'''Dockson''' is a member of [[Kelsier's crew]] on [[Scadrial]]. He performs as Kelsier's right-hand man and the two have been friends for a long time, working together to topple [[The Lord Ruler]]. Dockson is the only non-Allomancer amongst the crew.
Dockson has a squarish face, which Kelsier observes is well-suited to his moderately stocky build. He has black hair and sports a short half-beard, the Scadrian term for a goatee.{{wob ref|790}} Since he "first put forth whiskers some twenty years before," we can assume Dockson is middle-aged by the events of Mistborn. He often wears clothing of noble origin. Both Sazed and Vin feel noble suits fit him better than the others in the crew.{{book ref|mb1|2}}{{book ref|mb2|33}}
 
Dockson is responsible for keeping the crew operational, demonstrating aptitude for organization and administration.{{book ref|mb1|22}} Most often he tries to direct [[Kelsier]] and the others but allows himself to joke with the other members from time to time. He is quite diligent in his duties to ensure the crew has everything they need to remain functioning and is sometimes quite stern. Dockson's humor is quite dry and sarcastic, but he keeps it somewhat reserved.
 
Dockson's humor is quite dry and sarcastic, but he keeps it somewhat reserved. Thought this is likely how he deals with difficult situations. This can be seen in his sarcastic comments to Kelsier and in his dry comments, shortly after having seen how [[Vin]] was abused by [[Camon]].{{book ref|mb1|3}}
 
After Kelsier's death, however, his mirth vanishes.{{book ref|mb2|33}} He regrets the way he's become. He feels he is a man who has gotten what he wanted, but realizes he shouldn't have desired it so badly.{{wob ref|5370}} Despite this, his role as administrator never falters.{{book ref|mb2|33}}

=== Early Life ===
 
=== Vin ===
Dockson paid close attention to Vin while she was still in [[Camon]]'s crew after he tried to swindle [[Marsh]] and brought Vin.{{book ref|mb1|2}} Upon their first meeting, Dockson is kind to Vin and attempts to be gentle around her.{{book ref|mb1|3}} Once Vin becomes more comfortable with the rest of the crew and starts to trust them, Dockson begins to treat Vin with his regular dry humor and sarcasm. Initially Vin thought Dockson's view of the nobility was totoo hard, but after hearing Dockson story of his murdered love, [[Kareien]], she understands his feelings.{{book ref|mb1|22}}
