}}

He is short, bald, and has large, round eyes like most Shin, which normally are dark green, but change to pale sapphire when he summons his [[Shardblade]].{{book ref|sa1|i|3}}

 

 

Szeth loathes himself after his many killings and blasphemies. His madness was not healed as he hears whispers. Nin called it the effect of Szeth's connection to the powers, and said that he was hearing trembles from the Spiritual Realm. Memories of the dead he'd killed. He doesn't fear them, but still weeps. {{book ref|sa3|90}}

=== Shardblade ===

Szeth possessed an Honorblade that was long and thin, edged on both sides. It was smaller than most others. Being bonded to this blade granted Szeth the abilities of a Windrunner. Hence why Szeth had no bond to a spren. After losing his Honorblade, Szeth was presented with [[Nightblood]].{{book ref|sa2|88}}

=== Sword Nimi or [[Nightblood]] ===

Szeth is given a sword by Nale wich he calls Nimi. This sword, which is also known as [[Nightblood]] talks to him in his mind and can read his thoughts. Szeth was warned not to draw it except in case of extreme emergency and only if he carry much Stormlight, lest it will feed upon his soul. {{book ref|sa2|90}}

 

 

Szeth draws the sword twice. The first time in the Purelake. When he drew the sword, he heard a rushing sound, like thousand screams. Colors changed around him. They deepened, growing darker and more vibrant. It shouted DESTROY!. Liquid darkness flowed from the Blade, and then melted to smoke as it fell. Flesh and blood puffed instantly into black smoke. This sword seemed to sear away even the man's soul. He was able to ram it back into its silvery sheath. {{book ref|sa3|92}} The second time, it almost consumed him and Lift, this happened at the Battle of Thaylan. {{book ref|sa3|118}}
