Arbiter Sands
Overview
Arbiter Sands is one of the Arbiters of Arachnos. He seems to have learned something about the past events in Faultline, enough to convince Lord Recluse to put him in command of an Arachnos force to explore the zone. He knows that Faultine is hiding something far more powerful than ruined supergroup bases.
Arbiter Sands is, so far, the only Arbiter you may fight directly in the game.
Heroes may find Arbiter Sands:
- In the mission Keep Fusionette from getting killed from Jim Temblor. He is an Elite Boss with an Arachnos faction, and he will be an Ally.
- In the mission Recover info from AkashiKnight's office from Doc Delilah, as an enemy.
- In the mission Stop Arbiter Sands and get the PCM from Agent G, as an enemy.
- In the mission Destroy the PsichoCrhonoMetron! from Agent G, as an enemy
Background
Arbiter Sands is considered a somewhat unconventional member of the Arachnos Arbiter Corps. Though still completely dedicated to the will of Lord Recluse, Sands is known for using unusual and effective tactics. His status as an Arbiter makes him untouchable within Arachnos, for to harm an Arbiter is to attack the will of Lord Recluse himself...
Dialogues
From: Keep Fusionette from getting killed
Before combat:
Arbiter Sands: I am an Arbiter. Do you know what that means?
Scrounger Gunner: That you will take longer to convert?
Aberrant Rector: That your conversion is a greater boon?
(agroed)
Scrounger Gunner: Kill the Heretic!
Arbiter Sands: Hmmm. A Hero... This might be fortunate...
Aberrant Rector: Your time is over!
(once freed)
Arbiter Sands: Instead of fighting, perhaps we can help each other?
During the mission Recover info from AkashiKnight's office:
Before Combat: The answer we seek is somewhere on these premises. Keep looking.
Combat start: Hero, right? Are you surprised to see me?
At 75% Life: They did tell you I am an Arbiter, right?
Just wanted to be sure.
At 50% Life: Now, this is altogether unreasonable.
At 25% Life: You seem to lack a sense of self preservation. I'll note that.
Defeated I think I'm done here. You'll excuse me if I don't stay around.
During the mission Stop Arbiter Sands and get the PCM:
Combat start: Well, this is an unfortunate turn of events
At 75% Life: You've harmed me again. This won't do.
At 50% Life: You are beginning to vex me.
I say that to vey few people.
Most of whom are dead now.
At 25% Life: Normally, I'd teleport to safety now, but that's sadly not possible at the moment.
Defeated: Now this is absolutely bothersome.
