Iden recalls Kabal assassin. by Valourin Tuesday April 18, Year of Turmoil.

It seems that Iden is not done with the twins, now trapped in one avatar by his deeds, and has called back a servant of the Kabal from before the Loss to aid him. This Dreamer's name is Khalid and according to Brosh he was a "deadly assassin...from my time." She went on to say that he was rumored to be relentless and did not care about being collapsed in the interest of achieving his goals.

Just what are those goals, however? It has been widely assumed they deal with Qyadicia, perhaps though that is just what we are meant to believe. What is known is that he has attacked her on some occasions, though usually he seems to target her protectors. It could be that he is trying to discourage her protectors, or perhaps make the quiet Elder send them away for their own protection, we may not know unless someone Khalid trusts tells us. Preferring to use stealth and attacking unwary opponents and run when the battle is pitched against him, Khalid is definitely of a different sort than today's would be assassins. This makes him a threat no matter the goals of he and his master, in this reporters opinion.

Other noteworthy information about Khalid is his seeming penchant for cruelty. Fotowca, Ruler of the Radiance, was first to mention that he had recovered from Khalid a female dreamer essence whose features were frozen in terror, that was a source of insight for the assassin. It had been rumored that these were not Talismans at all but instead were really essences from tortured victims. Myridian Sun, another Ruler of the Radiance, said that in speaking to Khalid he was told that they were indeed from tortured females. He seems to use only poison chaks, and rumor is that he receives these directly from his master.
