A pitiful, oft-reborn flesh-and-bone symbiote who drives the Dismemberment Limited and begs riders to save him from the Fleshers.
Levi the Seventh operates the Dismemberment Limited monorail on The Iron Tangle — a wretched symbiote of a Troll Flesher's loose skin over a reanimated hobgoblin skeleton, sentient only in combination. His quest triggers whenever crawlers board: hordes of Fleshers and the war mage Dismember surge from the rear cars to claim his bones, and riders must hold the barricade to save him. Six prior iterations have already died; each rebirth makes the next Levi stronger.
He weeps and despairs through the fight until Carl pops Dismember's head off, sparing him a seventh death.
A sickly, pale-green creature whose ill-fitting flesh hangs like a loose sheet over too-small bones; a drooping half-melted face, mouth-hole below the jawline, yellow bone showing through sagging eye sockets, clumps of black hair, an engineer's hat.
NPC operator of the Dismemberment Limited and the object of its rescue quest.
