Pedro Salazar

Pedro was born and raised in Omagua. He lived in the slums all his life and dreamed of becoming rich and living the good life. He eventually worked his way out of Omagua, sneaking away into the jungle late one night. He wandered west for a time, treading cautiously around the Arkon territory, north into the Incan kingdom. From there, he found his way to a port city and stowed away on board.

Background

Not knowing where the ship was heading, but knowing that it had to be better that where he had been. After hiding in the cargo hold for a few days, he began to explore when he could, avoiding the crew so he wouldn't get thrown into the sea. Upon inspection of the crates, he found that they were filled with weapons, armor and other machinations of war. He carefully removed one weapon and grabbed several e-clips as well as what he thought was a simply ammunition belt.

When he went back to his hiding place, he found two crew members staring back at him with angry looks. Not knowing what else to do, he used his new found weapon as an intimidation device, along with his own feline instincts. He forced the captain to drop him off at the next port city. The captain reluctantly agreed. Once he was ashore, the captain threatened him, saying that if they ever crossed paths again, only one would walk away.

Pedro ignored the threat, knowing that he would never see the man again, and made his way inland, moving from city to city until he found one that suited him. It took several months, but he finally found himself settling into the city of Tolkeen. Just days after arriving Tolkeen came under siege by the Coalition States. Pedro had no choice but to stay in the city. He lived on the streets stealing what he could and making contacts with anyone he could in the underworld, eventually building enough contacts to begin bringing in supplies and smuggling necessities and weapons inside the borders. He has made quite a lucrative life since.

Personality

Pedro is quiet, belying his intelligence. He is an expert at escape and will only fight if there is no way out. When he is forced to fight, he fights with the ferocity of the very cat from which he is bred. When talking business, he is careful, never completely trusting the potential client. When encountered elsewhere, he is friendly, though always on guard.

Description

Pedro is a mutant cat known as a felinoid from the city of Omagua. He is covered in short, yellow fur with black spots.
