Ramon Vega

Ramon Vega is a teacher of math and physical education at Astoria Middle School in Astoria, Oregon. As an NPC, he is portrayed by Joseph Rose.

Appearance
While only 5'9", Ramon is still a very large man, and powerfully built. He has brown hair and brown eyes, and is clearly in excellent physical condition.

Personality
Ramon is intelligent, athletic, and friendly, though his outgoing demeanor and lack of understanding of physical space causes some people to become uncomfortable around him.

Background
Born in 2040 in Mexico City, he spent most of his childhood in Mexico before moving across the border to America. While he likes to talk about a great many things, his childhood is not one of them, though he does mention his father fairly frequently, and always with a tone of sadness and admiration. Though educated in California, he moved to Astoria four years ago, and a year later his background in education earned him a place as PE teacher at Astoria Middle School. The next year, when Elizabeth Mortimer left to pursue other career options, he took over the post of 6th grade math teacher as well.

George Cochran
For reasons he refuses to go into, Ramon doesn't seem to get along with Principal Cochran.

Robert Reed
Though Ramon is little more than a frequent patron of Cafe d'Arsene (mostly because of Police Chief Lee), he likes and respects Reed a great deal.
