(Too much speculation. We don't know how long this guy was Arbiter or was alive for or what the state of politics was across Sangheili space)

Biography

War of Beginnings

The Arbiter watching the severed heads of the delegation be transported to the San'Shyuum

In 938 BCE, the Reformist San'Shyuum landed on the Sangheili frontier world of Ulgethon and sent a delegation to meet with the Arbiter. Due to the Reformists' view that Forerunner technology should be used and studied, a notion that was considered blasphemous by the Sangheili, the Arbiter used his sword to behead the members of the delegation. When the San'Shyuum discovered this, a war between the two species broke out, which would eventually lead to the signing of the Writ of Union and the creation of the Covenant.[1]

Age of the Covenant

In 2552, millennia after the war, a San'Shyuum scribe mentioned the Arbiter and his role in instigating the War of Beginnings as part of The Punished Deeds, a Covenant document detailing the history of the empire and its member species.[1]
