Personality
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 were murdered. He is also wily enough to keep his Shardblade a secret, although some rumors managed to get out. However, he severely underestimates Szeth's abilities, arrogantly assuming that he, two Shardbearers, and guards wielding half-shards would be enough to defeat Szeth. He also grows frustrated easily, swearing at his men when they failed 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 committed massacres during a dinner party.
