== History ==
=== On Scadrial ===
Felt was born the third son of a minor nobleman during the [[Final Empire]] not long before its fall, and was used to working for a living.{{wob ref|7549}}{{wob ref|11890}}
He was one of the main spies for [[House Venture]]. He worked for [[Straff Venture]] before
▲He was one of the main spies for [[House Venture]]. He worked for [[Straff Venture]] before he fled Luthadel, and he subsequently worked for [[Elend]].{{wob ref|7549}} He spied on [[Kelsier's crew]]'s hideout and reported to Elend that they were a well-funded, competent [[skaa]] thieving crew.{{book ref|mb1|31}} His information caused Elend to realize that [[Valette Renoux]] was not what she seemed.{{book ref|mb1|31}}
During the [[Siege of Luthadel]], Felt was tasked with figuring out how the city was being infiltrated by someone who was poisoning food. He interrogated the refugees entering the city and the people running the [[Luthadel]] passwalls, but did not get very far. On a hunch, he had his men search the river and determined that someone had pried some drain grates free to create their own entrance into the city. Elend was pleased with Felt's competence and noticed that he took pleasure in his work. He resolved to utilize Felt's skills more often, including a possible assignment to find a [[kandra]] spy.{{book ref|mb2|42}}
Elend later noted that Felt was assigned to watch the [[Lord Ruler]]'s [[storage cavern]] in the east during the [[Siege of Fadrex City]].{{book ref|mb3|25}}
=== On Roshar ===
{{image|Entering the Valley by Marie Seeberger.jpg|side=right|width=350px|Felt leading [[Dalinar]] to the [[Valley]]}}
Felt was with Highprince [[Dalinar Kholin]] when he visited the [[Nightwatcher]] not long after the [[assassination of Gavilar]]. Dalinar trusted him, as Felt was one of only a few people that knew of the visit. Felt seemed to have some insight into the effects of the Nightwatcher, and cautioned Dalinar about visiting her. Felt had visited the Nightwatcher prior to his trip with Dalinar, but she did not show herself; he believed that this was because she did not like foreigners, especially someone as "foreign" as he was. He also chuckled at Dalinar's lack of knowledge regarding birds (or "chickens", as Dalinar called them). Felt was the first person to say [[
He took part in the [[War of Reckoning]], acting as an [[Alethi]] scout on the [[Shattered Plains]] who reported to [[Lyn]] during the [[Battle of Narak]]. He and [[Shim]] were sent to scout the plateaus surrounding [[Narak]] prior to the battle.{{book ref|sa2|81}}
Felt remained loyal to [[House Kholin]] during the [[True Desolation]], and was chosen to accompany Highprince [[Adolin Kholin]] and [[Shallan Davar]] on their journey through [[Shadesmar]] to [[Lasting Integrity]]. Adolin considered Felt's even temperament and scouting skills invaluable.{{book ref|sa4|21}} Felt monitored the movements of a group of [[Tukar]]i that were following the expedition, reporting on them to Adolin. He was surprised to see the intelligence exhibited by [[Gallant]] when Adolin needed assistance.{{book ref|sa4|35}} When Adolin was put on trial, Felt did not return to [[Urithiru]], instead staying in a camp near Lasting Integrity as part of Adolin's small support team.{{book ref|sa4|75}}▼

==Relationships==
===Malli===
Felt's wife [[Malli]] has been present with him during several important events, including his visit to the [[Valley]] with [[Dalinar]] and the expedition to [[Lasting Integrity]]. Malli is able to use a [[spanreed]] and write in [[women's script]], and can fulfill the role of a scribe on Felt's missions.{{book ref|sa3|114}}{{book ref|sa4|21}} Felt and Malli have only been seen together on [[Roshar]], and it is not known if she is a worldhopper or if she is even aware of Felt's abilities.
===Elend Venture===
Despite the fact that Felt originally worked for his father, Elend respects him and his opinions.{{book ref|mb1|31}} Because of the existence of [[kandra]] on Scadrial, it is difficult for Elend to fully trust anyone, but he has a very high level of confidence in Felt and gives him several important tasks.{{book ref|mb2|42}}{{book ref|mb3|25}}
===Kholin Family===
It is not clear how Felt came to know Dalinar, but by {{Rosharan date|1168}}, he was one of the Blackthorn's most trusted associates. Like Elend, Dalinar respects Felt and seeks his counsel despite Felt's relatively low social status.{{book ref|sa3|114}} Felt's skillset and personality have kept him close to Dalinar and his family, and he is considered a friend rather than just a subordinate. Adolin respects Felt in the same way that his father does.{{book ref|sa4|21}}
== Trivia ==
* Felt is not "currently" part of the [[Seventeenth Shard]].{{wob ref|11812}}
* Felt would still have an idea of how to get [[atium]], but would probably not be able to pull it off.{{wob ref|11896}}
