Cecilia Vargas

Cecilia Marie Vargas was a senior specialist in the department until her death in 2016.

Early Life
Cecilia Vargas was a first-generation American of Hispanic descent, born in Las Vegas, Nevada in 1976 to loving parents.

They wholeheartedly supported her military goals, even if they sometimes worried about the number of times that Vargas wound up in trouble for hurting others. Vargas, however, was very convincing at claiming self-defense.

Military Service
After serving a four-year stint in the military and never advancing beyond the rank of Private 1st-Class, Vargas stumbled over the department's existence and immediately wanted to join up, feeling like it was a better use of her skills.

Then-Director Irvine decided to give her a chance, and was surprised when she survived ETKC-51.

It quickly became apparent that Vargas was erratic and possibly unstable. Despite initial concerns, it had nothing to do with ETKC-51 at all. Irvine made it a permanent part of Vargas's department record that she was never to be cleared for fieldwork.

Director Stroud decided that Vargas was useful, and rescinded the previous Director's orders.

Vargas was part of the 6 person team sent after Euan Ambrus in Vietnam after he went on the run from the department and execute Django Whetū along with his family.

Vargas was however killed along with the rest of the squad after they were hit by a powerful lightning strike, dismembered by a meat cleaver then incinerated.

Physical Description
"'.....a woman who is maybe twenty— slender, blonde-haired and wild-eyed, with the sort of build that is meant for speed, pin-point accuracy, and breaking things.'"

Personality and Traits
"'She smiles in a way that gives Rex the creeping chills. That is a woman who is bugshit insane, and he doesn’t think a second dose of the program’s miracle serum made her that way.'"
