Interview #826: Mistborn: The Final Empire Annotations, Entry #26

Brandon Sanderson

I was a little worried about Ham when I first started writing him. The warrior philosopher is, perhaps, a character that you’ve seen before. In this case, I knew I wanted a character who could be a foil for Breeze. Since Breeze tends to be arrogant, long-winded, and manipulative, I came up with someone humble, long-winded, and kindly. Mix in a desire to understand the world, and a mind that thinks about things a little differently from others, and I had Ham. I think he turned out all right.
