Parlin is an Idrian guardsman from Nalthis.
He is the son of General Yarda, and is the man King Dedelin would have married Vivenna to had she not been promised to the God King.[1]
He acts as Vivenna's bodyguard when she goes secretly to T'Telir after her sister, and is several years Vivenna's senior[1].
Parlin is quiet, an accomplished hunter who prefers forests and animals to cities and people[1]. Nevertheless, his skill at blending in with nature translates well to the city; Parlin adopts a brightly colored hat and vest in T'Telir, which Vivenna claims make him look ridiculous, but Denth points out simply make him look Hallandren[2]. Parlin takes a shine to Jewels at one point[3].
He is tortured to death by the mercenary Tonk Fah when Denth believes Vivenna has run away[4].
