=== Military ===
==== Armament ====
Listener soldiers use Warform, this grants them strong carapace armor as well as increased strength.{{book ref|sa2|i|1}} Though not as strong or resilient as someone with Shardplate, warform listeners
The Listeners had multiple sets of [[Shardplate]] and [[Shardblades]], they gradually lost all of them during the War of Reckoning however.{{book ref|sa2|i|3}} Regular soldiers often wear simple garments that are tailored around their warform carapace. Some of them also wear long coates, although these aren’t worn into battle. The Listener general wears a cap on their skullplate and a tight red cloth as a cape.{{book ref|Sa2|i|4}}
==== Tactics ====▼
==== Hierarchy ====▼
The Listener military is commanded by a general, who is also the warform representative in the [[Council of Five]]. During the [[War of Reckoning]] Eshonai served as general.▼
▲==== Tactics ====
▲While they also used archers just like the Alethi, the listeners' combat strategy also involved using '''warpairs'''{{book ref|sa1|26}}, or pairs of warriors who fought side by side as partners. These listener warpairs would jump around the battlefield in coordinated maneuvers and attack enemy troops with heavy weapons from multiple directions.{{book ref|sa1|28}} While warform listeners were able to jump the distance between plateaus.
[[Listener]]s also use two-handed slings to hurl head-sized rocks at Shardbearers, these rocks can quickly damage Shardplate, with a single blow being enough to make cracks in an unharmed section of Plate.{{book ref|sa1|65}} The Listeners also use shortbows to harry and weaken their enemies.{{book ref|sa1|17}}

=== Architecture ===
Prior to the [[True Desolation]] the Listeners were technologically behind the rest of [[Roshar]]. They lived in huts made from hardened crem over frames of shell, which were huddled on the leeward side of lumps of stone to protect from [[highstorm]]s.{{book ref|WoR|i|4}} These buildings were fragile and would often be destroyed by highstorms, although the Listeners would simply rebuild them.{{book ref|WoK|45}}
