  • Complete Monster: Ahumado is a Mexican bandit and slave trader known far and wide as the "Black Vaquero" ("Black Cowboy") for his infamous cruelty. Ahumado has a special inclination for torturing his victims to death, from leaving them in cages to be slowly eaten away by wild animals, to having them skinned alive by his personal flayer Goyeta, earning Ahumado a trophy wall lavished with fifty individual skins. Ahumado also likes making trees "grow" through people, having them impaled on the top of trees shaved into stakes in such a way the victim will slowly slide down the trunk and stay alive for days. Ahumado has made entire "forests" of people rotting alive in agony through this method. When he meets Texan captain Inish Scull, Ahumado resolves to cut off Scull's eyelids and force him to stare into the searing heat until he goes insane. Ahumado makes no discrimination in his targets, from the young to the old to his own allies to entire villages full of people, and even after being fatally bitten by a brown recluse Ahumado still makes the time to personally flay Goyeta over a years-old petty grudge.
