Other info: The only oligarchy leader who has a history of having been jailed. Most members of House Delgado are meat-headed idiots that have no interest in taking over the title because they lack interest in the work involved. Because of this, Joaquin took over purely because no one else was interested even though he didn't have the best background.
Bio: As is common in House Delgado, Joaquin has been a bit of a brute for as long as he's been on the planet; some even say that he tried to bite the doctor that delivered him! He talks back, he's quick to throw punches and break things, and he has no problem with loudly telling everyone just what he thinks. With that, he's not a great liar. While it's beneficial in some cases that he makes his intentions so obvious, in others he's managed to make things worse without meaning to. But if someone wanted an ally that they didn't have to question loyalty with, Joaquin's the best you can ask for.
With his fiery nature, Joaquin has gotten into rough fights more than once and once got into a knife fight as a teenager with another noble from a different house. He won, sure, but he also ended up arrested because he pissed off the wrong people by doing that. That said, it wasn't like he was tossed into a dungeon. It'd be better to say that he was grounded for six months at House Silver and wasn't allowed to see anyone or do anything fun except study. He didn't seem to learn his lesson though, and he went right back to causing trouble afterwards.
Two years ago while on a trip to Ceriasus, Joaquin watched a dragon eat his father; who was the current head of the family. He's never been able to figure out if it was a pure accident or if the dragon was acting on the order of someone else.... Was it even possible to order a dragon to eat someone without even being there physically to make that order? He didn't know, and he had ran away from the scene so quickly that he couldn't investigate further.
He wasn't all that close with his father, but the sight had been horrible nonetheless. He's hated any sort of mythical creature ever since, but has always especially stayed clear of dragons. He firmly believes Ryulia was behind it all and has stated so, but Rutherford has chastised him against pressing the issue. The main reason that he took over the family was because he believed it was his best shot at finding out the truth so that he could avenge his father.
The main estate for House Delgado is in Helios, near House Grimm's.
