== History ==
=== During the Final Empire ===
Before [[Yeden]] hired [[Kelsier]]'s [[Kelsier's crew|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, and kidnapped minor nobles.{{book ref|mb1|4}}{{book ref|mb1|7}} These 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}}
During the thousand years of the Final Empire's existence, there had always been skaa rebels.{{book ref|mb1|6}} Around the year 700 FE they managed to gather seven thousand skaa and the end result was the [[Tougier|Massacre of Tougier]].{{book ref|mb1|4}} There has never been a successful massive revolt.{{book ref|mb1|6}}
The rebellion's army were hidden and trained in the [[Arguois caverns]], near the [[atium]] mines and the homeland of the [[kandra]].▼
Marsh gave up leadership of the skaa rebellion when Kelsier was sent to the [[Pits of Hathsin]].{{book ref|mb1|7}} At that time there were about three hundred rebels in and around [[Luthadel]] and the [[Arguois caverns]], including women and children.{{book ref|mb1|6}}
Towards the end of the Final Empire the rebellion was led by a skaa man named Yeden. Yeden hired [[Kelsier's crew]] to help overthrow the Lord Ruler and his empire,{{book ref|mb1|4}} and the crew played a vital role in the formation and running of the rebellion's armies during this time.
*[[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}}

Once [[Yeden]] replaced [[Ham]], he led the rebellion on a premature strike against the empire's garrison at the city of [[Holstep]]. As they were returning from their victory there, the garrison from [[Valtroux|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 caverns 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 Garrison]].{{book ref|mb1|25}}
=== After the Final Empire ===
After the death of the [[Lord Ruler]], [[Elend Venture]] became king of [[Luthadel]] and the [[Central Dominance]]. The veterans of the rebellion joined, and formed the backbone of, Elend's army. They fought for Elend during the [[Siege of Luthadel]] which culminated in the [[Battle of Hathsin]].{{book ref|mb3|81}}
