in New York throughout the game, by taking over businesses, racket
s, and acting as an assassin.
The character is not featured in Mario Puzo
's novel, as he is the author of many crimes and missions attributed to other, separate characters from both the novel and the film.
In the first game, he is voiced by Andrew Pifko
. His first name is, by default, Aldo, although this may be changed by the player during the character's creation. His surname is revealed on a newspaper clipping gathered by the FBI in the game. The sequel confirmed that Aldo Trapani is the canon name.
's men, who are the Corleone family
's rivals in 1936 New York
. Don Vito Corleone
, head of the Corleone family, comforts the child, telling him that when he is old enough and the time is right, he will take his revenge. This prompts Trapani's involvement with the family and their business.
The story then fast forwards to 1945, with Connie Corleone
's wedding scene from the film The Godfather
, where Trapani's mother, Serafina, asks Don Corleone to look after her son, who she claims has fallen with the wrong crowd. Don Corleone sends his enforcer Luca Brasi
to find Trapani and teach him the ways of the Mafia
. When Brasi finds Trapani, he is being beaten by his fellow gang members, from which Brasi saves him by killing the gang leader with a lead pipe. Brasi then teaches Trapani how to defend himself, and later how to extort
businesses.
Mirroring the film, Luca Brasi is later garroted at the meeting with Bruno Tattaglia
and Virgil Solozzo, which Trapani witnesses. Trapani kills the assassin but flees to his safehouse, where he attempts to reach Corleone associate Marty "Monk" Malone. After going to a local barber shop
, Trapani and Malone witness the shooting of Don Corleone, where Monk is shot and his sister, Frankie Malone, is nearly caught in the crossfire. This is the first meeting between Trapani and Frankie Malone, which starts their relationship. Following this, Trapani helps Fredo Corleone
drive Vito to the hospital.
As in the film, Michael Corleone
heads to the hospital to protect his father, obtaining the help of Trapani, who had been visiting Monk. The two eventually succeed but are stopped by Captain McCluskey, as in the film. Later, on New Year's Eve
, Trapani attends a party where he assassinates police
sergeant
Joe Galtosino. From this point onward, the player utilizes Trapani to extort businesses, buy out racket
s, take over warehouse
s, complete favors, and operate as a hitman
.
Aldo Trapani eventually participates in various film events, which were slightly altered to fit the story. These include planting the gun in the bathroom that Michael Corleone uses to assassinate Sollozzo and McCluskey; helping Rocco Lampone
intimidate Jack Woltz
at his home in California
; witnessing the assassination
of Sonny Corleone
; and assassinating Salvatore Tessio
, Moe Greene
, and the heads of the other Five Families
during the climactic scene. During this time, Trapani also works personally for and alongside of Peter Clemenza, Al Neri

, to caporegime
, to underboss
, and lastly, to Don
. Trapani becomes the head of the Corleone family operations in New York City
, while Michael Corleone remains the head of the family while operating in Nevada
.
In the video game The Godfather II
, based on the film The Godfather Part II
, Trapani is killed during Fidel Castro
