[[Image:Fitzchivalry-port.jpg|thumb|Sketch of Fitz as Tom Badgerlock by [[John Howe]]]]
An identity that [[Fitz]] takes for himself when he returns from the [[Mountain Kingdom]] after [[Verity]] has finished his dragon. Lady [[Patience]] used to call him Tom (a codename used to refer to him in the letters between [[Verity]] and [[Chivalry (King-In-Waiting)|Chivalry]] when he was growing up), so that could be why he picked that name, "Badgerlock" is part of his cover strory to explain his white streak of hair. He claims to have born with it and so his parents named him after it. Tom Badgerlock lives in a humble cottage near the ruins of [[Forge]] with his fosterson [[Hap]], keeps some chickens and a pony called [[Clover]]. He makes inks and traders them for the few things he can't grow in his garden or otherwise make for himself. During harvest time he also hires for work. He has an old dog who looks suspiciously like a wolf, and is in truth [[Nighteyes]]. 

Tom Badgerlock eventually comes to [[Buckkeep]] to act as the personal servant and bodyguard of [[Lord Golden]]. At that time he claims to be 42 years old, but that is 7 years past his real age. He instructs Prince [[Dutiful]] in both the [[Wit]] and the [[Skill]].
