Ber'ok

Ber'ok, whose name meant 'Dead Ash Tree', was one of a group of seven broken T'lan Imass also known as The Unbound. He was one of the Teblor's gods known as "The Seven Faces in the Rock". The Teblor called him 'Beroke Soft Voice'.House of Chains, Chapter 1, UK MMPB p.36/37 He was so-called because his voice sounded like "a rough rasp through a crushed throat". He was described as having a twisted neck with his head leaning to one side. To look straight ahead, he was forced to turn his entire body.
==In House of Chains==
Ber'ok and the other Unbound swore fealty to the Crippled God in return for breaking their Vow and gaining limited freedom.House of Chains, Chapter 1, US SFBC p.34 He and the others cultivated the young Teblor warrior, Karsa Orlong, to retrieve their lost weapons, which would sever Tellann and grant them their full freedom.House of Chains, Chapter 1, US SFBC p.34House of Chains, Chapter 16, US SFBC p.566House of Chains, Chapter 17, US SFBC p.571
Following Karsa into the Nascent, Ber'ok scattered Otataral dust inside the cabin of the Silanda to prevent the ship's captain's open Warren from becoming a wound.House of Chains, Chapter 3, US SFBC p.177
Ber'ok also appeared before Felisin Younger in Karsa's glade as she recovered from her mutilation. Sensing her anger and horror over her condition, he offered to help her achieve vengeance against Bidithal, who competed with their master for control of the Raraku warren fragment. The god told the skeptical girl that she need only serve the Seven for the Seven to aid her.House of Chains, Chapter 13, US SFBC p.497-499
Once Karsa found and returned their weapons, Ber'ok and the Unbound were freed. But the warrior then cut down Sin'b'alle, claimed her foundlings, and ordered the remaining six to abandon the Teblor.House of Chains, Chapter 17, US SFBC p.571-575 The Unbound departed, determined to help the Tiste Edur and their master claim the First Throne and control of the T'lan Imass.House of Chains, Chapter 20, US SFBC p.658
