Description
Pepe Ramos is a half Mexican, half-Filipino criminal residing in Los Santos. He is a founder and OG of Seaside, a former Soldado of the Vagos, and cousin of notorious criminal Benji Ramos.

Pepe is an aspiring rapper, a shooter, a helicopter pilot, and a grinder. He is was formerly signed with Wu Chang Records. He refers to himself as "Ramos Grinder #3" and does various jobs like chopping cars. Pepe has a confusing sense of humor and aggressively laughs at his own jokes.

Pepe Ramos of the Vagos
In 3.0, Pepe's first "appearance" was on a phone call to Benji Ramos on June 26, 2021. He mentioned in the call that he swam to Los Santos from Mexico and had just arrived so wanted to meet his cousin to catch up. Unfortunately, Benji was in an active situation and could not chatter, and the call ended shortly after.

Pepe was usually seen patrolling Jamestown with his Chino Custom when he woke up. He was also known to unwittingly bring heat to the Vagos and had caused a war or two, but he always backed it up by being one of their best shooters, helping wipe out the opposition during shoot-outs. He also liked to do impromptu raps at the Barrio whenever something came to mind.

The Exodus
On November 3, 2021, Pepe was informed by Benji that he had left the Vagos. This prompts Pepe to become hysterical, as he had joined the Vagos to follow Benji. He planned to follow Benji out due to his loyalty to him, but life in the Barrio was the only way he knew how to live and was worried that he might not be able to adjust out of the gangster life. On the same day, after expressing to the Vagos his position as Benji's cousin, he was blooded out by getting stabbed in the mountains. He was rushed to the hospital and was in critical condition for a while, but Benji brought in AZN girls to help him stabilize.

Seaside (Life after the Vagos)
Post-ICU, he has forgotten that he was in Vagos, although from collecting information during talks with the rest of Seaside he is aware that he used to be one. Currently, he is focusing on releasing music in order to launch his career as a rapper, has procured a helicopter license, and is looking for more opportunities to branch out of the Femly.

Interests and Trivia

 * Rap music
 * Girls of AZN (Asian) descent
 * Due to the influence of his "Mama", Pepe has made it his mission to "make his Mama proud" by only looking for mamacitas of Asian descent to date. He always asks women he meets if they are AZN and becomes disinterested if they're not.
 * Since he is both smooth and awkward towards women he is interested in, it is more likely he throws rather than scores.
 * It is important to note that the only non-AZN mamacita Pepe has shown a little bit of interest in is Linda Maridan, although that was back when Pepe couldn't find any AZN girls yet.


 * Cats
 * Pepe is a known cat lover. He likes to pet any he encounters on the streets.
 * When he was still in Vagos, he had some run-ins with former Ballas member "Kitty" Zoog. During each encounter, he has visibly shown a strong desire to pet Kitty.
 * Mining
 * Metal detecting
 * This is Pepe's favorite "Min-Maxing" activity.
