Series arc
As of book 3. A name in book 2; in book 3 the other end of the line — four hundred crawlers gathered, twenty eaten by Terminus, a Kravyad neutralised and lost, fifty kilometres to the abyss on foot, six hundred saved by carts and hats. His secret is Miss Quill's stuffed monsters, and his sponsor is the company that makes them.

The other end of the line: four hundred gathered, twenty eaten by Terminus, a Kravyad neutralised and lost, fifty kilometres to the abyss, six hundred saved by carts and hats (B3 ch. 18, B3 ch. 20, B3 ch. 28). His secret is Miss Quill's stuffed monsters, true summonings from Jaxbrin Amusements, who now sponsor him (B3 ch. 29).

By book
Daniel Bautista in book 2 — Carl's Doomsday Scenario
His sisters' and cousin's corpses are the lemurs' bait (ch. 5, ch. 6); his name is on the Divider's corpse (ch. 18). Met at last outside the collapsing municipal building (ch. 23): a Tigran who wishes he had stayed human so God would recognise him, whose quest Carl ruined and whose family Carl avenged. 'Call me if you need me, and I will come.' Points the way to the second stairwell (ch. 25).
Daniel Bautista in book 3 — The Dungeon Anarchist's Cookbook
Carl's other switchboard: station 199 (ch. 4), the club-number trick and the first bounty talk (ch. 6), the end of the line. He gathers four hundred, loses twenty to Terminus, neutralises the Kravyad with a Voca Nye and loses the portal when she dies (ch. 18, ch. 19, ch. 20), walks fifty kilometres to the abyss, loses almost fifty on its walkway, and waits with six hundred while Carl's carts come (ch. 27, ch. 28). His secret is Miss Quill's stuffed monsters — true summonings, from Jaxbrin Amusements, his sponsor (ch. 29). A tiger 'vomited upon by a Lisa Frank notebook,' level 28, a swashbuckler who needs to practise with his sword. 'Thank god for plan B.' 'That was actually plan C.'
