There is one other semi-major Tsalmoth, unless Vlad is mistaken:

Jhereg, page 101 of the Book of Jhereg - Fentor was a Tsalmoth, and he'd
been with Morrolan's security forces for over fifty years.

Yendi, page 240 of the Book of Jhereg - I concentrated on a certain
Tsalmoth, who worked for Morrolan and reported directly to me. . . . "Who is
it?" said Fentor.

Now, I'm half convinced this Fentor is the same Fentor from the Lord of
Castle Black, but _that_ Fentor was a Dragon:

The Lord of Castle Black, page 73 - [Morrolan] had been fortunate enough to
find a Dragonlord named Fentor e'Mondaar.

Now, we know Vlad is not the foremost expert on House identification (see
the Lady Daro, a Tiassa who Vlad mistakes for a Lyorn), so who knows.  If
Fentor in Vlad's time is a Tsalmoth, he does appear quite a bit different in
character than Lord Garland.
