"Witness!!!" -K.Orlong

Karsa Orlong from the malazan book of the fallen.

One of the pivotal characters in the genabackis/daruhjhistan arc of the books. Karsa is a Teblor, a race of giants that live on the far northern mountains of genabackis. He is an epic character quoted often for his brilliant oneliners and his inate ability to shout witness... as he proceeds to obliterate all manner of strange and impossible things.

res: 1280x1024

Karso orlong is the creation of Steven Erikson and Ian C. Esselmont. all rights to the character belong to them.

I've just started re-reading the series and I'm looking forward to getting to House of chains and reading about this badass again.

Very good. One of my favorite chars from the book because of this: Picker says, "You have to kill a god?" expecting him to run away screaming or something. Karsa answers, "Which one?" :D Brilliant. Picture too.

karsa is the man, of this there is no doubt. I thought he'd take care of icarium on lether to be honest. Technically he already did.
