Malo
An Apoth warden of Yarrow, Pithian and Yarrow born, with senses altered well past the ordinary, who commands a crew of wardens and is paired with Dinios Kol when the Iudex sends him out to her canton.
Signum Malo is an Apoth warden of the canton of Yarrow, born of Pithian and Yarrow stock and at home in the jungle territories and canal country where most imperial officers are useless. She works in a crimson Apoth's uniform that is usually muddy, commands a crew of wardens who hunt and scout with her, and translates Pithian for officers who cannot follow a word of it. Her alterations carry her senses well past the ordinary in scent, sight, and hearing alike, and her manner is pragmatic and unhurried. In A Drop of Corruption she is the warden Dinios Kol is paired with when the Iudex sends him to her canton, guiding him through Yarrowdale and explaining the country, its creatures, and the workings of the canals.
