- "Voridus, listen. You fail him one more time trying to prove yourself and I will not be able to save you. And it will be both our skulls beneath his mace."
- — Pavium to Voridus.[1]
Pavium, nicknamed the Unbreakable, is a Jiralhanae Warlord within the Banished who fought against the Flood during the Second Ark Conflict.[2][3]
Biography
Warlord Pavium is an architect and siegemaster, making and unmaking fortifications at Atriox’s command. Given the epithet “The Unbreakable” for his implacable discipline and prowess in combat engineering, Pavium’s skill is unimpeachable, but conflicting ties of loyalty to his clan and brother Voridus had slowed advancement in the Banished. Eager to prove his worth, Pavium redoubled the efforts of his pack since their setback on Installation 09. His efforts have not gone without notice, and Atriox tasked Pavium and his brother with a mission to salvage starships near the remains of High Charity to judge their worthiness as members of the warmaster’s inner circle.[1][3]
