|[[Jewels]] about Arsteel{{book ref|wb|19}}
}}
As a [[Returned]], Arsteel can have the Fifth Heightening whenever he desires, and all the effects that implies, such as agelessness.{{book ref|wb|prologue}}{{book ref|wb|part=ars}}
As one of the Five Scholars, Arsteel is extremely knowledgable about [[Awakening]]. It is likely he knows how to manipulate his appearance using his divine breath because as a [[lifeless]] (and likely before dying) he has the body of a normal man, and not a [[Returned]].{{book ref|wb|19}}
Arsteel is an incredibly skilled swordsman.{{book ref|wb|19}} Since Lifeless retain some of the skills they had in life, Clod is a significantly more skilled swordfighter than other Lifeless.{{wob ref|6806}} Additionally, as a result of the Breaths Vasher gave Arsteel right before killing him, Clod is more self-aware than most Lifeless.{{wob ref|4635}}
== History ==
=== Returned and Manywar ===
Arsteel was born on Nalthis, very little is known about his life during this time, it is known however that he had a brother, who would return as [[Yesteel]]. He eventually died and Returned. Like other [[Returned]], he cannot remember anything of his life from before his Return. After he Returned, the Cult of the Returned gave him an unknown name and kept him alive by giving him Breath.{{cite}}
He formed the Five Scholars, along with the other Returned [[Denth]], [[Talaxin]], [[Shashara]], and [[Yesteel]]. During this time he probably studied awakening and gained an understanding of its mechanics.{{cite}}
After the [[Manywar]] began Arsteel and his brother Yesteel joined the Pahn Unity and began aiding them using their knowledge of awakening.{{book ref|wb|32}}
===Denth===
Arsteel and Denth are friends, despite fighting on different sides during the manywar. Arsteel joined Denth's team because he wanted to try to redeem Denth. He felt that a reconciliation between Denth and [[Vasher]] was possible, and as a peacemaker, he thought he might be able to make it happen.{{wob ref|6806}}
===Vasher===
Arsteel wants to reconcile Denth and Vasher. Arsteel fights Vasher in [[Yarn Dred]] to beat some sense into him, though he was not necessarily right. This went wrong however, as Vasher killed Arsteel.{{book ref|wb|19}}
