Carrot Ironfoundersson Guide, Meaning , Facts, Information and Description
Carrot Ironfoundersson is a corporal in, and later captain of, the Ankh-Morpork City Watch, of Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels. As the brief Discworld companion states:
- "Carrot Ironfoundersson is Captain of the Ankh-Morkpork City watch police force. Bulging with muscles, this six-foot-six-inch dwarf (adopted) remains honest, good-natured, and honorable despite the city's best efforts. Carrot may be the true heir to Ankh-Morpork's throne (a subject filed under "I wouldn't ask if I were you")."
Carrot joined the Night Watch while it was still only a small group of miscreants running from evildoers rather than trying to subdue them (see Guards! Guards).
Captain Carrot has made quite a name for himself, making sure he knows everything and everyone in the city by name and tax papers. He's big on paperwork and organization and always (often to the dismay of his 'lady-friend', Corporal Angua Von Uberwald) sees all sides of a story before plowing into it wholeheartedly.
Carrot is often thought of as simple and unthreatening, which is a very dangerous conclusion to come to if you are the unlucky person who disappoints this boy's honest nature. Truly, Carrot's simplicity is his cunning. He is not quick to jump to conclusions and doesn't like to disappoint those that he cares for.
When Sam Vimes planned to retire after his marriage to Lady Sybil Ramkin, Carrot was made his successor to the position of Captain of the City Watch. He's not that skilled in comma placement and has a bit of trouble with the whole concept of "'i' before 'e'", but other than that, this simple-minded six foot tall dwarf is as much of a 'man of the city' as you'll ever hope to find.
