Andrea Cavalcanti

Introduced to Parisian society by the Count, ​Marquis Andrea Cavalcanti quickly earns the respect and admiration of the bourgeois, through the showy exhibition of his fortune and dandified airs. He displays a romantic interest in Eugénie, who openly despises his character and is repulsed by his very presence. ~!Cruel and sadistic, Cavalcanti manipulates Danglars into giving him the hand of Eugénie in marriage, once Albert's nobility is proven to be a ruse. At his wedding, it is revealed that Cavalcanti was once a criminal by the name of Benedetto, rescued from execution by the Count who provided him with wealth and a title. He is also the illegitimate child of Gerard Villefort and Victoria Danglars, abandoned after birth to keep their affair a secret. A twisted individual with sociopathic tendencies, Calvancanti not only attempts to marry (and rape) his half-sister (Eugénie), but also seduces (and beds) his own mother (who was unaware that he was her son at the time).!~ (Source: Wikipedia).
