Rafalljara Undath'al Brunn

Rafalljara Undath'al Brunn, known as Rafall, was a Hengan master thief in Urquart's gang in the city of Li Heng prior to city's conquest by the Malazan Empire.Dancer's Lament, Dramatis Personae Gremain was his long-time lieutenant.Dancer's Lament, Chapter 8, US HC p.165 In addition to organising pickpockets, whores, thieves, fencers, and muggers, he ran an above-board import business that was bleeding money. All of his "business" activities barely kept him afloat.
He was short and very wide about the middle with thick rounded shoulders and a full oiled beard. He wore a wide leather belt with trousers of fine buff leather. His fingers and earlobes were studded with rings.Dancer's Lament, Chapter 1, US HC p.17Dancer's Lament, Chapter 8, US HC p.166 
He had a second-storey office and rooms overlooking the cloth market square in the city's Outer Round. His headquarters was purposefully designed to be nearly impossible to access from without. The only entrance was through a guarded ladder leading to a trapdoor in his floor.Dancer's Lament, Chapter 1, US HC p.23 A loaded Crossbow was kept mounted under his desk.Dancer's Lament, Chapter 1, US HC p.24
==In Dancer's Lament==
Rafall met Dorin Rav soon after the young assassin arrived in Li Heng. He deceived Dorin, making him enter a alley where his gang was waiting to rob from him, realizing that Dorin was an assassin. They left him unconscious and Rafall feared that the assassin could come seeking revenge. Dorin came back to Rafall's headquarters to recover his things.Dancer's Lament, Chapter 1He spared Rafall's life and asked him for help finding an assassin job in the city, to which Rafall answered that there were no such jobs as the Protectress forbade it.
Later, Dorin approached Rafall again with an offer for Urquart to eliminate rival gang leader, Pung. Rafall refused as it was too much of a risk because it could lead to a war where the city mages would take all of the gangs down.Dancer's Lament, Chapter 4
While Dorin was working in Pung's gang, he received a task to kill Rafall, but he had grown fond of the thief and did not want to do it. So Dorin and Rafall faked Rafall's death and the thief ran away from Li Heng aboard a refugee ship downriver on the Idryn. The refugees were captured by Kanese soldiers who announced they were now subjects of King Chulalorn the Third before brutally stripping him of his jewelry. A dejected Rafall began the long walk to Cawn.Dancer's Lament, Chapter 7Dancer's Lament, Chapter 8, US HC 163-166
