== Appearance and Personality ==
Ahan is very fat and has an air of arrogance about him, not seeming to take much seriously.{{book ref|Elantris|11}}{{book ref|Elantris|53}} He is impetuous to a fault,{{book ref|Elantris|53}} often speaking and acting without thinking.{{book ref|Elantris|32}} It seems that Ahan never quite understands the gravity of his situation until his actions lead to [[Roial]]'s death.{{book ref|elantris|53}} After this, Ahan falls into a deep depression born from self-loathing.{{book ref|elantris|epilogue}}

Things take a turn for the unexpected when Roial is killed for treason.{{book ref|Elantris|53}} Ahan never recovers from the guilt of his betrayal. He loses much of his weight, and thereafter only speaks in a dazed, sickly voice.{{book ref|Elantris|Epilogue}} ▼

Where his fortune fell within the Arelon system is unknown, but was no higher than fourth.{{book ref|elantris|8}} He shared a friendly rivalry with Duke [[Roial]] and was constantly trying to either outdo or oppose him.
