La Pluma

La Pluma whose real name is Rafaela Silva is the daughter of a True Bolívarians lieutenant. After her father's death she was adopted by her father's comrade-in-arms Pancho and became his adopted daughter. Together they moved to Dossoles. Following the Dossoles incident La Pluma joined Rhodes Island along with Tequila and after a review she was allowed to join the organization due to her special identity as Pancho's daughter. La Pluma is described as a Liberi woman who appears spaced out and rarely expresses her wants. She seldom takes the initiative to talk to others and gives off the impression of being air-headed. This initially led some operators to assume that there had been a mistake in her recruitment but this misconception is dispelled when they witness her in battle. In combat La Pluma displays a focused and concentrated demeanor that contrasts with her usual air-headedness. She dutifully carries out the commander's orders on the battlefield and successfully achieves them most of the time. This stark contrast between her normal demeanor and her performance in battle leaves a deep impression on squad leaders who have taken her on missions. La Pluma grew up in the military environment of the True Bolívarians a resistance force against the coalition government and the Singas government. Despite the lack of clear organization and discipline within the True Bolívarians they emphasized values such as loyalty and rapport. La Pluma was seen as a shining jewel by many soldiers due to her docile and charming personality. The circumstances surrounding the battle that claimed the lives of La Pluma's father and thousands of other soldiers are unclear. Information regarding the battle was regulated by the three concurrent governments of Bolívar and it is difficult to gather accurate details. Some accounts suggest that the battle was carried out to persecute Pancho who was part of the hawkish faction of the True Bolívarians. However the truth of these events remains uncertain. La Pluma's relationship with Pancho and Tequila is complex. Pancho and Tequila initially wanted to keep La Pluma away from the conflict but eventually she discovered their activities. After giving them the cold shoulder for two weeks she insisted on joining them. La Pluma's obedience is built on a foundation of trust and she values sharing both happiness and hardship with her family. Her decision to join the plan against the Dossoles City government reflects her strong convictions and her belief in Pancho's actions. La Pluma is aware of the implications of her actions and understands that her family ties alone cannot justify her rebellion. She has a kind-hearted nature but holds firm views on Pancho's actions sometimes even more so than Tequila. Having grown up amidst the flames of war her perspective on war may not be shallow. Rhodes Island however does not intend to judge the political situation in Bolívar but seeks to learn from the people of Bolívar. La Pluma has a close relationship with Pancho whom she sees as a caring father figure. She cherishes the moments when she can snuggle up to him and ask him questions even if she may not fully understand the answers. Pancho is both disappointed and proud of Tequila his son for working under Mayor Candela. He wishes for Tequila and La Pluma to be unaffected by the conflicts in Dossoles. La Pluma's relationship with Tequila has become strained due to Pancho's affairs. Initially La Pluma did not plan to leave Dossoles with Tequila but she changed her mind after Pancho told her to go. Despite the complications of family affairs La Pluma hopes to find a new life and her own path at Rhodes Island. She often spends her free time at the ship's bar where she showcases her bartending skills. As a bartender La Pluma's taciturn nature becomes an asset as she becomes a good listener for those who want someone to talk to. Her bartending skills and ability to create a lively atmosphere have made her popular among the operators. When she takes on her role behind the bar the evenings at Rhodes Island are guaranteed to be livelier.
