	Steerpike - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

		Steerpike's red eyes and pallor, frequently referred to in the text, suggest he is an albino.

		Steerpike is now able to observe life at the court of Gormenghast in great detail: the mysterious Lady Gertrude who only loves her pets and constantly talks to them, and the gloomy Lord of the castle, who is devoted only to his books and to their son Titus who it mute.
		Steerpike prances in frenzied rapture at being liberated from his kitchen confines, performs acrobatic tricks to impress Fuchsia, or assumes the form of the Grim Reaper to subdue the Twins.
		Steerpike is a veritable ball of energy whose bizarre kinetics give full vent to his urges which in a sense are beyond his control.

	Alt.Gormenghast, Version 1Av
		Steerpike let Magnus grab at his nose (it was as close to a game as they had) and found himself smiling involuntarily.
		Steerpike was uncharacteristically in his shirtsleeves, polishing one of what had become an impressive collection of swords.
		But then Steerpike was one of the few people she actually disliked: not because he was her employer, and certainly not for his appearance, and not because she knew his origins (although she did) and considered him inferior in caste.

		Steerpike looked rather irritated at the frank dismissal, his lengthy arm reached across swiftly, lightly grasping Laurelle's arm, it would be perceived as a polite tap, but in truth it could quickly turn to be a strong grasp.
		Steerpike would do no such thing for any woman, if he were to treat her in any fashion, he would treat her as if he were a gentleman, not a slave to such idealic beauty.
		Steerpike himself ordered one of his small craft to be brought to the harbor, the ropes loosened, fourteen archers stooped on the deck, hidden by the side of the boat.

		She hated the way Steerpike crept too, a hate that was half admiration, the way he would move faster than anything with his crooked pace.
		Steerpike was comfortable with this, the ease at which he had won over the little ladyship, and how easily she would fit into his plan.
		She felt Steerpike's brittle arms enclosing her in his scheming embrace, and she squirmed to face him, her longing lips soothing the mottled burns on his face.

	The Gormenghast Trilogy: Titus Groan, Gormenghast, Titus Alone : Mervyn Peake
		Equality, of course, is not enough for Steerpike: he is Modern in a terrible sense that Peake could only have dreamed of, and nothing less than control of the castle will do.
		Titus' own career is a mirror of Steerpike's: the boy who has all but his freedom wants only that, the boy who has gained nothing but his freedom from the kitchens wants everything.
		His destruction of the heredity of the Masters of Ceremony has surely ended the ritual as a force, and it is left to the Countess, who cares for nothing but her animals, the exiled Flay and Prunesquallor, on the margins of castle society, to see that justice is done.

	DVD Review - Gormenghast (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Steerpike very soon starts his path up the courtly ladder, gaining confidences and increasing his visibility amongst the privileged class.
		Soon, Steerpike counsels Lord Groan’s scheming twin sisters, Cora and Clarice (Lynsey Baxter and Zoe Wanamaker), on how to wrest power away from the Earl and back into their hands.
		With a ruthlessness and bearing that would shame Machiavelli, Steerpike manipulates virtually all who cross his path, instantly sizing how their standing may or may not aid his rise to the throne.

	Anybody else watched "Gormenghast?" - www.ezboard.com
		Steerpike in the novel was certainly a disagreeable character.
		He seemed too petulant and spoilt, which truly left Steerpike in an odd position in my mind, since he was meant to be the villain, but I truly couldn't feel any sympathy for the "hero" of the story.
		Well, even though Steerpike is described as physically unattractive in the book, he is still attractive in the sense that he is the only character that has the energy to change anything.

	Gormenghast: A Review
		The characters are essentially as they are in the novels, with the notable exception of Steerpike, one of the 20th century's great literary villains: he's as versatile as Martha Stewart and as ambitious as Shakespeare's Richard III, to whom he owes a lot.
		Peake's Steerpike is a control freak from the outset, contemptuous of the dust and clutter around him ("he hated untidiness as he hated love").
		Rhys Meyers makes this rigidity something Steerpike acquires as his power grows; it is signalled in the flattening of his speech, the increasing constriction of his uniform, and the taming back of his long hair.

	Steerpike's IGDA Column - Four Fat Chicks Forums
		Our Steerpike (aka Matt Sakey) is one of the premier game consultants in the business.
		I've known and worked with him for 7 or 8 years now (back to our days at Gone Gold) and, even though he's from a suspect University with maize as a primary team color (inside Michigan joke), it's been gratifying and no surprise at all to follow his growing contriutions to the world of gaming.

	Bands: Overtoad, Steerpike and Blind Dog Creed
		We gigged all over the south east of England, the biggest one, with Steerpike, being at the Tilgate Prom in front of 7000 people.
		The East Grinstead band scene was once very lively (the 101 Club, The Crown, The Shelly Arms, The Wiremill) - you can see a 'band family tree' (77k) of bands I've been involved with, and others.
		I played a few more gigs with the Steerpike line-up when they were called Daydream, then Dandy In The Underworld and later Jupter Liar.

		This mismatched pair (he'd prefer the melancholy privacy of his library; she'd prefer the company of her menagerie of cats and birds) also have a teenaged daughter, Fuchsia, who resents her new brother but comes to love him dearly.
		This position allows Steerpike to work his way into the favour of the Earl's discontented twin sisters, Cora and Clarice, who feel displaced by Gertrude.
		When Steerpike becomes Master of Ritual himself (although he's scarred for life in the fire that kills his predecessor), Titus decides he's had enough.

		Rhys-Meyers is probably too pretty to be Steerpike, but we shouldn't hold that against him; he did an excellent job.
		In spite of the murders, the villain Steerpike still appears to be most fit to be ruler.

	La Biblioteca de Babel - Steerpike
		Steerpike: flaco, encorvado, de intensos ojos rojizos demasiado juntos, ambicioso, calculador, frío como una serpiente y a la vez encantador y servicial.
		Steerpike no es el villano simpático, ese con un trauma lejano o un buen fondo, que parece ser la moda del momento.
		La BBC hizo una preciosa adaptación de los dos primeros libros, en la que Steerpike es más bien el antihéroe que el malo, y donde Titus, el bueno de los libros, parece un caramelito chupado en comparación con la energía de Steerpike.
