Nazh on Rosharan System During WoR

[MistbornAlpaca]

This is 3 or 4 questions in one, so bear with me here. I'm sure someone else has noticed this, but I just started rereading WoR, and on the page that has sketches of Bridge Four's tattoos, there's a note that reads, "I had to spend hours watching bridgemen to sketch their stupid forehead glyphs so you could have them, my friend. I'm pretty sure this is how they were designed. -Nazh" So, Nazh is on Roshar during WoR. Do we know which character he is posing as/does he appear on screen? Also, why does Khriss(I'm assuming he's writing to Khriss, but correct me if I'm wrong) want to see the glyphs of Bridge Four? By these sketches, Nazh also seems to be fairly talented at art, is there any other Cosmere art we know of that's drawn by him?

Rock shoos away an ardent who is drawing the tattoos. That is Nazh

 

I am not sure exactly what pieces are his, but some of the maps and other cosmere pictures are confirmed to be his work.

There are a couple in Elantris 10th anniversary edition by him if I remember correctly.

Information Gathering. Possibly even the same reason we wanted them(Harakeke's translation guide). Consider her actions:

• She had Nazh recover Shallan's notebook from the bottom of the ocean, and we got the page with drawings of Pattern.
• She made him nick a scroll on some of the Alethi Combat Stances.
• Nazh grabbed the Everstorm-Highstorm artwork and Ketek from Navani's notebook.
• He's done a few maps, Sel, Elantris specifically and possibly also Elendel.
• Khriss writes the Ars Arcanum, and asks Wax about his powers relating to physics.

She wants information of all kinds, without any specific overarching themes, probably for an overall compendium.

I present to you: Khrissalla, author of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Cosmere.
