This is a baby chick, not a dragon. So what was it doing in the dragons’ cave?

Vasquez is a chick with Mexican cave background. She is a member of the Colonial Marines, a mercenary group consisting of Ochredrakes and chicks. While the male drakes usually consider the use of brute force as the shortest route between two points, the female chicks are more flexible and take a more tactical approach on to a problem. Their latest mission will take them to LV-426, a remote cave where the Weiland-Yutani clan is performing the dragoforming process. Communication with this cave has been lost for two weeks.

Her best friend in the Corps is a drake called Drake (how ironic). Evil tongues say Vasquez signed up because someone said "alien" and Vasquez thought they said "illegal alien", but those are just rumors. And although Vasquez has a boisterous attitude, she has never been mistaken for a man... just like Hudson.
