Miles Dagouter, better known as Miles Hundredlives, is a human man whose presence in the Mistborn series is felt chiefly through echoes and memory rather than direct action. In Shadows of Self he is referenced as a figure from the past, and by The Lost Metal his legacy has narrowed to his cryptic dying words: a rant about 'men of gold and red.' That final outburst, once easy to dismiss, gains ominous weight as it resonates with the Cycle and the larger cosmic forces at work, turning a minor figure into an enigmatic harbinger.
Description
A human man; no physical features are described in the supplied text. No physical details are given for Miles beyond that he is an adult man. His height, build, skin tone, hair, eyes, facial features, clothing, and distinguishing marks are unspecified. A faithful visual depiction should therefore leave those traits undetermined. A human man known as Miles Hundredlives, shown without distinctive physical details established by the text. Present him in understated clothing suited to the industrial-era world of the story, with a composed, grave expression that suggests a man speaking as he dies; avoid prominent scars, unusual coloring, or other unsupported features.
