Brightlord Avarak Matal is a lighteyed officer on the Shattered Plains.He wears a sword at his side, mostly for fashion, and is nearly as tall as Kaladin, but spindly with delicate hands.
He captains the Sadeas warcamp bridge crews, but lets his wife Hashal deal with the slaves.[1][2] The only time he does any personal commanding without her is when he orders the bridge crews to form up and run before a plateau assault.[3] Hashal claims that he had asked to be assigned the captaincy of the bridge crews in order to see to it that they run smoothly and efficiently, but this is likely a fabrication.[1]
Matal is present when Kaladin attempts to use himself as a diversion by dressing in Parshendi remains in order to divert their attention from the bridge crews.He gives the order to charge and screams loudly at Kaladin when he realises something unexpected will happen, as it was how his predecessor Lamaril lost his place.Torol Sadeas assumes that he had approved Kaladins plan beforehand and mentions he will have to be promoted due to how well it worked.[4]
Matal later gives Kaladin and Bridge Four permission to leave Shen behind on bridge runs due to his foul temper and behaviour after he saw how they were going to treat the corpses of the Parshendi.[5]
Matal is later seen shouting orders when the horns sound before the Battle of the Tower.[3]
