Arturo Mendez (callsign Amphisbaena) is a cadet in DDF Flight School and pilot number five in Skyward Flight.[1] He is the son of Valda Mendez and has a significant amount of practical flying experience prior to joining Flight School.[1] His callsign, Amphisbaena, comes from the mythological two headed, ant-eating serpent that goes by the same name. His flightmates have difficulty pronouncing his callsign, leading to it being shortened to Amphi.[Falta cita] During Flight School he spends a majority of his training in a Poco.[2] His parents are farmers on the surface on the planet, however, he is sent for schooling in the Lower Caverns.[Falta cita]
