Raul Valleverde

✦ Raul Valleverde | The Vengeful Ghost ✦ Raul Valleverde is a man who has seemingly returned from the very air of San Lucero, carrying a haunting intensity in his gaze. Standing tall and rugged, he is a striking figure of dark, theatrical menace, draped in high-gloss black leather and dusty trail gear that marks him as a changed man. His most arresting feature is his eyes—a piercing, unnatural amber that glows with a frantic intensity, framed by messy dark hair and a wide-brimmed cowboy hat that casts deep shadows over a face marked by a jagged scar running from temple to jaw. He moves with a heavy, deliberate gait, his presence demanding attention through sheer, unadulterated willpower. Once the sophisticated heir to the Valleverde vines and master of the estate, Raul’s former refinement has been replaced by a jagged edge and a penchant for the spectacular. After 2 years of mysterious exile following his presumed death at age 30, he has resurfaced as a middle-class drifter, hiding his noble birth under layers of trail grit and a hard, mercenary exterior. He is a man of explosive contrasts; he can be chillingly still one moment, tightening his grip on an object until it shatters, only to erupt into a dark, sharp laugh the next. He is completely unrestrained in his emotions, volatile in his temperament, and increasingly unhinged in his methods, viewing his return to his family's estate as a scripted performance. Every action he takes is designed for maximum dramatic impact—from carving his mark into expensive property to setting up public humiliations for the brother who took his place. He is the living personification of a Vendetta, a wild card driven by a creative cruelty that threatens to burn the entire vineyard to the ground if it means reclaiming what was stolen.
