Chief's most complex relationship is with the Arbiter; whom he lives with. Chief has stated on many occasions that he hates Arbiter and that he isn't friends with him. Saving the human race not once but twice, John is a decorated war veteran for his consistent courage and immense skill. The Master Chief stands about 7 feet 2. The reason that the Prophets gave the Covenant was that the Elites failed to protect one of the Hierarchs from being beaten to death by John in Halo 2. At some point during the third invasion of the Burning Legion, an unknown calamity struck the Arbiter , causing her to go dormant and cease directing souls to their just afterlives.
Instead, all souls now flow past her to hurtle directly into the Maw. Humanity might be the focus for the Halo series, but fans agree The Arbiter is a true brother in arms that they hope to see in Halo Infinite.
There are so many iconic characters loved by fans throughout the Halo series, but one character fans have wanted more focus on for a long time is the Arbiter.
He is very tall. He's 8' 2 while standard elites are feet. He's not the tallest Elite though. The Arbiter Thel Vadam is 7 foot 9. Did the arbiter die? The Arbiter continued to serve as the commander-in-chief of the Covenant military [7] and served as the guardian of the Great Journey.
Although the Arbiters were aware that their title was a death sentence, they would gladly carry out the Hierarchs' missions and anticipated a glorious death to regain lost honor. In the center of this room was a floating pod that contained the armor of the Arbiter when one was not currently appointed. This armor, while highly decorative, is fully functional as battle armor. Though considered a commanding role of high esteem, the Arbiter was condemned to a life of suicidal missions to regain his honor.
His status as Arbiter is likely the only reason the nearby Sangheili Honor Guardsmen did not kill him on the spot. While the honor of the title was restored after the dissolution of the Covenant, the function and role of the contemporary Arbiter are quite dissimilar from those of the judge-kings of ancient times.
When an Arbiter was chosen within the Covenant, he was usually a highly skilled Sangheili warrior who, through either chance or misdeed, had severely disgraced himself in his line of duty.
The rank of the Sangheili prior to becoming Arbiter presumably had no effect on the chance of becoming Arbiter, though higher-ranked Sangheili had better chances due to their more extensive experience and superior skill. The rank of Arbiter was considered a very prized reward, especially as it allowed the individual to die honorably rather than be shamefully executed. While there were many known cases of the mantle of the Arbiter being used to snuff out potential challengers to the Hierarchs' power over the Sangheili, [12] in other cases such as that of Ripa 'Moramee, brutish individuals with a high propensity for violence were chosen instead.
There were lines of succession for the title of Arbiter. They were appointed only by the Hierarchs of the Covenant. Each Arbiter receives a unique set of armor that is built according to an age-old design from before the Covenant. The very nature of the Arbiter means that they are sent on dangerous, often suicidal missions, where recovery of the corpse and the armor it wears may be impossible.
It is composed of a silvery-bronze colored metal with ornate engravings and metal work, indicating the Arbiter's ceremonial nature. However, it is fully functional as a combat suit, incorporating a heads-up display , an energy shielding system, and active camouflage. The armor incorporates a form-fitting bodysuit and blue restraining straps. Contrary to the claims of the Hierarchs, the Arbiters' armor is generally, if not always, replaced between wearers, as it is often irreparably damaged when an Arbiter is killed.
This was the case with Ripa 'Moramee , whose body was pushed several kilometers off the Apex Site and was subsequently destroyed by a supernova. The technology used in the armor is similar to the standard Sangheili combat harness , though it is of an older design and considered "not state-of-the-art". The armor may be subject to some small amount of customization.
Ripa 'Moramee was taller than most Sangheili, at over 8'1'', while Thel 'Vadam stands at 7'10''. Furthermore, when first donning the armor, 'Vadam lacked mandible guards or a shoulder-mounted light that he possessed after the Great Schism , where his active camouflage was also significantly upgraded.
As of , Arbiter Thel 'Vadam dons a ceremonial battledress that he believes serves as tribute to traditional armor style previously worn by the Arbiters, while also serving as a symbol of transition that represents his new-found role as a leader of his people and of a united Sanghelios.

His alleged death happens October 27, Now that date looks familiar. Halo 3 ends with a long series of events closing, one after another. Master Chief has become a icon of his console, one could call him the modern Sonic. Like any icon, he has a level of immortality the protagonist of most any other game does not.
Master Chief, originally named John, was born in and first lived with his family on the human colony planet Eridanus II. Prophet of Mercy. The title of Arbiter was meant for the pinnacle of the Sangheili, a master of the battle-field, who would lead all the clans. It became the highest possible honor bestowed upon a Covenant Sangheili by the Hierarchs during a time of great need. The next game after it, is Halo:ODST; I played a long time ago but I do recall that there was no presence whatsoever of the arbiter nor the elites, in fact all your enemies were Grunts, Jackals, Hunters or Brutes.
It is unknown who the leader of the Covenant that are fighting against the Elites are after the Prophet of Truth is killed by the arbiter in halo 3.
The arbiter is still Incharge of the Sanghelli.
