Sigzil is clean-shaven with dark brown skin and thick, curly black hair.{{book ref|sa1|14}}{{book ref|sa1|40}} He is considered average height in Azir, which makes him short compared to most [[Alethi]]. He has a [[Bridge Four]] tattoo on his forehead covering the place where he used to be branded with a slave mark.{{book ref|sa3|35}}
Sigzil tends to be quiet and close-mouthed,{{book ref|sa1|40}} though when he embraces his role as a [[Worldsinger]], he displays deep knowledge of a variety of cultures and speaks openly and volubly.{{book ref|sa1|55}} He seems to enjoy deep conversations, especially when conducted one-on-one, and has a formal way of speaking.{{book ref|sa1|40}} He also has a judgmental streak, particularly around disorderly people
Despite being incredibly organized and studious, Sigzil thinks less of himself for failing the governmental service exams in Azir. Likely as a result of growing up in
Despite his penchant for keeping this organized, Sigzil is not content with only being a clerk, and wants to be the "first into the sky," rather than spending all his time poring over ledgers.{{book ref|sa3|35}} He is encouraging and optimistic to his friends.{{book ref|sa3|46}}{{book ref|sa4|79}}
== Attributes and Abilities ==
Sigzil has been trained with the spear and spearman tactics by Kaladin, and he uses the weapon "acceptably."{{book ref|sa2|12}} He can read and write the Azish script, though out of deference to Alethi ideals he sticks with using glyphs to record written reports as Bridge Four's clerk.{{book ref|sa3|35}} His understanding of other cultures, ability to work easily with numbers, and his level-headedness are all assets to the [[Order of Windrunners]].{{book ref|sa4|6}}
He has bonded an [[honorspren]]{{book ref|sa4|19}} and has sworn at least the [[Order of Windrunners#The Third Ideal|Third Ideal]] of the Order of Windrunners,{{book ref|sa3.5|Epilogue}} which allows him to draw in [[Stormlight]] and use the [[Surge]]s of [[Surgebinding#Gravitation|Gravitation]] and [[Surgebinding#Adhesion|Adhesion]].{{book ref|sa3|35}}{{book ref|sa3|55}}
== History ==
Shortly after, Ishar fled through another perpendicularity into [[Shadesmar]]. Sigzil and the others waited in the sky above the camp, then descended again when it seemed obvious that Ishar was not immediately coming back. They poked through the Herald's tent among several odd corpses covered in sheets, and Sigzil found a ledger detailing his experiments: records recounting how long each [[spren]] had lived in the body the Herald had created for it in the [[Physical Realm]]. Appalled, the group fled back their camp in Emul.{{book ref|sa4|111}}
== Relationships ==
=== Kaladin ===
At first, Sigzil despises what Kaladin tries to do to help [[Bridge Four]], but he slowly warms up to his efforts.{{book ref|sa1|27}}{{book ref|sa1|40}} Eventually Sigzil looks up to [[Kaladin]] and is glad to help him with the administrative side of training the [[bridgemen]] and later the [[Windrunners]], though he wishes his relationship with Kaladin were more clear cut. Kaladin helps Sigzil see that failing the exams in [[Azir]] isn't such a bad thing, as he is now with a group of people who really appreciate him; Sigzil realizes that he is glad he found his way to Bridge Four.{{book ref|sa3|35}} Kaladin listens when Sigzil speaks, finding himself remembering later things that Sigzil had told him about different parts of the world.{{book ref|sa4|80}} Kaladin feels confident enough in Sigzil to name him one of the first lieutenants and later to transfer command of the Windrunners to him after his retirement.{{book ref|sa2|2}}{{book ref|sa4|15}} [[Odium]] exploits Kaladin's care for Sigzil by showing him visions of Sigzil fighting other members of Bridge Four and telling him with his dying breaths that he should have let the rest of them just die on the [[Shattered Plains]].{{book ref|sa4|46}}
