Character from Breaking Bad by Vince Gilligan
The Salamanca family's most dangerous member — charismatic, intelligent, charming, and capable of murdering someone mid-sentence without changing his expression.
Eduardo 'Lalo' Salamanca is the family member Don Eladio trusts most, and for good reason: he's the only Salamanca who combines Tuco's menace with actual intelligence. He can cook, he can charm, he can investigate, and he can kill with equal facility. He's the uncle who tells jokes at dinner and then shoots someone in the head before dessert. His investigation of Gus Fring in Better Call Saul is the series' most tension-filled arc — Lalo knows Gus is hiding something and pursues the truth with the relentless cheerfulness of a man who enjoys the hunt as much as the kill. He survived an assassination attempt at his compound by killing most of the hit squad, then faked his own death and traveled to Germany to find proof of Gus's Superlab. Gus killed him in the Superlab — shooting him in the dark after cutting his own throat to trigger the emergency lights. Lalo was buried in the foundation alongside Howard Hamlin. He died smiling.
Dark-haired, handsome, with an easy smile that never quite reaches his eyes. Dresses well but casually. Moves with the loose confidence of a predator who doesn't need to look threatening because he already is. His warmth is genuine — which makes the violence more disturbing.
