'''Isabi''' is a young scholar on [[Roshar]].{{book ref|sa4|27}}
 
== Appearance and Personality ==
Isabi is one of the younger members of [[Navani]]'s team of scholars and [[ardent]]s in [[Urithiru]]. She is small in stature and looks her age; Navani thinks of her as a "girl".{{book ref|sa4|28}}{{book ref|sa4|37}} She has a curious mind.{{book ref|sa4|42}}
 
== Attributes and Abilities ==
Isabi is able to use a [[spanreed]], and can therefore read and write in [[women's script]]. She has received some training in engineering and the scientific method.{{book ref|sa4|28}} Despite her youth, Isabi seems to have the full trust of [[Falilar]] and Navani.{{book ref|sa4|37}}
 
== History ==
Isabi's early history is unknown, but she presumably moved to Urithiru at some point after the [[Battle of Narak]]. She is the daughter of an unspecified [[Windrunner]].{{book ref|sa4|28}}
Born the daughter of a [[Windrunner]], Isabi was apprenticed to [[Falilar]] and learned to be a scholar under his supervision. He worked with her to show her how to set up a scale so they could triangulate the [[Sibling]]'s location by measuring the weight of the [[spanreed]] they used to contact [[Navani Kholin]].{{book ref|sa4|28}} She approached Navani one day with the blinking spanreed when the Sibling wanted to talk to her;{{book ref|sa4|27}} while Navani was in contact with the spren, they rushed to different locations in [[Urithiru]] to take measurements.{{book ref|sa4|28}}
 
She became apprenticed to Falilar as a scholar. In {{Rosharan date|1175}}, Falilar worked with Isabi on a method to triangulate the location of a spanreed by placing the board on a scale to measure the very slight weight changes related to an inherent decay that affects a [[Fabrial#Conjoiners|conjoiner fabrial]]'s weight when it is in use.{{book ref|sa4|28}} Isabi was tasked with monitoring a mysterious spanreed that an unknown entity was using to contact Navani, and alerted Falilar and Navani when a message was coming in.{{book ref|sa4|27}} Isabi helped Falilar set up the measuring system while Navani was using the spanreed, and helped set it up again as the team rushed to a different location to take additional measurements. The experiment confirmed that the messages were coming from inside the tower; Navani suspected that the sender was a [[spren]].{{book ref|sa4|28}}
 
After deliberately losing her half of the devicemystery spanreed, Navani waited to see if the Siblingspren would send another ruby. When [[Dabbid]] showed up with a replacement, Navani intended to interrogate him, and asked Isabi to contact [[Kalami]] and ask her to attendassist an interrogation of the manher. As she sent the message, however, Isabi received news of the explosion caused by [[Talnah]] and [[Nem]] experimenting with the [[Gavilarblack sphere]]'s that [[blackGavilar]] spheregave to [[Szeth]].{{book ref|sa4|37}}
 
Navani eventually confirmed that she was corresponding with the [[Sibling]].{{book ref|sa4|39}} Isabi was with the group of scholars that accompanied Navani as she followed the Sibling's direction to a sapphire that, when infused, erected a magical barrier around the Sibling's [[Sibling#Crystal_Pillar|crystal pillar]]. thatThis prevented [[Raboniel]] wasfrom tryinginfusing tothe infusepillar with [[Voidlight]] to corrupt the spren.{{book ref|sa4|42}}
