Biography[]
Raphael Rivera started his career in the Nicaraguan government from the Channel 13 news station. He was eventually elected President. Over time, he started a police state. One of his staffers, Alejandra Lopez, joined the rebellion against him.
Rivera had a bunch of thugs patrol the countryside, and they stockpiled weapons. Two rival drug gangs also joined together to supply Rivera's forces. Rivera also had Anka Jovanovic build him a WMD, the Modulated Neutron Initiator, in a secret lab.
Around the time of the Raven's Rock coup, the Ghosts, including a certain Ghost, were deployed to Nicaragua to aid the rebellion. They systematically took down Rivera's forces, eventually shutting down the weapons lab and capturing Jovanovic and Rivera's son.
The Ghosts eventually cornered Rivera in his mansion, protected only by his
Elite Guard. They killed everyone at the mansion, although pockets of resistance
still remained.
