Apariencia y personalidad

por Jamie Knierim

Edwarn Ladrian es un hombre de cara redondeada y de complexión robusta que destaca por su barba meticulosamente recortada, sus elegantes trajes confeccionados y sus corbatas, tan finas y estrechas que caen lisas como una pajarita aflojada al final de una larga noche.

Suele vestir con un gusto impecable con trajes caros de seda negra, chalecos de color turquesa y un bastón de marfil de ballena. Otra de sus características más notables es que no le gusta el olor a cigarrillos. Edwarn estaba muy al corriente de todos los movimientos de su fortuna familiar y vigilaba de cerca todo lo que las familias rivales transportaban, aunque acabó invirtiendo todo su dinero en financiar al Grupo. Como fiel seguidor del Trellismo tenía la intención de darle información relacionada con estas creencias a Wax, tras lo cual Ironeyes le entregó un libro a su sobrino. Cuando la Immortal sin rostro de ojos rojos fue a buscarle, Edwarn afirma que seguirá a Trell.

Atributos y habilidades

Edwarn es un Hemalúrgico con tres clavos, lo que le confiere el poder de un lanzamonedas, un Hacedor de sangre, y una sanguijuela respectivamente, ya que el hecho de tener cuatro o más clavos hemalúrgicos podría volver al portador susceptible a un control completo de Harmonía.

Historia

por Ben McSweeney

Edwarn was Wax's uncle, a descendant of Breeze and Allrianne, and was the fifteenth High Lord of House Ladrian.

Before Edwarn faked his death, it was widely believed that he had wasted the family fortune through poor business deals while earning a meager sum betting on horse races. He was remembered as hermit-like save for his letters to the broadsheets about political matters, and had offended three-quarters of the city’s upper crust.

It was later revealed he had prepared Hinston to take over the Ladrians’ house, but owing to an unfortunate disease that resulted in his death, Edwarn had to resort to Wax instead. He also confirmed that he was secretly transferring funds into the Set's bank account in preparation for his fake death and subsequent new life.

He managed to doom House Tekiel. By funding the Vanishers in their robberies, the house owed payments on too many high-profile losses. These attacks, and the insurance claims, devastated them and their financial integrity. Company shareholders had been selling their stakes for pennies.

Edwarn and the Set wanted to breed Allomancers. He hired Miles and the Vanishers to capture women with correct powers to do so. Both Steris and Marasi were on his list, and when the former was captured, Wax took it upon himself to find her.

Wax figured out he was alive and under the alias of “Mr Suit”, Miles' employer. He also decoded Miles' notes which tracked his moves. He found his uncle, but had to let him go, as he had his sister captive.

Edwarn was later confirmed to be looking to start a rebellion in Elendel, creating chaos and profiting from it. Along with the Set he was developing higher technology that was still kept secret from the rest of the population; they were probably using it to create Allomancers, as there was not time for breeding.

Edwarn was also looking for a weapon in the south, so he trekked to the temple housing them. He tried to negotiate with Wax to help get them and almost managed to kill him by using his sister Telsin as a mole who shot him.

As Wax got the Bands' power and recovered, he confronted his uncle who was quick to arm a bomb in an airship and managed a duel. Eventually Wax beat Edwarn, leaving him tied to the top of the temple’s Lord Ruler’s spear.

Later, a Faceless Immortal with glowing red eyes visited him in prison and was impressed that he didn't give away any information. It then killed Edwarn and itself with an explosion just after stating: “You will be allowed to serve in another Realm.”

Relationships

Wax

As Wax's uncle, Edwarn understands his nephew very much to the point of nearly predicting his every movements. He had overseen Wax´s education, grooming him specifically as heir to the house. Because Hinston dies, he searches for Wax to take over his fortune and estate after his death, hoping he has overcome his sense of morality. This is not the case, and though he resisted killing him in the beginning he later asked his butler Tillaume kill Wax. He survives and understood that for someone who had been loyal to the family for so long, the only reason he could be so eager to kill him was that he was following his former master. This is how Wax finds out his uncle is still alive.

Telsin

Edwarn is Telsin's uncle, and they both faked their death in the same carriage accident. She is a member of the Set and had him join. She outranks him, and can give him orders.

Trivia

• In the Mistborn books, Brandon likes to give characters nicknames along the lines of what might happen in a thieving crew; Edwarn's moniker "Mr. Suit" is an example of this.
