Personal secretary to Lord Havelock Vetinari, the Patrician of Ankh-Morpork, Drumknott keeps his boss informed of activities in the city and in Discworld as a whole. He is apparently stabbed by Vetinari and sent to the dungeon to recover. Thanks to William de Worde and the Ankh-Morpork Times, it is revealed later that Mr. Pin and Mr. Tulip on contract form the Committee to Unelect the Patrician have brought in a look-alike in order to get Vetinari deposed. In the course of discovering the truth, William decides that Drumknott lacks a personality.
