'''Susebron''' is the God King of [[Hallandren]] on [[Nalthis]]{{book ref|wb|2}} around 300 years after the [[Manywar]].
He wasis a [[Returned]] and hadis togiven betwo givenor amore [[Breath]]s every week by his subjects in order to keep him alive{{book ref|wb|29}}. He, as a Returned, lookedlooks much younger than he really wasis, which wasis around 50 years at the time of the events recorded in [[Warbreaker]]{{book ref|wb|36}}.
He resided, mostly alone, in the black palace that was given to the God Kings. Despite having beenbeing the official ruler of Hallandren, he was kept away from its people and other Returned, only coming out briefly on special occasions. This was to hide that his tongue havinghad been cut out, by his priests when he first returnedReturned, by his priests so he could not use his [[AwakeningPeacegiver's Treasure|Awakengreat wealth]] of Breaths with [[Command]]s{{book ref|wb|40}} (andas he had not been taught to awaken[[Awakening|Awaken]] with a thought). He hadhas over tenfifty thousand Breaths; his inheritance from the first God King and those who followed.
During the events of Warbreaker, Susebron married [[Siri]] in order to preserve the peace between Hallandren and [[Idris]]. At first he feared Siri, uncertain of why she spent her nights waiting, naked, on his floor. When they finally began speaking (as best he could without his tongue), his innocence, from atgrowing beingup in a virtual prison, was revealed. Siri taught Susebron to read using a story book of his [[Susebron's mother|mother's]]{{book ref|wb|20}} that he had 'hidden' from his priests{{annotation ref|Warbreaker|chapter=24}}. He and Siri eventually fell in love and she began to plan how to reveal to the other gods that he had no tongue.
The [[Pahn Kahl]] [[Pahn Kahl rebellion|attack]] of the [[Court of the Gods]] saw him imprisoned in his own palace. Here he was given back his tongue when [[Lightsong]] gave up his divine [[BioChromaBioChromatic Breath|Breath]] to heal him{{book ref|wb|57}}. As Susebron had so many breaths he was able to awakenAwaken instinctively now that he could speak. He freed his palace from the Pahn Kahl invaders and saved Siri{{book ref|wb|58}}.
Susebron continued to reside in his palace with Siri after saving her homeland, Idris, from the [[lifelessLifeless]] army using [[Kalad's Phantoms]].
He is the fifth God King in the three hundred years since the [[Manywar]].{{book ref|wb|32}}
