Character from Malazan Book of the Fallen by Steven Erikson
King's Champion of Lether and the finest swordsman in the kingdom — Tehol's younger brother, a man of duty and honor in a corrupt empire.
Brys Beddict is everything his brother Tehol is not — disciplined, conventional, and devoted to institutional duty. As the King's Champion he stood as Lether's greatest fighter, bound to defend a throne he knew was corrupt. His duel against Rhulad Sengar was a masterwork of swordsmanship. After death and resurrection, Brys returned changed — still honorable, but with a broader perspective gained from having been beyond the veil. He serves as the military backbone of Tehol's reign.
Handsome, clean-shaven, with fair hair and a soldier's build. Wears the formal armor of the King's Champion with practiced ease. Every movement is precise, controlled, martial.
