Dos Santos

Dos Santos (ドス・サントス) is a primary antagonist featured in the light novel rey infinito.

He is a human trafficker and the closest confidant of Fernando Alhorn. Wielding his Stand, La Casa Verde, Dos Santos can rapidly grow underground to manipulate trees.

Appearance
Dos Santos is a giant, sturdily-built man with rock-like features and a moss-like stubble. He is compared to looking like a steel statue. He has dark, sunken eyes, faintly-connected eyebrows, and a sharp jaw. Santos's hair is dark, frizzy, and puffy, with a slightly receding hairline.

Personality
Dos Santos is a stern man who loyally follows Alhorn, even after his boss murders his entire family. Although he cut ties with his family prior, he still feels confusion, resentment, grief, and guilt upon seeing their corpses. He acts cautiously around Alhorn, careful not to upset him. Santos is also quiet unless he has a good reason to speak.

His eyes have a penetrating glare when his sight is set on someone, and he is calm enough to be compared to a towering ice shelf looking down at his enemies even when their gang's fortress is set on fire by Octavio.

Stand
La Casa Verde can grow underground at an abnormal rate, allowing Santos to control all of the roots, plants, and trees that they are connected to. He can essentially grow an entire forest in a matter of seconds and manipulate the plants of the forest to move as he pleases.

Background
Dos Santos was born in in Lima, Peru. He lived in a middle class residential area and had happy memories he shared with his parents and older sister, but was later completely estranged from them for unknown reasons. At some point, he joined Fernando Alhorn's gang and became his closest aide, also awakening his Stand. Both Alhorn and Dos Santos are included in the list.

In 1974, he fought Sasha Loggins and Gustave Shaulo Messina after they infiltrated the gang's base. He captured them and tied them up using his Stand.

rey infinito
Dos Santos heads to his family home to pick up Alhorn, who was visiting there. However, he sees the corpses of his parents in the living room when he arrives. While feeling troubled, he goes to the bedroom and tells Alhorn that he should return home soon. However, Alhorn tells Santos to relax and have some drinks. Consequently, they end up staying in the house for three more days while drinking. Santos asks his boss to put his clothes on since it's not his house. Instead, Alhorn then asks Santos what the essence of war and murder is, before explaining that they are asymmetrical because they never have equal actions and results. Santos tells Alhorn that there are people waiting for him in their cells, so he finally decides that they should leave and tells Santos to grab the Bow and Arrow. Santos had been avoiding looking to the left of the bed the whole time, where the dead bodies of his pregnant older sister and her husband were laying. He hesitantly pulls the Arrow out from his brother-in-law, trying to stop himself from shaking.

As they head to the living room, Santos laments the death of his family despite cutting ties with them years ago. Alhorn asks Santos what he expected when they decided they would come to his home. He decided to shoot them with the Arrow to see if they would awaken powers like Santos had. As they leave the house, they are immediately surrounded by Santa Rosa police officers, who points their guns and have armored cars behind them. Alhorn suspects that Dos Santos set him up, but Santos denies the accusation. Alhorn then orders Santos to wipe out the police officers using his powers.

Later, he confronts Sasha, Octavio Luna Kan, and Joaquín Ruiz-Jorruda when he finds that their base is on fire. He is surprised to see that Sasha survived from the Arrow. The four of them battle and he almost kills Sasha before she awakens her powers. While Octavio has Dos Santos held in a chokehold, Sasha uses her birds to give one end of her braided cord to Lisa Lisa, while another bird ties the cord around Octavio's arm. Sasha and Lisa Lisa then pour the Ripple into Sasha's braided cord. The Ripple passes through Octavio, using him as a medium, and reaches Dos Santos. His jaw lifts and his body bends backward, finally incapacitating him.
