I was wondering why is Scabandari called bloodeye? I mean he has blue eyes right? I had always presumed the scars on his face had run through his eyes making them bloodshot but I went back to MT and the descriptions don't mention that. Also do we ever hear more about him in the main books? I'm sure he makes an appearance in the Kharkanas series.

The dialogue from MT, before Silchas got stabbed. 4th page of Prologue, 17th page in Czech book. (freely translated to English)

Silchas: 'Im afraid of what I dont know, Scabandari...Bloodeye. About this realm and its ways, its needed to find out a lot'
Scabandari: 'Bloodeye'
'You dont see yourself, but I am giving you this name, because now blood is obscuring your...vision'
'From you, Silchas Ruin, it fits'

It's basically Silchas Ruin's way of telling Scabby 'I know what you're up to, buddy.' and is not meant in a literal, physical way, but in that Scabby has developed a problem with bloodlust and is up to more shenanigans, and also possibly a veiled warning.
