Revision 5

Overview

Lorin is a 4-star Fulmen (Lightning) character with the Guardian attribute in Silver Palace. He is the Chief Inspector of the River ConstabularySilvernia's law enforcement organization. His title is "The Indispensable."

Appearance

Lorin has a prominent ragged scar running from his right cheek down to his neck and a mechanical arm, suggesting past injuries sustained in the line of duty.

Combat

Lorin fights with an electric boxing glove set to non-lethal voltage. His moveset includes electric-infused punches, including Shoryuken-style uppercuts, a flurry-of-punches skill, and AoE lightning attacks. As a Guardian-class character, he has enhanced durability compared to other party members.

Personality and Philosophy

The wiki describes him as "a dutiful yet weary nice guy." He is committed to building "a stable and sustainable system" of law enforcement rather than relying on individual acts of heroism. This sets him apart from more dramatic characters in the cast.

His quote: "Let's keep those brats in check, and then we'll get to have our vacation in peace."

Gameplay Role

Lorin's police position provides unique dialogue options during investigations. His Guardian class and lightning crowd control make him useful as a front-line tank who can lock down groups of enemies while the rest of the party deals damage.

Faction Context

Lorin leads the River Constabulary, Silvernia's official law enforcement. The Constabulary is one of several power centers competing for influence in the city, alongside corporate monopolies, royal affiliates, the MISS organization, and cultist groups (see Factions). Lorin's philosophy of building "a stable and sustainable system" sets the Constabulary apart from groups that rely on individual heroics; it also implies internal pressure from institutional limits and resource constraints.

Although the Detective works alongside the Constabulary on the cases of Chapter 1: Burnt to Cinders, the Detective is not a formal member. This independence lets the Detective pursue leads that the Constabulary cannot officially touch, while Lorin handles the legal-process side. The partnership is implied to be long-standing: Lorin's readiness to vouch for the Detective's return after a three-year absence suggests prior history together.

Combat Role

Lorin is a Guardian-class Fulmen (Lightning) character. In the four-slot party (see Character Switching), he plays the front-line tank: high durability, lightning-infused melee attacks, and area-of-effect crowd control to lock down groups while the rest of the party deals damage from safer angles. His enhanced stat profile comes from the Guardian archetype (see Character Classes).

His electric boxing glove is set to non-lethal voltage, consistent with the Constabulary's arrest-rather-than-execute mandate. The Shoryuken-style uppercut launcher and flurry-of-punches skill chain into Silverdrip Ambush windows on swap. AoE lightning is best deployed against grouped enemies; against single bosses, his role shifts toward sustained-damage absorption to let DPS allies free up rotations.

Story Role

As a senior Constabulary officer, Lorin opens dialogue routes that civilian characters cannot. During Investigation sequences he can press witnesses with official authority and can authorize evidence handling that the freelance Detective could not. His combat scarring and mechanical arm hint at violent prior cases; the wiki's framing of him as "dutiful yet weary" reads as a character who has seen enough to know that incremental institutional reform outlives individual victories.
