History

Much is unknown about Clamps' early life, prior to his involvement with the Vanishers. At some point, as a sign of his devotion to the Survivor, Clamps was intentionally scarred along his arms.[4]

As a member of the Vanishers, Clamps served as third in command of the gang, behind Miles and Tarson.[1] Clamps' primary duty among the Vanishers was handling recruitment of new members, which he trained and managed in a foundry in Longard.[5] Clamps recruited all of Miles' men. Clamps accompanied Miles and the Vanishers to the Yomen-Ostlin wedding dinner.[2] He told Miles that the men he recruited were itching to use the guns they had been given on the dinner guests. After High Lord Waxillium Ladrian and Wayne defeated the Vanishers in a gunfight at the dinner, several of the men Clamps had recruited were captured.[5] One of the captured men, Sindren, and several others were later tricked by Wayne into confirming that they had been recruited by Clamps.

Clamps and the other Vanishers left the foundry, and Clamps placed a series of explosive traps to try to kill Waxillium Ladrian and Wayne, which he promised Miles would be successful.[1] Clamps then continued to recruit more men to replace those killed and captured during the wedding raid. He also accompanied Miles to a meeting with Edwarn Ladrian, but did not participate or observe the conversation. Clamps watched over the men as they prepared for their raid on the Breaknaught.[3] He accompanied the Vanishers on their raid on the car and then returned with them to their lair beneath the Ironspine Building.[4]

Clamps' ultimate fate is so far unknown, it is not certain whether he was killed in the gunfight below the Ironspine Building, captured by the constables, or if he escaped from justice.
