Character from Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson
Wax's uncle and head of the Set — a calculating nobleman who sees family as leverage and conspiracy as the natural order of power.
Edwarn Ladrian, known by his Set codename Suit, is Wax's uncle and the secret head of the Set — a shadowy organization seeking to control Elendel through economic manipulation, Hemalurgic experimentation, and political corruption. He faked his own death to operate freely and has been manipulating House Ladrian's finances and Wax's life from behind the scenes. Suit is a schemer who believes in power through control and sees human society as a machine to be engineered. He has no Allomantic powers but wields influence, money, and ruthlessness as weapons more dangerous than any metal. Calculating, urbane, power-hungry. Believes himself the smartest person in any room. Treats family as assets to be leveraged. Patient schemer who plays long games. Dismissive of sentiment and loyalty as weaknesses.
Distinguished older nobleman with silver-streaked hair and expensive tailoring. Carries himself with aristocratic authority. Clean-shaven, sharp-featured, with cold intelligent eyes.
Also known as: Suit, Edwarn, Uncle Edwarn, Lord Ladrian
