(→‎Abilities: In-world; I can't find any source for the claim that Lifeless can't be sensed by those with enough Breath and indeed it seems contradicted by chapter 22, where Vivenna realizes she can't sense Jewels but implies she can sense Clod)
Arsteel joined [[Denth's crew]] in the hopes of bringing [[Denth]] around and orchestrating a reconciliation between him and [[Vasher]].{{wob ref|6806}}
 
Though he was the better swordsman, he was killed in a duel with Vasher several months before the events of the [[Pahn Kahl rebellion]] in Yarn Dred.{{book ref|wb|19}} Vasher defeated him by suddenly giving him a large quantity of [[Breath]]; the arrival of that Breath sent Arsteel into a brief moment of deep pleasure, which distracted him for long enough for Vasher to kill him.{{wob ref|7469}} He was then made into a [[Lifeless]] named '''Clod''' by Denth and subsequently looked after by Jewels.{{book ref|wb|33}}{{wob ref|5838}}
 
In the middle of an unsuccessful meeting with some Idrian slumlords, Arsteel (as he was Commanded) intervened.{{book ref|wb|31}} Though he was terribly wounded, his nature as Lifeless allowed for Jewels to repair him. After his muscles were sufficiently functional for him to sit up, he attempted to do so, forcing Jewels to Command him to go inactive.{{book ref|wb|33}} In her fear for his life, she slipped up, allowing Vivenna to hear the command phrase--"howl of the sun".
