Lord Ferson Penrod is the second king of the Central Dominance and a member of the Luthadel Assembly on Scadrial.
History
In the time before the Collapse he is a lesser noble in a minor house and is said to grovel before the like of Straff Venture at the parties every week, wishing to curry favour. He is describes as a traditionalist and politically conservative, yet never speaking negatively against the skaa.
When many other nobles leave Luthadel after the Lord Ruler's death, Penrod opted to stay and risk the possible danger, hoping to elevate his position. As such he was one of the more powerful noblemen remaining in Luthadel.
He succeeded Elend Venture as king, when the council votes to depose Elend. When Elend saves Luthadel from its siege and becomes emperor of the New Empire, he leaves Penrod in the position of King of the Central Dominance.
Ruin later takes control of Penrod, through a Hemalurgic spike harvested from a copper Misting. Marsh attacks Penrod and drives the spike through his heart. Since Penrod continues living, the surgeons feared removing it would kill him, so they leave it in place, giving Ruin a foothold into Penrods mind.
When Vin returns to Luthadel after the Siege of Fadrex City, she passes Keep Venture and finds a dead body, dressed in a nobleman's suit, lying on the floor and assumes that it was Penrods corpse.[citation needed]
Quotes
“Elend, lad, we all lived here during the Lord Ruler's reign. We all know what kind of man your father is. If he wants this city, he is going to take it. All we can decide, then, is how to best give up. Perhaps we can find a way for the people to retain some freedom under his rule.”
—Penrod on Straff Venture.[1]
