Involvement

Borderlands 3

Before Maliwan began his attack on Promethea, Lor was working at a coffee shop that was occasionally visited by Rhys, the CEO of the Atlas. Once the attack began, Lor quickly found himself caught up in the conflict and joined Atlas in trying to fight off both Maliwan forces and members of the Children of the Vault.

Eventually, he meets up with several Vault Hunters sent by Lilith and the Crimson Raiders. Working together, they are able to establish a foothold and drive off the Maliwan troops; securing Watershed Base, Lore contacts Rhys and convinces him the Vault Hunters can help stop Katagawa Jr. and Maliwan's attempts at destroying Atlas.

New Tales from the Borderlands

One year after the events of Borderlands 3, Lor has transitioned, going by the name "Lor" and using he/him pronouns[1], and has started a coffee shop so good that Fran is willing to accept drinks from it in lieu of cash.

Lor survives the events of New Tales, and appears in the game's best ending as an employee of the player characters' new corporate consulting business.
