Korbal Broach was a necromancer and the silent partner of Bauchelain. The duo were known as the Nehemoth. He was a eunuch and a Soletaken, able to shapeshift into the form of a crow. Emancipor Reese acted as manservant to both. Possibly due to the fact that he was a eunuch, he was obsessed with "procreating", in his own way. He hunted at night and collected various organs and souls from his victims, piecing them together to form a patchwork "child", which he kept for the most part in a locked chest.
