'''Lyn''' is an [[Alethi]] scout and, later, a [[Windrunner]] [[squire]] on [[Roshar]].{{book ref|sa3|46}}
 
She's interested in pursuing the masculine arts, and dislikes being treated as incapable of fighting just because she's a woman. She's disappointed when [[Shallan]] informs her that a [[Knights Radiant|Radiant]] can be feminine, and when Kaladin suggests that Lyn can serve as a secretary, she's furious with him.{{book ref|sa3|8}}{{book ref|sa3|35}} She's impatient and eager, and wants to take the fight to the enemy rather than wait for it to come to her.{{book ref|sa3|35}}{{book ref|sa3|46}} She's also good at making friends, sliding into the [[Bridge Four]] group without any problems, and appreciates good art.{{book ref|sa3|111}}{{book ref|sa3|8}} She can keep a cool head in stressful situations, and take charge when necessary.{{book ref|sa3|29}}{{book ref|sa3|i|14}}

Lyn is one of [[Kaladin]]'s [[squire]]s, allowing her to heal herself with [[stormlight]], as well as use the [[Surge]]s of [[Gravitation]] and [[Adhesion]], but only when he's nearby. While she's not shown using the latter, she is capable of flying by the time of the [[Battle of Thaylen Field]].{{book ref|sa3|120}} As a scout, she was armed with a knife, and presumably knew how to use it.{{book ref|sa3|70}} After joining Bridge Four, she begins to use a spear, although she's still, by her own admission, only a beginner.{{book ref|sa3|111}} She's also capable of drawing what she'd scouted from memory, although her artwork prioritizes speed over quality.{{book ref|sa2|81}}
