Wilt was a deceased member of the Black Company who received a memorial inscription from the Company's dedicated grave keeper, Outsweeper, in Port of Shadows.
The context of Outsweeper's cryptic epitath for Wilt – "I do not think that he will have been improved by death"[1] – is not explained in Croaker's Annals. Wilt's cause of death is not specified but it probably resulted from combat against the enemy Rebel and Resurrectionist forces in Honnoh or elsewhere in the region of Aloe.
Wilt's remains were buried by Outsweeper in the Company's Aloen graveyard, among the trees of an apple orchard located half a mile from the Company's compound. Of the 17 deceased Company members memorialized by Outsweeper whose inscriptions were recorded by Croaker, only Minkus Scudd featured in the Annals beforehand. The remaining 16 names, including Wilt's, only appeared in the context of their epitaths, so nothing else is known about them.
