Changes

The son of [[Kettricken]] and [[Verity]], although due to the sickly condition of his body at the time of conception, Verity used the [[Skill]] to swap bodies with [[Fitz]] in order that an heir be produced for the [[Farseer]] throne following the death of their first child, [[Sacrifice (infant)|Sacrifice]]. The slightly ambiguous nature of Dutiful's parantage is not an overly large issue, however, with Fitz only making one or two comments that he was the 'son of his body', and that Kettricken herself did not particularly understand what happened the night her son was conceived. None of this is ever revealed to Dutiful.

It is revealed that Dutiful has the [[Wit]] as well as the [[Skill]], something that caused him to be kidnapped by the [[Piebalds]]. He was bonded to a cat for a while, before she was killed by Fitz after trying to attack him.
