Lord Botetort appears among the retainers issuing orders in the Great Hall, a figure of rank amid the shifting court. At the coronation feast he sits beside the new King Jarat, with his daughter at his side. The story gives him a place in the realm’s public life but little further personal history.

Description

The text identifies Lord Botetort as an adult man and noble, but supplies no details of his face, hair, eyes, complexion, or build. His clothing is not described. His status is conveyed through his position among retainers in the Great Hall and at the royal feast.
