== Appearance and Personality ==
According to Navani, Aesudan is politically competent,{{book ref|sa1|22}} howeverthough she is not a terribly nice person. She acts like Navani to make her uncomfortable,{{book ref|sa1|61}} and she also laughs at Dalinar Kholin when he is drunk during the treaty signing party.{{book ref|sa2|prologue}} She is also incredibly out of touch with her people, living a life of excess while her people suffer.{{book ref|sa2|i|12}} The canceling of the Beggar's Feast exemplifies how little she cares for the common people. The throne easily has enough resources to continue the tradition, but Aesudan does not seem to care.
 
For some reason, Aesudan is under the impression that the [[Almighty]] is displeased with her.{{book ref|sa2|i|12}} In order to gain his goodwill, she surrounds herself with many ardents, to whom she provides a vast array of luxuries: the finest foods, art, horseback riding, and leisure time. In return, the ardents promise her that living her life of wastefulness is the right thing to do, leading to an even greater disconnect between her and her people.
