Cool, thanks. The Ute are probably great for legendry, and, who knows, he could have had a great-grandmother for Welsh folklore.
Far from the sea, I got. Far from mountains as well?

Jean-Michel Alexandre, Kessler's valet, chief steward, bodyguard and right hand man, is from a rich and well-connected family in Port-au-Prince and was a fiery young college student in the Tonton Macoute, before losing faith in 'Baby Doc' Duvalier and searching for a way to escape life on Haiti by joining the French Foreign Legion, as his disreputable uncle once did.
ISHIM Ltd., Kessler's St. Lucia-registered Private Security Contractor company, employs a number of former policemen, soldiers and sailors from Caribbean islands. Anyone who stands out in talent, courage and willpower, not to mention loyalty and character, might receive a chance to serve as security on the
Penemue. Awesome abilities, exceptional willpower and/or having survived terrible paranormal experiences and coming out stronger might mean assignment as an active hunter.

The exact roles and history of these organizations are disputed even today, thought the black clothes police are still around (I think). He would have either been directly recruited by the monster hunters in Guyana or he was able to emigrate to the US to find higher paying work. And possibly to get out of a fairly small country (population-wise).

Awesome!
I had no idea about Gyuana's colourful criminal history. I'll use him.
