'''Mraize''' is a member of the [[Ghostbloods]] on Roshar. He is a Rosharan born{{wob ref|14217}} [[worldhopper]]{{wob ref|1394}} and might be in possession of [[Tears of Edgli]], among other artifacts. His name is unknown, as the term "Mraize" is a title, not a name. He corrects [[Shallan]] when she attempts to call him 'Brightlord.' Shallan mentions that the title ‘Mraize’ is not Vorin in origin, and difficult to pronounce. As he also refers to [[Iyatil]] as his [[babsk]], a Thaylen title, it is evidenced that he is from [[Thaylenah]].{{book ref|sa2|43}}{{wob ref|10403}}

== Attributes and Abilities ==
Mraize is a worldhopper. His power resides
Mraize has an [[Mraize's Aviar|Aviar]] with an unknown ability.{{wob ref|8176}}
Mraize also seems to have an uncanny ability to sense the presence of others.{{book ref|sa4|13}} Whether this is due to his having enough [[BioChromatic_Breath|Breath]] to have reached the [[Heightening#Fourth_Heightening|Fourth Heightening]] or to some other, more mundane means is unclear. Mraize always watches doors.
As a member of the Ghostbloods, Mraize is seeking a way to get [[Investiture]] off-world through [[Shadesmar]]. They hunt the [[Sons of Honor]] as they fear they are close to discovering the secret of making this possible. They are not interested in seeing [[Odium]] rule Roshar.{{book ref|sa4|13}}
== History ==
===Early Life===
Mraize was born on Roshar in an unknown year in Thaylenah.{{wob ref|14217}}{{wob ref|11821}}{{wob ref|10403}}
At some point, he became a member of the [[Ghostbloods]], and has been to various different planets,{{wob ref|11821}}{{wob ref|1394}} and has collected trophies where he went.{{book ref|sa2|43}} One of these is known to be an [[Aether]].{{wob ref|12395}}{{wob ref|12314}}{{wob ref|15429}} He also at some point bonded with an [[Aviar]].{{book ref|sa3|22}}{{wob ref|8807}}
=== The Shattered Plains ===
Mraize, as a member of the
After that, he was also confirmed to have surveilled the site to supervise the task. He was pleased when he saw Veil again; he initially thought she had not completed her task, but she delivered maps and some texts from Amaram. He was also amazed with her drawing skills and deduced that she had killed Tyn. Mraize offered her the opportunity to be part of the organization, but explicitly said that she was not in yet, and that killing people within the organization was not encouraged at all. On her way out, she decided not to take the coach and hid; she later found that they had killed her coachman during a failed attempt on her life.{{book ref|sa2|54}}

[[Shallan]] brokered a deal with [[Sja-anat]] to have
Mraize met with Shallan at [[Urithiru]] as Gobby. He asked her to hunt [[Restares]], leader of the [[Sons of Honor]], in [[Lasting Integrity]]. In return, he offered to tell her everything, and allow her to ask any question. He also offered her the choice to leave the Ghostbloods, and promised he and his babsk ([[Iyatil]]) would not hunt her and would discourage other Ghostbloods from doing so. Mraize informs Shallan that he has a spy close to her, a practice he
While Shallan travelled to [[Lasting Integrity]], she worked to identify Mraize's spy, planting misinformation amongst her [[Unseen Court]].{{book ref|sa4|26}} Mraize mistakenly confirms the misinformation from [[Beryl]], though it is later discovered that he obtained this while spying on communications between [[Pattern]] and [[Wit]].{{book ref|sa4|78}}
In [[Lasting Integrity]], Shallan sought out [[Restares]], confirming with Mraize for any suspicious humans, and he ruled them out one by one.{{book ref|sa4|75}} Shallan was upset Mraize withheld information, when she discovered Restares was actually the [[Herald]] [[Kelek]].{{book ref|sa4|82}} Mraize had hidden a [[raysium]] dagger within the communication cube. Mraize asked Shallan to collect [[Kelek]]'s soul, and in return, she'd become a full member of the Ghostbloods. He argued that the Heralds abandoned the [[Oathpact]] and even though they knew the [[Fused]] were back, they either hid or helped hasten the desolation. This would also give Shallan the opportunity to impersonate [[Kelek]] to save [[Adolin]] from the [[honorspren]]'s judgment.{{book ref|sa4|82}}
Shallan decided not to kill Kelek and informed Mraize that she was quitting the Ghostbloods. With Kelek's help, Shallan freed [[Ala]], who acted like an abused child from her time with Mraize. Kelek believed [[deadeye]] spren did not exist before the [[Recreance]], and this was why Mraize hunted him. Shallan told him to leave [[Urithiru]] and that she'd hunt the gemstone containing [[Ba-Ado-Mishram]]. She also passed on a message from [[Hoid]] for Thaidakar. Mraize warned her that she'd made an enemy of the most powerful organization in the
== Relationships ==
=== Iyatil ===
At first glance, [[Iyatil]] seems to be one of Mraize's lackeys, and a fellow Ghostbloods member, or perhaps his second-in-command. She is the one who follows Shallan while Mraize is investigating her, and presumably reports back to him. However, with Shallan, Iyatil mentions that he is her student, not her master, making her a viable candidate for his babsk.{{book ref|sa2|63}}{{wob ref|1394}}
