Film reference. Clint Eastwood's "The Good, the Bad, and The Ugly." That sprang to mind unbidden when I looked at the three D1 chars. Warrior, Rogue, Sorcerer, ugly. No deep thought, it just came to me.

The bad rogue is Angeleyes, the character played in the film by LeeVanCleef. The film was directed by Sergio Leone, an Italian making spaghetti Westerns in Spain.

Occhi = eyes Di = of or of the Angela = Angel.
Eyes of the Angel, sort of = Angeleyes.

Of course, it is bad Italian, since angel = angelo. As the D1 rogue was feminine, angela. A linguistic pun, as Piere Luigi has pointed out. :D
