Murk is a spindly Alethi bridgeman assigned to the deathpoint position during a bridge assault. He is struck by four or five arrows and killed; the text gives no further history or relationships.

Description

Murk is a spindly male Alethi bridgeman, with a lean, narrow build suited to the hard labor of a bridge crew. The text gives no description of his skin tone, hair, eyes, facial features, or age. His clothing is not specified beyond his role as a bridgeman, so it should remain practical and unadorned rather than distinctive. He has a slight, exposed presence among the crew.
