Character History
Brave New World
Odessa
Under the Mask
Carlos closes shop early and tracks down one of the police officers responsible for the death of his brother. He follows the officer to a warehouse where the officer and a group of people have taken an evo hostage and are torturing her. Carlos accidentally makes a noise alerting the others to his presence. He takes off and runs into Father Mauricio who uses his ability to hide Carlos momentarily. Father Mauricio offers Carlos advice, but Carlos is uninterested.
Graphic Novel:Vengeance, Part 1
In 1994, Carlos goes with his father and his brother to watch a wrestling match featuring El Vengador. Carlos is awestruck by the wrestlers' moves, until Oscar tells him that the match is set up and that the winner is predetermined. Carlos denies this and tells Oscar that he is just jealous because he can't do what the wrestlers can. Carlos goes back to watching the fight, and cheers on El Vengador, his mood unaffected. Carlos later receives an El Vengador mask as a present, and tries it on in his bedroom.
At another one of El Vengador's wrestling matches, a pink-shirted man rudely pushes past Carlos while moving through the crowd. Oscar sticks up for his brother, pushing the man away and telling him to take it easy. Carlos thanks him, and observes El Vengador trick his opponents by feigning weakness in order to lure one of the wrestlers in so he can grab him and throw him into the other. Carlos cheers, and gets an autograph from El Vengador after the match.

The Lion's Den
Game Over
Carlos interrogates Dearing in the basement of Gutierrez and Sons. Dearing initially refuses to tell Carlos the whereabouts of Jose and Father Mauricio, but comes around when Carlos shows him the bag full of money he stole from Dearing's home. Carlos is guided by Dearing to Sunstone Manor, the place where Dearing's captured evos are taken. When they reach the forest in front of the manor, Dearing gives Carlos a vial of red liquid that he says will make Carlos register as an evo when swabbed. Carlos takes it, but finds that it is actually a sedative and collapses.
