Enguf the Broad was a Genabackan pirate, who claimed he was a privateer certified in Elingarth in the Confederacy of Free Cities. He was wary of laws and contracts and preferred to back deals with his word, and he was not afraid to knock heads together to enforce his orders.[1][2]
Enguf was squat, barrel-shaped man with a shaggy head of flame colored hair, bushy eyebrows, and a greying russet colored beard.[3][4]
In Assail
Enguf brought twenty swordsmen to Assail to participate in the gold rush there. Arriving in Holly on the Bone Peninsula, he quickly made an alliance to combine forces with Marshal Teal and Malle of Gris as well as the bard, Fisher kel Tath.[5] When Jethiss offered to sacrifice himself to Yrkki the bonewright to save one-third of Enguf's men on the road north, Enguf tearfully embraced and thanked him.[6]
At Mantle their alliance became the core of the outlander army besieging the town. Enguf and his men organized the Mantle 'Navy' until Cartheron Crust arrived with his flotilla to overwhelm it. Enguf quickly changed sides.[7] During the evacuation of Mantle, Enguf assumed responsibility for Timmel Orosenn's vessel the Supplicant. He auctioned off berths in the ship to the highest bidder, finally making a profit on the expedition.[8]
