▲He is described as an older man in brown robes who was balding and had a round, pleasant face. His nickname was earned by the fact that his fingers seemed perpetually stained with blue ink. {{ref|b|wb|c|6}}

▲During his time in the palace he served as head scribe and steward, rather than a priest due to his lack of faith in the [[Returned]]. {{ref|b|wb|c|15}}

▲In addition to that duty, he provided a measure of guidance to [[Siri]] while she was in the God King's palace. He warned her of the dangers of bearing the God King and heir and evoked suspicions within her, which eventually drove a wedge between her and the priests {{ref|b|wb|c|20}}. For he knew that if a new God King was elected he and the other Pahn Kahl servants would be dismissed from the ranks they had worked so hard to earn, causing them lose all the power they had gained. Siri makes a deal with him that promises she will protect the Pahn Kahl servants if he swore to try and get her and the God King out of the palace if the priests chose to move against them. {{ref|b|wb|c|34}}

▲Eventually it turns out that he had betrayed Siri, having hoped to help secure independence for his people by leading her and Susebron into a trap, while the palace was in military turmoil. {{ref|b|wb|c|54}} Bluefingers, having been teamed up with [[Lifeless]], then captures the couple and uses them in his plans to wreck havoc between Idris and Hallandren. He imprisons Susebron and planned on killing Siri. {{ref|b|wb|c|55}}

▲{{quote|As close as any servant considered unholy. I’m not allowed to touch him or speak to him. But, Princess, I’ve served him all my life. He’s not my god, but he’s something better. I think these priests look upon their gods as placeholders. It doesn’t really matter to them who is holding the station. Me, I’ve served His Majesty for my entire life. I was hired by the palace as a lad and I remember Susebron’s childhood. I cleaned his quarters. He’s not my god, but he is my liege.
