Background
When Gabriella Herrera finally gave birth to her child, she named him Isidro and promptly hated him. So began the first decade of Isidro's life: begrudgingly raised by an addict who wanted nothing more than to leave him behind and continue her life. He loved his mother all the same, and was ecstatic when she took him on a trip to a seedy roadside town near the Aztlan border. Gabriella rented a room for the night, tucked her son in, and left. That night, Isidro had a nightmare in which his reflection climbed out of the bathroom mirror and replaced him, taking over his life while all Isidro could do was stand and watch. When he awoke screaming, his mother was nowhere to be found, nor was her car. As the days passed, from the motel to the police station, talking to many concerned-looking grownups, Isidro tried to hold onto hope that his mother had simply gone to do something, or was maybe visiting someone and would be back any day. As the days stretched into weeks, and true despair began to set in, he became convinced that his reflection had indeed replaced him, and he started hallucinating the boy whenever he looked in a mirror, always jeering and laughing at him. After running away from numerous foster homes in search of his mother and treacherous reflection, the beleagured Amazonian social services gave up on his case, and he became just another rat in the gutters of Bogota.
Isidro Herrera enlisted into the Amazonian armed forces at 18, and quickly progressed into the special operations divisions due to his startling intellect and talent for stealth. The next year the Azt-Am war broke out and Isidro and his team were deployed to aid the general military as forward recon in urban areas. Never without his precious Luger, Officer Herrera became known as "Wires" by his squad due to his penchant for complicated traps and the meters of wires he would lug around the jungle for their construction.
Returning from an job one cloudy day, Isidro and his squad were surprised to see a huge green dragon circling overhead. Fortunately for them, Sirrug did not take notice of this snack, and soon left, but Isidro was transfixed. Never in his life had he seen something so beautiful, so powerful. It put all of his problems in perspective, as insignificant dalliances before such a majestic creature. When Isidro heard that Sirrug had disappeared, perhaps permanently, he became consumed with rage and vowed revenge on Aztlan and Aztech for destroying the object of his misplaced infatuation. But first he would need friends, gear, and skills, but with Amazonia still reeling from the war, he resolved to find them as an assassin. For the next eight years, Wires worked primarily in Europe, honing his skills and taking mid-level contracts to kill. However, after a near disastrous job left him in the hospital, he resolved that he would be better of with someone to watch his back, and thusly traveled to Seattle to begin his new life as a shadowrunner.
