From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Demmin Nass is a fictional character in the Sword of Truth series by Terry Goodkind.

[edit] Description

Demmin Nass was the right hand of Darken Rahl, the lightning of the Master's dark thoughts, a good friend of his since they were boys, and a man as big as any in D'Hara. He had sharply chiseled muscles and his chest was covered with skin as smooth as that of the young boys he had a weakness for. In stark contrast, his face was riddled with pockmarks. His blond hair was cropped close enough to cause it to stand up in a collection of spikes. A streak of black hair started in the middle of his right eyebrow and continued back over his head, to the right of center, which made him recognizable from a distance, a fact appreciated by those who had cause to know of him. His voice was deep and coarse. He had a very sick interest in little boys.

The weakness for young boys Demmin Nass had would occasionally get him into trouble, such as when he had the trader Brophy arrested for the murder of a young boy (Rachel's brother), but who submitted to a Confessor to prove his innocence. Demmin Nass was castrated and killed at the hands of Kahlan Amnell after he revealed to her the apparent death of Richard, invoking the Con Dar.
