personailty: Miguel is, in a word, enthusiastic. So enthusiastic that he doesn't usually think things through until he's to the point where he's wishing he'd thought things through...and by then it's too late. Someone smart once told him (actually, two or three times) that he seems to be lacking the little voice in his head that stops other people from talking themselves into really inconvenient corners.

What Miguel lacks in common sense, though, he makes up for in loyalty. He is true to his friends, and when he says he's going to do something, he either does it or fails epically in the attempt (there is a rather uneven ratio in favor of the latter). Of course, if you're not his friend, you're probably a target, because if there's one thing Miguel is experienced at, it's conning people. He's not the brains of the outfit, but he certainly has a little experience going for him.
appearance: Miguel has blonde hair that is perpetually in various states of disarray. It doesn't even matter if he cuts it or not, it'll wind up messy anyway. He wears what he feels like wearing, or whatever he can get away with wearing and still convince people that he's a polite young god man who wants only the best for the people around him. In spite of the fact that he fails at numerous things, he has a swagger that would make people think he considers himself the best thing since...well, since things were invented. He pulls off cocky and confident very well, even when he isn't feeling it, and can convince you that you believe things he doesn't even think are true.

In addition to all of that, Miguel has some faces he uses when he's not getting his way. There's a puppydog face, a ridiculous scowl that only looks half human, and a sulk that would make a toddler ashamed. He uses these, frequently, when things go wrong or he's inconvenienced.
history: Miguel and Tulio were partners right from the start, conning people out of their life's earnings in games of dice (which were loaded). This continued until, through a series of dizzying events, they found themselves stowed away on a ship, in possession of a map to the legendary city of El Dorado. After a rather exhausting journey via rowboat, Miguel and Tulio eventually did locate the city, and in spite of some initial fears that they would be cooked and eaten or offered as sacrifices, they were suddenly treated as gods.

Using their newly-assumed godhood to pull off their greatest con of all, Miguel and Tulio almost managed to escape with more gold than they'd ever dreamed of...almost. Unfortunately, conscience and that kind of pesky thing (also self-preservation) got in the way, and they wound up escaping with their lives and a tagalong, Chel...who was hot, but got in the way of the whole "just the two of us, partners in crime" thing.

That was all before they came to school. Since then, there was the whole sleeping beauty thing Tulio pulled at that tournament shindig (Miguel is still trying to forget the outcome of that one), and over the course of the next few years/months/etc, Miguel became increasingly convinced that Tulio was basically in a massive state of denial over his feelings for Chel. She was almost engaged to some guy, and it was pretty clear Tulio had a stick up his..well, wasn't happy about it. Before Miguel could do anything too drastic, though, Chel and the guy were broken up, and the three of them had a great big happy con-person reunion.

It didn't last long, though, because then Chel up and left, and Miguel, assuming that Tulio was still hung up over her, decided that the only way to help his best friend fulfill dreams he wouldn't admit he had was to track her down and bring her back. He left a note for Tulio (because the battery in his phone was dead) but he left it on the windowsill in his dorm room under a pretty small rock, and it's distinctly possible that it blew away. Oh, and it rained that night, so...

Somebody did tell Tulio where he went, right?

Because...he's back now, and he really tried his hardest, but he couldn't find Chel.
other: Your dreams will never come true, you will be conned by a conman and all your gold will be stolen or wind up at the bottom of the underworld.
