Ripa 'Moramee

Looking for the The Arbiter rank or The Arbiter level? Looking for the last Arbiter of the Covenant?

"The Arbiter. A rank every Elite soldier will take with honor, but knows the task at hand will be his last. This Arbiter was forged in darkness, an evil and angry soldier he was imprisoned for crimes against the Covenant. In reality, he was a very effective soldier, but far too violent, even for the Covenant. This Arbiter has but one task, the annihilation of humanity from the galaxy, a task he is close to completing."

- Ensemble Description

The Unnamed Arbiter was the Covenant commander during the Second Battle of Harvest in 2531. His Lances were sent to the glassed planet Harvest to find an ancient relic, abandoned by the Forerunners.

He appears to be less sympathetic than the current Arbiter who served prior to and during the Great Schism, as he states that he does not care for the welfare of his fellow Sangheili, as long as the Prophets' demands and the mission requirements are met. He must have been killed sometime before 2552, as there can only be one Arbiter in the Covenant at one time. Although mentioned many times, the only Arbiter that has been seen onscreen was Thel Vandamee, making this Arbiter the first official one that been seen by people that isn't Thel Vandamee.
