The hammerhead shark who yearns to hop: Katia designs his spider legs and Rosetta's crafters fit him with Velma, Tserendolgor's flamethrower; the nuke's pulse wrecks his fifth set ('Such woe I have!'). One of the few NPCs who stays with the Posse.

Through book 7
A giant air-breathing hammerhead, once Signet's tattoo, who has broken three legged harnesses by hopping (B7 ch. 15); he berserks with a skunk wizard in his mouth (B7 ch. 15), rolls down a hill legless and comes up with a mercenary (B7 ch. 31), and arrives at the Madness castle on Katia's spider legs with Velma the flamethrower on his belly: 'A most unexpected development' (B7 ch. 65). He flames honeycombs like a wasp in a hive (B7 ch. 80) and flops home on ruined legs — the fifth set, 'Such woe I have!' (B7 ch. 81). One of the few NPCs who stays (B7 ch. 86).
