== Appearance and Personality ==
Adolin’s hair is mostly blond with streaks of Alethi black running through it{{ref|b|twok|c|15}} and it has been described as an unruly mop{{ref|b|twok|c|28}}{{ref|b|sa2|c|4}} and a stylish mess{{ref|b|twok|c|58}}. Despite the blond hair color he and Renarin share, they are both Dalinar's legitimate sons.{{17s ref|4254|66703|text=Are Renarin and Adolin Dalinar's legitimate children?}} It is, however, seen as a mark of their bloodline being impure. {{ref|b|sa2|c|38}} Kaladin believes Adolin's mother may in fact be from [[Rira (country)|Rira]] because his hair is mostly golden blond.{{ref|b|sa2|c|16}} Adolin prefers to remain clean shaven but he did grow a beard when he threw himself in jail in protest of Kaladin’s imprisonment. His beard was also blond speckled with black.{{ref|b|sa2|c|66}} His eyes are blue{{ref|b|twok|c|15}} and have an [[Wikipedia:Epicanthic fold|epicanthic fold]]{{qa ref|?|979|86|Reddit AMA 2013}}. He has been described as handsome on numerous occasions{{ref|b|twok|c|15}}{{ref|b|twok|c|46}}{{ref|b|sa2|c|49}} and as he is Alethi it can be surmised that his skin is tan in colour. There is some inconsistency given his height, being described as both shorter{{ref|b|twok|c|15}} and the same height{{ref|b|sa2|c|4}} as Dalinar. Shardplate adds a few inches to his height but he is not as tall as Kaladin.{{ref|b|sa2|c|16}}
 
Adolin is incredibly loyal to his father despite not always seeing eye-to-eye with him and is certainly unafraid to voice his opinions{{ref|b|twok|c|24}}. Despite his opposing views he remains steadfastly obedient, listening to his father and following the codes{{ref|b|twok|c|22}} even if he does not necessarily believe in them or wish to obey them. He shows an unwillingness to become the highprince when Dalinar considers stepping aside in favour of him, still intensely loyal to his father{{ref|b|twok|c|52}}. His skepticism surrounding the codes eventually changes and Adolin begins to understand their purpose. He grows to become a better leader because of this and at the same time he grows further away from the people he once considered to be friends{{ref|b|twok|c|58}}.
