    If the Arbiter is female shouldn't she be called the Arbitress?

    Also sounds cooler and more unique IMO

    "Arbiter" has less letters.

    Not really. Jaina is a woman but she's called Lord Admiral. Sylvanas is a woman but she was called Warchief.

    The Arbiter is a cosmic entity of phenomenal power. You really thing she gives two shits about an arbitrary term of gender identity that few people, herself included, ever actually think about.

    We are not in 1982 buddy. There are no Actresses any more. They are all Actors. Catch up or become irrelevant.

    She's an ancient cosmic entity that rules over the realm of the dead.
    Her name in that context, is not gendered.

    So no, she shouldn't.


    Formerly known as Arafal

    I would only support using Arbitress to discern her from the one true Arbiter: Thel Vadam

    (sorry I couldn't help it)

    It's a good point. It probably should be arbitress.

    The Alliance gets the Horde's most popular race. The Horde should get the Alliance's most popular race in return. Alteraci Humans for the Horde!

    I mean the night elves do. But they're sexist shitlords that have rigidly defined gender roles (except when they don't)

    The arbiter can choose their own pronouns and labels.

    Nope not necessarily, in another game called Legend of Heroes JRPG the leader of an organization called the grandmaster even though the leader is in fact a woman.
