| And while I am your friend, please understand that our goals do not completely align. You must not trust yourself with me. If I have to watch this [[Roshar|world]] crumble and burn to get what I need, I will do so. With tears, yes, but I would let it happen.

'''Hoid''' is a recurring character in the [[cosmere]]. He has appeared in almost every cosmere novel, short story, and novella which takes place in that universe.
 
 
===== [[Oathbringer]] =====
The three letters in part two of Oathbringer are directed at Cephandrius. The first two explicity says this, but the third one just says friend, however it is likely that they are all referring to the same person. Hoid appears as Wit in the middle of the novel, discussing the nature of power with Shallan. He later helps her get into the Cult of Moments, and finds Shallan at her darkest moment when she discovers the food she has been giving to the poor is just making things worse. Hoid at some point gives a drawing of [[Talenel]] and [[Shalash]] to Jasnah.{{book ref|sa3|121}}
 
He Awakens a doll while escaping [[Kholinar]] and also bonds a [[Cryptic]], presumably the spren [[Elhokar]] was about to bond before he died.{{book ref|sa3|epilogue}}

Ash comments why is Midius giving away pictures of them when she sees the drawings of [[Talenel]] and [[Shalash]].{{book ref|sa3|121}} Midius is a name Hoid is refereed to as in an unpublished work and it is probable that Ash is referring to Hoid in that instance. If the drawings are from Hoid he probably gave [[Jasnah]] the drawings after meeting her upon her return from [[Shadesmar]] before he headed to [[Kholinar]] {{book ref|sa2|epilogue}} Hoid is shown insulting a person who does not speak alethi in an attempt to get a reaction from the man. upon realizing that he can't understand alethi Hoid decides repeating it all in [[Thaylen]] would be boring so he cuts in front of the man. The man hits him and Hoid removes a loose tooth as he leaves the area, discarding the tooth. Hoid then awakens a doll to convince a little girl to leave the corpse of her mother, and after giving the child into the care of a family he heads to the palace where he also acquires a [[Cryptic]], presumably the spren [[Elhokar]] was about to bond before he died.{{book ref|sa3|epilogue}}
 
==== The Letters ====
In the epigraphs in Part 2 of The Way of Kings, there is the text of a [[letters|letter]]. Both its author and [[The Recipient|recipient]] are unknown. This letter refers to Vessels[[Vessel]]s by their names and begs the recipient for aid in the struggle against [[Rayse]], holder of the Shard [[Odium]]. If Hoid wrote this letter, it offers valuable insights into his personality and goals. The author of the Letter is being hunted by the Seventeenth Shard and has set a false trail for them to follow, which lines up well with the interlude in which three men are searching for Hoid. Brandon has also said that we "may have read that Hoid has specific beef with Rayse," with the Letter being the only real example of this.{{wob ref|4130}}
 
The Letters in [[Oathbringer]]'s epigraphs are all from Shards{{17s ref|post|638473|text=Oathbringer's letters are from Shards we know.|date=2017-11-19}} and possibly all of them are directed to Hoid.
 
== Appearance & Personality ==
 
Hoid's true personality, while also usually disguised, is more easily seen as he occasionally drops whatever part he is playing. One of his overall most noticeable traits is his sharp wit and intelligence. The characters he plays often have a penchant for jokes and mockery but when he removes the facade his personality often seems mysterious and grave.{{book ref|twok|epilogue}}{{book ref|twok|57}}
 
* Inability to hurt others - Hoid cannot easily kill people "because of certain things in his past."{{qa ref|1044|9}} Rock says he cannot hurt man because it is forbidden by other gods.{{book ref|sa2|46}} He also tells a young Shallan, "You needn't fear me. I'm terribly ineffective at hurting people. I blame my upbringing."{{book ref|sa2|45}} Hoid apologizes to Kelsier after beating him in a fight, stating he doesn't have the inclination to do real harm to him.{{msh ref|2|1}}

== Abilities ==
{{theory}}
Hoid does not yet have the abilities of every planet he's visited.{{qa ref|1110|5}} Some of his powers predate the [[Shattering]], but none of them are gained through [[Hemalurgy]].{{qa ref|1115|44}} When asked about how many types of magic he can use, Brandon has pointed out that they are all really part of the same system so it's difficult to count, but he wouldn't say that Hoid knows 'hundreds' of varieties of magic.{{qa ref|1094|43}}
