Dalinar is nicknamed the “Blackthorn”, and is one the greatest generals of the Alethi. Due to his prowess in battle he has won many [[Shardplate]]s and [[Shardblade]]s in battle, and has gifted his King [[Elhokar Kholin]] with one of each. Dalinar must be restrained during [[highstorms]] because of the apparent fits that he enters into when they arrive. It is later revealed that the visions he sees during [[highstorms]] have been sent by [[Honor]], also known as the “Almighty” on [[Roshar]].
==Family==
Dalinar begins to court his sister-in-law, [[Navani]], who pursues and attempts to seduce him in [[The Way of Kings]]. Despite initial excuses that their marriage would be improper and frowned upon by those around them, Dalinar relents and admits his love for her. It is revealed that they courted when they were younger, but Dalinar’s “intensity” frightened [[Navani]] and she decided to marry his brother instead.
Dalinar was formerly married, but he was cursed by the [[Old Magic]] and can no longer remember her name. Whenever someone says her name, Dalinar hears only the sound of the wind, and if he ever encounters the name in any other manner, he cannot retain it in his mind.
