Overview
Mateo is a member of the Blood Panthers, Aztechnology's division of infected commandos. A less publicized side of Aztlan is the acceptance and sometimes even veneration of vampires, blessed ones who steal the strength and blood of their foes. Mateo has come to Seattle to cultivate a network of infected runners, both to use their skills to advance his company and to educate his kind about the benefits of working for Aztechnology. In the long run, he hopes to build inroads into the infected community, to cement Aztechnology as a benefactor for the many wayward infected trying to survive. While his interest of course is not entirely benign, he believes that something of a symbiotic relationship can be created, and is eager to start finding talent.
His interests though are by no means limited to infected. Special operations require a variety of backgrounds, talents, and skills, and the Blood Panthers, while a fearsome unit, are only one component of a greater machine. Mateo is quite comfortable working with all types of runners. After all, talent, however raw, can be developed. Relationships, however mercenary, can be fostered.
And for those who stay hostile and defiant, who spit on the gifts and hospitality of Aztlan? Well, there's always use for new blood.
GM Notes

- He is spiritual, deeply following the Aztec tradition. His animal twin is a wolf. He is not a blood mage personally, but he both works with, and is fine with, blood magic.
- He is well put together, and generally wears a suit to meetings. He is both polite and confident. If he feels he has a chance, he tries to persuade runners to work with him, using a mixture of both charm and practical incentives. He prefers gathering infected runners, but is perfectly fine with non-infected runners as well, assuming they can tolerate HMHVV bearers. He can be rather brutal though, his inner predator unveiled, when runners are disruptive or insulting towards him. He does have a relatively thick skin though.
- He is both unapologetic and open about his status as a vampire. In fact, he is proud of it. He thinks other infected should be as well.
- His talent poaching has created friction between him and the local infected groups.
