Biography

Early life

RaulPassosIDcard — Passos' ID card, revealing his date of birth.

Passos was born on April 27th 1973, in Colombia, though he claims that he is from Brazil.

Passos was paid by Victor Branco, the brother of Passos' boss Rodrigo, to find and hire Max Payne, as a part of Victor's plan.

Recruiting Payne

Sometime later, Passos travels to New Jersey and recruits Max Payne to work as a private security sector for Rodrigo Branco and his family in São Paulo. Passos enters to Walton's bar, where he sees the mob boss' son Tony DeMarco and his thugs threaten Max. Passos draws a .38 Revolver and tells the thugs to leave the bar. Tony, however, promises that he'll return. At the bar, Passos tries to pick up Max for the job, but the ex-detective refuses. After telling Max a part of his time at the NYPD, the two begin to drink along with another woman. A while later, Tony returns and threaten Passos and Max. Tony begins to argue with the woman, and hits her, but is shot dead by Max. He and Passos then fight the large army of mobsters, managing to escape to Max Payne's apartment building. At the building, the two are soon attacked by Anthony DeMarco and his mafia, but managing to escape once again, to the Golgotha Cemetery.

At the cemetery, DeMarco's goons attack the two, who are captured by DeMarco. Passos taunts the angry mob boss, who hits him with a shovel, and tells them to dig their own graves. Max is able to defeat the thugs, and Passos escapes with him. After escaping the cemetery, Passos and Max begin to work for the Branco family.

Early works with Payne

A few weeks later, Passos and Max begin to work for the Branco family, starting their work in Aruba. The second job Passos has had with Payne was in Panama. During a short vacation in Panama on a boat, along with Max and Marcelo, Passos gets another order from Victor; to deliver a bag full of unknown material. During the delivery, the boat is attacked by a group of 'pirates', called the AUP. After Max escapes from the boat, Passos helps him to kill the remaining pirates, finding all the other passengers dead, much to Passos' shock.

Time in Brazil

Soon, the Comando Sombra attempts to kidnap Fabiana at a charity event. However, Max arrives in time to save both her and her husband. Days later however, the Comando Sombra shows up again, only this time at the Club Moderno, and this time they came prepared. Passos and Max save Giovanna, but Fabiana is kidnapped.

Passos and Max then set to rescue her and during this time, Passos provides Max weapons and information. At one point, he helps Max during a massive gunfight in a soccer stadium.

When Max saves Giovanna from Comando Sombra for the second time, he finds out that she is pregnant with Passos' child. After Max destroys Crachá Preto, and Passos kills Neves, Passos and Giovanna leave São Paulo to raise their child.

Personality:

"As I said.. Passos always has a good sense of humor"

―Max Payne

Passos shares Max's "John Wayne" wit, over most situations, and is very openly sarcastic, even during gun battle. He openly lies to Max about most things, and tricked him into working for Rodrigo. But in the end, Passos does show that he cares for Max, by saving him from Álvaro Neves.

Notes

The 55 Unidade de Forças Especiais' intel regarding Passos declares him as wanted for terrorism, assassination, and the laundering of money.
- His alleged actions of terrorism and assassination may stem from in-game events, such as the attacking of Crachá Preto and the death of Rodrigo Branco. The accusation of money laundering may be from his vague actions with Marcelo during the Panama incident.
