He was described by Dan Houser as "this French kind of modern-day version of a flâneur who just knew how to exist".
Events of The Ballad of Gay Tony
When Arnaud and Luis Lopez first met, the two got along and after some conversation about France, America, and television near Star Junction. He asks Luis to take him to a massage spa for an appointment, which he agrees to.
The second time they met, Luis found Arnaud deep in Bohan after a night of Chinese opium laden bondage with some Brazilian prostitutes and was left on a street corner, beaten up, with his wallet stolen.
