BUrn is the Obelisk, and she has one of the most powerful Ascendants of them all working for her-Brood...
And she's def. a good example of what I meant...

this is where Abyss would make you chant 50 times that a card in the reading does NOT equal a position in the deck....
for my part, I'l just say that the whole "Knight of Shadow' business is iffy... I mean, sure, the Deck could have empowered Trull to stand up to Iccy, but how long that would last we were never sure.

I think the point is being missed here... one of the main morals of the series is that gods are dependent and constrained by their worshipers. Gods most likely dont choose their positions in the deck, they refelct the way their followers perceive them. Offhand i can't think of an ascendant who actually got a position in the deck they tried for, yet there's several who had it thrust upon them.

You have learned well, Disciple.
Point being however...
1. Knight, Champion, Soldier, Mortal Sword.... in the House sense, or the god/worshipper sense, (as opposed to in the Deck sense which per Kud is a different thing) these are all variations on a theme - a powerful individual who is invested with further power by a God or similar source to act on their behalf. Karsa, by example, was described as both Knight and Mortal Sword. Rake is a Knight, but Clip claims to be his Mortal Sword (iirc), Dassem was a Knight, but technically could have his own Knight or Mortal Sword once he became Dessembrae...
2. Baudin died. Hood took his soul and most of his body, invested power in him, and made him his new Knight. Thus, imnsho, Baudin is now an Ascendant. He can die again, just not easily. Heboric was supposed to receive a similar treatment but Laseen interferred by having his hands chopped off, rather than killing him (or rather, having it done).
3. Brys is a conundrum - the Errant via FW, the Empty Hold and either the Tiste generally or just Kurald Emurlahn via the Warlock King all seemed to want to claim him. Plus the forgotten gods and Mael's guardian took an interest. So just what Brys ended up as by the time he was resurrected is fairly open.
- Abyss, Mortal Sharpie.

Brys is kinda of like a hot shot talent, all the agents wants to sign him to there team...
he could get a lot of perks for that maybe a new viper, (or since it is malaz he could get dead again pretty fast I guess)
You can't find me because I'm lost in the music

even Quik Ben tells Trull that he is the knight of shadow in reapers gale and then blames ST or the Rope but then QB says that the Es`sal(spelling) chose him or something like that
could cause his child is going to be the king of the healed KE

I wonder where the Eres'al was while Ruin was chopping away at him or he got stabbed in the back.

She kinda dissapeared after the Iccy incident--she even stopped following Bottle around...

No he's still haunted by the Eres in RG. I think it's stormy that remarks that Bottle is a disgusting little mage, when Fid or someone corrects him and explains that a ghost is raping the poor bastard.

I'm fairly certain that once in the jungle, Fiddler asks him if his spirit is around to help and he says that he hasn't felt her since that night in Malaz..
damn, one of us will have to come up with a quote...

Yes, and I'm very lazy right now.
EDIT: page 424 RG.
...
Bottle-"
"Oh, him. That one gives me the creeps, Fid. Masturbates like I pick my nose. Now sure, soldiers will do that, but-"
"He says it's not him."
"Well, if Smiles wants to reach in under the covers-"
"Smiles? What are you going on about, Stormy?
"I mean-"
"Look, Bottle's haunted by a damned ghost of some kind - Quick Ben confirmed it... bla bla more talk
I remember Bottle saying the Ghost is gone but maybe she comes to him in his sleep with out him remembering it?

Well, i just wasted a better half of an hour
RG trade paperback, pg 751, before the Letherii unleash a sorcery wave at the marines, Fiddler yelling at Bottle
"Listen! is she-'
"No, Fid! Nowhere! She's not been with me since we landed. I'm sorry--'
