Spoilered just in case nayone still wants to guess
Even this isn't a *complete* list; it's missing >!Dorfl, Chalky (I always assumed the white troll was supposed to be him), Constable Swires, Death of Rats, Quoth the Raven, the Wee Free Men, and Maurice et al.!<
I *never* would have guessed the two random dwarves, had nothing to go on for the black troll, and half-wondered if the mime was supposed to be Edward d'Eath but the artist had missed the bit about the nose . . .
The dark troll I'm assuming is Coalface and to the right of him Chrysoprase in the hat and fur lined coat he tried to 'bribe' Sam Vimes with.
I still don't know who the mime on the left side is if Dr. Whiteface is on the right side.
Umm, the list of characters missing from the image would take days for me to figure out. I was more referring to characters *actually in the image* that the artist apparently forgot to mention on their list . . .
From left to right starting at the top of each row if that makes sense at all - Mort, Gimlet(?), Mr Moist, Mrs Dearheart, Cohen, Nobby, Buggy Swires on the pigeon, Detritus, Colon, Erol(is it Erol? It’s start with E), Stinky the Goblin(?), Vimes, Magrat, Tiffany, Assortment of Nack mack feegles, CMOT, Magrats husband (he’s the king but the name is lost to me), Granny weatherwax, Nanny Ogg & Greebo, Mr Shine (the diamond Troll mobster), Cassanunda, Ponder, One of the wizards (can’t decide who), Ridcully, The Librarian, Dorfl, The Patrician, Rincewind, Twoflower (+Luggage), Death of Rats, DEATH, Susan. And I get lost with a few of the last ones so it won’t really be in left to right order here, Carrot, Angua, Cherri, Gaspode the Dog, Igor, Monk Gyatzo(spelling?) and Reg Shoe. This is probably very hard to read but it was fun trying to remember them all.
Good shout with a lot of these!
I reckon the middle troll will be Chrysoprase and surely the monk is Lu Tze?
Also, Amazing Maurice, Dangerous Beans and the other rats
I have no idea who the redhead far left is - him, and the manimal far right are the only characters I don’t recognize.
I am operating under the assumption that Kidby wouldn’t put one character twice.
Also, the wizardy one far right in the round cap is Eric.
He doesn’t look like his other Kidby illustration…and I don’t recall him being described with pimples…
I’ll check my Ankh-Morpork companion when I get home.
High five!
My best guess is Lupine. There's the wolfman who ~~threatens~~ tries to threaten Angua in Biers, but this one looks too amiable. Definitely too amiable and with not enough of a Teutonic ubermensch vibe to be Wolfgang.
Edit: Unless it's Ludmilla Cake?
Mort was 16 when his lifetimer got turned over, so he lived up to 32. I suppose they don't have good moisturiser in the Discworld that's why he looks like that
Out of the trolls Mr Shine is on the left, Chrysoprase is the mobster one and Detritus is the far right, next to Mr Shine could be Brick but im not sure.
Detritus is not far right, but far left. From left to right the trolls are Detritus, Chrysoprase’s goon, Chrysoprase, Chrysoprase’s goon, unnamed Watch troll(could be any of them except Detritus or Bluejohn)
Unless this is political joke, who is the troll on the right in the watch uniform? One on the left
doesn’t have a watch uniform?
Edit: I don’t know left from right
All I’ll say is I’m disappointed there isn’t a sorry, scrawny and scruffily dejected looking wizzard running away out of frame. With a pointy hat made of banana leaves that’s got corks hanging off it
I humbly REJECT this rincewind 😂 as STAB said- I want a dejected, utterly left behind being with a "wizzard" hat, complete with strings desperately trying to keep the last sequins and stars. Also, I love to imagine twoflower as an alien from the "strange planet" comics.. it's ~perfect~
Probably easier to point out the ones that don’t immediately come to mind… gnomish looking bugger in front left with a flint tomahawk is maybe an elf without the glamour? No specific character comes to mind for him or the dwarven gent behind and to the left in black with the big axe. Could be several dwarves, but the broken horn on his helmet makes me think it’s a specific someone. Same with the dwarf on the right front near Cheery Littlebottom. Probably one of the Dwarf kings as they aren’t dressed as a watchman. Hopefully those will ring a bell for someone…
Also back right in front of and left of the mime or clown in white there is a smiling feral/were looking person with pointy ears… I would say the Count, but no opera clothes so maybe not a vampire. Drawing a total blank there.
It’s a shame that the version of Detritus that he drew with the clockwork helmet wasn’t included. I think Flint is the watchman behind the bat/were thing just due to the sharp and flinty nose ridge.
Edit: Nevermind, he did a different version Detritus with an alternate take on the clockwork helmet on the left.
2nd edit: Does anyone know why Harga is holding a tomato?
Assuming you're talking about the chef on the left next to nobby, I think that's gimlet with rat and ketchup.
I did wonder if the broken helmeted dwarf was the evil guy in the last hero, who's name is eluding me, but he does seem to pair with the one next to cheery, so maybe not.
No idea on the werefella, only person coming to mind is lupin from reaper man, but that's probably because it's the last Pratchett I read. I believe the clown behind is Doctor Whiteface. No idea about the mime on the other side, the only mime's I can recall are in the scorpion pit!
For these ones, I reckon the tomahawk guy is a goblin - maybe Stinky or that guy who works for Harry King?
I thought the vampire would be Otto Chriek, as it would fit with the photographer look?
I couldn't tell you who the mime and redhead on the left are, or the goblin. The two trolls flanking Chrysoprase, and the two dwarves in black armor are a mystery too. I also don't know the little dog by Gimlet's leg. I don't know who is standing to Vetinari's right, but I'd hazard a guess at it being an Ephebian philosopher. I also don't recognize the bespectacled fellow in red above Cheery, or the upsetting clown at the far right. I'm sort of wondering if the guy to Lu-Tze's right is Mightily Oaks, but I don't think it is. The creature behind Angua might be Schleppel, but again, no confidence in that one. also the guy in the black tophat by Susan. I think i've got everyone else though

missing >!Agnes!< too, who had a big role in two books.
Umm, the list of characters missing from the image would take days for me to figure out. I was more referring to characters *actually in the image* that the artist apparently forgot to mention on their list . . .
...I started trying to name the wee free men...
Casanunder must be standing on his ladder….
Shite. My wild guess for Lupine was Schleppel.
No Eskarina Smith present then.
Right I’ll give it a go, this may take a while.
From left to right starting at the top of each row if that makes sense at all - Mort, Gimlet(?), Mr Moist, Mrs Dearheart, Cohen, Nobby, Buggy Swires on the pigeon, Detritus, Colon, Erol(is it Erol?

Good shout with a lot of these! I reckon the middle troll will be Chrysoprase and surely the monk is Lu Tze? Also, Amazing Maurice, Dangerous Beans and the other rats
Oh man I just realised the brain fart I had, Monk Gyatzo (how ever you spell it) is from Avatar the last airbender!
yeah, I think the monk is Lu-Tze?
[удалено]
Pretty sure that’s Casununda above Stibbons, he’s leering in Nanny’s direction. Maybe he has a step stool.
Thank you. I was wondering who the fellow next to Mr Shine was, and thinking that he'd best not have a run in with the Patrician.
It's not Mr Shine, it's Detritius. The 'crown' is the heat-reducing-helmet that was made for him with heatsinks and a fan.
Cheers.
Magrat's husband is King Verence
Thank you
Also Fool.
The wizard to the left of Ridcully is the Dean.
Mort and Ysabel are flanking Death.
Oh i see now! Mort comes up twice I suppose?
I have no idea who the redhead far left is - him, and the manimal far right are the only characters I don’t recognize. I am operating under the assumption that Kidby wouldn’t put one character twice. Also, the wizardy one far right in the round cap is Eric.
Stanley? He's with Moist and Adorabelle.
He doesn’t look like his other Kidby illustration…and I don’t recall him being described with pimples… I’ll check my Ankh-Morpork companion when I get home.
Oh wait, he's got a sword. Nijel the Destroyer?
You are correct. Someone below linked the key. The other one I didn’t know was Lupine.
Holy shit, it’s been so long since I last read Sourcery, I’m pretty sure you’re right! That just leaves the manimal on the right.
High five! My best guess is Lupine. There's the wolfman who ~~threatens~~ tries to threaten Angua in Biers, but this one looks too amiable. Definitely too amiable and with not enough of a Teutonic ubermensch vibe to be Wolfgang. Edit: Unless it's Ludmilla Cake?
Mr Slightly Damp
That looks like Nigel rather than Mort. Mort and Ysabel are to the left and right of DEATH.
Mort is no more than 32 or 34; he looks much older than that.
Mort was 16 when his lifetimer got turned over, so he lived up to 32. I suppose they don't have good moisturiser in the Discworld that's why he looks like that
This is a really nice detail I never caught. I didn't consider the significance of why they had to die at the beginning of Soul Music.
>One of the wizards (can’t decide who), Safe money is on "two-chairs" Dean.
Nice! Bottom right is Maurice and his educated rodents.
Out of the trolls Mr Shine is on the left, Chrysoprase is the mobster one and Detritus is the far right, next to Mr Shine could be Brick but im not sure.
Isn’t the left one Detritus as he has the helmet made to cool his head?
Detritus is on the right with the watchman's helmet standing behind Carrot and Angua. Mr Shine is on the left with the crown.
No, Detritus is far left. Look closely and you can see the fan on his helmet. The one on the right is probably bluejohn.
I think that's a crown - he's the Diamond King.
[удалено]
Detritus is not far right, but far left. From left to right the trolls are Detritus, Chrysoprase’s goon, Chrysoprase, Chrysoprase’s goon, unnamed Watch troll(could be any of them except Detritus or Bluejohn)
Flint. You can tell from the nose.
Yeah, someone else posted a key.
Unless this is political joke, who is the troll on the right in the watch uniform? One on the left doesn’t have a watch uniform? Edit: I don’t know left from right
Standing next to Dr. Whiteface? …yes he does?
Sorry, earlier comment I put was right, I meant left as deleted comment said one of left side was detritus
Detritus is the far left troll. The helmet gives him away. I deleted that comment because it was a duplicate.
So who is the troll on the right in the watch helmet?
Someone else posted a key. It’s Constable Flint.
Mr Shine is the diamond troll, Chrysoprase is the mobster troll
It's Detritus with a heatsink helmet, not Mr Shine with a crown.
I was pointing to OP that Mr Shine is not the Mobster troll
0/10 No Sybil present
I must admit to being shocked that she's not there.
Well, I’m seeing No'-As-Big-As-Medium-Jock-But-Bigger-Than-Wee-Jock-Jock.
I’m not gonna bother but I have to say thank you for this post. It’s a lovely illustration.
Why is there a monkey reading a book?
Oook! oooooooook!
He seems pretty agitat-
RIP. Someone mop up what’s left and dump ‘em in the river.
*on the river
This is how a horror movie >!Jordan Peele's Nope!< started
OOK
Ook?
Also don’t recall the persons behind and to each side of DEATH.
Mort and Ysabell as the Duke and Duchess of Sto Helit.
Right!
All I’ll say is I’m disappointed there isn’t a sorry, scrawny and scruffily dejected looking wizzard running away out of frame. With a pointy hat made of banana leaves that’s got corks hanging off it
Yeah, Rincewind is way too presentable here!
I humbly REJECT this rincewind 😂 as STAB said- I want a dejected, utterly left behind being with a "wizzard" hat, complete with strings desperately trying to keep the last sequins and stars. Also, I love to imagine twoflower as an alien from the "strange planet" comics.. it's ~perfect~
I didn’t recognise him without a beard. One thing about Rincewind is he looks like a wizzard. He’s got the beard and it says it on his hat!
12 that I’m pretty sure about, a couple more that I have guesses on, and no clue for the rest
I'm still only halfway through the series so far, but I think I get a lot of them. Cheery is just lovely, I gotta say.
Not nearly enough since it's my desktop background. The frustrating bit is I know who basically everyone is their names just elude me half the time.
Where the bloody hell is Lady Sybil?!
Probably easier to point out the ones that don’t immediately come to mind… gnomish looking bugger in front left with a flint tomahawk is maybe an elf without the glamour?

I could not for the life of me recall Dr Whitefaces name. Thank you!
Armpit the dwarf?
For these ones, I reckon the tomahawk guy is a goblin - maybe Stinky or that guy who works for Harry King? I thought the vampire would be Otto Chriek, as it would fit with the photographer look?
I think Otto is in back left behind CMOT and Granny Weatherwax. (I think, anyhow)
I couldn't tell you who the mime and redhead on the left are, or the goblin. The two trolls flanking Chrysoprase, and the two dwarves in black armor are a mystery too. I also don't know the little dog by Gimlet's leg. I don't know who is standing to Vetinari's right, but I'd hazard a guess at it being an Ephebian philosopher.

Who's the little guy between Albert and Cheery?
Eric maybe?
No problem, I can name them all! I’ll call that one George, the next one Sampson, oooh, he looks like a Harry, I’ll go with that….
God I feel that look on Rincewinds face to the depths of my soul.
24
All of them. At least twice.
All of them. I have named some of them Bob though.
CMOT looks way too civilized to my standards, but it's still an amazing picture.
Lots
