'''Sigzil''' is an [[Azish]]
== Appearance and Personality ==
Despite being incredibly organized and studious, Sigzil thinks less of himself for failing the governmental service exams in Azir. After [[Kaladin]] remarks that he believes Azir lost out when they rejected Sigzil but that he is glad they did because it means [[Bridge Four]] gained him, Sigzil feels better about the exams. Likely as a result of growing up in Azir, where everything is well-organized, he prefers a clear relationship between himself and whoever he works for, and is somewhat bothered by the fact that his relationship with Kaladin is not a simple one of a clerk and his captain. He also expresses a need to figure out exactly what Bridge Four's chain of command is in regards to Alethi affairs after the beginnning of the [[True Desolation]].{{book ref|sa3|35}}
Sizil also has a judgmental streak, particuarly around disorderly people and when faced with other cultures' less organized and burecratic methods. While he was a Hoid's apprentice, Hoid tried to teach him to be less judgemental, and he tries to work on it.{{book ref|sa3|35}}

Sigzil was the first person in his family in generations to have a real chance at passing the governmental service tests in Azir. He is dismissive towards the idea that even as a commoner could pass the test thinking that a son of a laborer had little time to study given that he is not a civil servant in Azir it seems this is why he did not pass his tests. {{book ref|sa3|35}}▼
