Hector Lee Caballero is a former soldier and the vigilante known as the Horseman.
Biography[edit]
Military Service[edit]
Hector Lee Caballero was born to a Hispanic family, and an unnamed mother of Irish heritage. At some point, he enlisted in the military, where he served on the frontline during the Great War of Separation. During this time, he became a member of an elite squad known as The Horsemen, quickly becoming proficient in both hand-to-hand combat and weapons handling. Whilst in the military, the rest of his squad died under unknown circumstances, leaving him as the sole survivor.[1]
Family Tragedy[edit]
Following his service, Caballero returned home to Dresher to reunite with his family. However, tragedy soon struck as his brother-in-law was murdered, and his sister, Patty, was left in a wheelchair following an attempted carjacking. This left Caballero to take care of Patty and his unborn nephew, Danny. In an attempt to find those responsible, Caballero began operating as a vigilante. In so doing, he would attack street criminals and steal their illegally-gained money to care for his family, all while telling them that he was working on an assembly line at the Essex Plant. However, despite his best efforts, Caballero ultimately failed to identify those responsible for the carjacking, though he believes that it is possible that he may have found them without realizing.[1]
Attacked by Ninjas[edit]
Due to his activities as a vigilante, Caballero gained many enemies. On his one-hundred forty-seventh patrol, he was attacked by a group of ninjas whilst atop a moving train. Despite defeating them, he reasoned that someone he had previously encountered must have put out a hit on him, as these ninjas were not the typical class of criminals that he would face. He then returned home, where he told his family that they had to move to Florespark, Texas, as he had gotten a job as a foreman at Itsabu Motors. In reality, however, he was worried that he and his family may get hurt if they stayed in Dresher.[1]
