Chickenwire

Background

Chickenwire is a thief in Ankh-Morpork, on Discworld. His worst nightmare is being locked in the wardrobe.

During the events of Terry Pratchett's Hogfather (2006) played by Craig Conway

Teatime has a meeting with Medium Dave, Banjo, Chickenwire and Mr Sideney. Mr Brown shows up at the meeting and Teatime punches Banjo in the mouth, knocking out one of his teeth. As Violet collects Banjo's tooth she is grabbed, while Teatime hijacks Ernie's carriage. Banjo carries Violet and puts her in Ernie's carriage and the others get inside. Banjo reminds Medium Dave that their mom told them not to hit girls. Teatime then tells Ernie to drive to the Unseen University.

Ernie drives the carriage to a wall behind the Unseen University and Teatime takes some magic powder that Ernie has and throws it at the wall and a portal forms. Teatime then kills Ernie and drives the carriage through the portal. Teatime and the others walk into the Tooth Fairy's castle and some Toothguards stick their heads out from behind pillars and look at them. The Toothguards are then killed by Medium Dave and Chickenwire. Teatime tells Chickenwire and Medium Dave to pile all the teeth into a pile and tells Mr Brown to unlock every door in the castle. Medium Dave and Chickenwire finish gathering all of the teeth and Mr Sideney starts to cast his spell. As teeth start to fly out of the teeth pile, Mr Sideney tells Teatime there are random bits of belief affecting the spell. As Medium Dave and Chickenwire are planning to leave with property deeds they found, Teatime stops them and tells Medium Dave, he controls Banjo now. When he appears in the castle, Chickenwire attacks Bilious, but a force pushes him inside a large wardrobe and he dies of fright.
