Kaladin Stormblessed

Kaladin Stormblessed is one of the main heroes in The Stormlight Archive series.
==Biography==
Kaladin started as the son of an upper-middle-class darkeyed citizen. His father was a surgeon, which is very high up for a darkeyes. After a complicated series of events at home resulted in his brother being sent to join the military, Kaladin joined up too to protect him. Tragedy resulted from this, and ultimately ended with Kaladin's entire unit being wiped out and he himself being enslaved. After he became a slave, he winded up in the ownership of Highprince Sadeas, as a "bridgeman" forced to carry bridges to allow the Highprince's army to traverse the Shattered Plains, a duty that is fraught with death and dishonor. It is here, at his lowest point, that Kaladin discovers what he is truly capable of.
==Powers and Abilities==
*Idea Embodiment - Knights Radiant Members can become the embodiment of ideas, the representation of any/all thoughts and concepts that come from a spontaneous and reflexive manner that occur without thinking. This allows them to have limitless or near-limitless power and control over any and all ideas whether new or old.
*Chivalry - Knigts Radiant Members possesses an innate ability to manifest great courage and nobility at all times, especially in the face of adversity. The knights express a desire to maintain order and are well rounded in many aspects. They are well versed in the seven knightly virtues and some are as zealous as to try and destroy that which they see as impure, as well as suffering from psychological stress due to having to suppress their natural instincts and desires. Their selflessness and compassion makes them very charismatic and they soon earned the trust of those around them. The knights are determined and their enthusiasm allows them to master whatever they put their minds into. Although knights may have an indomitable will, most fall prey to mental control and illusions because of the constant absence of their personal needs. If their will is strong, however, and they do not easily fall prey to temptations. Their greatest weakness is, indeed, the over-trust in their dogmas, the trust in those who are closest to them and their naive disposition. As maintainers of the status quo, knights expect those alongside them to behave properly, however, they are always loyal to them to an extreme degree, to the point that they may even give up their lives for those who become their allies. Certain kinds of animals have an affinity, such as war-dogs and horses, due to their loyalty to their masters and great reliability in times of conflict.
