'''Navani Kholin''' is a [[Lighteyes|Brightlady]] of [[Alethkar]] on [[Roshar]].{{book ref|sa1|22}} She is widow to King [[Gavilar Kholin]]'s widow and the mother of [[Jasnah]] and King [[Elhokar]].{{book ref|sa1|12}} She is also sister-in-law to [[Dalinar Kholin]] and aunt to [[Adolin]] and [[Renarin Kholin]].{{book ref|sa1|12}}

Navani is a stately woman with intricately woven black hair. She has violet eyes and her black hair is streaked with grey. She has a warm, feminine voice and the confidence to verbally spar with [[Hoid|Wit]].{{book ref|sa1|12}} Her scent is that of the sweet floral of her perfumed soap.{{book ref|sa1|69}} Navani often wears rubies in her hair and a blood red dress, with her lips painted red.{{book ref|sa2|4}} She is known as one of the most beautiful women in Alethkar. [[Dalinar]] believes there isn't a woman in all of Roshar to match her beauty.{{book ref|sa1|22}}

Navani challenges [[Alethi]] protocol, but one does not reprove Navani Kholin, even if one is king.{{book ref|sa1|22}} Give her five minutes in a city and she'd know anything and everything of significance about which was being gossiped.{{book ref|sa1|22}} She doesn't presume to make judgements, but she does enjoy pointing out the obvious.{{book ref|sa1|28}} Nevertheless, Navani is excellent at keeping secrets. Further, she is supremely exacting in her words and thoughts. (For this reason, Dalinar chooses her to record his [[Dalinar's visions]].{{book ref|sa1|52}}

Navani is the widow of King Gavilar Kholin, who was Dalinar's brother.{{book ref|sa1|12}} 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.){{book ref|sa1|22}} With Gavilar dead, Navani is to be treated as sister to Dalinar by him.{{book ref|sa1|22}} He refers to her as [[Mathana]], the formal Alethi term for an older sister. (She is only 3 months his senior, but the term is still applicable.){{book ref|sa1|22}}

Navani's return to the Plains from Alethkar is three-fold: she brought word that the [[Vedenar|Vedens]] havehad perfected the [[Half-Shards|half-shards]], she wishes her son to be protected, and she needs to speak with Dalinar.{{book ref|sa1|22}} She also realized that leaving the Plains had been a political mistake because the [[warcamp]]s are more and more the true center of their kingdom. While in [[Kholinar]], she determined that that the queen was sufficiently endowed with the requisite skills need to hold the city. (The very argument that had originally convinced Navani to return to Kholinar was that the Alethi absence from their homeland was dangerous.){{book ref|sa1|22}}

When Navani returns to the Shattered Plains from Kholinar, she frequently speaks with Dalinar, and later becomes romantically involved with him, which is unusual, because in the eyes of Alethi society, she is now considered to be Dalinar's sister.{{book ref|sa1|22}} Part of what Navani finds intriguing about him is that he's begun to ''be'' the person the others all ''claim'' to be.{{book ref|sa1|28}} Part of what sheShe now finds to be fascinating is Dalinar's 'intensity', thatwhich frightened her backwhen thenthey both were younger, butto be fascinating because he's now wrapped it in armor.{{book ref|sa1|28}}

Navani believes Dalinar to be a kind man. Telling him so, she expresses that she's compelled to find him to be fascinating while she admits that she's taking advantage of him - a little; she's not toying with him.{{book ref|sa1|28}}
