Sixteen
Abilities Worldhopper
Residence Lasting Integrity
Homeworld Roshar
Universe Cosmere

Sixteen is an apparently human worldhopper[1] living in Lasting Integrity in Shadesmar.[2] His name is likely an alias inspired by the significance of the number sixteen within the cosmere.[3][4]

Appearance and Personality

He is short, bald man with pale skin and eyes that make him appear Shin, likely because of a lack of epicanthic folds. He walks with hunched back and wears a hooded robe to hide his appearance.[2]

Sixteen lives in a small box near the statue garden in Lasting Integrity. He leaves his home every sixteen days, a practice that amuses the honorspren due to his consistency. He brings no food, water, or waste out of or into it, and likely subsists by some means of Investiture.[2]

History

When Shallan Davar came to Lasting Integrity hunting Restares, she suspected that Sixteen was the man she was looking for. When the day came for Sixteen to leave his house, Shallan sat outside waiting for him to emerge. However, when she confronted him and pulled back his hood, she realized from his apparently Shin appearance that he was not Restares. Sixteen then shouted at her in a language she did not recognize, and fled back into his house.[2]

Trivia

  • Aside from confirming that Sixteen is a worldhopper, Brandon is not ready to say anything else about him yet.[1]
