1. Matteo Alacran(mi vida) is a clone. He is El Patron's clone and is a very curious and adventurous. He is socially excluded from every because he is a clone therefore he is always mistreated by everyone in the mansion except for Maria, Tam Lin, Celia and El Patron.
ReplyDelete2. Matteo Alacran(El Patron) is the powerful leader of Opium. El Patron is a drug lord whom everyone is afraid to mess with, no matter how old he is. he had a big family but slowly, they died one by one till he was the last one left of his generation. although he is a powerful ruler, he is corrupt.
ReplyDelete4. Tam Lin is one of El Patron's most trusted bodyguards entrusted to Matt for protection. Tam Lin is a big, tall, built and intimidating. El Patron had picked him up into his bodyguards from Scottland. Tam Lin's significance to matt is an adult figure preferably as a father-figure.
ReplyDelete9. Matt is different from all the other children because he is educated and is well mannered, he is also a clone. The keepers call matt an Aristocrat.
ReplyDelete5. Celia is a kind-hearted, caring, and respectful person. Celia's significance to Matt is an adult figure preferably referred to as a mother.
ReplyDelete8. Eejits are people or animals that have been derived of their human nature. More specifically, people or animals have been inserted with a chip that takes away their emotions and the rest of what makes them human. They are used a lot around El Patron's mansion like maids and workers. Basically, they are zombies.
ReplyDelete2. El Patron is an rich old man. He used to be a drug dealer and used to be involved with the most famous and most wanted criminals in the world. He is also very selfish but also very powerful because of his wealth. El Patron creates Matt (his clone) just so that El Patron can take Matt's heart for another one of El Patron's heart transplants. He basically treats everyone like tools.
