Szeth is roughly thirty-five years old at the start of the [[True Desolation]]. Like all [[Shin]], he's short and pale-skinned, with large, round eyes lacking the epicanthic fold that most [[Roshar]]ans possess. Normally, his eyes are dark green, but they change to pale sapphire whenever he summons Jezrien's [[Honorblade]],{{book theyref|sa1|i|3}}{{book changeref|sa2.5|8}} toand paleglow sapphirelight grey when he holds Stormlight as a Skybreaker.{{book ref|sa1sa3|i|3117}} His hair is naturally brown,{{book ref|sa2.5|89}} Hebut he shaves his head often, mentioning that he's unable to grow a full head of hair.{{book ref|sa3|90}}
 
As the Assassin, Szeth always wears white. While this originally stemmed from [[listener]] customs, [[Taravangian]] had him keep the outfit as a symbol.{{book ref|sa1|prologue}}{{book ref|sa1|i|9}} Even after he stops following his [[Oathstone]], he continues to wear white.{{book ref|sa4|16}} Following his death and subsequent revival, his soul was improperly attached to his body, leaving him with a ghostly white afterimage that can be seen by anyone with sufficient [[Investiture]], such as [[Lift]] or the Skybreakers.{{book ref|sa2.5|9}}{{book ref|sa3|90}}{{wob ref|2563}}
