Felt es un saltamundos de Scadrial,[3] que se encuentra en Scadrial durante la caída del Imperio Final, y en Roshar durante la Guerra de la Venganza y la Auténtica Desolación.[2][3]
Apariencia y Personalidad
Felt tiene la piel pálida, cara afilada, y un bigote que se deja caer.[4][1] Es considerado un hombre bajo incluso en su Scadrial natal[4], y en Roshar, donde la gente es más alta en general,[5] es diminuto.[1] Como scadriano, los ojos de Felt no tienen la forma típica alezi, y se parecen más a los ojos shin.[1] Los alezi le consideran ojos oscuros, y piensan que parece "extranjero".[6] Hereda un sombrero marrón y flexible muy distintivo cuando Bashin se retira, y lo suele llevar como recuerdo.[7]
Es una persona segura, lógica y con recursos, y proporciona estabilidad durante sus misiones.[4][7] También es pensativo y observador, lo que le hace muy buen espía.[8][4] Su competencia y su personalidad agradable le permiten algo más de libertad que a otros soldados sobre algunas normas y reglas.[7] A diferencia de muchos nobles destacados, Felt tiene una ética de trabajo sólida.[9] Parece ser leal a quienes sirve, y disfruta encargándose de cualquier tarea que le asignen.[4]
Atributos y Habilidades
Como saltamundos ha sido miembro de varios grupos a lo largo de los años.[10] Sus motivaciones y lealtades han cambiado a lo largo de su vida, y ha sido un “agente encubierto” en el cosmere.[11] Ha sido consciente del cosmere desde su época en Scadrial, y también estaba el tanto del comercio interplanetario que ocurría en los Pozos de Hathsin, aunque eso no implica que necesariamente estuviera involucrado en ello.[12][13][10] Que se sepa no ha revelado sus habilidades o su conocimiento del cosmere a nadie ni en Scadrial ni en Roshar.
Es notablemente ágil y hábil.[8][1] Durante la [Auténtica Desolación]] es un hombre mayor.[6] No es tan vivaz como lo era en su juventud, aunque sigue conservando suficiente agilidad como para escalar sobre salientes rocosos o realizar tareas de exploración sin problemas.[7] Tiene entrenamiento como explorador militar,[6] y es capaz de sobrevivir a la intemperie y liderar grupos de soldados.[1] Su habilidad y experiencia como saltamundos podrían contribuir a su extraña habilidad para viajar a lugares desconocidos.[7]
Historia
En Scadrial
During the Siege of Luthadel, Felt was tasked with figuring out how the city was being infiltrated by someone who was poisoning food. He interrogated the refugees entering the city and the people running the Luthadel passwalls, but did not get very far. On a hunch, he had his men search the river and determined that someone had pried some drain grates free to create their own entrance into the city. Elend was pleased with Felt's competence and noticed that he took pleasure in his work. He resolved to utilize Felt's skills more often, including a possible assignment to find a kandra spy.[4]
Elend later noted that Felt was assigned to watch the Lord Ruler's storage cavern in the east during the Siege of Fadrex City.[14]
Felt nació como el tercer hijo de un noble menor durante el Imperio Final, poco antes de que cayera, y estaba acostumbrado a trabajar para ganarse la vida.[9][13]
Era uno de los espías principales de la Casa Venture. Trabajaba para Straff Venture antes de huir de Luthadel, y posteriormente trabajó para Elend.[9] Espió el escondite del grupo de Kelsier e informó a Elend de que eran una competente banda de ladrones skaa, con una buena financiación.[8] Su información hizo que Elend se diera cuenta de que Valette Renoux no era lo que parecía ser.[8]
Durante el asedio a Luthadel, Felt se encargó de averiguar quién se había infiltrado en la ciudad para envenenar la comida. Interrogó a los refugiados que entraban en la ciudad y a las personas que dirigían las murallas de Luthadel, pero no obtuvo demasiada información. Siguiendo una corazonada, hizo que sus hombres registraran el río y descubrió que alguien había levantado las rejillas de drenaje para crear su propia entrada. Elend quedó satisfecho con el desempeño de Felt, y además se dio cuenta de que este disfrutaba realizando su trabajo, por lo que decidió valerse más a menudo de él, incluyendo la tarea de encontrar un espía kandra.[5]
Más tarde, durante el asedio a Ciudad Fadrex[10], Elend se da cuenta de que Felt había sido asignado a vigilar la cueva de almacenamiento del lord Legislador que se encontraba al este.
En Roshar
Felt was with Dalinar when he visited the Nightwatcher not long after the assassination of Gavilar. Dalinar trusted him, as Felt was one of only a few people that knew of the visit. Felt seemed to have some insight into the effects of the Nightwatcher, and cautioned Dalinar about visiting her. Felt had visited the Nightwatcher prior to his trip with Dalinar, but she did not show herself; he believed that this was because she did not like foreigners, especially someone as "foreign" as he was. He also chuckled at Dalinar's lack of knowledge regarding birds (or "chickens", as Dalinar called them). Felt was the first person to say Evi's name to Dalinar after Cultivation's Old Magic took effect.[1]
He took part in the War of Reckoning, acting as an Alethi scout on the Shattered Plains who reported to Lyn during the Battle of Narak. He and Shim were sent to scout the plateaus surrounding Narak prior to the battle.[15]
Felt remained loyal to House Kholin during the True Desolation, and was chosen to accompany Adolin and Shallan on their journey through Shadesmar to Lasting Integrity. Adolin considered Felt's even temperament and scouting skills invaluable.[6] Felt monitored the movements of a group of Tukari that were following the expedition, reporting on them to Adolin. He was surprised to see the intelligence exhibited by Gallant when Adolin needed assistance.[7] When Adolin was put on trial, Felt did not return to Urithiru, instead staying in a camp near Lasting Integrity as part of Adolin's small support team.[16]
Relaciones
Malli
Felt's wife Malli has been present with him during several important events, including his visit to the Valley with Dalinar and the expedition to Lasting Integrity. Malli is able to use a spanreed and write in women's script, and can fulfill the role of a scribe on Felt's missions.[1][6] Felt and Malli have only been seen together on Roshar, and it is not known if she is a worldhopper or if she is even aware of Felt's abilities.
Elend Venture
Despite the fact that Felt originally worked for his father, Elend respects him and his opinions.[8] Because of the existence of kandra on Scadrial, it is difficult for Elend to fully trust anyone, but he has a very high level of confidence in Felt and gives him several important tasks.[4][14]
Familia Kholin
It is not clear how Felt came to know Dalinar, but by 1168, he was one of the Blackthorn's most trusted associates. Like Elend, Dalinar respects Felt and seeks his counsel despite Felt's relatively low social status.[1] Felt's skillset and personality have kept him close to Dalinar and his family, and he is considered a friend rather than just a subordinate. Adolin respects Felt in the same way that his father does.[6]
Curiosidades
- Felt is not "currently" part of the Seventeenth Shard.[10]
- Felt would still have an idea of how to get atium, but would probably not be able to pull it off.[17]
