- First seen · Book 3 · Ch. 10
A tall, living man in a flowing black robe and a high, black helm, mounted on a huge black horse. His face is mostly hidden by the helm and shadow, but when visible it contorts into a fierce, wild-beast-like grimace; his mouth hangs open and slavers as rage overtakes him. His hair, eyes, complexion, and build are not established, so the portrait should emphasize the dark silhouette, concealed features, and threatening expression.
