Biography
Armando, and his constant companion Henrique Bardas, are two of Luis' oldest friends. The trio are said to have grown up together, gone to school together, and got in a lot of trouble together. While Luis has left Northwood for the success he found working with Anthony "Gay Tony" Prince, Armando and Henrique have remained in the barrio where they are still often found hustling on the streets of Northwood. With Luis not around as often, the trio has become a duo in which Armando fills the role of brains to Henrique's muscle. Although Armando can be seen to be slightly resentful of Luis' decision to focus more on his newly found success in Downtown, he is still very loyal to his old friend, providing him with access to a weapons van as well as backup on certain missions. With the help of Luis, 'Rique and Armando start a drug empire which they build up by ambushing drug convoys, stealing stashes and raiding deals.
Trivia
- Despite the shared surname, there is no suggestion that Armando is in any way related to Elizabeta Torres. It is unlikely that they are related, because Elizabeta is Puerto Rican, and it is implied that Armando is of Dominican decent.
