Commander Arra'kon is a T'au Commander and skilled T'au Battlesuit pilot and a member of The Eight, Farsight's elite honour guard.[1] He was also the chief military leader of the Farsight Enclaves for a time.[2a]

History

Born and trained on Vior'los and physically imposing for his species, Commander Arra'kon has lived far beyond the natural lifespan of a Tau thanks to medical enhancements and frequent cryostasis.[2a] Arra'kon was overall military commander of the Farsight Enclaves at the time of Farsight's return from the desert during the Enclaves' battle against Grog Ironteef. He possesses an analytical mind and an advanced new support system from the recently arrived Vision of Aun'shi, helping him to make the most of his extensive anti-infantry weaponry mounted on his Battlesuit.[1] Following Farsight's self-imposed exile, Arra'kon became the new military leader of the Enclaves.[2a]

During the invasion of the Farsight Enclaves by Hive Fleet Gorgon, Arra'kon stepped down as supreme commander of the Enclaves in favour of the now-returned Farsight.[2b]

Wargear

Arra'kon goes into battle in a modified XV8-05 Crisis 'Enforcer' Battlesuit geared towards anti-infantry engagements. It is equipped with a Plasma Rifle, Cyclic Ion Blaster, Airbursting Fragmentation Projector, two Gun Drones, Counterfire Defence System, and a Repulsor Impact Field.[1]
