Well, the turnout was bigger then we ever expected. Staten Island and its citizens have proven that this experiment was necessary. Now we will of course study the results, but I've received word from president Bracken that we're considering a nationwide purge, as the people are now calling it, as early as next year. One where every U.S. citizen can participate.
~ Sabian, revealing that the Purge will now become a nationwide event annually thanks to his actions.

Arlo Sabian is the main antagonist of The First Purge and one of the three overarching antagonists for the rest of the series (alongside Dr. May Updale and Caleb Warrens). He is a member of the NFFA that seems well intentioned at first, but it's later revealed that Sabian is a power-hungry and psychopathic human being that hired terrorist groups to kill innocent people during the Staten Island experiment with the Purge in order to raise the death toll and make the Purge seem more useful then it really is, making him responsible for the Purge being as bad as it is for 23 years due to nation wide purges being allowed thanks to Sabian's rigging.

He was portrayed by Patch Darragh.

Biography[]

Arlo Sabian is the Chief of Staff of the New Founding Fathers of America, after turmoil in the government in the twenty-first century has led to their uprising.

Contrary to Dr. May Updale, who had conceived the idea, Sabian hopes that the experimental Purge in Staten Island would become a success, so to incite more Purges in the following years.

When the first Purge ( initially dubbed "The Experiment") starts off with the denizens of Staten Island commit minor crimes such as vandalism and theft as well as throwing block parties, Sabian becomes disappointed. Through corrupt means, Sabian rigs the statistics of the Purge by sending in international mercenaries and extremist hate groups disguised as masked Purgers to make it look like the Purge works through mass chaos.

When Updale discovers this deception, he immediately justifies his actions as the NFFA wants the Purge to exist in order to maintain a kind of balance by sacrificing low income peoples (including minorities). Sabina then proudly has Updale removed and taken to the streets of Staten Island. In order to cover up his tracks, he has Updale executed and all video evidence of the false Purgers point of entry deleted.

At the end of the Purge, the militant intervention has affected the Purge statistics well enough for the NFFA to make the event a nationwide annual tradition for the coming years.

He never makes any appearance in the later instalments of the franchise; it is unknown what happened to him though it is possible he may have retired from his position, or he lost his position when incumbent President Bracken lost the presidential elections (presumably as Bracken makes no other appearances in the franchise and Warrens is revealed to be the incumbent President during the later instalments of the franchise.)

His legacy comes to an end when the Purge is permanently removed after the Ever After Purge phenomenon plunges the whole country into chaos, making Arlo's ambition for the US becomes nothing but a fool's dream. It's a possibility that Sabian may have been killed in the chaos of the Ever After Purge or has gone into hiding in shame from what he and the NFFA have wrought.

Personality[]

On the surface and the public eye, Arlo Sabian is a confident and charismatic statesman for the NFFA. He works side by side with his co-creator May Updale as the Experiment on Staten Island takes place. However, footage from built-in camera contact lens of those participants in the initial Purge both shock and displease Sabian. Eventually, Sabian's true colors come to light after Updale discovers the truth about the rise in murders during the Purge Experiment: that Sabian commissioned mercenaries and racist factions to enter the island dressed as Purge participants to depopulate the lower class of citizens and immigrants in the country. This Sabian justifies as a necessity as the NFFA inherited the social inequality following the economic collapse. It's also implied that Sabian is racist himself as he shows gleeful callousness for whatever ethnic groups get victimized for his, and by extension, the NFFA's plans to succeed.
