HISTORY:
    When Arsis was last heard from, he was at the center of the Elionite Crisis. He played a key role in Able Squad's defeat of the terrorist organization. Following the resolution of the conflict Arsis was granted honors by the Eltorian High Council and promoted to the Elite Guardsman Corps. Upon entering the Corps, Arsis received minimal genetic enhancement. This increased his already impressive strength and enhanced both his endurance and reflexes. He then spent the next twenty Earth years assigned as a bodyguard to High Councilor Zairum. This allowed Arsis to complete his term of service within the Guard.

    Due to his extensive exposure to Terran culture during and after the Elionite Crisis, Arsis found that he enjoyed the Sol system. So much so that following his honorable discharge from the Eltorian Guard, he decided to enlist in Exofleet. Given the recent push for diversification of the Terran military, Arsis's application was readily approved by the Extraterrestrial Diversification Program. His intent in joining Exofleet was two-fold, to earn currency (the only way he knew how) for financial stability within Sol and to better familiarize himself with its current socio-political climate.

    Arsis only knew a handful of Terrans. Thus it was a great surprise to be reunited with one immediately following his completion of basic training. Admiral Takagi, who had been Lt. Takagi the last time Arsis had seen him, was putting together an elite exosquad. Though no one had informed Arsis of the squad's name, he had a strong suspicion of what it might be. Considering his personal history, it is a bit ironic that Arsis's presence in Sol would again be associated with Able Squad.
