“The Lord Ruler is going to get me sooner or later. At least this way I get to spit in his face as I go. Overthrowing the Final Empire? It’s got style. ”

—Clubs to Dockson

Cladent is a skaa Misting from the Final Empire on Scadrial. He is a member of Kelsier's thieving crew and goes by the nickname Clubs.

Appearance and Personality

Clubs is generally a surly individual who often displays a grim and pessimistic demeanor. He has a gnarled face that's often compared to a piece of knotted wood. Upon first meeting others, he can come across hostile and untrusting. Although he appears to be older than Breeze, he is still physically fit. In spite of this, he walks with a limping gait. The source of which is a long twisting scar that runs up his calf and thigh, which he received during a skirmish while in the employ of the Lord Ruler He generally regards those around him with disapproval, but viewed as loyal and trustworthy by Kelsier. He fiercely distrusts Soothers and Rioters due to their ability to manipulate peoples emotions. Even though he is immune to their allomancy, he stills see's both mistings as manipulative. However, he later comes to enjoy being around Breeze, to the point of drinking with him every night.

To those that know him very well, Clubs is a man of rare understanding and humor. When he smiles, it has a decidedly twisted look on his face.

“And don't smile at me...I hate that. ”

—Clubs to Kelsier

Attributes and Abilities

Allomancy

Being a Misting, Clubs is only capable of burning one of the Allomantic metals. He Snapped during his time in the the Lord Ruler's army, in his last fight, where he wounded and then discharged. After snapping, Clubs discovered he was capable of burning copper. As a Smoker, Clubs is able to create a coppercloud around him that blocks the bronze sense of Seekers and Mistborn. This ability extends beyond himself, and allows others to use allomancy near him, without being discovered. Burning copper will also make him immune to any emotional allomancy.

Military Prowess

For nearly a year, Clubs acts as the general for Elend's military forces, and he is Kelsiers chosen team member to lead the assault against the Lord Ruler's palace. Clubs gained this military prowess and leadership during his time in the Lord Rulers army as an officer. It is unclear how many soldiers he led during his time, or how long he served there, but he has quite the knack for leading large groups of fighters.

History

Early Life

Prior to joining Kelsier's crew Clubs worked as a master carpenter and was a Skaa merchant in Luthadel. His woodworking shop, which also operated base of operations and hideout for Kelsier's crew was known as a prominent Skaa Craftsman's shop. Before this, Cladent worked as a soldier in the Lord Ruler’s army with some command. During his time fighting in the southeast, he Snapped, becoming a Smoker. After being injured and discharged, Clubs joined the underground. Once he opened up his shop, he employed several apprentice carpenters. At some point in the past he 'adopted' his nephew Spook after Spooks parents discovered he was a Misting and planned to have him killed.

The Skaa Rebellion

Kelsier's Crew

Once Kelsier's crew used Club's shop as a secret base of operations in Luthadel, he was tasked with maintaining a coppercloud around his shop to protect those inside from prying Seekers. He also serves as host for the crew, offering them a place to sleep, eat and bathe as needed. While essential to the crew, Clubs rarely leaves the shop as he is the crews primary Smoker, though he also employs many assistant carpenters who are also Smokers.

the Skaa Riots & Death of the Lord Ruler

After Kelsier has been killed and the skaa begin to riot and fight back in his name, it is revealed by Renoux that Clubs was Kelsiers chosen crew member to lead the skaa in their direct attack on Kredik Shaw. After the Lord Ruler was defeated, Elend appointed Clubs as the general of his armies.

Clubs was not known to be a religious man, and so he disliked Captain Demoux preaching the Church of the Survivor to his troops. Although Clubs came to befriend Breeze. The two often spent time in the evenings conversing and drinking at Keep Venture.

Before the Battle of Luthadel, Sazed tried to teach him about the religion of Dadradah, which focuses on art and craftsmanship. Sazed remarked that the care that Clubs devoted to his carpentry showed his true passion to be art, not warfare. As a token of the Dadradah faith, he also gives Clubs a small wooden disk carved with the image of a brush.

He died during the Battle of Luthadel, killed by a koloss while saving Breeze. Later on, Sazed found the wooden disk that he gave Clubs tied to the man's corpse.

Trivia
