"I love you... in an appropriate way I mean. If I didn't, you would be dead, of course."

- Martin to Gerald Weston.

Martin Madrazo is a character in the Lock And Load series who appears as one of the three main protagonists inThe Cayo Perico Heist.

Background
The head of his own Mexican-American drug Cartel, Madrazo is a powerful and wealthy legitimate businessman settled in Cayo Perico with his wife, Patricia. During the events of the Cayo Perico Heist, he forcefully hires co-protagonist Gerald Weston following an incident that cost him millions of dollars.

At some point in his life, Madrazo became the head of the most ruthless Mexican narcotic gangs in the Cayo Perico area. Due to his status, he has been summoned to several court cases involving his gang activity, but has not yet been convicted as any witnesses willing to testify were silenced.

Madrazo married his wife Patricia in 1983, and had a son not long after that. However, Madrazo mistreats her.

Personality
Madrazo is often described as a psychopath because of his short temper and his ruthless methods of dealing with people who cross him in any way, shown when he has Gerald assassinate his cousin Javin Madrazo. Despite this, he shows gratitude to Gerald when he paid for the house and despite their rocky beginnings, Madrazo trusted Gerald enough to employ him. However, unlike typical rich psychopaths who would often prefer to maintain a positive image, he prefers instead to openly and constantly remind people around him of his psychopathic traits, and enjoys making people, even those closest to him, fear him. He is also appears to be misogynistic, as he mistreats his wife and has had several affairs with other women. Despite that, he was angry when his wife was kidnapped by Evan Clinton and wanted her returned to him.

Madrazo seems to respect people who respect him back, as seen in the Cayo Perico Heist, where he will be friendly towards his three friends, and co protagonists, Gerald Weston, and Juan Strickler and call them his friend if the job he gave was completed successfully.
