|Parlin to Vivenna {{book ref|wb|9}}
}}
'''Parlin''' is an [[Idrian]] guardsman from [[Nalthis]]. He works as a hunter in Idris for much of his time, but accompanied [[Vivenna]] to [[Hallandren]] when she went to rescue [[Siri]].
== Appearance and Personality ==
== History ==
Before departing, Parlin was guarding the Northern Passes. He acts as [[Vivenna]]'s bodyguard when she goes secretly to [[T'Telir]] after her sister [[Siri]], and is several years Vivenna's senior. He was easy to convince and already knew the route, as he had scouted the wall a year before.{{book ref|wb|9}} ▼

Nevertheless, his skill at blending in with nature translates well to the city. Parlin adopts a brightly colored hat and vest in T'Telir, which Vivenna claims make him look ridiculous, but [[Denth]] points out simply make him look Hallandren{{book ref|wb|28}}. Parlin also takes a shine to [[Jewels]] at one point{{book ref|wb|33}} which sparks jealousy in Vivenna, though she refuses admit it when Denth brings it up.{{book ref|wb|28}}

* In early drafts of Warbreaker, Parlin was named Peprin and was much more bumbling and innocent. {{wob ref|6717}}
* If [[Brandon Sanderson]] could change anything about Warbreaker, it would be to make Parlin a more compelling character. His death should have been more impactful. {{book wob|7482}}
