Hanavanar was a rather clever man, smart enough to realize that he could be a potential target for Szeth, after three of the Veden highprinces were murdered. He was also wily enough to keep his [[Shardblade]] a secret, although some rumors managed to get out. However, he severely underestimated Szeth's abilities, arrogantly assuming that he, two [[Shardbearer]]s, and guards wielding [[half-shard]]s would be enough to defeat Szeth. He also grew frustrated easily, swearing at his men when they failed to kill Szeth quickly. Hanavanar also did not value the lives of his guests above his own, he set a trap for an assassin known for committed massacres during a dinner party.
