Template:CharacterInfobox Hoid is a recurring character in Brandon Sanderson's adult fiction novels. Although his appearance varies from world to world, and even from book to book within a world, Brandon Sanderson has confirmed that all the instances of Hoid are, in fact, one individual, linked to the larger universe (the Cosmere). Currently, any theories as to the role that Hoid plays in the meta-mythology are purely speculation. For more discussion of these theories, see the forum pages.

Minor Appearances

The Stormlight Archive

In a departure from his previous appearances, Hoid plays a relatively major role in The Way of Kings. Most often referred to as "Wit", Hoid plays a key role in the development of both Kaladin and Dalinar. His longest dialog to date occurs in Chapter 57 of The Way of Kings, but the promise of additional appearances to come is reinforced by his appearance in the very last chapter of the book.
