Shob

From The Coppermind
Revision as of 17:40, 22 August 2020 by 172.69.23.73 (talk) (I don't think there's enough evidence to claim inconsistencies in his accent are "more likely" to be him faking it, he could just have a mixed accent. I reworded a bit to make the text more in-world)

Homeworld Roshar
Universe Cosmere

Shob is one of Shallan's men.[1][2] He is constantly saying that he has come down with something, saying to Shallan that he is dying, and then later tells Veil that he is coming down with something. He seems to exaggerate this, as he shows a so-called rash on his arm, when the arm is perfectly normal.[1][2]

He speaks in what appears to be a Bav accent,[fn 1] though some sentences come out in a neutral alethi voice.[2]

At some point in his life, Shob was in Sadeas' army on the Shattered Plains, but eventually decided to desert the army.[4] Glurv joined a band of deserters in the Frostlands which were lead by Vathah.[5] He was convinced to help defend Macob's caravan by Brightness Shallan Davar. This group roamed around stealing mostly food from travelers "just trying to stay alive and forget." according to Vathah.}[6]
