Arctosz Paleroche is an NPC in Arknights. He is one of the major characters of Break the Ice and The Rides to Lake Silberneherze.

Background

Arctosz is the current patriarch of the Paleroches, one of the three ruling families of Kjerag together with the Browntails and the Silverashes. Being an ardent conservative, he sees the Silverashes' attempt to industrialize the nation as a blasphemy to Kjeragandr, the national goddess. Following the ousting of the Silverashes from the Tri-Clan Council after a series of accidents and political schemes, the Paleroches had been controlling the Council for seven years until Enciodes' return from Victoria and his restoration of his family's status. While Arctosz acts leniently onto Enciodes after being benefited from trades from the Karlan Trade, he is still unhappy with him, believing that the industrialization will pollute the Snow Realm with Originium and the opening up of the nation will further drive economic and political imbalance. While appearing to be a rough person, Arctosz is a man of his word with a simple heart. He sees things in a simple way and does everything straightforward without twisting his mouth.

Arctosz is also the biological father of Operator Leto, being the fruit of his marriage with Ursine explorer Tatyana Larina. The two would meet each other during a cold winter twenty years ago, in the Terran year 1080, almost immediately falling in love. Arctosz managed to convince his father for the wedding arrangements, despite Kjerag's isolationism at the time. Meanwhile, Tatiana would give birth to Leto, who spent the first two years of her life in the Snow Realm. Things changed drastically after Kjerag entered a state of political uncertainty following Olafur Silverash's death in a train accident in 1082. Fearing that people would use Tatyana and Leto as scapegoats for being outsiders, Arctosz had no option but to leave them behind. Although he successfully reaffirmed the Paleroches' position, Arctosz still regrets his decision up to this day[1] Currently, he is planning to visit Rhodes Island in the future to discuss the application of alcohol for medical care.[2]
