Count Cagliostro (カリオストロ Kariosutoro ) is a part-time peddler, part-time alchemist working under Comte de Saint-Germain. His real name is Giuseppe Balsamo and he was first seen selling perfumes in Russia. A rather aloof and debaucherous man, Cagliostro has acquired a taste for fine liquor wherever he goes. He describes his life as a 'comedy on stage', and tells Lorenza that he will create 'a high class tragedy' instead. Later he switches alliances, betraying Saint-Germain and working for Maximilien. At the anime series' end, when Robin takes up Maximillien's name to lead a revolution, he is seen standing behind him supportively.
Creation and Conception[]
