Brandon Sanderson is the real-world author of The Stormlight Archive rather than a character within its story. His name surfaces in The Way of Kings only as a mention, with no narrative role, relationships, or arc. In Rhythm of War he is credited as the source of an epigraph quote, again standing outside the in-world events. Across the series his presence stays authorial and paratextual, not a figure who develops on the page.
