| abstract | - Master Sergeant Braven Tooth was a grizzled, old soldier who trained many of the Malazan army's recruits. He was based at the Malaz City garrison. He was described as a huge man with wild unkempt curly black hair, a bushy black beard, bhederin-like eyebrows, and "hairy beyond reason". He was also known not to bathe very often. In the series he was said to have given pseudonyms (what he called their "real names") to many of the main characters, including Whiskeyjack, Trotts, Toes, Hedge, Mallet, Blend and Picker. But not Fiddler, who was named by Whiskeyjack. Fiddler also claimed to have named him "Braven Tooth" after the former allegedly left the young soldier with a tooth in his shoulder after a bar fight (which they later claim never happened).
