Betha

Betha is the leader of the gang of thugs that have been hired by Sullik to protect All's Alley at Urithiru. She is a noblewoman with light brown eyes and of an unknown dahn.
She wears a havah that does not have a safehand sleeve and a glove that has been cut off at the knuckles.
She is aware of the Ghostbloods and recognises their symbol. She wants nothing to do with the group. She is calm when confronted and unfazed by violence, even against those she knows.
== History ==
Betha lived on the Shattered Plains then relocated to Urithiru following the Everstorm. She and her gang of thugs pursued and killed Ned after he killed both his wife and a barmaid from All's Alley. Betha was not surprised that Ned had killed his wife, and from her previous encounters with the man, expected he would eventually murder Rem. Betha and her group did not act against Ned until he killed a staff member of All's Alley, which they were hired to protect. If he had not killed the barmaid, Betha had planned to leave any actions against him to Aladar's police force.
Shallan approached Betha and her group while trying to find information on the murders that had occurred around the bar. Betha was uninterested in sharing information with Shallan and though she thought the other women was crazy for stabbing Ur, she was unfazed by the violence. She was, however, shaken when Shallan scratched the Ghostblood symbol in the bar table and promptly told Shallan how her group had killed Ned. After Shallan began leaving, she overheard Betha and her group talking about the murder of the barmaid. Shallan confronted the group again, Betha told her that the barmaid had been killed in the exact same place and exact same way as Rem, hence why they had gone after Ned.

Bethab

Highprince Bethab is a highprince of Alethkar on Roshar. His princedom is in the southwestern corner of Alethkar.
==Appearance and Personality==
Little is known of Bethab's appearance, other than the fact that he is lighteyed. His house colors are unknown.
Jasnah considers him to be a dullard. In fact, one of his smartest moves was marrying Mishinah for her political acumen. He lets his wife handle most important matters, rather than dealing with them himself. Bethab and Mishinah have a somewhat devious streak, as they have tried on several occasions to sneak language into contracts with the king that would give them favored claim in a succession. However, they know better than to try any trickery when Navani is around.
==Attributes and Abilities==
Although his princedom contains the sizable city of Karanak and appears to have an advantageous location where the Deathbend River empties into Mevan Bay, Bethab was not considered a major political player among the highprinces during the War of Reckoning. He is not well-respected, even among his own army, because he usually sends his wife to represent him at important meetings and functions.
Bethab does not maintain a well-organized army, instead preferring to use mercenaries. He shows little regard for the mercenaries, and often leaves the battlefield as soon as a gemheart is captured, making no effort to lead his army back to the warcamps. He owns a large number of chulls.
== History ==
===Shattered Plains===
Like the other highprinces, Bethab lived in his warcamp on the Shattered Plains during the War of Reckoning. His warcamp was located to the east of the palace, between Hatham and Sebarial's camps.
House Bethab was not closely aligned with House Kholin, although they were more uncooperative than openly antagonistic. When Dalinar wanted to ally with a highprince for a joint plateau assault, Bethab unsurprisingly turned him down by letting his wife give the refusal. He later relented and joined Dalinar on at least one successful plateau run, and also participated in a joint run with Thanadal.
He attended the feast at the Pinnacle after Dalinar's visions became public knowledge.
===Urithiru===
Bethab moved to the tower city of Urithiru after the Battle of Narak. Bethab appreciated Dalinar's leadership and eventually allied with House Kholin, although he continued to let his wife handle most matters. 
By the time Jasnah became Queen of Alethkar, Bethab had fallen into line with most of the other highprinces. He and Mishinah went to Thaylen City to serve as ambassadors there. Bethab proved useful, though not as much as his wife.

Bethab princedom

Bethab princedom is one of ten Alethi princedoms that form Alethkar. It has no house colors.
== Geography ==
It is located in the southwest of Alethkar, and shares boarders with Jah Keved to the west, the Frostlands to the south, the Eastern Crownlands to the east, Sebarial princedom to the north-east, and Hatham princedom to the north. It is the sole princedom with a connection to the Southern Depths, via Mevan Bay.
=== Locations ===
*Dumadari
*Karanak
*Mevan Bay
== History == 
Bethab princedom was one of the ten princedoms reunited into a single country under Gavilar Kholin. It is unknown whether Highprince Bethab fought for Gavilar or against him during the war for unification.
Dalinar's forces stop in Dumadari on their way to the Shattered Plains after the formation of the Vengeance Pact before sailing on to New Natanan. Dalinar used the voyage as a cover to travel to the Valley and seek the Nightwatcher. 
Jasnah Kholin was in residence in Dumadari for an unknown amount of time in . Shallan Davar travelled to the city to meet with the Alethi princess, however, by the time she arrived Jasnah had moved on.
== Politics ==
Brightlord Bethab is the current Highprince of this princedom. He has, on several occasions, when negotiating business contracts with the king, included language that would favor him for succession of the throne. Mishinah Bethab, the Highprince's wife, is also highly involved in Alethi politics and will represent his interests on occasion.
The Bethab army is made up predominately of mercenary companies.
It is implied that Dumadari is not well protected from raids via Mevan Bay.

Bevalis

Bevalis is the capital of Idris on Nalthis.
== Geography ==
Bevalis is located in a mountain valley, somewhere in the Idrian mountains. It is several weeks away from the southern farms, sometimes called the lower farms.
Bevalis is located in a cold climate, with only a brief time in the summer being warm.
== Appearance ==
Bevalis contains a number of thatched cottages. These houses have sturdy whitewashed stone walls. It’s roads are unpaved and muddy.
Bevalis contains only a few thousand people, barely making it a village when compared to the metropolises in other nations. Due to this the city is rather quiet.
=== Royal palace ===
As the capital of Idris Bevalis contains the royal palace. This palace serves as a meeting place and center of operations for the kingdom. The palace also serves as the living quarters of the Idrian Royal Family. 
The royal palace is a large, single storied building. It’s walls are squat and the palace has a peaked wooden roof. The Palace has two known entrances, the front entrance, and the back entrance, which leads to the palace kitchens. The palace also contains the royal stables, which are connected to a large courtyard of packed dirt. This courtyard has a gate leading to the outside.
There are often large crowds of haggling people near the front entrance. The palace also employs multiple stableboys and cooks. The palace is large enough to almost be considered flamboyant, although this can be forgiven as it functions as a meeting hall. 
== History ==
Bevalis was established at an unknown date. Sometime during the next three hundred years the Idrian Royal Family decided to make it their capital. 
A little over three hundred years after the Manywar General Yarda visited Bevalis carrying a bright pink letter. This letter said that the Idrians were expected to send a princess to Hallandren to be married to the God King.
A short time after this King Dedelin decided to send his youngest daughter, Sisirinah, to Hallandren. With her he sent a number of soldiers, a steward and a few serving boys, as well as the kingdom’s nicest carriage.

Beznk

Beznk is a Thaylen sailor on the Wind's Pleasure under Captain Tozbek on Roshar.
== History ==
He was part of the crew that sailed with Jasnah Kholin and Shallan Davar to the Shattered Plains. He was presumably a friend of his crewmate Yalb's, as Yalb made a joking comment about Shallan's backside to Beznk.
It is unclear if Beznk was one of the few survivors of the sinking of the Wind's Pleasure.
== Notes ==
Biblioden

Biblioden is the man who founded the Librarians with his teachings.
He believed that the real world was too strange and dangerous to be known about by the majority of people, and so it must be hidden from them. This lead to the mass censorship and alteration of history which the Librarians have accomplished in the present day. Not all the Librarians are in agreement on how his teachings should be followed, however. Most Librarians have no qualms about using Free Kingdomer technology -- they just believe it should be kept from the average person. The Order of the Shattered Lens take his teachings more literally and believe that all glass-based technology is blasphemy and should be destroyed on sight.
Biblioden is personally guilty of many atrocities, including killing Leavenworth and Attica Smedry in cold blood, sinking an entire island, and killing his own brother.
He was thought to be dead until rumors of the return of the Scrivener are heard. Instead of death, however, it turns out that he had merely put himself to sleep until the finalization of his plan for world unity was near. 
He has been posing as Dif, a Smedry cousin, for years, waiting for a chance to destroy the Smedry family from within.
He also sacrificed Attica to make a Bloodforged lens. It handles the power of the Incarna.
== Trivia ==
* His Smedry name is a reference to the Château d'If in France. This is not immediately clear until Draulin refers to him as "Lord D'if".
== Notes ==
Bidlel

Bidlel is a scribe in the Grand Indicium of Yeddaw in Tashikk on Roshar.
==History==
During Lift's time in Yeddaw, Nale's female Skybreaker apprentice tasked Bidlel's team with researching the city's records for any strange incidents, hoping to find evidence of a Surgebinder.
Lift later performed her own search for Surgebinders and deduced that Nale's team had probably done the same thing, and that she could try to follow their tracks. Although Tashikki scribes normally kept their clients private, Ghenna informed Lift of Bidlel's interaction with the Skybreaker due to Lift's royal backing from Yanagawn. Bidlel had already evacuated due to the coming Everstorm, so Lift and Wyndle attempted to find their office in room 232, but they encountered Szeth, Nale, and his Skybreaker apprentices on the way there.
== Notes ==
Bila

Bila is a Parshendi warrior in Narak on Roshar. She is Thude's mate for two weeks and is later part of a warpair with him under the command of Eshonai, in her personal division.
== History ==
During the time when the listeners only had three forms to choose from, Thude asked Bila to take mateform with him, and she agreed.
Later, during the War of Reckoning, Venli brought to the Council of Five a gemstone containing a captured stormspren. Eshonai then showed it to Thude and Bila, the latter of whom was skeptical and did not care about it unless it could help her to kill the Alethi. When Eshonai chastised her for her lack of concern over the connection between the ancient powers and their old gods, Bila almost reached the point of insubordination before Thude intervened by offering food.
When the time came for the listeners to take the new form, Bila and all of the rest of the soldiers agreed to do so. However, Thude expressed reservations to Eshonai about the way she was seizing control of the listeners. She gave permission to Thude to guard the group of dissenters, so he gathered Bila and the rest of Eshonai's old division to take charge of them. Not long after they took command of the dissenters, though, the whole group escaped into the chasms and fled Narak.
== Relationships ==
=== Thude ===
Bila and Thude enjoy a close relationship because of the two week time period they spend together in mateform; after that, they also fight as a warpair while in warform. Although Bila is at first a proponent of stormform, she presumably agrees with Thude in the end about the form's dangers and agrees to flee Narak with the group of those who refuse to take a form of power.
=== Eshonai ===
When Eshonai shows Bila the captured stormspren, she notes that Bila does not care about her people's origins or the origin of the power this new form promises; she is focused only on the war with the Alethi. This frightens Eshonai, who knows there are others who think the same way, discounting the danger of the solution in the face of the immediate threat posed by the humans.
== Notes ==
Bilg

Bilg is a skaa on Scadrial and a dissident member of both Yeden's army and Elend Venture's army.
== Appearance and Personality ==
Bilg is a big and brawny skaa, and wears a vest and full beard.
He has a short temper and is not afraid of a fight. He commonly questions the decisions of his military leaders, although he is clever enough to do it somewhat quietly. He seems to have some leadership qualities, as fellow soldiers follow his lead whenever he stirs up trouble. Although he questions the goals of the skaa rebellion, he would never sell out his fellow skaa to the Final Empire, he just wanted to stay alive. Ham believes that he causes trouble because he is fearful.
==Attributes and Abilities==
He is strong, an adept brawler, and one of the finest swordsmen in the army that Kelsier gathered for the skaa rebellion.
== History ==
=== Yeden's army ===
When Kelsier visited Yeden's skaa army gathered in the Arguois caverns, he wanted to make an example out of a known dissenter. He and Ham identified several candidates, and Kelsier focused on Bilg. As Kelsier gave a speech to a large gathering of skaa, he continually Rioted Bilg's emotions, provoking him to speak up against Kelsier and his plans. Kelsier ultimately challenged Bilg to duel Captain Demoux, and told him that he would be allowed to leave if he won the duel. Bilg accepted, especially since the young, undersized Demoux was no match for him. However, the duel lasted longer than expected because Kelsier assisted Demoux through Ironpulling and Steelpushing, eventually helping him break Bilg's arm. Kelsier attempted to kill Bilg through Demoux's hands, but the captain resisted delivering the final blow. Some servants rushed forward to help the wounded Bilg from the room.
=== Elend's army ===
Bilg survived the Collapse and joined Elend Venture's army. During the Siege of Fadrex City, Bilg was again a troublemaker. He and some fellow soldiers believed that the mistfallen were cursed and causing misery for the army. After an unhinged soldier named Midge incited a brawl between the mistfallen and the regular soldiers, Demoux—now a general—had to interfere. Bilg, who already had a grudge against Demoux, punched his general in the face just as Elend joined the scene and quelled the brawl by Soothing the participants. According to the law, Elend had to sentence Bilg to execution, despite Demoux's request for a lesser punishment.
== Trivia ==
* In the original draft of the The Final Empire, Bilg was successfully executed by Kelsier. Brandon thought this exhibited Kelsier's ruthless edge; however, some of his alpha readers—particularly Joshua Bilmes—felt that it was too harsh of an action for a main character. Brandon reluctantly changed the scene, and instead 'gave him what he deserved' in a later appearance.
* In the original published version of The Hero of Ages, Elend thinks that Bilg's name is "Brill". For this reason the cameo was hard to spot. This was changed in later editions, and Elend now correctly identifies him as Bilg.
== Notes ==
Billid

Billid is a Skybreaker on Roshar. He is presumably bonded to an unknown highspren.
He and a group of followers dissented with Nale's leadership, so they broke off from the Order. Billid said he had discovered "old Skybreaker oaths," a claim which Nale doubted at the time but later came to realize could have been true. Nale found through the centuries that he could usually persuade dissenters to return to the Order, but his failure with Billid caused Ishar to despise both Nale and the Skybreakers.
== Notes ==
Bisig

Bisig is a member of Bridge Four.
== Appearance and Personality ==
Bisig is thin with an angular face and doesn't speak much. Despite being quite reserved, he is close to becoming betrothed.
== Attributes and Abilities ==
As a Windrunner, Bisig has Surgebinding abilities, including healing powers and flight through the use of Basic Lashings. He has at least a basic knowledge of Towers, and thinks Rlain is good at the game due to his skill at bluffing.
== History ==
Bisig was a member of Bridge Four under Torol Sadeas; it is not known why he was assigned to bridge duty. He was the last member of Bridge Four to join in with the reforms that Kaladin brought, and likely only conformed because of Rock's and Teft's threats, not out of loyalty. After the crew gave Rock a razor as a gift, he was one of the two men to get hugged by the Horneater.
Bisig was one of the guards during the highstorm prior to the balcony collapsing on Elhokar, but was dismissed prior to the actual attack. When he got back to the barracks, he joined in with the others to discuss how they missed carrying their bridge. He and most of the rest of Bridge Four were among the expedition to find Stormseat. Bisig survived the Battle of Narak, although he lost the use of his right hand to a Shardblade wound during Szeth's attack on Dalinar.
His upcoming marriage was one of several situations that Sigzil brought up to Kaladin in order to get him to think about how he would accommodate the men as they branched out in different directions from being simple slaves. Bisig became a Windrunner squire to Kaladin along with the rest of Bridge Four, which granted him access to Stormlight and the ability to heal his hand injury. He crashed into the ceiling during practice one time while trying to imitate Lopen, prompting Skar to feel jealous of his ability to draw in Stormlight at all.
When Taravangian sent an assassin to recover Jezrien's Honorblade from Bridge Four, Bisig was badly wounded in the conflict, suffering another Shardblade injury, this time to his arm. He survived, however, and came to long enough to describe how the perpetrator had been wearing Teft's lieutenant's coat.
Bisig presumably joined in the offensive in Emul with most of the other Windrunners, and wasn’t present during the occupation of Urithiru. 
== Trivia ==
* Bisig is a cameo for a friend or family member of Brandon's. A possible inspiration is a couple named Geoff and Rachel Biesinger who are mentioned in the acknowledgements of The Way of Kings.

Bitterleaf

Bitterleaf is a plant on Roshar used as a medicine for epilepsy.
Chewing bitterleaf is believed to reduce the jerking and uncontrollable motion associated with epileptic seizures. It is unknown if it is helpful in treating other sorts of seizures.
Kaladin was familiar with the medicinal properties of bitterleaf. Brightlord Renarin Kholin was prescribed bitterleaf to chew for his seizures, but he did not believe that it helped much in treating them.
== Notes ==
Bjendal

Bjendal is a planet in the cosmere, and its system is considered one of the primary systems.
The Ghostbloods consider the planetary system of Bjendal to be of primary importance. In , interplanetary travel to Bjendal through the Cognitive Realm was disrupted, likely as a result of something happening to the perpendicularity on Bjendal.

Black Bear

The Black Bear is king of the Waelish. He has lived longer than a normal human lifetime, and is said to be immortal. Sefawynn says that "he took upon himself the curse of the land, binding it to his soul". It is said that he can only be killed by his own child, and he has no children. He has a sword that no one else can wield.
In the time of Ealstan's grandfather, the Black Bear led the Waelish in a war against the Weswarans. This was originally a simple fight between mortals, but the Bear corrupted the wights and commanded monsters, including the wolf Fenris, formerly bound by the warrior god Tiw. The war culminated in the battle of Badon.
The gods initially refused to intervene in the battle, fearing the end of the world, but eventually Friag appeared. Her boasts bound the Black Bear to his land. Fenris killed Friag but was bound to the hill of the Black Bear with her dying breath.
==Trivia==
The Black Bear is presumably this alternate dimension's version of King Arthur. In real-world legend, Arthur is generally associated with the Battle of Badon (a probably historical battle around 500 AD which pitted the Britons against the Saxons, just as this dimension's version was Waelish versus Weswarans). The name Arthur is sometimes suggested to come from a Celtic word for bear, and his special sword which no one else can wield (the Sword in the Stone) and the prophecy that he can only be killed by his own child (Mordred is, in many versions, Arthur's illegitimate son) also fit Arthur.
== Notes ==
Black Frayn

Black Frayn is an herbal stimulant used during the Final Empire on Scadrial. 
==Effects==
Black Frayn is a described as a "nasty drug" due to its addictive nature. It can be taken orally by ingesting its leaves. The drug makes one feels stronger and more alert, and can awaken someone rapidly. It also makes the body feel warm, warming the blood as if one was burning an Allomantic metal. 
==History==
Straff Venture's former mistress Amaranta serves as his herbalist; she is secretly working with Zane and administers Black Frayn to Straff over time, making him believe that he is being poisoned each time he experiences withdrawal symptoms. When Amaranta believes that Straff has driven Zane from his warcamp, she plans to withhold the drug and kill Straff as payback for his prior abandonment and for taking Zane away from her. Straff manages to summon his last bit of strength to kill Amaranta and ingest a variety of drugs, hoping that one of them will save his life. After waking up three days later, Straff eventually figures out that Black Frayn is the substance that he is addicted to. He believes that he can slowly wean himself off the drug, although he admits there are benefits to taking it.
== Notes ==
Black sphere

Gavilar Kholin, the former king of Alethkar on Roshar and a member of the Sons of Honor, possessed a collection of unusual spheres. Notably, he had several black spheres that glowed with a dark violet light.
* For the sphere he considered "most important" and gave to Szeth, see Anti-Voidlight
* For the sphere he gave to Eshonai, see Voidlight or Lights#Voidlight
A Bav worker named Took claimed to have stolen a similar dark sphere from the Nightwatcher. Took was known to exaggerate, and his story may be apocryphal.
==Trivia==
*The Anti-Voidlight sphere given to Szeth was first mentioned in the prologue of The Way of Kings in 2010. Fans often speculated about the contents of Szeth and Eshonai's spheres as subsequent books were released, usually theorizing that it was Voidlight or an Unmade. Brandon remained cagey on the subject and it was a decade until the contents of the spheres were confirmed in Rhythm of War.
