Lao is a minor character in Horizon Forbidden West.
History[]
With many of the crops spoiled by the Red Blight, Lao was one of a group of young hunters sent out to the Oldgrowth to hunt wild boars for meat. However, a routine hunt went awry when an Apex Clawstrider appeared, slaughtering three of the hunting group. To ensure his close friend Ven escaped, Lao lured the Clawstrider away, allowing Ven a chance to flee.[1]
Having managed only to slow the machine down using Adhesive Bombs, Lao found refuge in a mountain crevice. There, he was trapped not only by the Clawstrider, but also by Skydrifters. It was only with Aloy's intervention that he was able to return safely to Plainsong, giving her his Adhesive Blastsling as thanks.[2]
