Baudin

 

huge and bestial

once, of the Talon, now Knight of Hood

 

 

'his blunt, bearded face...large hands' (DG, UK MMPB, p.310)

 

'A dark, armoured figure...two flanking longswords, one of them strangely bent.' (MoI, uk mmpb, p.898)

 

Baudin, red-scarred where one ear used to be, the hair growing tangled and bestial from the puckered skin...(DG, UK MMPB, p.271)

 

Baudin's Hidden Kit: 'a small, flat packet of deer hide (w/drawstrings)...unfolded...to reveal a set of fine thief's tools - an assortment of picks, minute saws and files, knobs of wax, a small sack of finely ground flour, and two dismantled stilletos, the needlelike blades deeply blued and exuding a bitter, caustic smell, the bone hafts polished and dark-stained, the small hilts in pieces that hinged together to form an X-shaped guard, and holed and weighted pommels of iron wrapped around lead cores. Throwing weapons. An assassin's weapons. The last item in the packet was tucked into a leather loop: the talon of some large cat, amber-coloured and smooth. She wondered if it held poison, painted invisibly on its surface. The item was ominous in its mystery.'

(DG, UK MMPB, p.282)

 

Baudin:‘I worked in a prison gang, scuttling the republic’s fleet in Quon Harbour. That was twenty years ago ... ‘Young to be in a prison gang,’ Stormy said ‘You were what, ten? Fifteen?’ ‘Something like that,’ Baudin said (DG UKTpb, p.230)

 

 

‘There was a man, once, whose task was to guard the life of a young girl. He did the best he could – with such honour as to draw, upon his sad death, the attention of Hood himself. Oh, the Lord of Death will look into a mortal’s soul, given the right circumstances. The, uh, the proper incentive. Thus, that man is now the Knight of Death—’ (HoC UKTpb, p.752)
