'''Renarin Kholin''' is a [[lighteyes]] of the [[Alethkar|Alethi]] [[House Kholin]] on [[Roshar]]. He is ostensibly a [[Truthwatcher]], and is bonded to the corrupted [[spren]], [[Glys]].{{book ref|sa2|89}} He is the second son of [[Dalinar]] and [[Evi]], and the younger brother of [[Adolin]]. This makes him the nephew to [[Gavilar]] and [[Navani]] and cousin to [[Elhokar]] and [[Jasnah]]. Since Dalinar's abdication, he is first in line to succeed Adolin as [[highprince]] of the [[Kholin princedom]].{{book ref|sa1|69}}{{book ref|sa3|122}}
== Appearance and Personality ==
=== Surgebinding ===
He is also a [[Surgebinder]] and a fledgling member of the [[Knights Radiant]]. He claims to be a [[Truthwatcher]], bonded to a spren named [[Glys]],{{book ref|sa2|89}} but is not a true member of the order due to the corruption of his spren.{{book ref|sa3|116}} Renarin bonded Glys at some point before Adolin's final duel.{{wob ref|283}} As a Truthwatcher he would have access to the [[Surge]]s of [[Progression]] and [[Illumination]], however,
He is able to use a surge of Stormlight to banish the life and animating force out from a [[Thunderclast]].{{book ref|sa3|120}}
Renarin's visions manifest as fits that come upon him against his will, wherein he sees a number of scenes represented as stained-glass images, some of them underlined with numbers and words. {{book ref|sa3|120}} These visions can show both past and future events, even of situations where Renarin is not present at the time the event depicted happens.{{book ref|sa3|117}} However, the images of the future are not always accurate, and what actually happens can diverge from what Renarin sees.{{book ref|sa3|118}}
The visions are the result of [[Glys]]'s corruption by [[Sja-anat]] prior to the formation of the Radiant bond. This changed Glys's appearance from the typical light-spot shape to a red snowflake, and has somehow introduced [[Odium]]'s influence to the bond. How far this influence extends is yet to be seen.{{book ref|sa3|115}}
Renarin's futuresight causes him to be a black spot that Odium cannot see when he tries to see the future himself.{{book ref|sa3|122}}{{wob ref|11882}} This is due to a conflict in [[Fortune]] similar to the way [[Allomancy|Allomantic]] [[electrum]] and [[gold]] interact with each other.{{wob ref|11873}}
== History ==
When Adolin went to meet with [[Eshonai]] in Dalinar's place he borrowed Renarin's Shardplate, which used to belong to Dalinar, to disguise the fact that he was not actually Dalinar.{{book ref|sa2|51}}
During Adolin's duel with the four Shardbearers Renarin, without his Plate, joined the fray to try and help his brother. As [[Abrobadar]] engaged with him,
By the time Kaladin was released from prison Renarin was fully integrated into Bridge Four and he began learning to carry their bridge with [[Lopen]]'s cousins and the other new recruits. He did his first full bridge carry during Shallan's expedition to explore the Plains.{{book ref|sa2|68}}
}}
As Shallan and the scholars tried to figure out how to operate the Oathgate Renarin crouched on the floor of the building writing zeros all over the floor as he mumbled repeatedly about how he had seen the Everstorm coming and that they were doomed.{{book ref|sa2|85}}
After Dalinar bonded with the [[Stormfather]] he met with Kaladin and Shallan, a meeting of Radiants. Renarin walked in and joined them, revealing that he too was a Knight Radiant. He told them that he was a [[Truthwatcher]] and that his ability was that he saw the truth of things. Dalinar realized that this was why he had stopped wearing his eyeglasses, and that the reason he froze every time he summoned his Shardblade was because of the screams he was hearing.{{book ref|sa2|89}}
After Kaladin returned from his trip through Alethkar Renarin went with the other members of Bridge Four back to the Shattered Plains for a training session. Rock invited Renarin to help him bake the bread for the rest of the squad. As they worked together, they discussed Renarin's role in Bridge Four now that most of the members were becoming [[Windrunner]] [[squire]]s. Later, caravan carrying Rock's family was being attacked by Fused and the bridgemen raced to defend it. Renarin went and brought Adolin and two companies of troops to the scene. While the soldiers he brought arrived too late to help, Renarin's healing saved several men's lives.{{book ref|sa3|37}}
After Jasnah's return, Renarin attended a meeting of
When Dalinar went to [[Thaylen City]] and saw the hospitals full of people wounded by the Everstorm he sent for Renarin who came and healed many of the injured. When the Thaylens he healed tried thanking him, he directed them to Dalinar, who he gave credit for the healing.{{book ref|sa3|59}} He also tried to heal [[Rysn]]'s legs, but was unable to do so since too much time had passed since her accident.{{book ref|sa3|i|13}}
Renarin continued to attend meetings with the other scholars. He tried to find a pattern in the way the stones in the gem archive were stored but he was unsuccessful. Jasnah wanted him to stay with the scholars for longer, but Navani noticed how happy he was with the other bridgemen and encouraged him to spend more time with his fellow squad members instead.{{book ref|sa3|104}} Navani had Renarin try to push Stormlight into the heart of the tower in an attempt at restoring the tower's full functions, but he was not able to make it stick.{{book ref|sa3|109}}
}}
During the [[Battle of Thaylen Field]] Renarin sat in the temple of [[Pailiah]] seeing visions of the future, manifesting as panes of stained glass combining and melting together.{{book ref|sa3|115}}{{book ref|sa3|117}} Jasnah realized that something was not right with him and came to the temple intending to kill him and end the threat he, as a corrupted Radiant, posed to the rest of mankind. When she saw Glys floating in the air above Renarin's back she compared it to the sketch [[Jochi]] had given her
Jasnah took Renarin's hand and pulled him through the city in a mad rush, jumping from building to building as she raced towards Dalinar and the column of [[gloryspren]] forming around him. Renarin complained that he couldn't keep up, but Jasnah told him that as a Radiant he was fully capable of doing so. As they neared some of [[Amaram]]'s troops Renarin warned Jasnah that he had seen in a vision that they had changed sides, but she kept going towards them. When she was close enough, she [[Soulcast]] the soldiers into [[Ten Essences|crystal]]. She then turned the wall of a nearby building into smoke, trapping some soldiers behind the rubble, and conjured a set of stairs out of the air for them to climb onto the next building. By the time they reached where Dalinar was standing outside the city he had closed the [[Honor's Perpendicularity|

Renarin is very close with his mother, [[Evi]]. She told him myths and stories about Roshar when he was a young boy.{{book ref|sa1|61}} She would tell him what a great man his father was.{{book ref|sa3|94}}
===
After Renarin joins [[Bridge Four]] the other members, especially [[Moash]], were hostile and unwelcoming towards him,{{book ref|sa2|41}} but he quickly develops a very close relationship with the other [[bridgemen]].{{book ref|sa2|68}} After he reveals to everyone that he is a Truthwatcher and the other members of Bridge Four become [[Windrunner]] [[squire]]s Renarin begins to feel that he is too different from the other men and considers leaving the squad, but Rock reassures him that he belongs in the group.{{book ref|sa3|37}} Renarin is very friendly with [[Rlain]] and often goes out of his way to speak with him.{{book ref|sa3|55}} When Renarin started attending meetings with the other scholars and began learning how to read, the other members of Bridge Four, notably [[Skar]] and [[Drehy]], were made uncomfortable by what he was doing, but [[Kaladin]] and Rock reassured them.{{book ref|sa3|55}}
