Arthur Calhoun

Backstory
A convicted killer. Openly admitted to the crimes of murder. 4 cases of 2nd to 1st degree murder. 1 case being manslaughter and another for arson and tampering with evidence. It turns out that his case was aloof, during his later years he talks small about the case, but claims he did it all in self-defense and only tried burning the bodies in the first place because he was scared to go to prison.

Chill to the bone, but quite the shade, Arthur only care about 3 things; Zire, his axe, and himself.

During his transfer to a higher penalty prison, he was also sentence to death and was on death row. Taking advantage of the "Sacramento Slaughter" event, he used this to escape the Sacramento prison from the riots on the outside and inside. Seemingly headed towards the cold areas of Washington State alongside Neil Smith who didn't approve of Arthur's actions decided to head down to Oregon, he has been hiding here causing genocide and homicide. Now roaming the streets in Arklay County. He also set up a small bunker with advanced technology.

Personality
Arthur seems to stretch his limits beyond temptation. Careless roaming the streets in Arklay County, basically the death sentence does not scare him it seems. The Flash did not appear to change him from his past life from a convicted murderer. Now on the run from countless angry locals and vigilantes.

In his later days, he seems to have an interest in those who know his name well. Being a wanted man and not wanting to be known to the populous.

He does not seem to hurt children until very agitated to the point of mere madness. His perverted slang towards women is very introduced. (Mostly towards Zire Keylen.) Arthur does however get hit with a soft spot when anyone uses the term "Murderers" and seems to show signs of regret or doesn't bother to bring up his past life very often. The closest to personal talk he has had was with Zire Keylen, his love interest and later his wife.

Introduction
Arthur's first appearance can first be seen walking down the streets of the ruined town. Heading into the Justice Office. After finding a book to his liking, he is whacked in the head by a pistol. Not easily imitated to fall, Arthur sticks his axe in the side of the enemy and shoving them back. He made a leap for the stairs and rolled down them, quickly regaining himself and ran for the bathroom, realizing it was a dead end shortly after. He awaited his pursuer on the other side of the door. He blasted away at the man's legs, and finished him off, aware he wasn't alone, he warned his other friend he would kill him like his now deceased friend. Arthur then carried the dead man out into the streets in front of the justice hall and began to chop away his head. He soon meets a woman by the name of Zire Keylen. They, together, walk the roads of Arklay County.

Cults, The Blighted, and even other killers roam the county-side as the duo try to manage to stick together and survive.

MIRAGE
Arthur at the end of Overcast along with a pregnant Zire, ran away after the law enforcement and some detective agencies caught up with his tracks from the Sacramento Slaughter that took events before the events of The Flash and word was out he was on a murder spree. Between this time and the events of Overcast he lives the low-life away from civilization, he also seems to not weld his Axe anymore from the previous Era. He now lives with Zire Keylen and Ariana Calhoun who is his teenage daughter.

After the war ended in the valley with the USCPF and SLF, Arthur, Zire, and his daughter Ariana left the valley alongside civilians and government officials to live a better lifestyle out from under the ground.

 * They are also the first couple to have a blood-related child on-screen.

 * The orange ring around Arthur's neck is a texture oversight made by Boa as he forgot to fill in the right color for that spot, however VirusCG saw this as a golden chain and Boa has decided to keep it that way. (Until Mirage Arthur)
 * The moral we can learn from Arthur is that people can change their ways no matter how much harm they have done, though probably not forgiven.
