The Arbiter, God of Fairness

Represents: Justice, fairness, and moral integrity
Worship: Judges and mediators invoke the Arbiter's name during trials. Temples serve as neutral ground for dispute resolution. Scales are a common symbol in worship.

Physical Appearance:

The Arbiter is portrayed as a figure of perfect balance - neither male nor female, young nor old. Their skin is a deep bronze, and their eyes are often depicted as silver scales. They wear a robe that is half black and half white, seamlessly blending at the center. In one hand, they hold the scales of justice, and in the other, a double-edged sword representing the two sides of every argument.  

Pleases:

  • Impartial judgment and fair rulings
  • Standing up for the rights of the marginalized
  • Seeking truth in all matters
  • Balancing mercy with justice
  • Upholding oaths and contracts

Displeases:

  • Corruption and bribery in legal matters
  • Prejudice and discrimination
  • Lying under oath or breaking contracts
  • Vigilantism or taking justice into one's own hands
  • Abuse of power or authority

Temple/Worship Site:

The Arbiter's temples are imposing structures of white marble and dark granite, symbolizing the balance between light and dark. The main hall is circular, with tiered seating surrounding a central dais where judgments are made. The ceiling is adorned with a massive fresco depicting various scenes of justice being served. Flanking the dais are two large statues: one of The Arbiter dispensing justice, the other offering mercy. The temple grounds include meditation gardens designed for reflection and a public square where minor disputes can be settled openly.
Simple Shrine:
A simple shrine to The Arbiter is a small, two-sided structure - one side white, one side black - with a set of scales placed at its center, often located in town squares or at crossroads.
