Ridgebark is a commonly used stimulant on Roshar.[1]

It is easy to acquire, even street urchins have access to ridgebark.[1] They often chew it to keep themselves awake and alert when exhaustion or injury would ordinarily leave them incapacitated or unconscious.

Brightlord Adolin Kholin chewed ridgebark to stay awake while guarding his father's room through the night after Szeth's assassination attempt.[2] Teft used it in an analogy to casual usage of firemoss compared to his addiction.[3]
