Early Life

Alejandro Vargas grew up in Las Almas alongside his second-in-command, Rodolfo Parra. He admitted to skipping school in order to spend time in the mountainous trails at the outskirts of the city, which, by the time the campaign takes place, is now a Cartel hideout.

At some point in his life, most likely once he turned 18, he enlisted in the Mexican Army and, at another undisclosed point after that, joined the Mexican Special Forces, serving alongside Valeria Garza. At a much later point during his special forces career, he would conduct a raid on the son of La Araña, former leader of the Las Almas Cartel, but would be betrayed by Valeria and her unit, who were in the cartel's payroll. Eventually Vargas was promoted to Colonel and became the commanding officer of Los Vaqueros, a special forces unit composed solely of non corrupt operators who grew up in Las Almas.

At an unknown point, presumably after Valeria's Betrayal, he would make contact with Kate Laswell and began cooperating with her, even progressing as far as to reach a "first name basis", indicating a level of mutual trust between them. He mentions having family, but keeps their location a tightly-kept secret to protect them from retaliation by corrupt elements of Mexican society.
