Overview

The Arbiters are the highest ranking troops in Arachnos. They are linked directly to Lord Recluse, and any attempt to harm one is considered a challenge to Lord Recluse himself.

Arbiters are in charge of keeping things orderly for Lord Recluse, and oversee most everything that goes on within Arachnos. They are said to be above factionalism. That is, they never attack Destined Ones, nor each other. Arbiters are also capable of independant action and experimentation, several of Arachnos' technologies, such as the Power Mace, have spawned from the work of an Arbiter or a group of Arbiters, who are remarked to have scoffed at the simplistic name given to it. They have powers on par with Lord Recluse in terms of influence, able to order the death of anyone below them with but a word, and are one of the highest authorities the Arachnos organization has aside from Lord Recluse himself, even the Dark Lord's lieutenants are said to be at least somewhat subserviant to the Arbiter's wills if the need is called.

The basic Arbiter uniform is a white-on-white (in higher graphical settings, shiny-silver) version of the Wolf Spider Huntsman uniform with a turquoise cape that bears the Arachnos emblem, distinguishing them greatly from all other Arachnos personnel. Arbiters are usually referred to by name, perhaps symbolizing their importance.

Gameplay

Arbiters generally function as the Trainers for players in City of Villains. Some zones have more than one. In game other none-interactable Arbiters are seen guarding Forts, such as Fort Darwin in Mercy island, and being the 'welcoming comittee' to immigrants attempting to enter Grandville. Aside from Arbiters Sands, a renound radical Arbiter, no other Arbiter to date has been fought, or seen being fought, though another Arbiter has been killed by a group of renagade Arachnos, and the full might of Arachnos was brought down upon them.
