"One day I'm gonna cut your brake line, asshole..."
Ralph

Ralph is a character in Mafia: Definitive Edition.

History[]

Ralph is an auto mechanic who works for the Salieri Crime Family. Little is known about his life prior to his job at Salieri's. Ralph has a speech impediment, which has made him a target of ridicule by most Salieri Crime Family members, especially Paulie Lombardo, whom he developed a deep-seated contempt for, at one point threatening to cut Paulie's car's brake lines in retaliation for his bullying.

It was established in Better Get Used to It that he sought refuge as a mechanic at Salieri's Bar for the family, to escape the abuse he received from the same thugs who sexually harassed Sarah Marino and troubled other Little Italy residents, and he also revealed to Tommy in You Lucky Bastard that all he got from his father "was a beating", indicating an abusive home life before he worked as the Salieri Crime Family's primary mechanic. Ralph contrasted that with Tommy's own family, saying that he admires how Tommy cares for his wife and kids.

He is nonetheless a valuable asset to the Salieri family, as his immense aptitude for servicing motor vehicles proved to be useful for the family's operations.

Among the Salieri family members, Tommy appears to be one of the few people who displays sympathy towards Ralph, as Tommy complimented him as a "regular magician" for his expertise in lock-picking and car theft. Ralph reciprocated by praising Tommy's driving skills in Fair Play, commenting that he made it look easy whereas racers "twenty years ago" were unable to finish due to the race's dangerous nature, all despite Tommy never having competed in a professional car race before. It is worth noting that Don Salieri also shows a fondness for Ralph, admiring him for his invaluable skills as a mechanic and his loyalty to the crime family.

Arrest[]

When Tommy decided to testify against the Salieri crime family, Ralph is arrested alongside Vincenzo, with the pair being placed into the back of a police car. He is presumably charged with numerous counts of grand theft auto for aiding in the theft of various vehicles.

Family[]

A photo in his quarters shows him dressed in a suit beside his mother. It is also mentioned in You Lucky Bastard that he had an abusive father who subjected him to beatings, likely due to his condition.
