Karesh

High Admiral Karesh was the lord of the Napan fleets and a member of the Napan Council of Elders during the reign of King Tarel.Kellanved's Reach, Chapter 5, US HC p.80-81 Like the other members of the council, Tarel considered him a foolish and servile crony--a "deluded pontificating fool who owed his rank, estate, and riches entirely to [the king's] patronage."
==In Kellanved's Reach==
After the failed Napan attempt to seize Malaz City and capture Sureth and the other Napan traitors, Karesh and the council met with King Tarel in his harbour fortress to consider their options. When Tarel announced that his sister planned to invade Napan, Admiral Karesh disagreed, saying the Malazan pirates were far from ready for such an action and were more likely focused on raiding the Quon Tali mainland for funds. Lord Kobay stood with Karesh, saying his agents on Malaz Island reported that the Malazans were doing just that.Kellanved's Reach, Chapter 5, US HC p.79-81
But King Tarel was certain Sureth was coming and they must be prepared. He suggested they remove her ally, Kellanved, by
exploiting the mage's rivalries with others of his kind. He introduced the startled council to the Witch Witch Jadeen, the terror of south Itko Kan, who promised to confront their enemy.Kellanved's Reach, Chapter 5, US HC p.80-82
