Teleb was a lighteyed officer in Dalinar's warcamp on Roshar.[2]
He was straight-backed and had light-green eyes. He had long hair and a blue tattoo on his cheek, marking his as an Oldblood. He was married to Kalami. He was described as being as literal as rocks.[3]
He was Dalinar's highofficer on duty when a chasmfiend was detected crawling up on a plateau only two hours away. When Dalinar decided to march, Teleb was sent for Adolin.
Teleb also suggested to Dalinar to think about using man-carried bridges to reach a contested plateau faster but not using them for the assault itself. Though Dalinar hesitated about this idea he told Teleb he may train one bridge crew for this purpose.[2] Because the chull-drawn bridges would be needed for the assault furthermore Teleb tried to design a new kind of bridge but his first attempt failed and the bridge didn't stand the weight of the chulls.[3]
When Dalinar returned after the Battle of the Tower he sent a message to Teleb that he should bring the entire camp to alert, preparing for anything though Dalinar hoped that it wouldn't be needed.[4]
He was killed during the Battle of Narak[1], his blade recovered by captain Khal.[5]
