-The Arcadian avenger (capitalized to reflect their primary realm) is a being that appears in ''[[Dungeons & Dragons]]'', and is first introduced in the 2007 ''Monster Manual V'' for 3.5e. An Arcadian avenger is a type of militant outsider that acts as a defender of the lawful planes of Arcadia and the House of the Triad. Accordingly, Arcadian avengers are all lawful: most were of a lawful good bent, but several dispassionately value the rule of law over benevolence and are lawful neutral. All Arcadian avengers look remarkably similar, resembling athletic human women whose skin and wings are seemingly made of a silver-like metal; they also wear armor made of a similar metal, and are typically equipped with a pair of masterfully crafted [[long sword]]s, rather than short swords as in dNetHack.
