Shallan Davar was a lighteyed Veden on Roshar.

She was a member of the Devotary of Purity and a Surgebinder with the ability to Soulcast by communicating with cryptics. She was also in possession of a Shardblade and a broken Soulcaster that belonged to her father. Shallan revealed to the cryptics that she killed her father.

Personality

Shallan was considered shy by her family, but when she left the family estates behind, she opened up and gained confidence. She had a quick wit, and often unthinkingly uttered the first thing to come to mind.

Shallan had the ability to deliberately memorize a scene (usually involving blinking) after which she could paint or draw that scene with remarkable accuracy. She had a passion for learning and a great talent for drawing. She was never without her sketchbooks and charcoal, so she might draw whatever caught her interest. Shallan frequently drew and made notes on the world around her, in order to promote her Calling of natural history.

Kharbranth

Shallan spent several months chasing Jasnah across many cities, hoping to become her ward in order to steal Jasnah's Soulcaster. She finally caught up to Jasnah in Kharbranth, and attempted to convince her to take Shallan as her ward, failing twice and finally succeeding on the third attempt. Shallan finally succeeded in stealing Jasnah's Soulcaster only to discover that it was a fake. Shallan also discovered her own Soulcasting abilities after this theft.

During her studies with Jasnah, Shallan developed a friendship with the ardent Kabsal who accidentally poisoned both Shallan and himself in an attempt to assassinate Jasnah for the Ghostbloods. Shallan realized that her father also might have been a member of the same organization.
