He is no scholar but is a full participant in the Diagram organization. He believes in the cause and is not afraid to speak his mind. {{book ref|sa3|122}} He is very supportive of the methods used by his organization to "save what they can" from [[Odium]], and considers themselves "the only victors of the day" when Taravangian is received in Jah Keved with cheers.{{book ref|sa2|i|14}}

== History ==
Once, on the day that Taravangian solved [[Fabrisan|Fabrisan's Conundrum]], Mrall had to have Taravangian locked up because Taravangian believed that it was reasonable to draft a law requiring all citizens below average intelligence commit suicide for the good of Kharbranth.{{book ref|sa2|i|14}}

Mrall accompanied Taravangian to [[Vedenar]] after the [[Veden civil war]] where Taravangian gained control of the Veden throne. When [[Szeth]] arrived to confront Taravangian, Mrall had his guards separate Taravangian from the Veden soldiers so Taravangian would not be associated with the Assassin in White. Mrall made excuses, claiming the king was old and overcome with grief. Mrall then brought Taravangian to see [[Highprince]] Valam on his deathbed.{{book ref|sa2|i|14}}

Mrall was later disturbed to see that Taravangian had made changes to the [[Diagram (literature)|Diagram]].{{book ref|sa3|i|5}}
After [[Dalinar Kholin]] did not yield to Odium at the [[Battle of Thaylen Field]], Mrall questioned the Diagram's accuracy, concerned that it might be flawed. Prior to Taravangian's meeting with Odium, he suggested drafting a change of plan.{{book ref|sa3|122}}

Mrall is Taravangian's bodyguard, but the king also considers him one of his closest and most loyal friends.{{book ref|sa3|122}} Not only is he close to the King himself, but is the final adjudicator of his daily capacity.
