Diferencia entre revisiones de «Hoid»

'''Hoid''' is a recurring character in the [[cosmere]], as well as a legend rumored to have a thousand titles. He has appeared in almost every cosmere novel, short story, and novella which takes place in that universe. Note that his real name is likely not Hoid. In The Way of Kings, he mentions he stole the name from someone he should have loved, while giving [[Kaladin]] his flute and telling the story of the [[Wandersail]]. In section 2 of the 2nd [[Letters|Letter]] from [[Words of Radiance]], the author of the letter asks if Hoid is no longer hiding behind the name of his old master. The name "Hoid" is likely the name he is hiding behind.

Brandon has confirmed that all of these appearances are the same individual,{{qa ref|690|39}} but that he [[worldhopping|worldhops]] between planets.
