Malazan Wiki

Gower [GOW-er][1] was Lord of the Black Jheck of the Toblai Tundra.[2] In his human form, he was a huge, hairy and heavily bearded man with thick shoulders, a battered ugly face, thick lips, and shaggy brows,[3][4][5][6] but as a D'ivers he could veer into six enormous black wolves.[7][8] His wolves were heavy, hump-shouldered, and shaggy-haired with amber eyes.[9] He kept his feelings hidden behind cool, cunning eyes, unlike his more emotional counterpart, Casnock of the White Jheck.[10]

He had multiple wives, but no friends.[11]

Gower wore furs and a leather jerkin with weapons on his belt and harness. He also carried an obsidian knife known to the Jheck as the Black Blade.[12][6]
