History
Guard at Kredik Shaw
Goradel joined the Lord Ruler's army because of the lack of he held as a common worker. When Vin infiltrated Kredik Shaw on the night of the Collapse Goradel was on guard outside. Vin could easily have killed him and the other guards, but convinced them to join the rebellion. Goradel was the first of them to rip of his insignia and leave Kredik Shaw.[3]
Somehow Goradel managed to find Dockson in the chaos of the Collapse, and tells him that Vin is captured by an Inquisitor. Then Elend Venture is brought in, and he and Goradel team up to rescue Vin out of Kredik Shaw.[4]
Goradel leads Elend and five of the latter's soldiers into the dungeons of Kredik Shaw, where they encounter Vin and Sazed who have already broken free but are surrounded by at least twenty enemy guards. Goradel, Elend and his soldiers start attacking the guards to distract them from Vin and Sazed, but Vin finds a last flagon with metals and deals with the guards in a matter of seconds.[4]
Siege of Luthadel
During the Siege of Luthadel Goradel was part of the scout squad for undermining activities in Elend's army. He voluntarily answered Elend's call to help keeping the skaa in Luthadel warm. He comes to report to Elend and Demoux that all of the furniture in abandoned houses is already removed, but that most roofs and inner walls of these buildings are also constructed of wood and can be demolished to burn.[2]
