History
Earl Willie "Man Mountain" Carter was one of those who served in the Seventeenth Recon Regiment, also known as Camacho's Caballeros, and was one of those on active duty with the Caballeros in 3056 when they were employed by Chandrasekhar Kurita to provide security for one of his companies, Hachiman Taro Enterprises. Earl Willie was a Lieutenant Junior Grade and a Locust pilot within the Caballero's Adelante Company,[1] serving under both Captain Juan Pedro "Don Coyote" O'Rourke[2] and later under Captain John Amos "French Fry" Ames.[3]
Earl Willie had a passion for French cooking, and during a Caballeros contract on New Avalon had studied under a chef cordon bleu; after the Caballeros' contractended, Earl Willie spent a significant percentage of what he earned paying for a video correspondence course from the same chef. A large, bearded black man, Earl Willie unfortunately had a very similar apparance to the trademarked symbol of a popular interstellar chain of barbeque restaurants that had originated in the Southwestern worlds. Earl Willie loathed barbeque food, and considered it a tragic misfortune that his appearance bore such an astounding similarity to the restaurant chain logo, particularly as the chain had spread throughout the Free Worlds League and into the Federated Commonwealth.[1]
As a Caballero with an appearance that seemed particularly suited to intimidating the citizens of Hachiman, Lieutenant Cassie Suthorn employed Earl Willie and another Caballero, Lieutenant Junior Grade Billy "Cowboy" Payson in a staged attempted abduction at a party. The fake abduction was designed to elicit the help of Hachiman's planetary governor, Earl Percival Fillington, by making him believe that Cassie was being abused by Chandrasekhar Kurita, prompting Fillington to rescue her and take her to his estates. While playing the scared house guest, Cassie then planted recording devices that would be used by her employer. During the staged abduction, Cassie snatched a weapon from one of Fillington's guards and appeared to shoot Earl Willie three times, with him promptly collapsing, bedecked with bloodstains. The ploy was successful, although the combination of the squibs and bloodbags Earl Willie had worn under his shirt, combined with the impact of the bullets on his concealed ballistic-cloth vest, left him feeling rather sorry for himself.[1]
