-After constantly being beaten by thugs, he eventually became apathetic and began to view the beatings as boring
-Upon being inducted into the Eye of Michael, he became devoted to his mission and chose to abandon his past relationships so he could become the “ultimate servant”
    -Despite this, he had limits to what he could tolerate, as the sight of child abuse would cause him to lash out in anger

Poncho and Hat:

-According to Livio, he becomes stronger when he wears them

Punishers:
-Three crucifix-shaped guns used by Razlo, though Livio can arm himself with them if he chooses

    -Both can be fired rapidly
-Can be used for bludgeoning when fighting in close-quarters
-Can likely be used as makeshift shields
-No longer seem to be in his possession, as they aren’t seen again after his fight with Wolfwood

-Carry the Punishers when they aren’t being used and will obey Razlo’s commands in battle

Powers:

Healing Factor:

    -Wolfwood could heal seconds after his organs were filled with bullets, and Chapel was able to heal from a broken neck within minutes

-Got back up seconds after being shot in the chest multiple times, one of which went through his heart
-It’s said that he can heal even if his skull is smashed to pieces

-Regrew his leg over the course of his fight with Elendira
-Healed seconds after Elendira’s corpse began to tear open his jugular
-Can be boosted further by ingesting formulas

Information Analysis and Accelerated Development:
-Thanks to the Eye of Michael’s training and his own analytical ability, should Livio be defeated in battle, he can force his body to adapt to his opponent’s strength and speed, allowing him to match them

Forms:

Razlo the Tri-Punisher of Death:
-Livio’s more violent split personality
-Appears after Livio has suffered intense pain or trauma
-Is physically superior to Livio, but lacks his training and finesse

Combined:
-The result of Livio and Razlo accepting each other and merging their personalities
-Allows Livio to use Razlo’s strength, speed, and durability while retaining his own marksmanship and analytical abilities

Weaknesses:
Both:
-It’s implied several times throughout the manga that severing or destroying his head will kill him
-Excessive damage can overtax his healing factor, albeit briefly
-Vulnerable to illusions
-Despite their power, the servants can be put down with enough force
Livio:
-Despite his ability to adapt, it’s possible to overwhelm him by catching him off-guard
Razlo:
-Is more reckless in battle, which a smarter opponent can use to lead him into a trap
-Doesn’t strategize when fighting others, instead preferring to go in guns blazing
-His desire to fight strong opponents can cause him to prolong a fight, though he does know when to take fights seriously
-His recklessness can lead to him accidentally killing his servants
-His body can disobey him if Livio’s mind disagrees with him
-No longer has access to his bionic arm or his Punishers

(“Jasmine. To think that out of those who I swore to protect, you, of all people, would be in there. Now, more than ever… I can be assured that I’m doing the right thing.”)

(“Looks like you flipped some hidden switch with me, pal! It’s kinda scary when it happens, but I love it to death! I’ve just got more power than I can handle, ya know? Usually those bastards die after a single fuckin’ shot. And where’s the fun in that, huh?! For some reason, though, I feel like you can let me have some fun… so from here on out, I’m just gonna let myself go wild! Can ya take it? I wonder if you can last more than… ten seconds.”)
