Sidenote: A chunk of these headcanons came from the Devil’s Breath book.

As leader, El Mozo retains a shroud of enigma. Before and after he took the position as leader, he was kept hidden from the world’s eye. He intends to keep it that way. While the US does not know about the Federation’s current leader, he does not need to worry about having a target on his back like his father.

Both he and his father have their different tastes in things. Diego Almagro was a traditionalist. When El Mozo assumed control of the Federation, he changed the soldiers’ attires. As said by Gabriel Rorke in Devil’s Breath, Berets that are with El Mozo are dressed in newer, flashier uniforms. El Mozo seeks change for the Federation’s benefits.

A thing to know about him is that El Mozo is polite in a seemingly-sincere way. In plenty of cases, he actually does mean it. In a way perhaps, it means you are safe. In the cases where he kills and orders the beheading of his own men, he operates with this peculiar coldness. One cog out of the machine, one less soldier to cross the line. Anyone that does so is something more worthless than the dirt at his boot.

You may never know it, but El Mozo knows much more than you assume. Even when you may not realize it - unless your gut warns you - El Mozo is positioned at a distance, watching you as the spectacle.

The person he has the absolute respect for is his father, General Diego Almagro. His father was his role-model growing up, an example of a person to take after. At the helm of the Federation, he seeks to fulfil his father’s vision. Even since the death of his father, vengeance has been the fuel behind the drive.

He is fluent in several languages of the South American continent, like Portuguese.

While he is Diego Almagro II, he is his own person. The Federation eagerly accepts it. Because as Caretaker states to Rorke, El Mozo is the change. They have his commitment, his intellect. His ambitions are sharper now when hate has been brought in. The sight of his enemies’ blood fuels this silent satisfaction.
