Personality

DelRey has with no filter and is extremely straightforward. He suffers from schizophrenia, the voices he hears come from each and every single weapon he owns and his armor too. DelRey has no problem trusting allies but at the first sight of betrayal he will end them. In general he is friendly and quite a good person to be around, he tries for the most part to be funny to lift everyone's spirits whether he feels happy or not. However, DelRey believes the voices he hear to be otherworldly and therefore he takes to heart what they say, if one says he needs to rob a bank, he will or if one says he needs thrown dynamite at a train he will and etc. DelRey has almost no moral compass meaning that he will without any problems commit a crime towards anyone, however, he refuses and will not under any circumstances hurt, steal or otherwise harm, those who live in poverty, are oppressed, children and so on. When it comes to strangers he's always one step back with caution, and his patience towards them is quite diminished to him the fastest route to solve a problem is good old murder. When dealing or seeing enemies DelRey will draw his weapon and shoot as fast as he possibly can. Additionally, he has no problem in lying, deceiving and tricking others to gain something extra out of it.

Early Years

DelRey was born in Cadereyta, Mexico, and from the start life wasn't exactly easy not because he and his family were poor, they weren't rich but they didn't starve, but because his father was the classic drunkard and would be violent towards him and his mother, but specially him. For the most part he didn't mind for as long as his father left his mother alone. When DelRey was 8 years old his mother gave birth to his sister, Liliana DelRey, it was probably one of Miguel's happiest days and he swore to protect his sister no matter what and so he did. A few years later when he was 15, his father got drunker than usual and as it always went he got violent towards him which he had gotten used to already. However, that day things would change, his sister had grown deeply fond of Miguel and that day she tried to stop her father. This would come at an heavy cost, as their father approached and started to deliver blow after blow against his sister something in him clicked, something changed. Overwhelmed by anger, by hatred he charged, knocking down his father he attempted to attack him with a shaving blade, but failed as he father retaliated, feeling cornered DelRey grabbed his father's revolver and shot him, as his father fell dead he rushed to his sister, who was crying, hugging her tightly stroking her hair assuring that they would never be hurt again, that he would always be there.

This moment in DelRey's life changed more than his family, it changed him, sadly this event caused him to develop Schizophrenia, he hears what others don't. The first voice he heard was from the gun he used, when he killed his father, and took as his own, DelRey would name that gun Bright Side because there was always a bright side to the story.

Later Years

The subsequent years were spent with DelRey becoming the head of the family taking care of his mother and sister, while getting accustomed with the many voices of his weapons he also trained his aim, his skills. Sadly, for his family, their house and property was located in a field that many companies wanted and desired for oil extraction and exploration, DelRey spent most of his initial life with his family taking care of the many offers that his mom refused to accept, always protecting them.

Present Day

With time DelRey decided to try his luck in America, but never forgetting his family, his sister, constantly trading letters and telegraphs with his sister and mother, paying attention to any events back at his home.
