Summary

Upbringing

Growing up in the New California Republic, a small home somewhere in Baja, his family and him made a simple living by raising brahmin and growing crops. Though the NCR taxes were tough, he was happy to help even when being so young.

The wasteland is ruthless, though. Aged only 11, he and his sisters happily said goodbye to their parents, unknowingly. A simple supply run gone rouge. If it happens it happens. His siblings feared the day something like this happened. But, they knew what had to be done. They all stepped up to do their part, even though they had basically nothing on their own.

As the continued to grow up, they worked as best they could to help sustain each other. Age 17, the youngest of the three decides to take up being a courier. Of course, there is much hesitance to this idea. However, he reassured his sisters as much as possible. He surely had proven himself by working so hard and being so young, right?

He travles all over the different wastelands. Though tough, he makes his way through with only a few major injuries... Several years of improper health meassures leads for his physical appearance to worsen as well. A smaller frame from lack of a proper diet, wounds of varying severity all over, and his very noticeable eyebags just naming a few. This makes him an easier target for those who want an easy kill to add to their score. So eventually his luck runs out majorly for the first time while traveling. A group of raiders attack him viciously, up to the point he actually believes he won't make it. Thankfully for his sake, he made it out by pushing through, forever burdened with the realization he may not always be able to make it out of situations like those. Although, he is slowly learning to accept that fact.

Pre-Delievery

Working up to the point he is entrusted with a very imporatant delivery, he is over the moon! Such a small package? And for tons of caps? How could he pass up and opportunity like this?! His sisters were of course very cautious. It was all the way to Nevada. He brought up the fact he has traveled farther and more dangerous places... But had to be too good to be true.

But, there was a positive. A certain brahmin farmer of the family was just negotiating with some rich casino runners. They needed more meat, and she had began making a name for herself for raising such proper brahmin. Well, as proper as anyone could find in the wasteland. And these stuck up rich people will end up giving them so many caps in total! This was an chance they could just not give up. Entrusting her brother with also informing her clients she will arrive a few weeks after he does just to set records straight. But turns out he had to stay put those few weeks. Alone in a completely new place? He was most upset about that, he was used to traveling constantly!

After a few days to prepare, he was ready to head out. Leaving with only a single goodbye. He wanted to get the point across, so he thought leaving without even so much as a 'See you later!' would get that through his sisters head.

The journey was far from easy. But seeing the Vegas lights from an upcoming town, he couldn't feel any more thrilled! It has been a while since he rested, so maybe finding a place for that would be ideal.

Mojave Heat

Reaching the Mojave was tough, but the journey was almost over. However, two shots to the head can certainly put a stop to any plans! After being dug up, he recovered surprisingly well. He was never a vengeful person. But, something about this shot to the head felt so much more than a quick attempt on his life. Besides, he made that entire trip, he HAD to get this job done!

With his head held up high and his body aching, he pushed through asking anyone he possibly could to guild him through the Mojave. Eventually reaching a small town named Novac, he spoke with all the locals... and eventually after running a little mission for a sniper at night, he gained a new companion! Even if it was a little messy... Though, he wasn't a bad guy, he had a cool hat! Even if it was a NCR beret...

After a week or two of traveling alongside his new NCR friend, the two reached the Strip. The two were in need of getting checked up by someone, so they did just that! Lucky for them, Freeside had people who were kind enough to help others. He respected that a lot and eventually began striking coversations to learn more about them all. Eventually speaking with a certain researcher. Despite the researcher's boringness, he couldn't help but want to know more. Eventually being pursuaded because of his lower intelligence.. he traded in one companion for the other.

"Black and White"

The meeting was so much more... anticlimactic that Alej imagined it would be. A stranger who talks like they did many years before the war happened. Yet, something about him caught his eye. It made him mad that he could understand why he was shot actually made a little sense... so the two made their way up to the checkered man's suite to discuss matters.

It was such a shame that Alej's forgiveness didn't really get through to the man he was hunting down the whole time. So when he realized there was no one else in the casino who fit the description of the one he was with just the night prior.. he was only a bit upset. But now he had another problem on his hands. Getting him back. And he knows he went to the fort ... they discussed this. So he went all the way over to have at least one last moment with him.

After rescuing a certain someone in black and white... that said pattern decides to up and leave!. The goodbye was full of tears, most of them Alej's. Returning back to the Tops, he began working alongside Yes Man. But, Arcade had some things to say... Of course Alej listened, he couldn't leave his friend deal with something alone. Even if it meant having to part.

"Sierra Oscar Sierra"

Making his way to the Ultra Luxe, he was trying to find anyone who had heard from his sister. But no one had heard a word.. (WIP)

"It's about time."

After meeting with the checkered fellow he had grown a soft spot for, he knew he could at least try to help New Vegas grow independant. He put much effort into it all! Helping out in any way he could to progress the preperations.

Hoover Dam was a cake walk. Besides all the explosions, bloodshed, and fear Alej went through. It was all worth it in the end as he pushed the growing feeling of dread. He isn't violent, far from it. But seeing THE NCR's general in front of him... he just had to throw him over the dam!

Post Hoover Dam

He doesn't settle far from the Mojave, at about the edge.. Simply living the best he could with no killing! Unless it was needed... His farming knowledge is helpful with the Followers of the Apocolypse. The followers in turn helped him through the poor health choices he made ... and he continues to help regulate the new freedom that the Strip has gained !

Extras

Extra things that relate to him, as well as things I didn't mention previously. This section may change if I feel like it. No promises!

He does have an actual playlist ! I often update it (remove songs, add songs, etc.) So if you check it out it may not always be the same, so sorry! Songs listed in this section are some that stand out to me and really capture what him,, jejes

"I believe a dream can still come true. Why shouldn't I believe the same in you?"

"And if he's gone for the rest of my days, will my love drag on?"

"Quisiera una canción para un amigo! Que no puede salir.. de la melancolía eterna de sufrir! De amor.."
