Szeth

Szeth, formerly Szeth-son-son-Vallano or Szeth-son-Neturo, Truthless of Shinovar, is a Shin man from Roshar. He is the infamous Assassin in White and is responsible for the death of Gavilar Kholin kickstarting the War of Reckoning.  As the Assassin, he wields Jezrien's Honorblade; eventually, he loses it, and is gifted Nightblood.  Nightblood is the same sword seen in the Warbreaker series, on a different planet, and it's unknown how this sword got to Roshar, however this should be explained in the book Nightblood, the fourthcoming sequel to Warbreaker.  
After tracking down one of his targets, the King, it turned out that he was the one who held his oathstone.  After that, he decided to change his ways, becoming Szeth a Skybreaker in the Night's Radiant of the Third Ideal, serving Dalinar Kholin.  He intends to return to Shinovar and bring justice to the ones who exiled him as his Fourth Skybreaker Ideal quest.  
==Trivia==
*Szeth's death was subject to a continuity change. In the original hardcover edition of Words of Radiance, Szeth was killed by Kaladin driving Syl as a Shardblade into his chest, severing his spine. Brandon felt this was out of character for Kaladin, and changed the text with the release of the paperback edition of the book. Szeth's death now occurred when he unbonded his Blade and fell through the Highstorm.  
*Brandon wrote Szeth's scenes in The Way of Kings while listening to Daft Punk.  
*Brandon considers Nightblood and Szeth to be one of the more terrifying pairings in the cosmere.  
*In The Way of Kings and Words of Radiance, every chapter written exclusively from Szeth's point of view begins with the phrase "Szeth-son-son-Vallano, Truthless of Shinovar..." In Oathbringer, the phrase is dropped for "Szeth of Shinovar" and then "Szeth of the Skybreakers".
