'''Kwaan''' was a [[Worldbringer]] of [[Terris]] prior to the [[Final Empire]] on [[Scadrial]].
== Attributes and Abilities ==
Kwaan was a full Feruchemist. He was a Scholar, and used his Abilities mostly to aid him in his Studies. He had an eidetic memory and didn't need a Coppermind to remember full pages of text.
== History ==
He was the first among them to proclaim [[Alendi]] as the [[Hero of Ages]], a figure foretold in Terris prophecy. However, his [[Wikipedia: eidetic memory| eidetic memory]] allowed him to remember the prophecy without resorting to his copperminds, which could be manipulated by Ruin. He began to notice discrepancies between the two versions caused by the meddling hand of [[Ruin]]. He realized that releasing the power at the Well of Ascension would allow Ruin to be free once more so he sent his nephew [[Rashek]] to prevent this from occurring.
Kwaan was among the members of the First Generation of [[kandra]] who were offered immortality by Rashek during [[Ascension of the Lord Ruler|his Ascension]]. Kwaan refused the offer, believing it to be a betrayal of who they were as a people. Rashek attempted to destroy him in anger, but was unable to do so due to wielding [[Preservation]]'s power. Kwaan remained human, fleeing and going into hiding. Rashek eventually hunted him down and executed him.{{wob ref|5764}}
== Studies ==
Kwaan was a [[Realmatic Theory|Realmatic]] scholar. Alendi notes in [[Alendi's logbook|his logbook]] that the Worldbringer was trying to figure out whether trees had a [[Cognitive Realm|Cognitive aspect]] when they first met, at the great [[Khlenni]] library.{{epigraph ref|mb1|19}}{{wob ref|3968}}
