=== Appearance ===
Khriss has brown skin, being from the Darkside of Taldain. She has brown eyes and wears her hair in braids. While on Dayside, Khriss wears a pair of dark, heavy sunglasses as she is not used to the sunlight of Dayside. She also wears a wide-brimmed hat to keep the sun's rays from her face.{{book ref|ws|3|review=yes}}
=== Personality ===
Khriss is a university-educated scholar and is extremely inquisitive. She seeks to understand and find scientific explanations for all that she can. She believes in freedom of information, and is willing to assist any who come to her for help if she perceives their intentions to be good.{{wob ref|180}}

=== Taldain ===
Khriss was engaged for a time to [[Gevalden]]--or Gevin, as he preferred in informal settings{{book ref|ws|5}}--a Prince of Elis. Before their wedding, Gevalden traveled to Dayside in search of the mythical Sand Mages, where he was shot by [[Dynasty]] assassins. His linguist and assistant, [[Wilheln]], wrote to Khriss to report on his death
Khriss, determined to seek out what her fiancé was trying to discover, traveled to Dayside with [[Baon]], [[Allstren Cynder]], and [[Jon Acron]] and some Elisian soldiers.{{book ref|ws|prologue}} They arrived in the [[Kerztian]] port of [[Dosha-Har'Ken]], on the northwest coast of Dayside, and purchased supplies from a merchant that spoke Dynastic, who also offered the services of his nephew [[Daazk]] as a guide to [[Lossand]].{{book ref|ws|prologue}}
==== Crisis in the Diem ====
She met [[Kenton]] shortly after the Kerztian attack on the [[Sand_mastery|sand master]]s,{{book ref|ws|3}} and he agreed to be her guide to Lossand's capital, [[Kezare]], where they parted ways.{{book ref|ws|4}} In the Darksider district of [[Lonzare]] Khriss met with [[Loaten]] and attempted to get answers about Gevin's attempt to contact the sand mages, but their meeting was inturrpted by [[Nilto]].{{book ref|ws|5}} She then sought the [[Taisha]], assuming Gevin would have met with them, but failed to get meetings with any of the Taishin before finally discovering Kenton was the [[Taishin#The Lord Mastrell|Lord Mastrell]].{{book ref|ws|6}}

{{sidequote
Khriss and [[Nazh]] were discovered by [[Kelsier]] in the [[Cognitive Realm]] of [[Scadrial]] in {{date|1023|fe}}. The pair enlightened Kelsier on how the events on Scadrial were affecting the cosmere. They remained quite vague as to why they were there - although Khriss mentioned wanting to see what the death of a Shard looks like - or about other events elsewhere in the cosmere that were unrelated to the current conflict. Khriss refused his requests for help and they left abruptly after Kelsier told them of his meeting with [[Hoid|Drifter]].{{msh ref|3|2}} Since then, she has worked with Kelsier on research at least once.{{wob ref|14891}}
=== The True Desolation ===
Over three centuries later, she appeared at a party in [[New Seran]] in post-[[Catacendre]] Scadrial, {{date|342|FA}}.{{book ref|mb6|12}} There she stole a dance with [[Waxillium Ladrian]] and asked him questions about his powers and how they related to physics. She was also mentioned in a broadsheet ad, telling people who hear talking tools to contact Khriss and Nazh.{{article ref|The New Ascendancy}}▼
On Roshar, over three centuries after the [[Catacendre]], around and during the [[True Desolation]], she took an interest in various figures and concepts. Including fledgling Radiants, such as [[Kaladin]] and [[Shallan Davar]];{{file ref|Frostlands map.jpeg|Frostlands Map}}{{file ref|Bridge_Four_tattoos_page.jpeg|Bridge Four Tattoos}} in the nature of Vorin [[glyphs]],{{file ref|Alethi Glyphs Page 1.jpg|Alethi Glyphs: Page One}}{{file ref|Alethi Glyphs Page 2.jpg|Alethi Glyphs: Page Two}}{{file ref|Bridge_Four_tattoos_page.jpeg|Bridge Four Tattoos}}{{file ref|Scroll_of_Stances.jpeg|Scroll of Stances}} in the pattern of the [[Shattered Plains]],{{file ref|Shattered Plains WoR map.jpeg| Shattered Plains Map}} and of the Rosharan subastral.{{file ref|Sea_of_Lost_Lights.jpg|Sea of Lost Lights Map}}{{file ref|Sea of Souls.jpg|Sea of Souls Map}}
It is unclear if she travelled to Roshar herself, or if she sent Nazh to the planet alone.
