—Words of Radiance

Adolin's Shardblade is a nameless Shardblade bonded to Adolin Kholin.

Appearance

The blade is shaped like a larger version of a standard longsword and bears some resemblance to the two the enormous two handed broadswords traditionally wielded by Horneaters. It's surface is smooth and sinuous, like an eel, with ridges of crystal at the back.. When summoned, the mist it forms from is in the shape of vines.

History

The shardblade was once the spren of an Edgedancer.

At some point before the beginning of the story Adolin dueled a lighteyes named Tinalar. Against everyone's expectations he won the duel and secured the blade as his own. He never named it, believing it had a name of it's own and that it would be pretentious to change it. Adolin often speaks to the shardblade and imagines that it listens to him. He believes that something that feels like an extension of the soul itself is impossible to wield without feeling as though it too is alive.

The shardblade was one of the shards placed on the line in Adolin and Dalinar's dueling campaign to disarm the Shardbearers of the Highprinces. The most important duel of these duels being the one against Relis, Elit, Abrobadar and Jakamav. It was also present at many battles, including the Battle of the Tower and the Battle of Narak.
