'''Highprince Ruthar'''
== Appearance and Personality ==
Ruthar is brawny and blue-eyed with a short black beard.{{book
==
Ruthar gained his position as highprince sometime before [[Gavilar]] united Alethkar. He was already married to [[Jayla Ruthar|Jayla]] and had his son [[Relis]] by 1145, when he fought on Gavilar's side against [[Kalanor]] and [[Gallam]], the latter of whom he killed to gain both [[Shardblade]] and [[Shardplate]] for Relis.{{book ref|sa3|26}}
After Gavilar's assassination and the subsequent swearing of the [[Vengeance Pact]], Ruthar and the other highprinces accompanied King [[Elhokar]] to the [[Shattered Plains]]. He and the others began to resent [[Dalinar]] for his easy access to and influence over the king.{{book ref|sa1|18}} [[Sadeas]] used this to inflame the other highprinces against Dalinar{{book ref|sa2|5}} and succeeded in enticing Ruthar into joining his plots to undermine Dalinar.{{book ref|sa2|29}}
As the Alethi went on plateau runs and fought skirmishes with the [[Parshendi]] over [[chasmfiend]] [[gemheart]]s, Ruthar and [[Roion]] teamed up on one particular run. [[Adolin]], on Dalinar's suggestion, accompanied them to lend them the power of another [[Shardbearer]] as a gesture of friendship, though Ruthar ended up blaming Adolin's and [[Jakamav]]'s "stunt" for the loss of the gemheart.{{book ref|sa2|26}} Sadeas also wanted to team up with Ruthar to use the excursion as an opportunity to scheme with the man,{{book ref|sa2|29}} and by the time of [[Shallan]]'s arrival to the warcamps, Ruthar and [[Aladar]] were solidly his allies.{{book ref|sa2|36}}

Ruthar balked at Elhokar's restrictions on the warcamps and, in a meeting with all the highprinces and the king, took the lead in vocalizing Sadeas' arguments and trying to persuade the neutral highprinces to join them. He also tried to hoodwink Shallan into accepting his hospitality, but she in turn manipulated [[Sebarial]] into accepting her into his household as Sebarial embarrassed Ruthar in front of the group.{{book ref|sa2|38}}
