'''Tvlakv''' is a [[Thaylen]] slave trader on [[Roshar]].{{book ref|sa1|2}}
He has been previously married, a number of times.{{book ref|sa1|4}}
 
He brings [[Kaladin]] and a number of other slaves to the [[Shattered Plains]], where he sells them in [[Shattered Plains|Sadeas's warcamp]] for use in their [[bridge crew]]s.{{book ref|sa1|6}}
 
Months after selling [[Kaladin]] into slavery, Tvlakv is in camp with [[Bluth]] and [[Tag]] when [[Shallan]] approaches and falls unconscious, exhausted from her time on her own after the shipwreck. He wakes [[Shallan]] up the next morning and tells her they will be leaving, and she requests to travel with them. In doing so, she turns them back around to travel back north to the Shattered Plains.{{book ref|sa2|11}} During this time he gives her a minimal amount of comfort and care in order to make her more dependent upon his services, not even affording her proper shoes. Although she originally thought to use him as an escort, he instead thinks that he will be selling her off to the ones who are expecting her at the Shattered Plains.{{book ref|sa2|15}}

During her first confrontation with him, Shallan mentions that if he does as requested and takes her safely to the Shattered Plains he will "be freed." Although she was guessing at the time, it appears that she guessed well and he had been in some kind of deep debt or indentured servitude.{{book ref|sa2|15}}
At this stage [[Shallan]] takes off to recruit these men to their side.{{book ref|sa2|20}} Tvlakv survives the battle, after which [[Shallan]] takes the 5 slaves remaining to him and buys the third wagon for 5 sapphire broams, leaving him incredibly insulted and he leaves to return south again.She does not take his [[parshmen]] however.{{book ref|sa2|21}}
