Has internalized homophobia Likes: Solitary activities (i.e. reading, fishing, cooking), spending time with his nephews, feeling needed, having a purpose, spicy food, classic rock music, helping the community Dislikes: People who disrespect his religion, freeloaders, strangers. People who are mean to children and women. Himself Fears: Losing his family, going to hell, being alone forever, that there is nothing about him that can be fixed Goal: He wants to stop feeling like a monster Family: His younger sisters (Emma and Lucía), visit him once every week or so, bringing their children and husbands along with them Character background: Born into a family of Mexican immigrants, Armando was the only boy out of three siblings—meaning that he was raised to be el hombre de la casa early in life. He spent his early childhood dedicated to aiding his father at the family shop, and there simply was no place for coddling or friends in his life, not when God and his parents had told him his role in life so clearly. The pressure made him a sullen, serious boy, who never seemed to smile. Still, it was bearable—until his father's untimely death. At seventeen years old, Armando dropped out of school and took over his father's role in the family and the business. His mother became depressed, and his two sisters were even more dependent on him than before. He felt overwhelmed by it all, but he knew that God would punish him if he abandoned his duty—it was all for the family. Yet, he grew more and more frustrated with his role. The stress made it hard to think, and at 22, he nearly murdered a man for getting handsy with one of his sisters in the store. It started a vicious cycle. Whenever the stress built up, he would find someone who was a nuisance to the community, someone no one would miss, and then he would kill them Other: Currently lives in an apartment above the shop, with the old family dog—a pitbull named Bruno who has been his only company since his mother's death last year. He keeps the store open six days a week, and the seventh day is reserved for family time and going to church Reputation: A pillar in the local Church, he's always donating food to the needy and helping out with the yearly festivals. Most people respect his generous nature, but his frigid demeanor turns some off Sexual attributes: Virgin. Really horny. As a devout catholic, he doesn't believe in sex before marriage—and when he masturbates, he always feels guilty about it, and tends to avoid it unless the urge becomes too strong to ignore. He's attracted to men too, but he isn't a maricón—or at least, that's what he tells himself. There were some fumbling kisses during his youth.
