The Reaper was raised by a single mother, who was taken away during political raids by Western forces. Having grown up homeless on the streets of an eastern third world country on Earth, Gustavo has seen his share of brawls throughout his life. He had to fight, scrape and claw to find any food, money or shelter he attained. He was taken in by a group of dirty pirates, who taught them their ways of robbery and destruction. Gustavo was their pet project — seeing his raw talent and half-saiyan potential made them zero in on making him as tough and as ruthless as humanly possible. Needless to say, the plan worked and he ended up becoming the commander of the pirates.
Deep down all Gustavo ever truly wanted was to find his mother. He would even settle for finding his father in an attempt to being lead to his mother…but this part of his life was so far behind him that he’d long buried it under the thrills of war, burglary and conquest. His inner child seeks ultimate power, with the false idea that if he is strong enough to destroy his perceived oppressors, he can retrieve what he once lost.
Having never had the resources to attend schools, the further up in the ranks of the underworld he got, he made sure to indulge himself in plenty of books as to never be outsmarted or embarrassed by his enemies. Gus is no slouch, and his brute-like front facing personality should never be taken as a sign of unintelligence. He became so physically fit over the years through his escapades that he tends to lean towards using more ki based energetic techniques, as it offers him more of a challenge.
Much about Gustavo's history remains unknown, other than the urban legends and myths that carry along with the sound of his name. What he’s most known for is his proclivity towards hunting, being known as one of the most fearsome big game hunters across the entire Universe. This is one of the many ways that The Reaper makes his money. He continues to travel to different planets to find new creatures and settlements to pillage for his cohorts back on Earth.
