Totsin Jurth the Third

Totsin Jurth the Third was the senior member of the Synod of Stygg, a group of mages, witches, and warlocks opposed to the rule of the Lady in the Lands of Fist. He had a patchy goatee and grey brows, and wore old, much mended finery. When the Synod met, he attempted to organise the agenda.Stonewielder, Chapter 4, US HC p.181-185

Angered by the mockery and disrespect of his fellow Synod members, Totsin turned to their enemy the Lady and sought to eliminate the Synod. He reasoned that he could later create a new Synod with members that were compliant towards him. Totsin first killed Sister Nebras as she worked to protect Beneth, the spiritual leader of the Jourilan Army of Reform. The Reform Army's powerful weapon against the Lady died shortly after.Stonewielder, Chapter 7, US HC p.366-367/370
Next, he appeared in the camp of the Malazan 4th Army and tricked Brother Carfin into disappearing into the warren of Rashan. Afterwards, he sought to murder the Malazan High Mage Devaleth and the Adjunct Kyle, but was warded off by the timely interruption of Suth.Stonewielder, Chapter 8, US HC p.424-427
Brother Jool's reading of the Tiles puzzled him when it foresaw betrayal and death. He realized only too late that he had predicted his own murder when Totsin unleashed the power of the Lady upon him. As he collapsed into a pile of withered bones, Jool chided his killer, saying Totsin had been too hasty, the fortune was incomplete and he would never hear the rest of the fate that awaited them.Stonewielder, Chapter 9, US HC p.478-479
Totsin attempted to murder Ivanr, another of the Reform Army's leaders, but was interrupted by Sister Esa. Yet even Esa's transformation into her Soletaken was not enough to stop him. Ivanr wounded Totsin, but the Lady took possession of Esa and turned her against the Deliverer as her servant made his escape.Stonewielder, Chapter 10, US HC p.506-507
Finally, Totsin attempted to stop the efforts of Sister Gosh to break the chain guarding a fragment of the Lady on the Ring Wall. But his attack was interrupted by the returned Brother Carfin and Totsin was no match for their combined powers. They cast him off the island's cliff and into the waters of The Hole.Stonewielder, Chapter 12, US HC p.604-605
