Dalinar believes there isn't a woman in all of Roshar to match her beauty.[1]

Personality
Navani challenges Alethi protocol, but one does not reprove Navani Kholin, even if one is king.[1] Much like her daughter, she is a political creature; intrigue makes her blossom like a rockbud in calm wet air.[1] She is loyal to her son.[1]
History
Background
Navani is the widow of King Gavilar Kholin, who was Dalinar's brother. For many years prior to their marriage, it was uncertain just which of the two brothers she would marry. She played them off one another, fanning each their desires, before finally choosing the elder son. (They'd both known all along that she'd choose Gavilar. It had still hurt Dalinar anyway.)[1] With Gavilar dead, Navani is to be treated as sister to Dalinar by him.[1] He refers to her as Mathana, the formal Alethi term for an older sister.[1]
She is also the mother of Jasnah, another renowned scholar, as well as the new king, Elhokar.[2]
She'd remained in Alethkar for many years after most of the nobility had moved to the Shattered Plains, where she was to aid the queen in protecting the king's interests there, thereby fulfilling her duty to the people.[2] She later realized that the Alethi government had essentially moved to the Shattered Plains, and eventually did so too.[5]
Reasons for returning to the Shattered Plains
Navani's return to the Plains from Alethkar is three-fold: she brought word of the Veden half-shards, she wishes her son to be protected, and she needs to speak with Dalinar.[1]
Relationships
Dalinar
When Navani returns to the Shattered Plains from Kholinar, she frequently speaks with him, and later becomes romantically involved with him. This is unusual among the Alethi, as she was previously married to Dalinar's brother. Navani also discovers that the language which Dalinar speaks during his visions is possibly the Dawnchant, a dead language, which would prove that his visions are accurate and not the product of insanity.[6]
Interactions with Shallan
Navani originally disliked Shallan for bringing the news of Jasnah's death, even though it was certainly not her fault. Adolin her nephew is betrothed to Shallan however, and after giving Adolin helpful advice, comes to like Shallan. She helps Shallan in her research on Urithiru, the city of the Knights Radiant.
Attributes and Abilities
Navani Kholin is a renowned engineer, scholar and artifabrian and is heavily involved in the creation of new fabrials. She is one of the artifabrians who created the Grandbow[2] as well as a type of painrial[6]. Many of her inventions, such as the painrial, are used in the war against the Parshendi, making her incredibly valuable to the Alethi.
