Sorry if that didn't come out clear enough..."IT" was the ability to change into his "true" form - the blue banded hawk (If you've read D.Eddings then you know what I mean.) .
Famous Last Words:
"You can't kill me 'cause I've got magic armoraaaaargh !"
"They're only kobolds!"
So he kills kittens? Nothing to fear about that. (CM about Foul on SYM)
"Hey Beldin ! I don't like your face !"
"Nevermore."
@Viv: I've read the "Malloreon" and "Belgariad" series several times over the last years, and I've always wondered what happened to Beldin after the end of the saga....now I try to make it fit in ...

Okay, now I feel stupid. I have the Belgariad (including 'Belgarath the Sorcerer' and 'Polgara the Sorceress' etc..) sitting in my book case...and I forgot about Beldin!!! I always did like him, though Silk was a close second for cutest Something about rat faced little men with no scruples...
Umm...didn't Beldin settle down with his wife at the end of the series?

Not quite...he and Vella changed into their "other" forms as a matched pair of hawks and flew off - never to be seen again...
"My" Beldin picks up his life some centuries into his personal future...
He was always my favourite character because he wasn't deceived by appearances - after all HE was the ugly one ...AND he was the most intelligent of all the main characters...

Indeed....I always knew that being a ranger involved stewardship of the land and its inhabitants....but it sounds as though he misread the job description somehow.....

Hmmm....wonders whether being partially blind may have anything to do with this?
