Powrie are hard to understand at the best of times, but only the Jester's closest have a handle on Timmy Threegrins' pronouncements. Extensively tortured after a failed assassination attempt, the powrie's resoloutely sealed lips were removed, as were large portions of his cheeks: once as vicious as any street goblin going, now he's quite literally all smiles.

Still quite nimble with the knives despite his badly-healed and missing fingers, "Timmy" acts as the Jester's co-acrobat and attack dog. He has bonded in an unlikely fashion with Gisella, the gang's newest addition and the cause of their being chased into the Belly by an enraged House Dythanus, since both suffer severely from their difficulties in eating and drinking.
