Also known as the '''Citizen''', Quellion is in charge of [[Urteau]] after the death of the [[Lord Ruler]]. [[Spook]] is sent by [[Elend]] and [[Vin]] to gain intelligence on the Citizen.{{book ref|mb3|14}} As a government officer in the city of Urteau, he wears red-dyed skaa trousers and work shirts.{{book ref|mb3|16}}
 
Both Quellion and his sister [[Beldre[[]] were half-skaa.This is due to the fact that their noble father had married a noble woman who was barren.As she could not conceive children of her own she instead agreed that Quellions father could father his children with a [[Skaa]] maidservant.This was discovered by [[Obligator|Obligators]] around the same time that the [[Lord Ruler]] was killed by [[Vin]] and due to the chaos surrounding the event, the two half-skaa managed to slip away from their execution.{{book ref|mb3|53}}
 
While holding power in [[Urteau]], he would take the families of allomancers as hostages and keep them as leverage, thus forcing them to work for him as his soldiers by threatening their families, although this was kept highly confidential.He would organise his public executions to take place in noble houses which had secret escape routes, so that the chosen allomancers could escape the fire and join his ranks.{{book ref|mb3|41}} He also keeps the peace by allowing his people the freedom to spend their nights drinking fine wine, which would normally have cost a small fortune in gold, for the price of a fraction of a copper clip.{{book ref|mb3|26}}
