| Homeworld | Roshar |
Nale is one of the ten Heralds of The Almighty on Roshar.
In the Vorin tradition he is referred to as "Nalan".
He was associated with the number Nan, the essence Vapor, and the attributes Just and Confident.[1]
He was the Patron of the Order of Skybreakers of the Knights Radiant.
During the events of the Stormlight Archive, a person claiming to be Nalan revived Szeth after his confrontation with Kaladin above the Shattered Plains. Nalan recruited Szeth into the Skybreakers, as well as giving Szeth a new sword, one that is understood to be the Awakened Nalthian blade Nightblood. [2]
Appearance and Personality
Nale has dark skin and a crescent-shaped scar on his cheek. He appears to be the man who killed Ym[3] and the one who hunted Lift, who referred to him as "Darkness." He wears dark clothing with polished silver buttons which gleam in the streetlight.[4]
He has some sort of connection or obsession with order and will go to extreme lengths to ensure he doesn't break any laws of the land he is in. He also hunts down new Radiants for some unexplained reason. He tried to kill both Lift and Ym, but only within the boundaries of the law. Thus, in order to kill Ym, he first found him guilty of a murder he committed in his youth. Similarly, with Lift, he appointed himself a lawman under Azir law and filled out the paperwork required to execute her for her crimes of thievery. After she was pardoned by the new Vizier of Azir, Gawx, Nale was frustrated as he was forced to release her and could not pursue her any longer.
He was seemingly impressed with Szeth's steadfast adherence to his Shin traditions, despite knowing that his Truthlessness is in error, and so gave Szeth a new blade and mission.
