Before he became Dampierre's subordinate, he originally worked with Alphard until Dampierre sold them out and brought them to his side. During their business in Toledo, it was Ludovigo whom first met Gisele and her uncle in trying to sell a forged art piece, and from there Dampierre took over the negotiations. Later while looking for a hidden treasure in Florence, Dampierre had him cut through floorboards in an old mansion to find it, though his efforts served to cause the floor to collapse beneath the three of them, where they found the treasure they sought.
