Nefarias Bredd is a character virtually everyone in the 14th mentions but we never see. Apparently he kills a bhederin, gets down and dirty with a few lasses and kills like 20 people in one battle, along with other stuff I can't remember. He's basically a 14th legend, and the most badass guy ever (yes Illy, even better than Torvald FUCKING Nom). I very much doubt he's real, thus not in the Dramatis Personae.


Only the women in the army ever claim to have seen him. Some like Smiles openly declare that they have, while most of the heavies just pass around stories of him but don't actually claim to have seen him. It's likely he's fictitious and made up by the women...

I kinda love it when D'rek unleashes her nerd wrath, as I knew she would here. Sorry innocent bystanders, but someone's gotta be the kindling.

You're both wrong. Balgrid wasn't fooling Pearl at all and Nom spends most of the book bleeding, starving or getting sunburn. :killingme:

Nefarias Bredd wins for mostest awesome character introduced in HoC.


- Abyss, ...could be said to butter up the Bredd...


You know, even though I just read HoC I can't place him at all. Who is Nefarias Bredd? Dramatis Personae can't help me so he must be a really minor character.



It doesn't help that the only info on NB you seem to get is from the Heavies, and the slowest, dullest heavies at that.

Well, no, it's not all heavies - we do get a dreamy-eyed Smiles describing him - but yeah, it's done purposely that way, to build mystique.

Glad I read the book because I would get such the wrong impression from these 'summaries.' No offense meant but can it really be said that I'm wrong?
The world needs hypocrites...unfortunate but true.

Good stuff Warenonia, but don't forget that after all that, Trull sits next to a wall and cries whilst starting his autobiography for Onrack (who is pseudo-crying because Dryjhna is now dead), the autobiography being MT.


Oh snap.

Damn now I can't wait to start MT!

It has been proven beyond all reasonable doubt that the most powerful force on Wu is a bunch of messed-up Malazans with Moranth munitions.
