[[File: Kelsier portrait.png|right|150px|thumb|Portrait of Kelsier by [[User: Luaru]].]]
Kelsier is tall and hawk-faced and has light-blonde hair and hazel eyes{{book ref|mb1|3}}{{17s ref|post|435085
He is almost always late to any gatherings, which he attributes to always having somewhere better to be{{book ref|mb1|27}}. He always smiles and projects an excited and positive attitude, which is particularly unusual in the skaa underground. He does this in order to fight the Lord Ruler's oppression of all the skaa, he wants to have one thing which cannot be taken away from him.{{book ref|mb1|prologue}} He hates all of the nobility and tends to believe that all of them are to blame for the plight of the skaa, although near the end of his life this attitude changes due to Vin's insistence that [[Elend]] is different and that not all the nobles should be fought. He has an imposing presence and is a natural leader, easily taking charge and swaying even the downtrodden skaa of Luthadel into joining the rebellion with his charming personality. However he is not above using this personality to manipulate those around him to his own ends, as can be viewed through his spreading of the rumours of the "eleventh metal".
Some might say that Kelsier is a psychopath, though this is debatable due to the intense anger he exhibits when innocents (or rather his idea of innocents) are harmed, which is a very empathetic trait. He also shows regret and guilt for what happened to Vin in the aftermath of the Kredik Shaw burglary. Throughout the series he has fond memories of his wife whom he misses greatly, and her death caused him to snap into Allomancy. Nevertheless, Sanderson states that Kelsier derives pleasure from killing people, but only allows that part of his personality to surface occasionally, when he is fighting noblemen, and he tries to channel this aspect of his personality into a good cause.{{
== History ==
After Spook removed his pewter spike, Spook hears Kelsier's actual voice, telling him that they were friends, since Kelsier was able to 'piggyback' on Preservation's power after its death. {{annotation ref|mb3|chapter=58-3}} Kelsier appeared and spoke to Spook in a vision after he awoke following his flooding the canals of Urteau and escaping the fire at the Canton of Inquisition. For a time, Kelsier could only speak to Spook since Spook was the only one who believed in Kelsier as a deity, since Kelsier was a deity for a brief time, between Preservation's death and the coming of the Hero of Ages. {{annotation ref|mb3|chapter=64}} After Marsh removed Vin's earring, Kelsier was able to speak to her. {{annotation ref|mb3|chapter=72-2}}
