Mr Pin - Discworld Character Biography
Character Bio
Mr. Pin is one half of the infamous New Firm, a duo of ruthless enforcers in Ankh-Morpork, known for their brutal efficiency and lack of scruples. He is the more articulate and seemingly sophisticated of the pair, often taking the lead in their operations. His significance in 'The Truth' lies in his role as an antagonist, representing the darker, more violent side of the city's underworld, and his interactions with other characters highlight the moral complexities of the Discworld universe.
Physical Appearance
Mr. Pin is a tall, lean man with a sharp, angular face that seems to be permanently set in a sneer. His hair is dark and slicked back, giving him a somewhat greasy appearance, and his eyes are cold and calculating, always assessing his surroundings. He dresses in a manner that suggests both style and menace, often wearing a long, dark coat that flares out as he moves, and polished shoes that click ominously on the cobblestones. His presence is unsettling, with a predatory grace that hints at the violence lurking beneath his polished exterior.
