'''Paladar''' is a highlord from [[Alethkar]] on [[Roshar]]. He is a relative of Highprince [[Loradar Vamah]] and rules [[Vamah princedom]] as regent.{{book ref|sa3|45}}
==Appearance and Personality==
Paladar is tall and bald.{{book ref|sa3|45}} He is lighteyed, and his title as highlord implies that he is of the third [[dahn]]. He is known to be greedy, corrupt, and notoriously harsh.{{book ref|sa3|45}}
==History==
Paladar is among the human population that is enslaved after the [[singers]] capture Revolar in 1174. However, unlike many of the other lighteyed prisoners, Paladar is able to exert his influence over fellow captives and set himself up as a leader, avoiding labor while retaining access to food and resources. Ultimately, his goal is to restore his place within the city.{{book ref|sa3|45}} He is particularly interested in finding soldiers to recruit from amongst the captives and also holds sway over a number of darkeyed guards and merchants.{{book ref|sa3|45}} The caravaneers captured by the singers work under Paladar's directive, despite their past dislike for him.{{book ref|sa3|45}} ▼
===Regent of Vamah Princedom===
Paladar holds power over Vamah princedom as regent both during and immediately following the [[War of Reckoning]], while Highprince Vamah is in the warcamps on the [[Shattered Plains]].{{book ref|sa3|45}} He lives in [[Revolar]], the largest city and seat of power in Vamah princedom.{{book ref|sa3|23}}
Revolar suffers under his leadership due to his greed. Many [[darkeyes]] who attempt to travel to the city are driven away, despite holding the [[right of travel]].{{book ref|sa3|45}} [[Moash]], who hails from [[Kholinar]], frequently visits Revolar with caravans and notes that Paladar's corrupt policies are well-known.{{book ref|sa3|45}}
