'''His Story'''
Adien was from [[Kae]], born autistic.<ref>[http://www.brandonsanderson.com/annotation/84/Elantris-Chapter-60-3 Elantris, ch. 60-3 notations]</ref> Throughout his childhood, Adien moved in an awkward, stiff, uncontrolled manner. He constantly mumbled numbers (e.g. - distances to landmarks in feet)<ref>{{bref|elantris|c|5}}</ref> and words (e.g. - "Elantris")<ref>{{bref|elantris|c|8|name=Chapter 5}}</ref> to himself. Adien has a natural way with numbers, instinctively knowing how many strides exist between any two locations.<ref>{{bref|elantris|c|62}}</ref>
In his early teens, five years before Raoden heals Elantris, Adien is taken by the [[Shaod]].<ref>{{bref|elantris|c|60}}</ref> Unwilling to have him thrown into [[Elantris|Elantris (city)]], his family conceals Adien's condition with makeup<ref>{{bref|elantris|c|Epilogue}}</ref> and keeps him close to home. The makeup gives Adien a pale white complexion with a strange cast to his face.<ref>{{bref|elantris|c|5}}</ref> Because of his new condition, Adien spent much of his time sleeping.<ref>{{bref|elantris|c|5}}</ref> With his family's help, Adien accomplished the unprecedented feat of staving off becoming [[Hoed]] for those five years.
'''Future Role'''
Adien is the planned protagonist for [[Elantris 2]].
Adien is my planned hero for book two. I like the concept of a healed autistic being the hero of the next book. And, since he's so good with numbers, he would be incredibly powerful at AonDor (http://www.brandonsanderson.com/annotation/84/Elantris-Chapter-60-3)
