The Falda is a particular papal vestment which forms a long skirt extending beneath the hem of the alb. When it is worn, the skirts of the falda are so long that the pope needs train-bearers both in front and in back whenever he walks. This form of vestment has its origins in the 15th century and earlier. It is initially made of cream coloured silk and worn over the alb and under the chasuble or cope. It can be used in papal funerals where it was draped over the Papal body when it was in state.

- Falda was a common-born woman in the third century of the Human Era and a resident of Port Caynn. She was described as being "large", being taller than Goodwin, and "blowsy". Falda had obivously helped Vorna to look for her missing child, but with no success. She was a suspicious woman, who questioned Clara Goodwin and Rebakah Cooper's identities as guardswomen, claiming that she knew all of the Tradesmen's kennel's Dogs and that they didn't belong there. However, she finally relented after Goodwin told her that they really were Dogs and that they--in contrast to the local Dogs--wanted to help finding the child. Falda only appears as a minor character in Bloodhound.
