'''Numuhukumakiaki'aialunamor''', shortened to '''Lunamor''' or simply '''Rock''', is an [[Unkalaki]] on [[Roshar]]. He was the fourth born son in his family and received combat training per Unkalaki customs; however, one of his brothers died, making him the third son and a craftsman instead of a warrior.{{book ref|sa1|49}}{{book ref|sa3|37}} He calls himself Rock because he doesn't believe others can pronounce his real name, which is actually a poem about a very special rock his father discovered the day before Rock's birth.{{book ref|sa1|27}} The poem roughly translates to "I saw a beautiful wet stone that no one is paying attention to, but it was really cool because of the water pattern on it".{{wob ref|4584}}

== Appearance and Personality ==
{{image|Rock Evan Teuteberg.jpg|side=left|width=200px}}
{{for|/Gallery|more images}}
Rock is a large, well-built man standing at nearly seven feet tall with thick limbs and a powerful torso. He is a few inches taller than [[Kaladin]] and nearly twice as broad.{{book ref|sa2|46}}

He has tan skin and deep red hair.{{book ref|sa1|14}} When he can shave, he leaves long, red-blond sideburns, but shaves his chin and lip.{{book ref|sa1|40}} He also keeps his hair cropped close, and shaved entirely from directly above his eyebrows up the center of his head.{{book ref|sa1|46}} 

The same as all of [[Bridge Four]], Rock has a set of glyphs tattooed on his forehead, signifying his freedom and membership to the bridge crew.{{book ref|sa2|2}}

}}

Rock is very outwardly emotional, often being as quick to laugh as he is to show sadness. He is very supportive, with various members of [[Bridge Four]] speaking to him for advice.{{book ref|sa3|37}} He is very loyal to those who have shown him trust and kindness, being one of the first to follow Kaladin after he takes his place during a bridge run.{{book ref|sa1|17}} His love and trust for those close to him was enough for him to go against his position and commit violent acts if he sees it as necessary, killing  [[Amaram]] to save Kaladin, even knowing he would be punished for it.{{book ref|sa1|49}}{{book ref|sa3|120}}{{book ref|sa4|12}}

He expresses great pride at his abilities to cook, refusing to allow anyone to alter his stew for Bridge Four.{{cite}} He is extremely respectful to spren, to [[Syl]]'s delight and Kaladin's annoyance.{{book ref|sa1|23}}

== Attributes and Abilities ==
He can see [[spren]], or ''mafah’liki'' in the Unkalaki tongue, in the Physical Realm even when they do not want to appear to him. Horneaters call people with this ability ''[[Sighted|alaii’iku]]''. It is implied there are other people like him. Rock has given conflicting reports on the origin of his blessing, saying that he was born with it but also that [[Cultivation's Perpendicularity|the waters of life]] are involved with him having this ability.{{book ref|sa1|21}}{{book ref|sa2|46}} In addition, he can slightly perceive the form of [[spren]] in the Cognitive Realm, as when he perceives the larger aspect of anticipationspren in Shadesmar.{{book ref|sa3|37}} 

His ''alaii’iku'' condition doesn't grant him a privileged position within Unkalaki culture, as Rock is still bound to his duty towards his nuatoma, and it didn't prevent him from having to do the work of a fourth son, and later that of a third son.{{book ref|sa3|37}} He is quite proficient in archery due to his birth status as a fourth son, though he no longer considers himself a soldier since the death of his brother.{{book ref|sa3|37}} He refuses to fight because being a soldier is not considered an esteemed profession in Unkalaki culture.{{book ref|sa1|49}}

Rock is an exceptional cook, having always shown an interest in cooking even before his elevation to third son, making bread with his mother as soon as he could reach the countertops.{{book ref|sa3|37}} He cooks stew every day for Bridge Four as part of Kaladin's efforts to bring life back to the crew.{{book ref|sa1|27}} He is capable of preparing Horneater drinks, making [[Shiki]] for Bridge Four.{{book ref|sa3|37}} He is able to eat various harder foods due to his Horneater heritage, possessing extra jaw pieces that allow him to eat shells.{{wob ref|3922}}

Rock is incredibly strong even considering his large and powerful frame, as he was able to use a Shardbow with proficiency without wearing [[Shardplate]].{{book ref|sa3|120}} These bows are described as having draw weights so huge that only men in Shardplate could use them. His daughter mentions that in the past, spren "strengthened his arm when he drew the Bow of Hours in the Peaks," which may provide an explanation;{{book ref|dawnshard|16}} it is unclear which spren were responsible for this.

Rock can also listen to a faint beat his mother used to sing to, an ability reminiscent of [[singer]] [[Rhythm]]s but of unknown relation. It is also unknown if this is a consequence of him being ''alaii’iku''.{{book ref|sa3|37}}

Along with [[Lopen]] and [[Huio]] he is one of the only members of Bridge Four that can swim.{{book ref|sa3.5|3}}

== History ==
=== Early Life ===
Rock was born in the [[Horneater Peaks]] as the fourth son of his family. He was trained in combat with both the spear and bow. He expressed an early affinity for cooking, joining his mother in making bread from a young age. Rock met his future wife [[Tuaka]] as a child where they built snow forts together, although Rock believes hers were always the best. Prior to Rock's departure to [[Alethkar]] and the [[Shattered Plains]], they married and had six children.{{cite}}

At some point one of his elder brothers died, elevating him to third son and allowing him to follow his passion as a craftsmen, with specific regards to cooking.

===The Shattered Plains===
====Challenge for Shards====
He traveled to the [[Shattered Plains]] with [[Kef'ha]], his ''[[nuatoma]]'', in the hopes of gaining [[Shardplate]] and [[Shardblade]] for his people. Kef'ha challenged [[Torol Sadeas]] to a duel because he believed it would be easier to first gain the Shardplate, then try for a Shardblade. After Sadeas won and killed Kef'ha, Rock and his entourage became servants to Sadeas.{{book ref|sa3|37}}

Sadeas used Rock as a cook. Rock prepared one meal for him in which he put [[chull]] dung in the soup and the bread, used it as a garnish on the pork steak, and made a chutney out of it for the buttered garams because he was angry about Kef'ha's death. He was then sent to the [[bridge crew]]s and subsequently became a member of [[Bridge Four]].{{book ref|sa1|23}}

{{image|Alone Together by Derek Murphy.jpg|side=left|width=250px|Rock the cook}}

====Early Bridge Four ====
Rock joined the bridge crews in early {{Rosharan date|1173}} and spent several months there before [[Kaladin]] was appointed his new bridgeleader.{{book ref|sa1|11}}{{book ref|sa1|14}} The next morning when Kaladin claimed that Bridge Four would never lose another man, Rock laughed at Kaladin and refused to practice carrying the bridge.{{book ref|sa1|14}} Rock bet the other bridgemen a few chips that Kaladin was carrying a lightweight board to practice and was surprised when he was proven wrong. Later that day on a bridge run, Kaladin took Rock's place at the deathpoint of the bridge during the final approach. Rock was surprised by Kaladin's decision, but accepted. After the bridge was placed, Rock took shelter behind a rock formation. When Kaladin struggled to save an injured [[Dabbid]], Rock followed and carried the man back to shelter himself. He and Teft went out again to save a badly wounded [[Leyten]] as well. After Kaladin had treated them, Rock warned Kaladin that injured bridgemen who could not walk must be left behind and that Gaz would not allow them to save Leyten and Dabbid.{{book ref|sa1|17}}

Later he offered some of his food to feed the wounded and assisted Kaladin and Teft with collecting [[knobweed|knobweed sap]], utilizing his ability to see [[Syl]] to quickly find more stems to gather. Syl tricked Rock by leading him to a pile of chull dung during this exercise, which he didn't understand due to his reverence of spren.{{book ref|sa1|23}} They sold some of the knobweed sap they gathered, in return for bandages and a skymark per bottle. That same day Bridge Four was assigned to [[War of Reckoning#Chasm Duty|chasm duty]], where Rock helped to build rapport with the other members of the bridge crew and successfully brought Dunny into the conversation, having discovered he could sing. With the help of Syl, Rock and Dunny discovered more bodies in the caverns, being those of the Parshendi. They discovered that their armor was part of their bodies. That evening, Rock and Kaladin bought a cauldron and food with the money they gained, and Rock cooked a stew of which every member of the bridge crew partook. After this, most of the bridgemen started training with Kaladin.{{book ref|sa1|27}}

====Side Carry Maneuver====
Rock and Teft helped influence the last members of the bridge crew to fall under Kaladin's leadership. They joined in doing exercises from Kaladin's time in the military, before practicing carrying the bridges as strength training. Kaladin suggested carrying the bridge on its side as a way to train more muscles and Rock participated in attempting the maneuver.{{book ref|sa1|30}} Bridge Four gained a new member with [[Lopen]], a one-armed Herdazian. Alongside Dabbid, he carried a stretcher with several water canteens for the bridge crew to use on a run. With the three of them, the start of the non-combative section of the crew was started. Immediately after Lopen had joined, Bridge Four was sent on the next plateau assault, arriving after the Parshendi were fully set up. Kaladin ordered the crew to attempt the side carry maneuver, which resulted in no loss of life to Bridge Four, causing Rock to celebrate. However, the maneuver undermined the other bridges assaulting the plateau and caused the retreat of Sadeas' army. Rock stepped up to defend Kaladin from the lighteyes that came to arrest him, but he was ordered to step down and allow it to proceed. Rock watched as Kaladin was beaten.{{book ref|sa1|32}}

Syl brought Rock, Teft, and Moash to the outside of the barracks to see Kaladin once he had regained consciousness. He witnessed Kaladin telling them that he would survive, and to check on his body after the [[highstorm]] had passed.{{book ref|sa1|34}} Rock was the first to leave the barracks to see Kaladin, initially dismayed to find him apparently dead before expressing his delight that he had survived. Rock called for other members of the crew to assist in cutting Kaladin down and bringing him inside.{{book ref|sa1|35}}

While Kaladin was recovering from being strung up in a highstorm, Rock was made the bridgeleader of Bridge Four. However, the crew just called Rock squadleader and called Kaladin their captain. On the day that Kaladin first stepped outside after healing, Rock stated that Kaladin must have bones of granite to have survived the highstorm and healed in only ten days. Bridge Four went on a plateau run that same day, with no casualties. That evening to thank him for his cooking, Bridge Four bought him a razor, which made Rock actually grow teary-eyed. He was very grateful for it,{{book ref|sa1|40}} and he started shaving the beards of all the members of Bridge Four.{{book ref|sa1|43}}

====Training For Escape====
After Kaladin's recovery, Bridge Four was assigned to chasm duty permanently. Rock questioned Kaladin as to their next steps toward fighting, but Kaladin shot him down, stating that the fight was over. After persuasion from Teft and Syl, Kaladin informed the bridge crew that their only chance to survive was to escape. Rock was the only member of the bridge crew to refuse spear training, becoming the official cook of the bridge crew.{{book ref|sa1|43}}

Rock held Kaladin down after he experienced visions during a highstorm. He was finally able to give Kaladin a shave during the [[highstorm|riddens]] and revealed that [[Sigzil]] was a [[Worldsinger]].{{book ref|sa1|46}} Bridge Four gained another new member, a [[parshman]] named [[Shen]]. During the next chasm duty, Kaladin took Rock aside, where he explained why he would not fight alongside the other members of the crew. Rock then took Lopen, Dabbid, and Shen to collect salvage while the other members trained with the spear. Rock noted that they could not do the work of a whole bridge crew, so Kaladin asked Syl to reveal herself to them to aid in locating salvage.{{book ref|sa1|49}} 

Rock was present when Dunny died on a plateau run, and he helped to save wounded members from other bridge crews.{{book ref|sa1|53}}

Rock participated in the first joint plateau assault between [[Dalinar]] and Sadeas. After the battle went quickly and successfully, Bridge Four was sent back to chasm duty, where they found an [[Spheres|emerald broam]] as well as various lesser spheres worth two hundred days of bridgeman pay, on the dead body of a lighteyed officer. Rock demonstrated his proficiency with a bow to attach the pouch of lesser spheres to the underside of a bridge, to be collected on the next plateau run. He insisted that he would shoot bridges but would never use the weapon in battle.{{book ref|sa1|55}}

Rock continued to train the bridgemen in carrying bridge drills when Kaladin was learning about the [[Knights Radiant]] from Teft. {{book ref|sa1|59}}

====The Battle at The Tower====
Rock was present at the assault on the [[Tower (Roshar)|Tower]], when every member of Bridge Four wore the carapace armor crafted by [[Leyten]] to serve as an added distraction for the Parshendi.{{book ref|sa1|64}} He witnessed the betrayal of Dalinar by Sadeas and agreed with Kaladin to return to save Dalinar's men after Kaladin was persuaded by Syl. He witnessed Kaladin say the [[Order of Windrunners#The Second Ideal|Second Ideal]] of the Knights Radiant and explode with stormlight,{{book ref|sa1|67}} then subsequently save Adolin and Dalinar from the Parshendi.{{book ref|sa1|68}} He helped carry the bridge escorting the remnants of Dalinar's army back to the warcamps, where Dalinar offered his Shardblade [[Oathbringer (Shardblade)|Oathbringer]] in exchange for the lives of all of Sadeas' bridgemen.{{book ref|sa1|69}}

Rock cooked a nightly stew for Bridge Four after the events of the [[Battle of the Tower]], and joined in talking to Kaladin about his abilities and what they meant for the crew going forward. The bridge crew decided to start doing experiments to test the limits of Kaladin's powers.{{book ref|sa1|73}}

====Dalinar's Army====
{{image|Bridge4 Tattoos.svg|Bridge Four Tattoos|side=right|width=250px}}
During the first highstorm after having been freed, Rock gave all the men a shave with the razor they had bought him. He was officially appointed a lieutenant by Kaladin, and became the quartermaster for Bridge Four with Lopen as his second. Rock joined the rest of Bridge Four in getting a forehead tattoo despite not having a slave brand to cover up, and received the same freedom + bridge four glyph that the rest of the crew had. Rock also gained an old [[Cobalt Guard]] uniform as a member of Bridge Four becoming Dalinar's new personal guard. However, they had the Bridge Four glyph requested for the shoulder patch to distinguish them from the original Cobalt Guard members.{{book ref|sa2|2}} 
{{image|Bridge 4 Glyph.svg|The portion of the glyph meaning "Bridge Four"|side=left|width=250px}}

After hearing Dalinar's gemheart proclamation, Kaladin ordered Rock to begin training members of the other old bridge crews to become cooks, aiming to improve morale.{{book ref|sa2|5}} Rock joined Kaladin in their first trip back into the chasms after having become part of Dalinar's army. Teft had brought along forty members of other bridge crews to train into new sergeants, while Rock, Kaladin and Syl discussed the Knights Radiant and spren. Rock praised Syl and offered to build a shrine to her, before informing Kaladin that the trainees had started to open up to them.{{book ref|sa2|9}} Rock participated in the experimentation of Kaladin's powers, alongside Sigzil, Lopen, and Syl. Using his abilities, Rock was able to see spren that pulled the stones to the walls of the chasm. Rock revealed additional combat prowess, sparring with Kaladin to test his strength, although he remained firm that he would not use this in real battles.{{book ref|sa2|12}}

After an evening training former members of Bridge Seventeen, Rock chased off people attempting to draw the members of Bridge Four, due to their fame from saving Dalinar.{{book ref|sa2|31}} Rock gained another member to serve under him after [[Hobber]] lost the use of his legs fighting the [[Szeth|Assassin in White]], bringing the total up to four alongside Lopen and Dabbid. Lopen also recruited additional relatives to join the crew during the time in Dalinar's army.{{book ref|sa2|22}} 

During a training session for Bridge Seventeen in the chasms, Rock speculated with Sigzil about the motivations and employers of the Assassin in White. He also discussed the attempt on Elhokar's life with Sigzil and Lopen. That night at dinner, [[Renarin]] joined Bridge Four as a recruit and aided Rock in cleaning dishes and tidying up.{{book ref|sa2|41}} 

Rock joined a group of Bridge Four going into the warcamp for drinks. Rock spoke of his homeland--the [[Horneater Peaks]]--and how the gods aided them in living there, telling the tale of speaking to the gods of the forests, sea, and mountains. He described that the hot springs found in the peaks are special, forming a [[Cultivation's Perpendicularity|connection to the gods]] and a place to view the [[Shadesmar|home of the gods]]. Rock refused to explain why he could see spren and discouraged interpretations of the story he told. Sigzil was startled when Rock mentioned a god named [[Hoid|Lunu'anaki]] who cannot hurt people, as this was the same person who Sigzil trained with to become a worldsinger.{{book ref|sa2|46}}

====The Battle of Narak====
After Kaladin fought alongside Adolin in the duel for Shards and his subsequent imprisonment, Rock began cooking a stew for the entire duration of the prison sentence for Kaladin to eat after he was released. Rock attended the party where Kaladin was awarded the remaining set of Shardplate and Blade from Adolin's duel, and then for the following awarding of those Shards to [[Moash]].{{book ref|sa2|66}} Rock was present when the bridge that caused Kaladin and [[Shallan]] to fall into the chasms collapsed due to sabotage.{{book ref|sa2|68}} Dalinar stripped [[Amaram]] of his titles in front of Kaladin, Rock, and Bridge Four before they embarked on the expedition to fulfil the [[War of Reckoning|Vengeance Pact]].{{book ref|sa2|76}} Rock joined the expedition to carry Bridge Four and defended Shen, now known as Rlain, to Dalinar, stating that he was still a member of Bridge Four.{{book ref|sa2|79}} Rock escorted Shallan along with the other bridgemen in finding the [[Oathgate]] on the Shattered Plains.{{book ref|sa2|81}} {{book ref|sa2|83}} {{book ref|sa2|84}} Rock greeted Kaladin after he returned from defeating the Assassin in White over the Shattered Plains, before Kaladin used Syl as a Shardblade to take them to [[Urithiru]].{{book ref|sa2|87}}

=== Urithiru ===
====Becoming a Windrunner Squire====

{{quote

}} 

After the [[Battle of Narak]], the members of Bridge Four gained the ability to Invest Stormlight, with Teft noticing several bridgemen glowing and Lopen fully regrew his missing arm.{{book ref|sa2|87}} Following Kaladin's departure to [[Hearthstone]], however, this ability was lost. 

While out in the market in Urithiru, Rock was stabbed through the hand by [[Re-Shephir|a black figure]];{{book ref|sa3|25}} this interaction mimicked how Shallan, disguised as Veil, had stabbed another Horneater named [[Ur (character)|Ur]] in the same manner earlier.{{book ref|sa3|18}}

Upon his return, Kaladin took Bridge Four to the Shattered Plains to practice using their Radiant abilities, using the emerald gemstone reserve.{{book ref|sa3|35}} Rock set up his cauldron and began cooking stew for the bridgemen training in combat, and mused on how he found the Shattered Plains to be beautiful. Rock recited the [[Order of Windrunners#The First Ideal|First Ideal]] quietly while cooking, as the rest of the bridgemen recited it while training. He was skeptical that Hobber could draw in Stormlight, but Kaladin insisted that all of Bridge Four could do so. Rock worried that they were going to war and that several of them would die. He invited Renarin to come over to help cook and mentioned to him that he could never see Renarin's spren, [[Glys]]. Rock comforted Renarin as he questioned his belonging to Bridge Four and recommended that he talk to Rlain, as they would share the experience of feeling like the odd one out. [[Skar]] taught Rock how to draw in Stormlight, being pleased that he was a good teacher. Rock noticed a large group of [[honorspren]] watching Bridge Four practice and talked to Sylphrena about how they would not interact with her since she had sought out Kaladin, and they did not like to admit they were wrong. Rock offers infused gemstones to the spren, who drew it in before departing. Hobber, Rock's assistant, was able to restore his Shardblade-cut legs and walk.{{book ref|sa3|37}}

====Reunion With Family====

Shortly after, they investigated a pillar of smoke in the distance. The pillar turned out to be flames from a [[Voidbringer]] attack on a caravan whose uninjured members were revealed to be Rock's family: his wife, referred to as "Song"; his son Gift; daughter Cord; son Rock (whom he noted was named for a different kind of rock and told Bridge four to call Little Rock); a third son, Star; a daughter named Kuma'tiki (a kind of shell on the Horneater Peaks); and his last daughter, Beautiful Song. Song told Rock that something was terribly wrong back at their home in the Horneater Peaks. Rock carried bridge four one last time on the way back to the Oathgate, as they were no longer slaves and would fly with Stormlight from then on.{{book ref|sa3|37}}

====Further Training and Honorblade====

Rock and Kaladin discovered Teft together in a [[firemoss]] den, having sold his uniform coat to pay for more of the drug. They carried him back to the barracks, fed him stew and promised to get him help.{{book ref|sa3|41}} Rock witnessed Skar struggling to draw in Stormlight until Skar told [[Lyn]] the story of when he first saw Kaladin using it on a bridge run and to further focus on her intentions for wanting to become a [[Windrunner]]. Rock then informed Skar that he too was glowing after Lyn successfully drew in Stormlight.{{book ref|sa3|46}} Rock manned the drinks station during another training session, while the members of Bridge Four questioned the changing world around them and how things have become more acceptable and different.{{book ref|sa3|55}} Dalinar brought [[Jezrien]]'s [[Honorblade]] to Bridge Four, where they decided to transfer it between members of the squad to maintain unpredictability and secrecy, as well as being able to operate the Oathgates while Kaladin was away in [[Kholinar]].{{book ref|sa3|64}} Rock was among the members of Bridge Four who were attacked by agents of the [[Diagram]] to obtain the Honorblade, alongside Bisig and Eth, who were badly injured and killed respectively.{{book ref|sa3|i|14}} 

====The Battle of Thaylen Field====
{{image|LunamorsBowTobalGZ.png|side=right|width=280px|Rock at the [[Battle of Thaylen Field]]}}

During the time that the enemy forces were assembling an army outside [[Thaylen City]], [[listener]] troops also staged a strike at Urithiru.{{book ref|sa3|115}} Members of Bridge Four died during the assault.{{book ref|sa3|118}} Teft spoke the [[Order of Windrunners#The Third Ideal|Third Ideal]] and began a counterstrike against the invading forces at Urithiru.{{book ref|sa3|119}} Bridge Four successfully recaptured Urithiru before leading troops through the Oathgate to Thaylen City, saving Renarin before spreading out to reinforce the Alethi forces in the city. Rock defeated and killed Amaram at the [[Battle of Thaylen Field]] after he had been bonded with [[Yelig-Nar]], striking him down with two arrows from a [[Grandbow|Shardbow]], one through the head and one through his gemheart. This caused Rock to have a crisis, as saving Kaladin broke his vow of non-violence.{{book ref|sa3|120}} He was consoled by both Kaladin and Teft after the battle had ended.{{book ref|sa3|121}} 

===A Year Later ===
====Hearthstone====
Rock accompanied the rest of Bridge Four on the expedition to evacuate the residents of Kaladin's home village [[Hearthstone]] using [[Navani]]'s newest creation, the floating platform known as the ''[[Fourth Bridge]]''. He assisted in the battle against the [[Heavenly Ones]] by supplying Kaladin with spears and warning other members of the expedition about [[Lezian]], a new form of [[Fused]] that had not been encountered before.{{book ref|sa4|5}} Rock and his daughter Cord defended Dalinar while he held [[Honor's Perpendicularity]] open to renew the Knights Radiant on the expedition with fresh Stormlight.{{book ref|sa4|6}} 

====Departure====
{{quote
|I made that choice because you are worth that sacrifice. But it is no sacrifice unless I now go, as is right, to seek justice from my people. I would leave with your blessing. But I will leave either way.
|Rock to Kaladin before leaving{{book ref|sa4|12}}
}}
After letting his family have some time to rest, Rock departed back for the Horneater Peaks with part of his family, taking his wife and younger children with him. He told Kaladin that he had broken the ways of his people, and must face justice for his actions. He asked for Kaladin's blessing, and Kaladin gave it. [[Skar]] and [[Drehy]] went with Rock and his family as an honor guard, as well as to fly and protect them on their journey. When Kaladin asked if he'd see Rock again, Rock told him that when they next saw each other, it would not be in this life.{{book ref|sa4|12}}

Rock later appeared in a nightmare shown to Kaladin by [[Odium]], where members of Bridge Four were shown fighting and dying in order to worsen Kaladin's emotional state.{{book ref|sa4|46}}

Once Skar and Drehy returned from their mission escorting Rock to the Horneater Peaks, they informed Kaladin that Rock would not be returning.{{book ref|sa4|114}}

== Relationships ==
===Family===
====Birth Family====
Rock has an extensive family in the Horneater Peaks, being the fourth-born son of his family. He was close with his mother, baking together as soon as Rock was able to reach the counter. At some point during his life, one of his elder brothers died, moving his position to that of third-born son. 

Rock's relationship to other members of his family was not made explicitly clear, although it has been stated that he is related to [[Kef'ha]], [[Tifi]] and [[Sinaku'a]]. 

====Wife and Children====
He married his childhood friend [[Tuaka]] and together they raised six children. [[Gift]] and [[Cord]] are the eldest and are twin brother and sister respectively.  They both share Rock's [[Sighted]] ability.{{book ref|sa3.5|7}} Rock has no issues with Gift following the Vorin religion, giving his blessing to the Veden monks who visited the Peaks when Gift was a child. {{book ref|sa3|55}} Rock is surprised at how much Gift has grown since he last saw him, stating that he is now almost as tall as Rock himself. {{book ref|sa3|37}} Rock shares a love of cooking with Cord {{book ref|sa3.5|3}}, although they differ in opinion about the use of violence in the fight against Odium. {{book ref|sa3.5|17}} Gift and Cord both remained behind in Urithiru when Rock returned to the Peaks. {{book ref|sa4|12}}

[[Rock (junior)]] and [[Star]] are Rock's second and third sons respectively. They both help serve food and drinks alongside their father. {{book ref|sa3|37}} {{book ref|sa3|55}} Rock (junior) is named after a different kind of Rock than his father. [[Kuma'tiki]] and [[Beautiful Song]] are Rock's second and third daughters respectively. Beautiful Song was so young when Rock left the Peaks that she does not remember him, breaking his heart. {{book ref|sa3|37}} All four of his youngest children returned with him to the Peaks. {{book ref|sa4|12}}

== Trivia ==
* It is unclear whether the brother that Rock lost was the member of his family that died facing Sadeas in a duel for Shards, as nuatoma is also not defined as to whether it is the oldest family member, an inherited position, or a position that is fought for and won. When Kaladin asks about the brother that died, Lunamor responds that it is a sad story and is not suitable for telling at the current time. Rock also comments that other members of his family died during the time with Sadeas, and it is also unclear as to their relation to Rock.{{book ref|sa3|37}} 
* Rock believes the best part of a chull is its head. {{Cite}}
* Rock's stew appears during the torment of Kaladin on [[Braize]] while [[Wit]] spares him torment for a brief moment. {{book ref|sa4|80}}
