Dockson
The loyal administrator of Kelsier's crew, close to the Survivor.
Dockson or "Dox" is a member of Kelsier's crew, in charge of operations and administration for the crew and Luthadel. He was a close friend of Kelsier, but not his closest—that was Kelsier's brother Marsh. He is one of the few non-Allomancers in the crew (alongside Clubs). His role is pivotal in the rebellion, handling the practical logistics that keep the crew functioning.

Lore & Background
Dockson, known as Dox, serves as the operations and administration chief for Kelsier's crew and later for Luthadel. His bond with Kelsier is strong, but Kelsier's closest friend was his brother Marsh. During the events of The Well of Ascension, Dockson remains in Luthadel, working with the crew to protect the city. His death occurs when the koloss army attacks Luthadel; he is killed alongside Tindwyl during the assault (Clubs had died earlier in the siege). Vin returns to save Sazed and most civilians, but Dockson does not survive.
Reader's Guide
Dockson is a key member of Kelsier's crew, responsible for operations and administration. Unlike most of his comrades, he is not an Allomancer, which makes his role purely strategic and logistical. He is the closest to Kelsier, serving as the crew's organizer and planner. In The Well of Ascension, Dockson continues to manage affairs in Luthadel after the Lord Ruler's fall. He participates in schemes to get Elend and Vin out of the city before it falls to the koloss army. Tragically, during the koloss attack on Luthadel, Dockson is killed alongside Tindwyl and Clubs, despite Vin's efforts to save the city's civilians.
