Biography
Amancio Malvado was a male Culebras who came to be one of the Nine Lords that once resided in the realm of Xibalba. Whilst there, they came to be enslaved by Amaru the queen of Xibalba.
Malvado was said to be responsible for capturing the Xibalban Itzpa by tricking her into the Twister. (Episode: La Llorona)
He later took Kisa to a temple in Mexico that was to be her prison and new home where she would be tasked with bringing in the lost, the criminal and the wanderers to be slaughtered. Lord Malvado told her that in this time she would no longer be known as Kisa but instead be called Santanico Pandemonium. For centuries afterwards, he operated as the collector of tribute of the Nine Lords. (Episode: Opening Night)
After Santanico's escape, Lord Malvado made his way to the temple where he was displeased at the actions of Narciso in allowing her to escape. He condemned Narciso and rips his face off for his failure. He tells him that the bar will be closed until they get Santánico back and the brothers are dead. He is then seen going to a room and commands The Regulator to awaken. He awakens and he tells him to bring Santánico back and kill the brothers. (Episode: Opening Night) He was told that Carlos made it out of the labyrinth by Narciso and he states they should ask him what he has learned. He shaves Carlos' beard and some of his hair, and tells him he should take care of it. He tells him he has been reeducated and what has he learned. Carlos does not answer and Amancio then grabs him by the throat and has his sharp finger knife next to his throat as well. He asks Carlos what the bonds mean and Carlos tells him about Dora the Explorer. He, Narciso and Scott all think he has gone crazy and Carlos proclaims he brought a person there who can figure out the bonds and that he is in the labyrinth. Amancio tells him to find that person and when he brings that person to him, he can have Narciso's job. When Narciso brings Aiden to him, he tells Amancio that the bonds are a map to a treasure, and that there is a Codex that can figure the rest out of the bonds out. Amancio appoints Aiden in finding the Codex and bring it to him, and Aiden then leaves, but Narciso reminds him the sun is out and Aiden gets an umbrella. (Episode: In a Dark Time) Amancio is seen in his office talking to someone on the phone and Carlos comes in to talk to him. When Carlos asks to go looking for Santánico again, Amancio brushes him off and tells him to go. Carlos asks for another job, but Amancio brushes him off yet again and when he speaks again, Amancio grabs him by the throat and throws him on the table and told him that the Twister was Santánico's temple and that he was no longer of use, letting Carlos go in the process. (Episode: The Best Little Horror House in Texas)
He was seen counting money and is talking to Sheriff McCorkle. McCorkle asks for a deal with cargo he delivered and Amancio walks behind and pats him on the shoulder, laughing with him. After laughing a little bit, he grabs McCorkle and starts cutting around his face, leaving McCorkle screaming. It is also revealed that Amancio's hideout is underneath a place called Jacknife Jed's. (Episode: Bondage) he and The Regulator arrive at Celestino's house and kills Tomas. Celestino greets them with sarcasm and he tells them that Freddie just left so he cannot find him. Celestino also reveals that Amancio was the one to put the visions in Freddie's head and why they are not stopping. Amancio walks around and sees Celestino's weapon he used for the sacrifices, and grabs it. He says that it is the key to the treasure and then attacks Celestino with it. He stabs him and then proceeds to pull his snake out, thus killing him and turns to ash, with Amancio putting his hand on his face. (Episode: Bizarre Tales) He met up with Seth to talk and he asks about Richie. Seth tells him that they split up and he says that he can give him what he wants, namely Santánico. Amancio tells Seth he killed his brother and that he has pure hatred for him and that he forgot about the bond, to which Seth calls him out about the bullshit he is saying. He says he wants money and he proceeds to have his associate come over to the table with a suitcase. Amancio opens it and it is Santánico's bloody shirt she wore when she fought The Regulator. He sniffs it and gets some blood on him, and he wipes it off. Seth tells him that he does not dig Santánico and that he wants them to leave him [Seth] and his girl, Sonja, alone after the deal is made. They shake hands and Amancio pulls him close, telling him that if it is a trick, he will make sure that he and Sonja will become a new pair of calzones.
