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

The Truthwatchers were Surgebinders who used the two Surges Illumination and Progression, and they absorbed Stormlight from gems. It is very likely that they also used a Nahel bond.

Quotes

“Now, as the Truthwatchers were esoteric in nature, their order being formed entirely of those who never spoke or wrote of what they did, in this lies frustration for those who would see their exceeding secrecy from the outside; they were not naturally inclined to explanation; and in the case of Corberon's disagreements, their silence was not a sign of exceeding abundance of disdain, but rather and exceeding abundance of tact. —From Words of Radiance, chapter 11, page 6”
