Tien is Kaladin's younger brother.[1] He has a mix of unruly brown and black hair, and is small for his age. He has a fixation with rocks, and always seems to find beauty in them.
In Hearthstone, he is apprenticed to a carpenter named Ral. Tien habitually makes intricate carvings, and is distracted from the more "useful" work easily.
He is pressed into Brightlord Amaram's army by Brightlord Roshone when he is thirteen. Amaram promises his parents that Tien will be a messenger, but he is later put on the battlefield when there is a shortage of regular soldiers. Without any training and unable to use a spear correctly, Tien is killed by an enemy lighteyes officer four months after being drafted.
