Ghostbloods
The Ghostbloods are a secret organization on Roshar.[1]
Presumably their objective is to seek information about the Desolations and the Parshendi. Because of that they put forth the failed attempt to assassinate Jasnah Kholin, who was their main rival in their search. A man identified with the Ghostbloods, was financing Lin Davar in his bid to become Highprince of Veden, Jah Keved. After an unknown Veden Shardbearer attacks Amaram, Amaram speculates that Thaidakar and the Ghostbloods are behind the attack.[2] The unknown shardbearer turns out to be Helaran Devar, Shallan's brother.
They own a tavern that had a basement and in it there was a great number of trophies, including several enormous gemhearts. There were also shells that Shallan vaguely recognized. That tusk was probably from a whitespine. And a eye socket, that looked frighteningly close to the structure of a santhid’s skull. A vial of pale sand. A couple of thick hairpins. A lock of golden hair. The branch of a tree with writing on it. A silver knife. An odd flower preserved in some kind of solution. There were no plaques to explain these mementos. A chunk of pale pink crystal looked like it might be some kind of gemstone.[3]
