Living under the alias Arges within Olympus law enforcement, this individual was formerly known as Bernd in Europe. There, he collaborated with Briareos on espionage operations prior to major conflict.

His physical appearance features a prominent scar across his left cheek, an injury that permanently closed his left eye. His other features are well-defined, including fair hair, presenting a look reminiscent of certain cyberpunk character designs.

As an FBI operative in Olympus, an agency oriented toward human interests, tensions arise with entities favoring bioroid integration, such as ES.W.A.T. Arges maintains a professional perspective, viewing all law enforcement divisions as serving civic stability through different methodologies.

Within *Appleseed: Ex Machina*, his role evolves: he serves directly under Yoshino, an emissary for the Poseidon conglomerate. Acting as both protector and aide to Yoshino, he demonstrates respect for the combat skills of ES.W.A.T. operatives Deunan Knute and Briareos Hecatonchires, though he typically observes rather than leads operations.

The character is derivative of the manga figure Arugess, sharing a conceptual origin but diverging significantly in narrative function within the film. His duties focus on providing protective and logistical support for Yoshino during Olympus diplomatic engagements, particularly negotiations and incidents involving Poseidon technology and terrorist activities.

His participation centers on supporting Yoshino's objectives and maintaining security protocols during the film's central conflicts involving global satellite networks and neural manipulation via consumer technology. His established background encompasses only his operational role in *Ex Machina* and his pre-Olympus history.
