Gustavo Orta

Gustavo Orta is a high-ranking member of the Valentinos, and a relative of the gang's leader, Campo Orta.

Biography
Orta started out in the gang with Jackie Welles and they became friends. Years went by and Gustavo's ruthlessness helped him climb to the peak of the Valentinos' ranks. He used to be known for not showing any mercy to his rivals, and stomping them out of Heywood. Recently, though, his stony nature has taken a backseat and he has been behaving differently.

Gustavo first appears at Jackie's funeral to pay his respects along with a Valentino entourage, including his girlfriend Martha Young. V can make a toast with him and his posse in Jackie's name.

Sometime after, the source of his strange behavior was revealed to be that he was dating a 6th Street gang member by the name of Martha Frakes. Unfortunately, she was shot in the head when 6th Street gang members assaulted the couple, and was hospitalized. The girl's father, Nolan Frakes, blamed Gustavo as he believed he was responsible for her injury. For that reason, Nolan hired Padre to kill Gustavo.

V can take up the contract to take care of Orta. V an can either enter by force, stealth, or talking their way in. V has the option to kill him but he can also knock Gustavo out and put him in the trunk of the car of one of Padre's employees. However, if V peacefully snuck or talked their way in without any conflict, they can find Gustavo in his office, having the chance to talk. Orta thinks the assault was planned by Nolan to get rid of his daughter's boyfriend, but he didn't know Martha would be there. Gustavo considers himself and Nolan are at fault. V can then convince him to leave Night City, but he will refuse at first, stating that Martha is still his love and can't abandon her. V answers that if he stays he will probably die, and if Martha recovers, she won't have the chance to be with him. This finally convinces Gustavo to agree to leave the city. However, after leaving you'll get a call from Padre informing you Gustavo has killed himself, complimenting you while pondering how you convinced him to do it, the quest then completes with the same rewards as if you had killed him. You can then take the elevator back up and you'll find his body (lootable) sitting in the same chair he was in when you talked to him.
