Throughout From Dusk Till Dawn: The Series[]

Season Three[]

In Rio Sangre, he goes to confront Seth and Carlos at the front of the prison, mocking them both in the process. After letting them go and Carlos exposes the team to Venganza, Machado relishes in his taunting of Seth, Richie and Santanico until Tatuaje makes his presence known.

In Matanzas, he and his team help out the Geckos with trying to stop Amaru from completing her ritual. He gets shot through the heart by the zombie gunslinger, but before he immolates, he hands his gun to Seth and says "whoops".

Physical Appearance[]

He had a tall stature with an athletic build. He was bald with a dark beard and mustache. He had green eyes and wore glasses.

Personality[]

He took his role as the "jefe" of the Rio Sangre Prison seriously and showed a sexist attitude when Santanico was in the prisoner hall, wondering if she could a dance of hers. He had a somewhat friendly and calm composure, and was willing to step into the fight to stop Amaru. When his associates were killed by the zombie gunslingers, he showed anger and bluntly confronted them, but this led to his end.

Powers and Abilities[]

  • Immortality- Culebras do not age or decay and are immune to death by disease or sickness.
  • Accelerated Healing- Culebras heal from physical wounds much faster than humans. In addition, chronic illnesses, such as poor vision, are immediately corrected. For example, Richie was shot in the hand and had a large hole that caused him immense pain if too much pressure was applied to it. Upon transformation, the large wound healed rapidly and his vision was heightened, no longer requiring him to wear glasses.
  • Superhuman Strength- Machado has more strength than a regular human.
  • Shapeshifting- Machado can shape-shift into a reptilian form that is far stronger and more feral than their human form. It causes them to mentally degenerate into mindless animals that can be killed easier as they are not as smart in a fight and are more blood crazed, though when partially transformed, they are simply more aggressive and can speak, while other are more like hungry zombies and even hunt in hoards or packs. They either have flaked or scaly skin with sometimes hardened scales and horns.

Weaknesses[]

  • Sunlight- Culebras are vulnerable to the sunlight and will die of exposure to it.
  • Staked- Culebras are vulnerable to stakes to the heart, as it will usually kill them.
  • Extraction- Machado is vulnerable to heart extraction.
  • Decapitation- Culebras are vulnerable to decapitation, but like snakes, they have been shown to still have movement.
