Narm begins as one of the bridgemen in Kaladin’s crew, doing the rough work expected of a man in his position. He is tasked with making a fire from what little is available, and later appears among the men enduring camp life and its taunts. In battle, he shows an aptitude for scouting, watching Parshendi movements and setting off to find useful vantage points. The text gives him no elaborate personal arc, but his shift between labor and observation makes him a capable presence within the crew.
Description
Narm is a male bridgeman, but the text supplies no specific details about his height, build, coloring, hair, eyes, or facial features. When described, he wears simple bridgeman clothing: practical, unadorned garments suited to hard work. His presence is defined by the alert, functional demeanor of a man accustomed to demanding tasks. No distinctive scars, accessories, or other features are noted.
