Posted

So i was just thinking about how no one has mentioned that wit has giant eyes so he probably does have an epicanthic fold, right? Hoid has added the fold into this disguise to make him seem normaler, right? Just wanna asess the accuracy of some fanart

Lightweaving.  What Hoid looks like in one situation does not determine how he looks in any other, besides certain stylistic choices.  (Namely, hooked nose, black or white hair, and insufferable conceit)

Which is to say that, on Roshar, Hoid probably does have an epicanthic fold on his eyes.

Yeah, he uses Lightweaving to blend in (for example, passing as Terris during the events of The Well of Ascension) and since everyone treats him as a lighteyes on Roshar that means he's got the epicanthic fold or someone would surely have commented on it by now. Whether he has it naturally or not we can't say, just as we can't say much about his real appearance. Though when he shows up in Secret History he clearly wasn't expecting company so if there's ever a time yet when we've seen him and he's not Lightweaving himself a disguise to some degree, that would be it. Which doesn't tell us much since 'angular features', 'sharp nose' and 'white hair' are pretty common in his guises as well.
