=== Kaladin ===
'''[[Kaladin]]''' is the focus character of the novel. At the beginning of his story, he is a squadleader in [[Amaram]]'s army. His storyline then cuts to his time as a slave. He is sold to [[Sadeas warcamp]], where he is placed in [[Bridge Four]], and made to run headlong into enemy fire with the rest of his bridgecrew to give the army a way to cross the chasms. After a period of despair, Kaladin works to improve the life of his bridgecrew. He trains them so that the bridge runs won't tire them out so much, saves the lives of injured bridgemen, and slowly gets them to start caring again, and to see themselves as soldiers. Kaladin also plans to find a way to escape from Sadeas's army.
 
Kaladin faces the internal struggles of his inability to save those around him and his distrust of any lighteyes, both of which are resolved with the climax of the novel.
