Birith'erah

Birith'erah was a member of the mage cadre of one of the Holy Protectors in Seven Cities whose Warren was Serc and who could call storms down from the sky.Memories of Ice, Chapter 8, UK MMPB p.359
During a rebellion which had originated in Aren, the unnamed city had been besieged by Malazan forces. After the Protector was struck down by Dassem Ultor, the mage cabal fled into the Pan'potsun Waste and on into the Holy Desert, Raraku. They were pursued by a cobbled together collection of Malazan forces under the command of Whiskeyjack and guided by a local new recruit of the Claw named Kalam Mekhar. This chase became the event which forged Whiskeyjack's soldiers into the elite Bridgeburner company, so called, because the holy desert was said to have burned the bridges to their pasts.Memories of Ice, Chapter 8, UK MMPB p.355-362
During the pursuit, one by one, eleven of the mages in the cabal died and shifted their souls into the fittest of them, Quick Ben, and in the end only he remained. Birith'erah was the tenth to succumb to the strains of the pursuit.
