Druz Thennict

Druz Thennict, a 'Debt-holder' based in Letheras, was an important member of the Letherii merchant financial community.Midnight Tides, Chapter 10, US TPB p.256 He had a long, thin neck upon which his head appeared to bob.
==In Midnight Tides==
Druz Thennict was one of the localMidnight Tides, Chapter 12, US TPB p.293-294 names that Tehol Beddict gave to his confederates (Shand, Rissarh and Hejun) along with instructions that they were to start buying shares in Druz Thennict's business with the goal of accumulating a controlling interest in it. This would then allow, at just the right time, a 'hostile' take-over of his enterprise.Midnight Tides, Chapter 10, US TPB p.256-257
==In Reaper's Gale==
Druz Thennict, by now a member of the Liberty Consign of Merchants specialising in financial matters, was considered no fool by the Master of the Consign, Rautos Hivanar. Thus Hivanar took Druz's concerns about Lether's increasing shortage of coins very seriously. If allowed to continue, the shortage would have a drastic effect on the general Letherii economy.Reaper's Gale, Chapter 1, US TPB p.47-48 The Consign was unaware that the shortage was a direct result of Tehol Beddict's latest plot.
The empire's supply of hard coin, silver, gold, cut gems, and copper bars rapidly approached a critically low level, causing Druz Thennict and the other major Consign financiers--Barrakta Ilk, Horul Rinnesict, and Uster Taran--to become fearful and anxious. They attended a meeting with Rautos Hivanar to receive an update about the worsening financial situation and to discuss what measures were being made, or could be taken, to ease the impending financial crisis. When Hivanar revealed an unknown saboteur was responsible for the crisis, Druz demanded to know why they had not yet caught the bastard. Hivanar's report of clandestine warfare between the Patriotists and the Tiste Edur caused Druz to question whether it was time for the Consign to distance themselves from their Patriotist allies.Reaper's Gale, Chapter 9, US TPB p.247-248
