== History ==

Ham grew up in the streets of Luthadel. Son of two skaa parents and a noble grandparent. {{book ref|mb2|42}}. When he grew up he ran general security for jobs, providing his crewleader with manpower and warriors, assuming such are necessary. {{book ref|mb1|4}}

He joined Kelsier on his Skaa rebellion working initially for Yeden, based on the promise of payment, including the Lord Ruler’s atium. His role was to train the Skaa army. {{book ref|mb1|4}} He did that on secure caves away from Luthadel becoming General Hammond. He would leave the crew for months to train and inspect them, {{book ref|mb1|16}} and made good progress with their skills. {{book ref|mb1|21}}

He was later replaced in the training camps by Yeden and sent back to Luthadel to work closer with Kelsier. {{book ref|mb1|21}}

He also trained [[Vin]] in using Pewter. Through doing this he gained a friendship with Vin, who accompanied him when travelling to meet the Garrison in [[Luthadel]] where they found that their army was exposed and they were marching to fight them. {{book ref|mb1|24}} Ham was asked by the Garrison to join them, and Kell asked him to do so and be the inside guy, though Ham decided he would not betray them from the inside. {{book ref|mb1|25}}

After most the army was lost to the Garrison killing Yeden in battle and scattering the rest. {{book ref|mb1|25}} the crew was ready to quit, but with the Lord Ruler executing random Skaa in reprisal for the army creation, Kelsier rallied the team to push further and used the fact that the Garrison was out to strike directly into Luthadel. {{book ref|mb1|26}}

Ham was then tasked to bring the remaining troops into Luthadel and continue recruitment to join the rebellion. They would be trained in small packs without the knowledge of each other’s existence. {{book ref|mb1|27}} He was successful at training this army as well. {{book ref|mb1|29}}

When [[OreSeur|Renoux]] , [[Spook]] along with his servants, staff and guards were captured, Kelsier decided to rescue them. Ham fetched one of the rebel teams and led the attack to rescue them while Kelsier fought the [[Steel Inquisitor]] {{book ref|mb1|33}} who eventually killed him as he had planned. {{book ref|mb1|34}}

After Kelsier’s death, he left instructions for the final assault. Ham would take care of four remaining noble houses, fetch the army and go to warehouses. The assault leader would be [[Clubs]] though. {{book ref|mb1|34}} He did manage to bring down Keep Elariel and kept fighting till the end. {{book ref|mb1|37}}

After the death of the Lord Ruler , he agreed to be the captain of Elend’s guard on a single condition: that he would never have to wear a uniform. {{book ref|mb2|3}}. He, along with the rest of Kelsier’s crew acted as advisors for Elend during the siege of Straff and Cett’s army. {{book ref|mb2|13}}. And had kept on being so even with the Kollos army’s threat. {{book ref|mb2|23}}

Due to his loyalty to Elend, he tried to help him research legal ways for him to keep his throne, however, he is not a scholar and the task proved hard for him. {{book ref|mb2|34}} He also stayed by his side when his throne was taken and helped execute several of his personal ideas. {{book ref|mb2|42}}

When the Koloss army finally attacked, Ham lead the defense, however his Keep fell and he lost most of his strength. He along with Breeze and Sazed were looking to evacuate as many survivors as possible. {{book ref|mb2|53}} They, however were in very bad shape, Ham was deeply wounded and could not fight anymore. When Vin came back to the city, he gave her his pewter. {{book ref|mb2|54}} He fell unconscious after that and by the time he woke up, Vin had taken back the city. He then helped Elend and later Sazed on finding Vin, the well and each other. {{book ref|mb2|57}} He found and helped with Luthadel’s storage created by the Lord Ruler. {{book ref|mb2|Epilogue}}

His second in command, Captain [[Demoux] who he had trained since the caves, eventually took over his role.

After [[Ruin]] was released, Ham continued to help train soldiers and was present at the siege of [[Fadrex City]]. He was responsible for making Elend decide not to release the [[Koloss]] on the city, one of the only cases where Ham decided to make a total decision. Ham survived the [[Catacendre]].

 

== Attributes and Abilities ==

Ham is a [[Pewter|Thug]].{{book ref|mb1|4}}. Thugs—or, Pewterarms, as the nobility prefer to call them—are the most sought-after Mistings. A competent Thug can stand against a half-dozen regular men, and he can lift more, endure more, and move faster than any other hired muscle. {{book ref|mb1|24}}
