History

Leyten was an apprentice armorer prior to becoming a bridgemen. The armor of a lighteyes broke, allowing an arrow to hit in the shoulder, and the blame fell on Leyten. As a result, he was demoted to work on the bridge crews.[1]

On the first bridge run after Kaladin's promotion to bridgeleader, Leyten dropped after taking two arrow wounds in his shoulder and the opposite arm. Another arrow grazed his stomach and his left leg was trampled by a horse. Teft and Rock carried Leyten to Kaladin, who insisted on treating his wounds. Leyten fell unconscious and Kaladin feared he wouldn’t make it. However, Kaladin pulled the arrows free from his arms and cauterized the wounds. He splinted Leyten’s leg using the arrow shafts and cauterized that wound as well, saving the man’s life. The crew brought him back to the barracks by tying him to the top of their bridge while they ran and then quickly untying him before the army crossed.[3] Leyten’s wounds soon became infected, causing Kaladin to enlist Rock and Teft to help collect knobweed sap for its antiseptic qualities. The knobweed sap worked because Leyten was up and about, though he initially had a lot of trouble walking due to his crushed leg.[4][5][6]

Leyten’s condition continued to improve, even joining the rest of Bridge Four in the chasms for spear training and harvesting.[7] After the success of using the Parshendi carapace armor, Leyten was tasked with crafting additional sets of armor for every man in Bridge Four.[1] He expertly crafted armor to fit on their current leather jerkins and caps, along with arm and shin guards to match. Leyten insisted on ornamenting the helms with ridges and cuts, as well as cutting the breastplates and guards in toothlike patterns.[8]

After the Battle of the Tower, Leyten joins Dalinar's camp along with the rest of the bridgemen, taking turns guarding various members of the Kholin family. He practices the spear with Natam and a few others in the morning. After Kaladin gives Shen a spear, the parshman joins Leyten in their training.[9] Leyten helps teach Renarin how to carry a bridge.[10] He was guarding Dalinar when Rlain surrendered himself to the Alethi.[11] He survives through the Everstorm and the battle prior to it.[12]
