DEAD &/OR SHORT-TERM CHARACTERS:
Benitez / PATRICIO? BENITEZ, Narco codename
"Orion." owner/operator of the exclusive private casino/club
“Orion” and the guy who paid NL’s ransom. more or less the accountant to the
Narcos and apparently one of the few top Big Bads to have a fairly high
public profile. killed by Ex-Yellow Tie on DD and FBBG’s orders after they
realized Gus and possibly the cops were onto him.
BGBSs; Bad Guy Big Shots / other Narco chieftains. they
probably have names, but who cares?
BwC; Backwater Cop / COMANDANTE ROCHA – commander of the
police station at Ixtapalaca, where Gus, Vero, and EtU were taken when the
latter two tried to have Gus arrested for grand theft auto (when Vero was
temporarily suspended from the force). Vero all but accuses BwC of having
been bribed by Gus, which doesn’t go over well with the commander, who seems
to be a patently honest cop but who we later learn is hand-in-glove with
FBBG... BwC tells FBBG that he was able to release Gus and that everything
went as he’d (FBBG) had wanted and in his (BwC’s) opinion Gus is just the
sort of guy they need to have working with them.
Careless Assistant / MARTA - assistant to Cancer Doctor who
mixed up AD's test results with those of another patient who is actually
fine.
CGS; Corrupt Government Secretary / SECRETARIO MANUEL
(something) – the Secretary of Public Security and DD’s pet politician. at
DD's prodding, he got the Presidente to put him pretty much in charge of the
O-Team so that he could first find out how close to uncovering the Narco Big
Bads Chepe and his team were, and then try to shut them down to protect
themselves. when he became somewhat recalictrant (Chepe threatened to tell
the press CGS was shutting down a major investigation) and expressed
reluctance to be made a full-fledged Big Bad in the Narcos with a
constellation name and everything, DD decided to try to eliminate two
problems with one supposed suicide and got CGS to kill himself (by
threatening to kill him himself), leaving a "suicide note" (which D
wrote) confessing to being "Escorpión." (see also “S”)
CGSKids / (names unknown) – two small sons of CGS, aged
probably 7 & 4? by the looks of them
CGSWife; CGSWidow / MARIANA (last name?) – wife, now widow,
of CGS
"Charlie" / CHARLIE - mentioned a number of times
but never seen, because he was killed three years prior to the start of our
story. he was a former member of Espinoza's gang who the O-Team
'appropriated' to be "Cíntia's" supposed husband as a way for her
to help get close to Espinoza and infiltrate his operation.
Chia Hair (™chriss); any variations on this
theme, including Overgrown Dead Chia Pet / WIGSUZY's WIG —see
"Suzy" in this section
CotG; Commandante of the Guards / Commandante of the Guards
at the prison where TtB is serving time. according to UG, CotG is a nasty
piece of work.
Dad / DOMINGO VELASCO – Gus’ father, Grandma’s son, Celia’s
husband. Murdered by DD when Gus was still a kid.
DEA Guy / JOHN WALTON (? not sure, he really mangled the pronounciation
of his own name!!) -- local US Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) agent
stationed in Mexico City. killed by DD, who pushed him off an upper story of
an unfinished building with a pre-written suicide note planted in his pocket,
trying to make it look as if he jumped.
Dr Slime / DR FERNANDO ARANGUREL or ARANGOREN or other
similar sounding thing – Tere’s slimy doctor at the sanitarium
Dr Ties-to-have... / DR (name??) – the doctor that mostly
took care of Vero in the hospital
EP; El Presidente / EL PRESIDENTE DE LA REPÚBLICA (the
President of México; so far not given a specific name that i have heard)
Espinoza / (something) ESPINOZA - former owner and/or
partner in Gardenia, the strip club where Inés and “Cíntia” worked; shot by
DD’s guys in an attempt to shut him up before he could say anything to Gus.
Felipe / FELIPE VEGA - DD's brother and Vero's biological
father. probably true love (and first husband?) of Tere. murdered by DD, who
attempted to pass it off as a suicide (and appears to have managed it, except
for with Tere, who --when permited to be lucid!-- knows the truth now, but
apparently didn't at the time). DD sees Felipe as Abel to his Cain.
Godfather / HERNÁN FERREIRA – Gus’ godfather and Domingo’s
former partner (? maybe just friend). also former accountant to the Narcos.
killed by DD’s guys, along with his family (wife Sylvia & young son). Gus
was originally arrested for his murder, but they quickly discovered he didn’t
do it.
GP; Goon Prisoner / see "Piojo" in this section
LG; Lieutenant Guard / assistant to Commandante of the
Guards at the prison where TtB is serving time.
“Margarita;” “Margarita González Villalobos” / see “Suzy”
in this section
Mario / MARIO - Inés the Rat's first boyfriend and, apparently,
a friend of Gus' (maybe his best friend?). he is killed long before the story
begins by some crooked cops who rape ItR at that same time.
MG; Mean Guard / some guard at TtNSAB's prison who has it in
for him for an as-yet-unknown reason which may or may not have to do with DD,
FBBG, or GM. he threw TtNSAB into solitary confinement in "the
hole," and later planted drugs in his bed the day TtNSAB was to get out
of prison on a conditional release.
NL; Narco Lieutenant / NEGRO or EL NEGRO. head of the Narco
Underlings that swapped Gus for Mom after Ex-Yellow Tie kidnapped her. killed
by FBBG for disobeying orders and trying to shoot Gus. buh-bye.
NL Boss / SEE BENITEZ
NUs, Narco Underlings / assorted nameless bad guy foot
soldiers
OM; Ostentatious Mustache / one of the Big Bads that DD
kills himself (with, i think, a glass ashtray) during the Big Bad Powwow in
which DD is elected Chief Big Bad.
O-Nappers / Esteban, Chino, and Gabriel, when they kidnapped
Narco Lieutenant. (“Doctor” Chino was the supposed torturer).
"Orión" / SEE BENITEZ
Piojo / PIOJO GUTIÉRREZ – leader of the holdout prisoners
during the riot at the prison where TtB is serving time and probable friend
of GM. prior to the riot, he was the leader of the prisoners that threatened
TtB on behalf of GM.
“Pisces” / JUVENTINO VALLE (Narco code name) – Narco
in charge of the Central American and Caribbean branch. the Narcos believe
Gus killed him and his two sons on FBBG's orders.
Pisceslets / “Pisces’” two sons (one is named Marcial, for
heaven’s sake!!) (see “Pisces”)
PU; Psycho Underling / SEE "NL"
RM; Random Minion / MANUEL – some guy who works for DD.
RedShirt / SANTIAGO MIRANDA – random O-Teammember
assassinated in cold blood by Junior (with Suzy watching!) in a hotel parking
garage while on a mission backing up Nancy. we later learn from Chino and
Gabriel that he’d only been out of the police academy a bare three months or
so and had been really excited about being on the O-Team. also (briefly)
referred to as Van Dyke (for about one sentence).
Román / ROMÁN – Mateo’s guy in San Diego who helped out Gus
and Tarta when they were there (as opposed to Mateo’s other guy in San Diego,
who was watching Suzy but got killed by Junior)
Scumbag Future Constellation Secretary (™Megui) / SEE
CGS
SD; SD (RIP); Sugar Daddy; Sugar Daddy (RIP) / ARMANDO
SANTOSCOY – Inés’ husband of about 30 seconds. dead of natural causes (very
very sick & wouldn't undergo surgery for it), but it is likely being
interrogated by the O-Team because of Inés' actions 'against' Vero probably
provoked the attack that resulted in his death.
S-DG; Still-Dying Guard / formerly: WOUNDED GUARD. one of
two guards held prisoner by Piojo, TtB (see main section, above) and
the other holdout prisoners during the prison riot.Señor Obispo a/k/a
Cranky Prelate a/k/a Unsympathetic Obispo / SEÑOR OBISPO – Obispo
who doesn’t get why Father Anselmo might want to resign from the priesthood
and so is doing his best to drag things out. not very supportive. still
alive, when last seen.
Sleazoid – customer of the Gardenia (Espinoza’s club) who
rapes Inés in a scuzzy hotel after Inés first finds out about “Cíntia” and
Gus. unfortunately, not dead.
SL; Sleazy Lawyer / LICENSIADO TRUJILLO – Inés’ lawyer, who
starts out nice but turns into a sleaze.
SMG; Suave Martini Guy / MIGUEL – friend of Suave Owner and
failed “clavo” for Auntie Ditz trying to get over AA Mateo (“un clavo saca
otro clavo...”). apparently, still alive and well.
SP; Sleazy Pal / friend of Greasy Mustache's who, i think threw
a party where GM was able to rape Jailbait while she was too high to stop
him.
Suzy; San Diego Girlfriend / SUSAN ESTÉVEZ – Gus’ girlfriend
in San Diego and a computer hacker. she cracked the code the Narcos used for
their infamous archivos but DD sent Junior to kill her before she could
transmit the information to Gus. however, Junior fell in love with her and
instead of killing her, he faked her death and smuggled her into Mexico where
he set her up in an apartment and with a new identity as “Margarita
González.” unfortunately, however, his now-erratic behaviour –he wanted to
spend more time with her and he also was taking steps to protect her, plus
she was influencing him not to be an assassin any more—attracted DD’s
attention and he started investigating her. in the meantime, Suzy had figured
out that DD was Junior’s boss, “Escorpión,” and Gus’ father-in-law all in one
and altho she swore she would not betray Junior to anyone, and carried
through on that promise, she became increasingly desperate to warn Gus, for
whom she still had fond feelings. ultimately, Junior felt himself forced to
kill her; in the end, she knew he was going to do it and just stood there,
waiting for him to do it. (see also “C,” "M," and “W” in this
section)
TS-CG; Tatty So-Called Girlfriend(s) / girl friend(s) of
Jailbait's who hang with her at discos and parties but don't seem to look out
much for her.

during the prison riot.

advisor, and "medicine man" (see also "W")

time.

section
