As a Returned, Yesteel can have the Fifth Heightening whenever he desires, and all the effects that implies, such as agelessness.{{book ref|wb|prologue}}{{book ref|wb|part=ars}} Like Vasher and Denth, Yesteel probably is well aware how to hide his divine Breath and appear as he wishes.{{wob ref|6808}}
 
Yesteel is very skilled at sneaking around, a fact which Nightblood knows of and mentions to [[Vivenna]].{{book ref|wb|55}} This could mean that Yesteel is especially good at surpressing his divine Breath and shaping himself to whatever he needs. At the very least, he is much better at stealth than Vasher and [[Vivenna]].{{wob ref|7403}}
 
As one of the Five Scholars, Yesteel is extremely knowledgable about [[Awakening]], and he is an expert in [[Lifeless]] Commands. Jewels seems to believe that Yesteel could bring back the memories of Arsteel's Lifeless body, which is far beyond Vasher's capabilities of working with Lifeless.{{wob ref|7471}} He invents [[ichor-alcohol]] during the Manywar,{{book ref|wb|epilogue}} and around the time of the [[Pahn Kahl rebellion]], he has devised a stronger form of the substance.{{book ref|wb|epilogue}} Despite Yesteel's knowledge of Lifeless, he didn't create the original Command to make Lifeless with a single Breath--Shashara did.{{book ref|wb|53}}
 
He knows Shashara's secret on how to make Awakened swords.{{wob ref|7357}} However, it's unclear if he knows how to make swords on the power level of Nightblood, or more on the level of [[Vivenna's Blade]].
 
Yesteel's current Heightening is unclear, but if he discovered advanced Lifeless Commands, he had to have at least attained the Seventh Heightening at some point.{{book ref|wb|part=ars}}
 
==History==
 
===Return and Scholar===
Like all of the Five Scholars, Yesteel was a [[Returned]].{{wob ref|5839}} It's unclear how both himhe and his brother, Arsteel, Returned and how they know that they are brothers. Since Returning, they lack memories of their past life.
 
He joined the Five Scholars, and there was a golden age in discovering [[Awakening]] Commands for several years. Among them, Yesteel was considered a master of Lifeless Commands.{{wob ref|7471}} Unfortunately, these discoveries were part of the reason for the [[Manywar]], such as [[Shashara]]'s discovery of a Command that could create a Lifeless with a single [[Breath]].{{book ref|wb|32}}{{book ref|wb|53}}
 
{{sidequote
| Shashara had been spurred on by the knowledge that she’d been shown up by Yesteel and the development of ichor-alcohol. She had studied, experimented, practiced. And she’d done it. She’d learned to forge the Breath of a thousand people into a piece of steel, Awaken it to sentience, and give it a Command.

In the aftermath of the Pahn Kahl rebellion, [[Jewels]] sought out Yesteel, bringing Arsteel's Lifeless corpse. Jewels hoped that Yesteel, with his mastery of Lifeless, could help bring back some of Arsteel's personality and memories.{{wob ref|7471}}
