Adolin's hair is mostly blond, with streaks of Alethi black running through it;{{book ref|sa1|15}} the blond color comes from [[Evi Kholin|his mother]] and is seen as a sign of his bloodline being impure by some Alethi.{{book ref|sa2|38}} His hair has been described as an unruly mop{{book ref|sa1|28}}{{book ref|sa2|4}} and a stylish mess.{{book ref|sa1|58}} Adolin prefers to remain clean-shaven, but he does grow a beard after throwing himself in jail in protest of Kaladin's imprisonment. His beard was also blond speckled with black.{{book ref|sa2|66}} His eyes are blue{{book ref|sa1|15}} and have an [[Wikipedia:Epicanthic fold|epicanthic fold]].{{wob ref|4079}} He has been described as handsome on numerous occasions{{book ref|sa1|15}}{{book ref|sa1|46}}{{book ref|sa2|49}} and, as he is Alethi, it can be surmised that his skin is tan in color. However, because he is half-[[Riran]], his skin tone is lighter than his father's.{{wob ref|3932}} There is some inconsistency as to Adolin's height; he is described as both shorter{{book ref|sa1|15}} and the same height{{book ref|sa2|4}} as Dalinar.

=== Personality ===
Adolin went on to greet Notum, and discovered the honorspren had punished and exiled him for the help he had rendered the Radiants in their earlier voyage. When Adolin told him of his mission, Notum was shocked and tried to discourage him as he deemed it a futile effort. Notum explained you didn't normalize relations with a thief, and the humans had stolen Syl. Adolin countered it was her free choice, and if they cared so much about her they should perhaps have listened to her. Maya reacted to this with a growl. While he looked at Maya, Notum predicted that the envoy would be turned away instantly when reaching Lasting Integrity because of what humans did to the spren. The highprince countered that they had done nothing to them and it was thousands of years ago, to which Notum remarked that was not even a lifetime for many spren. Notum asked Adolin if they had managed to save the bondsmith. He couldn't lie and so admitted it was the bondsmith who had saved them.{{book ref|sa4|30}}
