The Order of Skybreakers was an order of the Knights Radiant on Roshar.

The Skybreakers were Surgebinders who used the two Surges of Gravitation and Division. To date, little detail has been revealed about this order.

Historical

They were the last order to be accepted by their chosen Herald, Nalan'Elin.

They also reportedly had some issues with the Windrunners. Syl, an Honorspren, mentioned to Kaladin that "Laws dont matter. Whats right matters." Highspren, and through them, the Skybreakers decide who is guilty or not, so Windrunners who disregard laws to do what is right may have started the disagreement.

Known Skybreakers

• The patron of the Skybreakers was Nalan.

• Szeth has become a Skybreaker after losing his Honorblade

Ideals of the Skybreakers

The Ideals of the Knights Radiant, also known as the Immortal Words, are a set of rules by which the Radiant lived. The First Ideal, identical for all orders of the Radiants, is used as their motto. Each of the Radiant Orders then had an additional four ideals that were unique to each order.

The First Ideal

“Life before death, strength before weakness, journey before destination.”

—The First Ideal of the Knights Radiant

Skybreakers and the Surges of Gravity and Division

The Skybreakers use the Surges of Gravitation and Division.

They reportebly had an ability unrelated to their Surges that was by some even considered to be an almost divine skill.

This page or section deals with theories or speculation.

Please read carefully and note that this is not necessarily canonical.

Their exact Powers are so far unknown, though it is likely that they were able to use a Basic Lashing and a Reverse Lashing like the Order of Windrunners, since they share the Gravity Surge.

Quotes

“And thus were the disturbances in the Revv toparchy quieted, when, upon their ceasing to prosecute their civil dissensions, Nalan'Elin betook himself to finally accept the Skybreakers who had named him their master, when initially he had spurned their advances and, in his own interests, refused to countenance that which he deemed a pursuit of vanity and annoyance; this was the last of the Heralds to admit to such patronage. —From Words of Radiance, chapter 5, page 17”

—

“There came also sixteen of the order of Windrunners, and with them a considerable number of squires, and finding in that place the Skybreakers dividing the innocent from the guilty, there ensued a great debate. —From Words of Radiance, chapter 28, page 3”

—

“The considerable abilities of the Skybreakers for making such amounted to an almost divine skill, for which no specific Surge or spren grants capacity, but however the order came to such an aptitude, the fact of it was real and acknowledged even by their rivals. —From Words of Radiance, chapter 28, page 3”
