Arch-Arbitrar (Arc Are-bit-rare)
The Arch-Arbitrar is a role that is held by one person at a time. This person is the king's most trusted advisor and protector. They are a magical person who can see both into the past and the future, as well as into the present.
There have been several instances where an Arch-Arbitrar has prevented an assassination attempt against the king or queen or one of his nobles by seeing the future. They have predicted natural disasters and events that could cause wars.
They have seen into the past and seen how kings of old ruled, the events that could be causing problems now, such as heavy lumbering.
In the present they have seen things far away, a gate guard being murdered, located the queen who had become lost in the woods, and found dens of ogres who had been terrorizing the people.
Arbitrars foresee their death or inevitable capture and will call for the person who will be the next arbitrar. Once that person arrives they will be gifted the powers of the Arch-Arbitrar and will swear a heart-oath to the monarchy.
Arch-Arbitrars families will come with them to the court where they will be moved into the Arbitrar's Mansion and any of the property they wish to have brought from their old home of homes will be brought. Family members of the Arch-Arbitrar will be greatly respected but will have no power based on the Arbitrar. If they hold another rank or role in court they may keep that position and its powers.
The Arbitar's names are kept a secret so no magic can be cast against them from a distance.
