Cladent[1] (aka Clubs) is a skaa Misting from the Final Empire on Scadrial.[2]
Clubs is described as having a gnarled face with an unhappy expression, similar to a piece of knotted wood. Although he appears to be older than Breeze, he still seems to be physically fit. He usually displays a grim and pessimistic demeanor, regarding those around him with disapproval.[2]
Before joining Kelsier's crew Clubs claims that he was a military man with some command. He is a Smoker. He is also a successful carpenter and employs several apprentices, some of whom are also Smokers.[3] Like most Smokers, he is tasked with maintaining a coppercloud around his shop to protect those inside from prying Seekers. After the Lord Ruler is defeated, Elend appoints Clubs as the general of his armies.[4]
Before the Battle of Luthadel, Sazed tries to teach him about the religion of Dadradah, which focuses on art and craftsmanship. Sazed remarks that the care that Clubs devoted to his carpentry shows 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.[5]
He dies during the Battle of Luthadel, killed by a koloss while saving his friend and fellow crew member, Breeze.[6] Later on, Sazed finds the wooden disk that he gave Clubs tied to the man's corpse.[7]
