'''Arcite 99-40''' is the [[Crucible]] Quartermaster, located in the [[Tower]]. He is responsible for selling Crucible Weapons and [[Sparrow]]s to [[Guardian]]s. He also offers Guardians weekly Crucible [[Bounties]].

==Biography==
The last of [[Lord Shaxx]]'s personal combat [[frame]]s, Arcite's combat systems were removed and replaced with the Tower's vendor protocols when Shaxx began overseeing the Crucible, but his memory banks still remember the many battles he has fought.<ref name="CQ"/> Shaxx once sent Arcite to deal with members of [[Tex Mechanica]] who wanted to fix Crucible results for a profit. During the exchange where he rebuffed them on Shaxx's behalf, he showed he has adopted many of Shaxx's mannerisms, as indicated by his accent and his propensity for repeating what Shaxx says.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]], [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Places/The City#Ghost Fragment: The City Age 2|Ghost Fragment: The City Age 2]]''</ref>

After the fall of the [[Last City]] to the [[Cabal]], Arcite and Lord Shaxx relocated to [[The Farm]] along with many other survivors. There Arcite served as a gunsmith for the resistance.

During the battle to retake the Last City from the Cabal, Arcite accompanied Lord Shaxx's team. As they rushed to join [[Zavala]], [[Ikora Rey]], and [[Cayde-6]]'s fireteams, they were cut off by a Cabal barrier field.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/9/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]], [[Chosen]]''</ref>

With the City reclaimed, Arcite resumes his duties assisting Shaxx in managing the Crucible from the new [[Tower (Destiny 2)|Tower]]. He and [[Dahlia 99-40]] also attempt to modify one of Shaxx's Redjacks for an unknown purpose.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/9/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]], [[Ghost Scans]]: TW-H-2''</ref>

As the Vanguard awaits [[Uldren Sov|Crow]] on his journey into the Pale Heart after recovering [[Riven]] and [[Taranis]]' eggs within the [[Dreaming City]], Arcite would assist Guardians in defending Earth against the forces of [[The Witness|the Witness]] by issuing them [[BRAVE Arsenal]] weaponry within the [[Hall of Champions]].
