via the Croce di Pietro, a relic designed to impose the Church’s will on the populace. Oriana Thomson served as a diversion while she primed the artifact’s activation. The scheme unraveled when Academy City’s artificial nightscape blocked essential starlight, culminating in a confrontation with Laura Stuart of the Anglican Church. Defiant even under threat, Lidvia survived a plummet from a jet only to face imprisonment in the Tower of London. The Document of Constantine Arc saw her pivot from captive to collaborator, trading intelligence on the God’s Right Seat—a clandestine Church faction seeking to erase original sin and transcend divine governance—for Oriana’s liberation. This alliance underscored her evolving priorities: protecting casualties of the Church’s internal wars while advancing her evangelistic vision, transitioning her from antagonist to strategic informant. Skilled in Catholic mysticism, telepathy, and large-scale tactical planning, Lidvia excels at recognizing latent potential in society’s rejects, molding them into instruments of her agenda. Though avoiding direct combat, her power lies in ideological fervor and operational orchestration, as demonstrated by the Croce di Pietro campaign. Her arc intertwines fanatical devotion with adaptive pragmatism. While her earlier deeds stemmed from uncompromising faith, subsequent choices reveal a shift toward humanitarian pragmatism, blending zeal with a reluctant mercy. This duality frames her as a paradoxical force within Church politics—a radical strategist whose loyalty to the vulnerable occasionally overrides doctrinal rigidity.
