The '''skaa rebellion''' is the name given to the last insurrectiongroup of the [[skaa]] ofopposing the [[Final Empire]] on [[Scadrial]].
 
== Background ==
Before [[Yeden]] hired [[Kelsier]]'s crew to raise an army for the rebellion, [[Marsh]] was their leader.{{book ref|mb1|7}} During that time the rebels hid runaways, planned burglaries, organized raids or kidnapped a minor Noble.{{book ref|mb1|4}}{{book ref|mb1|7}} The rebels never expected to be able to overthrow the [[Final Empire]], they just wanted to achieve something grand to give the skaa hope.{{book ref|mb1|4}}
Prior to the events of [[Mistborn: The Final Empire]], [[Kelsier]]'s brother [[Marsh]] led the rebellion.
 
During the thousand years of the Final Empire's existence, there have always been skaa rebels.{{book ref|mb1|6}} Around the year 700 FE they managed to gather seven thousand skaa what resulted in the Massacre of [[Tougier]].{{book ref|mb1|4}} A massive revolt has never been achieved.{{book ref|mb1|6}}
 
Marsh gave up leadership of the skaa rebellion when Kelsier was sent to the [[Pits of Hathsin]].{{book ref|mb1|7}} About that time there were about three hundred rebels in and around [[Luthadel]] and the [[Arguois caverns]], including women and children.{{book ref|mb1|6}}
 
== The Final Empire ==
 
*[[Breeze]] led a team of [[Soother]]s and [[Rioter]]s to help recruit soldiers from the skaa workers.{{book ref|mb1|10}}
*[[Ham]], who had previous military experience, was in charge of training the new recruits and was the military commander of the rebellion until [[Yeden]] replaced him. {{book ref|mb1|21}}{{cite}}
 
The rebellion's army were hidden and trained in the [[Arguois caverns]], near the [[Pits of Hathsin]] and the Homeland of the [[kandra]].
Once [[Yeden]] replaced [[Ham]], he led the rebellion prematurely against the empire's garrison at the city of [[Holstep]]. As they were returning from their victory there, the garrison from Valtroux City caught up with them and ambushed the skaa soldiers, slaughtering everyone.
 
[[Demoux]] and a small group of about 2,000 soldiers stayed behind in the caves because they thought [[Yeden]] was "acting rashly". Even though this effectively removed the rebellion from Kelsier's plan, they were eventually smuggled into [[Luthadel]] to help overthrow the [[Luthadel garrisonGarrison]].{{book ref|mb1|25}}
