Cuttle
A squat, scarred sapper of the Malaz 7th Army serving under Captain Mincer, Cuttle plays Troughs badly, loses worse, and strikes Fiddler as a burlier, gloomier Hedge.
Cuttle is a veteran sapper of the Malaz 7th Army, serving under Captain Mincer through the Whirlwind uprising in Seven Cities. Fiddler sizes him up as a burlier and more miserable version of Hedge. He is squat and blunt-featured, his face scarred and pitted, and he wears a leather cap and a haphazard set of boiled leather fittings over a threadbare uniform whose magenta has faded almost to mauve. His eyesight fails him in poor light. Off duty he plays the board game Troughs, and has a habit of flinging the pieces about when he loses.
