Arios

Arios (アリオス) was a Stray Otherworlder and a Mystic Angel in the service of Michael. He met his end at the hands of Vega.

Appearance
He was a man of small stature.

Personality
Betraying his size, Arios was a man with a big ego and was overly confident in his abilities. He held a strong grudge against Damrada for killing him and revived as a Deathman through that grudge, seeking greater strength.

Background
Some time after arriving to the Central World, Arios joined the Eastern Empire and entered the ranks of the Emperor's Imperial Guardians, distinguishing himself as rank 44 in the sequence. His specialty was in anti-personnel operations, with abilities suited for assassinations. Though part of the Emperor's army, Arios held no loyalty to him and conspired with the rebel forces led by Yuuki Kagurazaka to overthrow him.

He was killed by Damrada, with his corpse being used by Kagali to fuel the creation of new Deathmen. Reborn as an undead, Arios regained consciousness inside the Star Palace, taking in the power of a Seraphim, and becoming a Mystic Angel. He was forced to join Michael's army, participating in the invasion of the Kingdom of Ingrassia, where he ultimately met his end again after being betrayed by Vega.
