Takers

From The Coppermind
Revision as of 15:09, 25 October 2020 by Oudeis (talk | contribs) (Removed 'natural'. Considering that Syl has admitted his skill is a result of their bond and that the air visibly warps around him when he's fighting, it seems premature to specify that his skill is confirmed to be non-arcane in nature.)

Takers
Leader Tukks
Type Soldiers in Amaram's army
World of Origin Roshar
Universe Cosmere

The Takers were a squad of soldiers in Amaram's army lead by Tukks on Roshar that Kaladin was a member of.[1]

The squad was composed of darkeyes, and fought using spears. Outside of battle, they also trained new soldiers, both with spear and with quarterstaff.[2][3] Their training methods included corporal punishment.[4]

It was Kaladin's first unit upon joining, and it was there that he refined his talent with the spear into proper skill.[2] At some point, either most or all of them died, and Kaladin was transferred elsewhere, perhaps straight to leading his own squad.[1]
