Blushweaver is considered the epitome of beauty. She has glossy black hair, pale skin and a lusciously curvaceous body.{{book ref|wb|7}} Though [[Mercystar]] is built more heavily and Blushweaver thin, both are considered to have a godly beauty.{{book ref|wb|23}} Since Returned look the way they believe they should look, Blushweaver therefore looks like what she perceives to be the ultimate in honest beauty.{{book ref|wb|epilogue}}
Like most Returned, Blushweaver has become decadent due to the nature of the [[Court of Gods]]: a group of servants follows her wherever she goes, meeting her every whim, and this has made her somewhat lazy and capricious. However, despite this, she is determined to improve the fate of Hallandren and takes her role as a god seriously enough to expend great effort to control the Hallandren military in order to preserve Hallandren.{{book ref|wb|7}}{{book ref|wb|17}} In no small part due to the length of her rule, she has become "one of the most dynamic figures in the court." <ref name="Warbreaker Chapter 7 Annotations">[https://www.brandonsanderson.com/annotation-warbreaker-chapter-seven/], Warbreaker Chapter 7 Annotations</ref>
Blushweaver directly urges [[Lightsong]] to action.{{book ref|wb|16}}{{book ref|wb|23}} When he suggests that they just allow the universe to take its course, she tells him to "fight it,"{{book ref|wb|14}} suggesting that she is not as lost as some of the other gods to boredom and indolence. She is witty and enjoys verbal sparring with him as well.{{wob ref|6713}} Lightsong additionally states that she is unlikely to engage with him without an ulterior motive, as her lengthy fifteen years as a Returned has made her incredibly wise and crafty.{{book ref|wb|7}}
