Onrack

The Broken

A T'lan Imass

"Onrack. Clanless, of the Logros." (HoC, UK MMPB, p.327)

"...hide-wrapped feet...Clumps of mud clung to his ragged hide shirt and the leather straps of his weapon harness. Silty, souply water had seeped into the various gashes and punctures on his body and now leaked in trickling runnels with every heavy step he took. He had possessed a helm once, an impressive trophy from his youth, but it had been shattered at the final battle against the Jaghut family in the Jhag Odhan. A single crossways blow that had also shorn away a fifth of his skull, parietal and temporal, on the right side." (HoC, UK MMPB, p.323)

"In truth, he (Onrack) was far less haunted by his immortality than most T'lan Imass...There was always something else to see, after all." (HoC, UK MMPB, p.323)

"Onrack drew forth his two-handed, curved obsidian sword...black rippled blade" (HoC, UK MMPB, p.323)

"From his shoulders hung the rotted skin of an en'karal, pebbled and colourless. It was a recent acquisition, less than a thousand years old" (HoC, UK MMPB, p.323)

Onrack on humankind

"They are prone to mistakes...The Logros have killed them in their thousands when the need to reassert order made doing so necessary. With ever greater frequency they annihilate themselves, for success breeds contempt for those very qualities that purchased it...More than my kin, perhaps, the edge of my irritation with humankind remains jagged." (HoC, UK MMPB, p.331)
