The Parshendi
The Parshendi are a race of creatures on the world of Roshar, currently featured within The Stormlight Archive. The Parshendi live in the area of Roshar known as the Shattered plains. They are related to, and physically resemble in some aspects, The Parshmen. However, the Parshendi are mentally much more intelligent than the Parshmen. Male Parshendi grow beards, which they thread through beads infused with stormlight
Originally discovered by King Gavilar during a hunting trip, not much is known about the way of the Parshendi. They also appear to have a form of hive mind.
Physically, the parshendi are well built and pale with marbled colors on their skin. They also grow a form of chitinous armor on their chests and head.
