Edgewalker was an Elder God and an ancient inhabitant of the Shadow realm. He was often mistaken for a T'lan Imass as his appearance was essentially that of a desiccated corpse. His origins were unknown, only that he had existed for a long time. Telorast and Curdle had mentioned that they are in his "employ".
Appearance:
-Tatters of rotted sinew and strips of skin were motionless upon the bones of temple, cheek and jaw. He spoke in a broken, rasping voice. Strands of hair dangling and drifting. Wore rotted moccasins. Eyes were withered dark.
-Twisted right leg, wore tattered remains of what might have once been thick cloth over armour of leather and scale. Naked arms, desiccated and cured to little more than leather-clad bones. Wore a bronze and verdigrised helm. Face disclosed only empty pits, nose a gaping cavern, lips dried and withdrawn from carried teeth. Rust-bitten sword by his side[1]
In The Crippled God
Edgewalker and Cotillion discussed 'failure' in the opening scene. Cotillion thought of Edgewalker as 'the deathless guardian'.[2]
In another meeting Cotillion asked Edgwalker how he felt when everything he held fell to pieces in his hands. "Did failure arrive like a wall of fire?" Cotillion then observed that Edgewalker's tatters have the look of scorching.[3]
Quotes
- Cotillion: "We need allies, Edgewalker, and we need them now."
- Edgewalker: "You have just walked away from three such allies—"
- Cotillion: "Allies who won’t rip our heads off once the threat’s been negated."
- Edgewalker: "Ah, there is that..."
- ―Cotillion and Edgewalker, walking through the Shadow realm[src]
