Edward D Eath - Discworld Character Biography
Character Bio
Edward D'Eath is a zealous and somewhat unhinged member of the Assassins' Guild in Ankh-Morpork, driven by a misguided sense of nobility and destiny. Obsessed with restoring the monarchy, he believes himself to be a key player in a grand historical narrative, despite his lack of practical skills and understanding. His significance lies in his role as a catalyst for the events in 'Men at Arms,' where his actions inadvertently set off a chain of chaos and intrigue.
Physical Appearance
Edward D'Eath is a gaunt, pale young man with an intense, almost fanatical gleam in his eyes, reflecting his obsession with destiny and nobility. He typically wears the traditional black garb of the Assassins' Guild, complete with a cloak that seems a size too large for his thin frame, giving him a slightly spectral appearance. His hair is dark and lank, often falling into his eyes, and he carries himself with a nervous energy, as if constantly on the brink of some grand revelation. His attire is meticulously maintained, yet his overall appearance suggests a man teetering on the edge of sanity, driven by his delusions of grandeur.
