Everything about Arbiter: story and gameplay

A structured look at the narrative, game feel, and traits that define this game.

Story & context
"For centuries, the world has been filled with demonic spirits known as Ethers and Umbras -- beings made of pure spiritual energy. These two races have been at war since their inception, with humanity caught in the middle unable to retaliate. One day, two spirits known as Dove and Raven chose to help the humans, and gave one of them the power to transform into a spirit himself. This human was known as the Arbiter, and his job was to defeat and seal more dangerous spirits within himself. As a result, the war ended, and the spirits stopped their fighting in fear of being sealed for all eternity... except for some. The Greater Spirits were much more intelligent, powerful spirits, and they did not fear the Arbiter's judgement. Their increased power made it much harder for the Arbiter to keep them sealed within his body. As a result, he had to pass down his powers to a successor as he grew Show full description

"For centuries, the world has been filled with demonic spirits known as Ethers and Umbras -- beings made of pure spiritual energy. These two races have been at war since their inception, with humanity caught in the middle unable to retaliate. One day, two spirits known as Dove and Raven chose to help the humans, and gave one of them the power to transform into a spirit himself. This human was known as the Arbiter, and his job was to defeat and seal more dangerous spirits within himself. As a result, the war ended, and the spirits stopped their fighting in fear of being sealed for all eternity... except for some. The Greater Spirits were much more intelligent, powerful spirits, and they did not fear the Arbiter's judgement. Their increased power made it much harder for the Arbiter to keep them sealed within his body. As a result, he had to pass down his powers to a successor as he grew older and weak. This went on for six generations until the most recent Arbiter was killed by a spirit known only as The Grey. With the last Arbiter's death, the spirits sealed by the Arbiters of the past were released back into the world, free to cause havoc once again. In his final moments, the Arbiter passed his powers onto his successor and apprentice, Ashe, a boy now faced with an impossible task. With the help of Dove and Raven, Ashe must now hunt the Greater Spirits that were released and seal them once more, restoring peace to humanity. But throughout his travels, he may find that the world isn't quite as black and white as it seems..."
