Character · Book 6, The Eye of the Bedlam Bride

Ogun

God of Blacksmithery and Armor, level 250, an outsider from a dissipated pantheon who forges armour for four-legged beasts at a celestial anvil and believes punishments should be handed out in person: he crushes Anton's head, burns Paz's face and permanent, and spares Carl for Emberus's sake. 'Now tell my sister I said, Welcome Back.'

Arc

Lightning through the ceiling; a calm Caribbean voice; Sister Ines Shelved; Paz's face; Anton's head underfoot. 'One of those rules is that you must know your place. If I didn't hold Emberus in such high esteem, I would crush you, too' (ch. 16).
