== History ==
=== Pre Rebellion ===
Little is known of Denth's life before he shows up in [[Hallandren]]. Denth was originally known as VaraTreledees and was a scholar before the [[Manywar]].
Some time after the Manywar he took the name Denth and created a mercenary band with [[Tonk Fah]], [[Jewels]], and [[Arsteel]]. At some point Arsteel encountered Vasher and was killed by him. Denth took this opportunity to see how a dead Returned works as a [[Lifeless]], and they renamed him [[Clod]].
Denth has also spent time on the planet [[Roshar]], though when and for what purpose remains unclear.{{wob ref|1511}}
=== [[Pahn Kahl rebellion]] ===
Denth conspires with the [[Pahn Kahl]] rebels to overthrow the [[God King]]'s parliament. Denth and his band infiltrate the [[Idrian]] spy network to kidnap [[Vivenna]]. Acting as mercenaries working for [[Lemex]] they befriended Vivenna after they poisoned Lemex and made it look like he died of illness. Denth uses Vivenna to increase tensions between [[Hallandren]] and [[Idris]] to drive [[Hallandren]] to war. Later, after [[Vivenna]] is kidnapped by [[Vasher]], Denth and [[Tonk Fah]] torture and kill [[Parlin]], [[Vivenna]]'s friend to try and discover where she has gone. When Vivenna escapes from Vasher and returns to the safe house she uncovers the truth about Denth and [[Tonk Fah]] and Denth is attacked by [[Clod]] on [[Vivenna]]'s command and then she escapes. Denth catches [[Vasher]] while he is attemping to
=== Death ===
During the Pahn Kahl Rebellion, Denth fights a duel with Vasher to prove that Vasher is not a better swordsman than [[Arsteel]], and to find out how he won. Denth's fight with Vasher reveals that Denth is the better swordsman, however Vasher is more cunning. Vasher gives his [[Breath]]s to Denth, effectively stunning him for a moment and Vasher runs him through with his dagger. As Denth dies, his hair flashes between colors, eventually falling to stark white. This reveals that Denth has the [[Royal Locks]], independent from being a [[Returned]].{{wob ref|4112}}
