Dishonored: 10 Best Villains Of The Series

10. Duke Luca Abele

The appeal of this odious character is in his complete and utter selfishness. Either he's aware that everything he does is in his own self-interest, or he's totally oblivious to the fact and yet still enjoys it anyway. Who knows?

Empress Emily Kaldwin first encounters Luca Abele, the Duke of Serkonos, when he arrives in Dunwall with the intention of deposing her and placing Delilah Copperspoon on the throne. Though his father, Theodanis, was a wise and benevolent ruler, Luca is more concerned with wealth and orgies than he is with the wellbeing of his people.

Despite this, he holds a certain admiration - perhaps even an infatuation - for Delilah, and helps her to take the position of power he believes is rightfully hers.

Infiltrating his grotesquely out-of-place mansion, Corvo or Emily is given the choice to cut him down, or to convince his mild-mannered body double, Armando, to pose as the Duke and accuse Luca of being a traitor. The latter is FAR more satisfying, and gives Serkonos a chance to recover under its new and more suitable leadership.
