'''Hanavanar''' is the king of [[Jah Keved]].{{book ref|sa1|29}} He is assassinated by [[Szeth]] on {{Rosharan date|1173|9|1|4}}{{book ref|sa1|i|9}}{{ref|name=obtime}} on the orders{{book ref|sa1|i|6}} of King [[Taravangian]] of [[Kharbranth]] in order to cause political instability.{{book ref|sa1|71}}
Hanavanar is on good enough terms with the rulers of [[Alethkar]] that [[Balat]] believes that discovery of [[Shallan]]'s theft of [[Jasnah]]'s [[Soulcaster]] would cause Hanavanar to turn [[House Davar]] over to the Alethi for execution.{{book ref|sa1|29}} However, he and most other Vedens hold a personal grudge against [[Dalinar Kholin]].{{book ref|sa4|19}}
King Hanavanar spent years of his reign setting his highprinces against each other.{{book ref|sa4|19}} He bonded a [[Shardblade]] secretly at some point, and although he never admitted to it, some rumors of his Blade leaked out. When his highprinces began dying at [[Szeth]]'s hands, he realized he might be the assassin's next target and devised a trap for him at one of his feasts.{{book ref|sa1|i|9}}
Following King Hanavanar's death, the [[lighteyes]] of [[Jah Keved]] began fighting a succession war until [[Valam]] took the throne.{{book ref|sa2|31}}{{book ref|sa2|i|14}} His death also inadvertently contributed to the formation of the [[coalition of monarchs]] with [[Taravangian]], who was willing to work with [[Dalinar]], as Jah Keved's king.{{book ref|sa4|19}}
