[[Arqeshi]] are, for most intents and purposes, merely [[Nazetu]] - their origins are alike, their history is largely alike, and their physical appearances are nearly identical. Both are powerful, slimy creatures, built tall and strong. The main difference, however, is this - unlike the Nazetu, Arqeshi have been cleansed by one means or another of Corruption, and of [[Chakrasul]]'s influence.

A typical Arqeshi's diet consists largely of the bounty of the sea - shellfish, fish, seaweed, crabs, and whatever else lingers around the coastline are more likely than not to end up in the stew pot.

Although many Nazetu consider the month of Chakros sacred, a time for celebrating the power of Corruption, the Arqeshi interpret it instead as a time of wariness and caution, often fasting and refraining from indulgence to prevent Her from regaining Her power over them. In this time, it is also common to read and reinterpret the religious canon of the Nazedha, contrasting it against the ideals the Arqeshi have embraced upon the mainland.
