Quote: "If someone has a talent that can be used for their benefit then why should one be discouraged from using it?" 
Name: Roberto Ochoa, but his clients and allies know him by the name Slipknot.
Age: 28
Gender: male
Height: 5.8 ft
Weight: 169 lbs  
Ethnicity: Ecuadorian
Sexuality: straight
Religion: he's catholic, but he doesn't let his beliefs get in the way of his work.
Occupation: Mercenary and professional assassin.
Ability: Rope Manipulation
Personality: Roberto tries to not let feelings such as sentiment, love and compassion get in the way of his violent occupation. Even though he is perfectly fine with killing, Roberto does have two exception to his targets, he won't kill families and he doesn't take jobs involving the shipping of drugs. His past still haunts him even though he tries to hide and that gives him a very low tolerance for those that remind him of the people he hated in his life. He is religious in the sense that he believes in God, but he also believes that God gave humanity the right to chose their own path whether it was one of sin or virtue.

For this reason Roberto does not allow his faith to get in the way of his work and only hopes that his sins may be forgiven at the end of his life, but he is willing accept any sort of divine judgement for his crimes. He believes that those with power should be able to use it to their benefit whether or not it is for the greater good. He hates judgmental people who preach about the greater good, humanity is made to be neither good or nor evil, it's all a matter of choice.

Roberto prefers to follow his own rules and codes, but will honor his employer's wishes if he can do it. But he will not hesitate to try and kill those who cross him or try to kill him, in his line of work one must be cruel to their enemies and traitors to stay alive in the business.

Background: Roberto Ochoa was born in the capitol city of Quito in Ecuador. Living in one of the slums meant that life was tough and thanks to the drug lords that plagued the city with crime. His parents both worked jobs as a cook and a maid. Roberto always had dreams of getting out of the slums and becoming successful. It was his dreams that kept him from succumbing to the ruinous lifestyle of the poor, but his life would take for the worse when his parents were murdered.

A gang shootout happened and it had started so quickly and unexpectedly that Roberto and his parents couldn't get to safety. He was small enough to avoid the hail of bullets, but his parents were not as lucky and were shot several times by stray bullets. They had put themselves between him and the gunfire and had died protecting him from death. The experience was dramatic and after the police came and took down the shooters, Roberto learned that the whole incident was over a claim of illegal drugs.

His parents had died all because of a few crates of cocaine and he was now alone. Roberto was placed in a foster home, but the mistress was a cruel woman who treated the foster kids poorly and he hated it. He hated that his life had gone to such a horrible place and he swore that he would not let this be the end. One day while he had made the mistake of attempting to steal some cookies, the mistress caught him and began to beat him. His anger at her and living in such an awful place made him use his powers for the first time ever.

He caused ropes to ensnare the mistress around the neck and then hanged her. Roberto then ran away before the authorities came. He had been thirteen at the time and it was the first time he had killed. After realizing the powers that he possessed Roberto became dedicated to mastering them and using them to his own benefits. He eventually took up mercenary work and became a world-class assassin and gun for hire. Taking a code name Roberto Ochoa became the infamous mercenary Slipknot. 

Other: he has an AK 47 assault rifle for when he wants another method of attack other than his ropes.
