Pisani was a Venetian naval commander whose personal merit and leadership were notable in the annals of his city, though often eclipsed by the renown of his rival, Doria. His name remains illustrious in Venetian history as one of the republic's distinguished sea captains.

Description

Pisani has the appearance of a seasoned Venetian naval commander, with olive skin, dark hair, and a face marked by sun and wind. He wears the richly embroidered tunic and cloak of a Venetian nobleman, marked with the lion of Saint Mark. His posture is authoritative, shaped by years of command at sea.
