The '''Order of Skybreakers''' is an order of the [[Knights Radiant]] on [[Roshar]].{{epigraph ref|sa2|43}}
The Skybreakers are [[Surgebinder]]s who use the [[Surge]]s of Gravitation and Division{{book ref|sa3|90}}, and they are associated with the smokestone [[polestone]]. They form a [[Nahel Bond]] with [[highspren]].{{book ref|sa2|59}} They are widely thought of as fanatics in both Shadesmar and the physical realm. Highspren is usually used as a derogatory term.{{cite}} The Skybreakers were the only Radiant Order not to have abandoned their oaths on the Day of Recreance, and continued to operate in secret until the present day.
== Philosophy ==
While each order of Radiants contains a variety of personalities within it, those who join the Skybreakers generally subscribe to a philosophy of justice, fighting for causes, and enforcing social rules.{{wob ref|13773}} They reinforce the importance of moral codes, legal structures, and similar boundaries that protect civilization. Skybreakers tend to follow a code as the code changes.{{wob ref|13766}} They are also able to follow a code some might consider outlaw-ish, such as a Pirate Code. The Order believes that nobody, not even a Radiant, should be above being questioned.{{wob ref|13773}} They tend to attract those who believe in the importance of legal code, those who have strong moral codes of their own, and those who think the best defense against anarchy are things like patriotism, moral fiber, and rules to govern behavior.
== Ideals of the Skybreakers ==
* [[Fari]] (Squire)
