A big poster in Kevinswatch and you haven't gotten replacement books?! 8O

Btw, Bannor. He was like a talking Vain. Said so much even with just his presence.

Bannor questioned TC's behavior, not in words, but with caution that he took in regards to TC'sactions. On the other hand, Brinn was saved by TC from the clave, and that made Brinn more "human" by showing they had limitations. I will avoid the implications that come out in Runes, but take a look at the Haruchai in Runes, you'll knnow what I mean.
Overall, I'd have to say Brinn. Not just based on character, because we got to know him better, but Bannor did show that "holier than thou" behavior more than once, as Brinn just knew that serving TC and kicked ass at the same time. The thing that made me like Brinn better was the judgement he and Cail place on Linden on Starfare's Gem. THAT took guts, big time.
And now the haruchai really bother me in Runes.

Bannor hands down. I thoroughly believe that had Brinn ecountered Bannor in a contest of arms, Brinn would have found himself in deep "kimchee".

My mind is getting numb and dumb these days. Which chapter?

Wasnt the Bloodguard POV chapter from Korik's POV about the mission to Seareach? I'm pretty sure it wasnt Bannor in any case....

There's a small part from Bannor's POV when he rescues TC from the destruction of Earthroot. It's just a narrative and doesn't really delve into what Bannor is thinking or feeling. I don't remember any other Haruchai POV except the tales of the Mission.

Plus of course Gilden Fire which has quite a lot from the Bloodguard point of view!

Anyway maybe Brinn will come back in Last Chrons and may have his own chapter then!
