Riino is a man from Sel who serves as a lighthouse keeper and oracle near Kholinar in Shadesmar on Roshar. His name derives from Aon Rii. Riino is a follower of Shu-Korath, or at least has been heavily exposed to it, because he swears by Domi. He is bald and Kaladin is convinced that he is a Shin. Riino seems to be fairly cosmere-aware, mentioning being Invested, Heightenings, and Surgebinding.[1]
History
When Kaladin, Shallan, Adolin, and Azure accidentally enter Shadesmar, their travels bring them to Riino. Kaladin meets him first on a scouting mission, and Riino introduces himself as the Rii Oracle and offers to tell Kaladin's fortune during a highstorm. He has a large sphere filled with Stormlight that shows Kaladin visions during the highstorm when he puts his hand on it. Riino is surprised that Kaladin can see using the sphere, and guesses how Kaladin has access to Investiture. After Shallan, Adolin, and Azure arrive, Riino negotiates prices with them on supplies, and helps them get a ship to Celebrant.[1]
