Oscar Calraca



Oscar Calraca (often referred to as the Playboy) is a playable character in BioShock 2 Multiplayer available to those who have purchased the Sinclair Solutions Tester Pack downloadable content with Louie McGraff, which was released Thursday, March 11, 2010.

"Oscar Calraca is both a lover and a fighter. As a younger man, his business savvy, dedicated work ethic, and discriminating tastes earned him a fortune in cosmetics. Now, his concern are more sensual in nature, and his tastefully extravagant A-list parties make him a permanent fixture in Rapture's gossip pages."

Story


On the surface, Oscar had a collection of pussy cats that he took pride in. However, when Oscar was invited to Rapture, he was not allowed to take his cats along, which greatly angered him. One day, while throwing a party, Oscar meets Frank Fontaine, who offers to smuggle his contraband cats down to Rapture. At the same time, Fontaine introduces Oscar to ADAM and splicing. Oscar later grows addicted to ADAM and feeds it to one of his cats in an attempt to make it grow tiger stripes. This causes the cat to become addicted as well, and Oscar kills it for trying to steal his ADAM. He grows remorseful for this, though, and decides to splice himself a set of cat claws to "honor" the cat.

Trivia

 * It is unknown why Oscar Calraca's cats were prohibited, when plenty of dead cats and cat food can be found in Rapture. It is possible that he was using cats as slang term for women, such as prostitutes, (similar to how Silas Cobb referred to his Splicers as Kittens) but by the time of the third Audio Diary he was viewing them as actual cats.
