'''Hanavanar''' is the king of [[Jah Keved]].{{book ref|b|twok|c|29}} He is assassinated by [[Szeth]]{{book ref|b|twok|i|69}} on the orders{{book ref|twok|i|6}} of King [[Taravangian]] of [[Kharbranth]] in order to cause political instability.{{book ref|b|twok|c|71}}

Hanavanar is on fairly good terms with the rulers of [[Alethkar]], good enough that Shallan believed that if her theft of [[Jasnah]]'s [[Soulcaster]] was discovered, he would have turned [[House Davar]] over to the Alethi for execution.{{book ref|b|twok|c|29}}

Hanavanar worewears a square, brown, beard, and a prominantprominent nose.{{book ref|b|twok|i|69}} A thick man, he hadhas a wide waist and shoulders.

Hanavanar is a rather clever man, smart enough to realize that he could be a potential target for Szeth, after three of the Veden highprinces wereare murdered. He is also wily enough to keep his [[Shardblade]] a secret, although some rumors managedmanage to get out. However, he severely underestimates Szeth's abilities, arrogantly assuming that he, two [[Shardbearer]]s, and guards wielding [[half-shard]]s would beare enough to defeat Szeth. He also grows frustrated easily, swearing at his men when they failedfail to kill Szeth quickly. Hanavanar also seems not to value the lives of his subjects and peers above his own; he sets a trap for an assassin known for committedcommitting massacres during a dinner party.
