Aksor, Archon Priest has two main abilities consistent with other known Fallen Archons: Teleportation and an Ultra Smash. He often teleports between locations in order to get a clear shot at targets or disrupt a shooter's line of sight. He can cover a great distance with this ability. When combatants close within melee range, he employs a devastating area of effect stomp attack similar to [[House of Devils]] Archon, [[Riksis, Devil Archon|Riksis]]. He uses this attack fairly often as he normally attempts to corner Guardians into an area where they cannot run. For ranged combat, he uses a Shrapnel Launcher. He fires this weapon at an incredibly fast rate, comparable to the [[MIDA Multi-Tool]], allowing him to take down Guardians quickly so he can switch to his next target. | Aksor, Archon Priest has two main abilities consistent with other known Fallen Archons: Teleportation and an Ultra Smash.

*Aksor is presumably a member of the [[House of Wolves]] based on his lore, but his killcam shows no affiliation to any house (although his robes and color scheme suggest he is a member of the [[House of Kings]] and strangely around his cell there are numerous King banners instead of [[House of Winter|Winter]] ones). | *Aksor is presumably a member of the [[House of Wolves]] based on his lore, but his killcam shows no affiliation to any house (although his robes and color scheme suggest he is a member of the [[House of Kings]] and strangely around his cell there are numerous King banners instead of [[House of Winter|Winter]] ones). | ||
