“Ha! When I left, Gift was short like Skar. Now he is nearly my height! ”
Gift is an Unkalaki on Roshar. He is Lunamor and Tuaka's eldest son, and a twin brother to Cord. The young boy is very tall and pale-skinned. He is Vorin, and wears a glyphward tied to his arm.[1][2]. Per his culture's traditions, he has the honor of gathering food as his occupation.[3][1]
Like his father and sister, Gift may be able to see spren.[4] Gift is the only one of his siblings who speaks enough Alethi to manage a passable greeting when he arrives on the Shattered Plains.[1]
History[edit]
Gift converted to Vorinism, with his father's blessing, by Veden monks who came to the Horneater Peaks during the time when he was growing up there.[2] His father, who had left the Peaks with Kef'ha almost a year before, sent his family a message summoning them as soon as he had saved up enough wages. Gift and his family traveled for months, arriving at the Shattered Plains in 1174. Their caravan was raided by Voidbringers on the Plains, so he and his family barricaded themselves behind a pile of furniture. During the attack, a member of his family shot a Voidbringer with an Unkalaki arrow. They were found shortly after this by Bridge Four and taken to Urithiru. Lunamor was surprised by how much Gift had grown during the time he was away.[1] After settling in in Urithiru, Gift helped his father serve food and drink to Bridge Four.[1][2] He liked Lift and often left food out for her to "steal".[5]
Along with his sister Cord, Gift chose to stay at Urithiru when Lunamor returned to the Peaks with the rest of his family.[6]
