Character bio
Throba originally joined the force so that he could protect the innocent. However, the Chrome Kite invading Arkansas forced him to hide his true allegiance and intentions. Remaining soft on the Sneakernet Underground, he all the same had to at least pretend to be loyal to the regime. He knew retirement would lead to him being exposed. Therefore, Throba felt obligated to swallow his dignity and remain on the force. He ordered his police to always use the minimum of force on Frontliners - unless they did something he deemed "in turpitude." Secretly, he frequently offered Frontliners tips on how to avoid getting caught. He arrested only when was absolutely necessary to maintain his cover, as he had a soft spot for youths whose older loved ones were callously murdered by the regime.

Believing in the Twirlflame Trios' mission most of all, he took pains to ensure that they were never arrested under real names. With their aliases, he was able to have charges dismissed pretty quickly. He most of all wanted to avoid arresting Tabitha Pang, knowing full well that she'd never get a fair trial - if any at all! Simply for being Hea's daughter, the regime would salivate at the chance to make an attempt on her life, even if that meant risking open war with Maurice the Ferryman! Throba wasn't about to take that risk.

However, in order to smuggle Tabitha out of Arkonia when the time came, to get the Tug disabled and also bring the Sodality of Gerosha back in time to stop Bliksemhek's insane murderous rampage, Throba had to arrest Tabitha when she was under the alias of "Vanessa Chartreuse." Tabitha readily turned herself in, horrified to learn that spiteful hatred for her was Erica's single greatest motivation for her seemingly indiscriminate murderous rampage.

However, Bliksemhek attacked the station where Throba was taking Tabitha in, right before he was able to put her in a holding cell. Throba urged Tabitha to run, while he and his police made their final brave last stand against the monster that came to slaughter everyone in the building. She was just barely able to escape undetected by Bliksemhek, thus ensuring that Throba's sacrifice wasn't in vain.

Personality
elite thug class, at the expense of harming children! That he has to play both sides, like a completely corrupt cop, makes him sick to his stomach. Yet, he does what he believes he must.
