=== Appearance ===

Adolin's hair is mostly blond with streaks of Alethi black running through it{{book ref|twok|15}} and it has been described as an unruly mop{{book ref|twok|28}}{{book ref|sa2|4}} and a stylish mess{{book ref|twok|58}}.

His beard was also blond speckled with black.{{book ref|sa2|66}} His eyes are blue{{book ref|twok|15}} and have an [[Wikipedia:Epicanthic fold|epicanthic fold]]{{wob ref|4079}}.
