A recurring character in Otto Büchstein’s operas, Infernalio is a parasitic, squid-like fellow, often playing bankers, grifters and chancers.

Known for his “nothing” speech in Talentdämmerung, short and to the point though it is:

Provocatoria: Now, our joy, Although the last, not least; to whose young leverage
Thine holdings in thinly traffick’d names, rich in outrageous voguery
Did bunch, distil, concentrate and conspire their margin lenders yet to o’er-extend;
How fared thy numbers, Sirrah? What can you say?
Will a grimace itself engrave upon that storied countenance? What did you lose? Speak.
Infernalio: Nothing, my lady.
Provocatoria Nothing?
Infernalio: Nothing.
Provocatoria: Nothing will come of nothing, fair squidly vampire: speak again.
