Apsal'ara, also known as Apsalar was an Ascendant revered by the thieves of Darujhistan as the Lady of Thieves. [1]
History
She was an Imass[2] (or very nearly Imass)[3] slain by Anomander Rake using Dragnipur after she had tried to stab the Tiste Andii lord in the back. The altercation had occurred in Moon's Spawn long before the series began.
In Toll the Hounds
She appears in Dragnipur lying on the wheels of the wagon, the closest of all to escaping her chains. She manages to shatter the chains by pushing them close to the Gate of Darkness. Rake on his one day in Dragnipur set her free.
In The Crippled God
She went to Anomander Rake's son Nimander, the now leader of the Tiste Andii, seeking answers, joining Nimander's personal staff. She later became his lover. She fought at the breach at Lightfall alongside Withal. She was seen flirting with Kalam Mekhar after the last battle.
Trivia
Sorry took the name Apsalar after Crokus Younghand told her about the Lady of Thieves.
