Cristóbal Carlos Colón y Cámarillo (c. 1330 – 22 April 1392) was a Creeperian admiral, maritime explorer, and administrator of the 14th century. He is most well-known for his command of three voyages across the Southern Ocean to land on, claim, and conquer the San Carlos Islands between 1381 and 1388. He was appointed as the Captain General (governor) of the islands by King Miguel II in 1387, formally claiming the islands for Creeperopolis.

Several land features, islands, cities, and stadiums are named after him, with the most notable being the city of Cámarillo, the largest and capital city of the San Carlos Islands. The currency of Creeperopolis, the Colón, is also named after him. He is considered to be the namesake of the most things in Creeperopolis of any non-religious or non-royal individual in Creeperian history.

Early life

Cristóbal Carlos Colón Cámarillo was born in Salvador, Salvador, Creeperopolis, around the year 1330. His father was Carlos Vicente Colón León, an officer in the navy, and his mother was Ana María Cámarillo Pérez. He was the second of five children.
