'''Havarseth''', better known as '''Bluefingers'''{{book ref|warbreaker|6}}, is a [[Pahn Kahl]] servant to the [[God King]]'s palace on [[Nalthis]]. He is an instrumental player in the [[Pahn Kahl rebellion]].
== Appearance & Personality ==
He is described as an older man in brown robes who is balding and has a round, pleasant face. His nickname was earned by the fact that his fingers seem perpetually stained with blue ink. He often carries around a ledger.{{book ref|wb|6}}
Bluefingers is knowledgeable about many things, including Idrian culture and the [[Royal Locks]].
== History ==
During his time in the palace he serves as head scribe and steward, rather than a priest, due to his lack of faith in the [[Returned]].
In addition to that duty, he provides a measure of guidance to [[Siri]] while she is in the God King's palace. For example, he lays out all the rules for her behavior and her interactions with the God King soon after she arrives in [[Hallandren]], and meets her outside the God King's room to give her guidance about how to act.
Eventually it is revealed that he betrayed Siri, hoping to help secure independence for his people by leading her and Susebron into a trap, while the palace was in military turmoil.

|My name is Havarseth, but everyone just calls me Bluefingers. I am head scribe and steward to His Excellent Grace Susebron, God King of Hallandren. In simpler terms, I manage the palace attendants and oversee all servants in the Court of Gods.

{{quote
|As close as any servant considered unholy. I'm not allowed to touch him or speak to him. But, Princess, I've served him all my life. He's not my god, but he's something better. I think these priests look upon their gods as placeholders. It doesn't really matter to them who is holding the station. Me, I've served His Majesty for my entire life. I was hired by the palace as a lad and I remember Susebron's childhood. I cleaned his quarters. He's not my god, but he is my liege. And now these priests are planning to kill him.
