Asks or posts where people asking about showing affection towards arbitrators or have relations with arbitrators. Please note that the arbitrator running this blog (as well as the mod portraying said arbitrator) identifies as grey-asexual and is usually uncomfortable being flirted with. Questions about arbitrators in general are allowed though.
More tags will be added to this list as they are made.
OOC: This blog is not officially associated with Games Workshop or Fatshark. I’m just a guy who really likes the Arbites and plays a shit ton of Darktide.
I do my best to be lore accurate when I can, but there is unfortunately not a lot of reliable information about the Arbites, especially since some of their lore has changed over the years. What I say may not be canon, some of my information may be inaccurate, but I do my best.
Also… apparently a bunch of people on this app (or one really determined person) really want to fuck and/or marry an arbitrator, so… yeah. Just a warning.
Also also, I use he/him pronouns, and identify as grey-asexual.
Because apparently people thought that this wasn't obvious enough I AM UNCOMFORTABLE BEING FLIRTED WITH ON THIS BLOG.
If you have been interacting with the blog for a while in a way that has resulted in you frequently getting "sanctioned" (the whole "MANDATED EDICT" thing) and would like to end up on the High Priority Warrant board, contact my main blog and we can discuss details regarding said warrant, the wanted poster, and anything else that you may want. Not everyone can get a poster, so please be understanding.

Thoughts on the Adeptus Mechanicus letting the Skitarii help, on the fight for Tertium?
Thank you for your inquiry.
The Adeptus Mechanicus have already been fighting on Atoma Prime, but mostly not partaking in Inquisitorial missions alongside the rejects. The difference, however, is the choice to divert Alpha Primus Skitarii to fight alongside the rejects, Conclave, and Arbitrators.
While the aid is needed and will most likely increase the speed at which an end is brought to this conflict and the tithe is restored, there is still concerns regarding the introduction of yet another faction into the warband that differs greatly in its ideology and tactics. While the presence of the troops themselves will most likely help the conflict, the potential for debates and disagreements amongst leadership about what should be done and how it should be done may actually harm the momentum that the warband has gained so far.
it is not a violation of the lex to steal repurpose one of the skitarii's hands for a backscratcher the good of atoma
it is a violation of the lex if the skitarii is chasing me down with a knife about it
so I can definitely hide behind request the arbitrators to step in, right
urgent question please respond quickly
Thank you for inquiry.
While it is true that theft is not covered under the Lex Imperialis, the act of chasing an imperial citizen with a knife is also not covered under the Lex Imperialis.
Misallocation or theft of Imperial resources, especially those used in the war effort, IS a violation of the Lex. Your attempt to use a critical piece of Adeptus Mechanicus technology as a back scratcher definitely falls under misallocation of Imperial resources.
CHARGE: Misallocation, theft, and waste of Imperial resources.
MANDATED EDICT: Bullet Shield.
You have the right to confess to your crimes and seek absolution for your sins. Pleas for leniency will not be heard.

Help, I visited an Imperial fortune teller and this is what they gave me.
I didn't do anything wrong, I swear-
Thank you for your inquiry.
Arbitrators do not commit acts of "police brutality", they carry out the sentences that Lex-breakers deserve. If you have not violated the Lex Imperialis, you have no reason to be afraid.
If you have violated the Lex Imperialis, you WILL be brought to justice.
I just saw an ogryn pick up an Arbitrator and chuck him at the heretic. Is he gunna be okay?
Thank you for your inquiry.
Who is "he" in this scenario? Unless the impact harmed them, the Arbitrator should be fine. I feel that if the ogryn was not executed on the spot for assaulting an arbitrator, he too, shall be fine.
If I had to guess, either the ogryn suggested to the arbitrator that he could throw them, or the arbitrator suggested to the ogryn that they could be thrown. Either way, it seems that this would be consensual, and therefore not a violation of the Lex.
Increased scavenging by Lex-breakers in Tertium has resulted in the inability to collect resources (including ammunition, grenades, stimms, and materials) or access medicae servitors regularly during select missions. If you are deployed to a zone where this is the case, it is recommended to conserve ammo when possible and to search the corpses of the heretics, especially specialists and monstrosities, for supplies.
Completion of at least 10 missions in these zones will result in commendation and an award for your service.
What are your thoughts on death cults? One Arbitrator I have met in my travels distrusted them and felt that their methods encouraged mob justice.
Thank you for your inquiry.
The official stance of the Adeptus Arbites is that death cults, while considered a form of worshipping the Emperor, frequently result in more negative than positive results. Death cults can cause a reduction in a planet's ability to pay tithes due to the bloodshed, and can potentially lead to vigilante or mob justice, which is not generally allowed when it comes to the enforcement of the Lex Imperialis. The Lex is very complicated, and only those trained in its enforcement can be trusted to enforce it properly.
What is the adeptus arbites opinion on mechanics skittari involvement in the atoma prime situation
Thank you for your inquiry.
While it is always good to have more troops than your enemy in a war of attrition, having the presence of yet another organization aboard the Mourningstar may create conflict and slow the progress that the warband has fought so hard to build. We have already seen some friction between the Militarum leadership and the Inquisitorial Retinue, and tensions can run high between the Arbites and the Conclave, so adding yet another set of leaders who have their own agendas will probably strain relationships.
From a Lex enforcement standpoint, the Skitarii are much less likely to cause problems than the Conclave. The Treaty of Mars also gives the Mechanicus more leeway under Imperial Law, however, requiring application of Lex enforcement to members of the Adeptus Mechanicus need to be more precise and nuanced than it may be otherwise.

I would like to extend my gratitude towards the Adeptus Arbites, for their crucial contribution towards the eradication of hereteks. I do have one question though. Why does the Adeptus Arbites not immediately kill hereteks when apprehending them? All punishment for heresy is termination of life, and I do not understand why the Adeptus Arbites simply do not take the most efficient action? As Archmagos Terminus, me and my subcult of the Adeptus Mechanicus take great offense to this.
Thank you for your inquiry.
We do not, as an organization, sentence people for the crime of heresy. While heresy can be an additional charge, it is our duty as Arbitrators to issue sanctions for violations of the Lex Imperialis. Heretics are more likely to be sentenced for the crime of betraying the Imperium, with a secondary charge of heresy. In many such cases, executions are carried out on the spot.
In some cases, however, the Lex breaker may be part of a larger criminal organization, and thus it is critical to detain the Lex-breaker for interrogation. If we can simply get them to confess to crimes and name potential accomplices, it saves us time and resources, thus being able to deal with more cases rather than wasting time to hunt down information we could have told to us.
In the case of Atoma Prime, the Adeptus Arbites were deployed due to Atoma failing to pay their tithe. Those who made it so that the tithe could not be met must be sentenced. Now, in many cases, the sentence is on-the-spot executions due to the limited role that pox-walkers or cultists likely have in operational decisions of the Admonition Cult or the Moebian 6th. Some traitors, however, such as the Karnak Twins serve (or served) in leadership positions and could have provided valuable information. As it were, Interrogator Rannick ordered a strike team to execute the twins, and so no information will be retrieved from their corpses.
In practice, obviously, you cannot bring any charges against a member of the Inquisition (barring very unique circumstances), but on principle, do you consider those Inquisitors who regularly work with xenos mercenaries to be heretics?
Thank you for your inquiry.
The duty of the Adeptus Arbites is not identify and punish heretics, but rather to enforce the Lex Imperialis. Identifying and sentencing heretics on a large scale or in positions of power falls to the Holy Orders of the Emperor's Inquisition, in this case, the Ordo Xenos.
Unless they are in violation of the Lex Imperialis, we do not pass judgement (in a judicial sense). We can, of course, be suspicious of and investigate those who we believe to be Lex breakers, which is when investigations may be conducted.
This is a reminder to those experiencing the season commonly referred to as "Summer" to remain hydrated. Failure to remain hydrated can result in a decrease in productivity, which may cause your planet to not meet their tithe. Causing a tithe to not be met will result in a harsh sentence.
When hydrating, the Adeptus Arbites recommends the consumption of water (dihydrogen monoxide). While other fluids approved for consumption may provide hydration, the most effective is still water.
The Adeptus Medicae recommends the consumption of between 2.7 liters and 3.7 liters of water daily.
Hi, hello, I'm in one of the holding cells and I know I'm a lex breaker, and that I'm not meant to have anything on me rught now but one of the others in here is talking crazy and while it was a bit funny at the start, he's started crawling around on all fours talking in some strange language, and I'm honestly a bit scared now haha.
Could you maybe send someone down here? I swear on this month's rations that I'll hand over my device without a fight and scrub the cells top to bottom if you get them to hurry, he keeps trying to bite people, I think he even managed to get on the ceiling??
-A really freaked out inmate
CHARGE: Obtaining and using communications devices while detained in the blocks.
MANDATED EDICT: Chastisement beating and extension of blocks sentence.
An Arbitrator will be coming to your cell to perform your sanction and to search you for contraband. While they are down there, they will inspect the other cells and block-fodder.
i jus teamed up yer kogboyz an’ whyz do dey keep talk'n ta dere daka, also dey say kreat'n iz a krime which iz ‘da zogin stupidest fing me an’ ‘da Boyz eva heard. Kan yer 'umiez 'plain.
Thank you for your inquiry.
I do not claim to fully understand the practices or actions of the Adeptus Mechanicus, but as the Skitarii have recently joined the Warband, I'm sure I shall be seeing more of them.
For further inquiries, I recommend reaching out to @adeptus-mechanicus-official or their colleague @isuggestthedragon , although I do not expect Xenos to understand.

Question, I seem to have awoken from the dead, what should I do?
Thank you for your inquiry.
The Lex Imperialis does not, to my knowledge, cover people returning from the dead.
Please report to your local member of the ecclesiarchy so that they can determine if you are some manner of living saint and blessed by the Emperor, or if your resurrection is the result of heresy and chaos taint.
My superiors have checked my posts and determined that I am answering too many personal questions. As such, I am going to refocus my efforts on answering Arbites-related inquiries. I may still respond to personal inquiries from time to time, but just not as often.
