Dockson is sporting a dark half-beard and close-cropped straight, black hair. He has a squarish face and stout arms. Dockson prefers to wear nobleman's suits and always looks trim. Vin describes him as stocky without being fat and characterizes him as a temperate person, a kind man, very stable, sturdy, calm and very clever. But he shares Kelsier's hatred for the nobility.
Dockson had been Kelsier's right-hand man, and the more "realistic" of the pair. And yet, there had always been an edge of humor to Dockson---a sense that he enjoyed his role as the straight man. He hadn't foiled Kelsier so much as complemented him.
Dockson has strong organisational skills and is responsible for the crew's financials amongst other things.
When something needed to be purchased [...] Dockson saw that it got done. When a building needed to be rented, supplies procured, or a permit secured, Dockson made it happen. [...] Without him, however, Vin suspected that the entire crew would fall apart.
In short, he did what he always did: He made Kelsier's dreams become reality.
With Kelsier's death Dockson changes. He does the same things as before and still plays the role of the responsible one in the crew, but the laughter is gone.
He doesn't get along with Elend because he thinks that Kelsier would be angry with him for letting Elend rule. He avoids Elend if possible and always choses the seat farthest to him. He doesn't want to accept that Elend bears no guilt for what the nobility did to his people because then he must admit to being a monster for the things he did to them.
