Takama

Takamas are traditional warrior garments from Alethkar on Roshar. 
==Description==
A takama is a long, straight, calf-length skirt. They are usually loose-fitting and tied tightly with a long belt, typically in two knots with the ends hanging loosely. Takamas can be made from fine materials and it is not unusual to see them in a formal setting; they are sometimes golden in color. The takama has some similarities to both the pleated vakama and the shorter ulatu from Jah Keved.
During the Heraldic Epochs, takamas were worn with wide girdles and no shirt; Vaiu, an honorspren in Shadesmar, favors a similar style. In Dalinar Kholin's youth, it was common for soldiers to wear long uniform jackets over their takamas. In current-day Roshar, the skirt is traditionally worn with a light, loose-fitting overshirt and a cloth belt. The shirts are specifically designed to be worn with a takama.
==History==
Takamas are ancient in origin, dating to at least the Heraldic Epochs; Dalinar observed people wearing takamas of an older style during one of his visions of the time of Nohadon.
Takamas were popular as warriors garb as recently as a generation prior to the War of Reckoning, but were rarely worn in modern Roshar. Kaladin, who grew up in rural Alethkar, first saw a takama when he was twelve or thirteen years old and was surprised at its resemblance to a woman's skirt.
Dalinar often wore a takama in his youth and told Kadash a story about one of his swordmasters, Harth, teaching him to tie a takama in the "traditional" way, with the belt tied three times. He noticed that everyone else tied the belt twice, leaving the ends long and drooping. Dalinar sought out Harth's master to ask him about it, and realized that the master tied his belt three times not because of tradition, but because he was extremely short in stature and the long ends made him trip. Perhaps because of this embarrassment, Dalinar never liked wearing a takama, although he did wear them during his time as the Blackthorn.
Most of the people seen wearing a takama in modern Roshar are members of the nobility or the military. They include Roshone, Sebarial, and Elhokar. Amaram, a noted traditionalist, required his soldiers to wear a takama as part of their uniform. Aladar took to wearing a shorter, modern-cut uniform jacket over his takama and the style caught on with his officers.
== Notes ==
Takers

The Takers were a squad of soldiers in Amaram's army lead by Tukks on Roshar that Kaladin was a member of.
The squad was composed of darkeyes, and fought using spears. Outside of battle, they also trained new soldiers, both with spear and with quarterstaff. Their training methods included corporal punishment.
It was Kaladin's first unit upon joining, and it was there that he refined his talent with the spear into proper skill. At some point, either most or all of them died, and Kaladin was transferred elsewhere, perhaps straight to leading his own squad.
== Notes ==
Talak

Talak was a Veden man, who served Liss, the Weeper, an assassin on Roshar.
Talak had a brutish look to him, and although he was a Veden, he had a speckle of red on his beard, hinting at Unkalaki heritage.
Talak replaced Szeth as Liss's servant; Liss had found Szeth creepy. Talak guarded the door when Jasnah Kholin met with Liss about the surveillance and the potential assassination of Queen Aesudan Kholin, Jasnah's sister-in-law.
== Notes ==
Talakimallo

Talakimallo is the king of Mokia. Shortly after the siege of Tuki Tuki began the Knights of Crystallia supposedly evacuated him, though he secretly stayed behind in the city.
== Appearance and Personality ==
Talakimallo is tall with long black hair that he wears in a ponytail tied with a beaded string. When defending the city, he has his face painted with black lines. He has a powerful, muscular chest. Like other Mokains, he wears a simple red and blue wrap. He carries a flaming spear in battle.
Talakimallo is courageous and determined, and has a fierce love for his people. He is incredibly loyal to them, and puts himself before them. He is compassionate, and considers surrendering Tuki Tuki to the Librarian army so that no more Mokians will die. Talakimallo has a subtle sense of humor, and makes a pun about Tuki Tuki’s flowers when talking with Alcatraz.
== History ==
The Knights of Crystallia intended to evacuate him from Tuki Tuki for his safety when the Librarians laid siege, but Talakimallo’s daughter, Princess Kamali, used a pair of Disguiser's Lenses to make herself look like her father. She was taken away to safety, and Talakimallo stayed behind to defend the city. When Alcatraz Smedry and his friends arrived to help, Talakimallo introduced himself as Mallo, a general of the city guard. Aydee and Bastille recognized him as the king, and Kaz found him to look familiar. Talakimallo welcomed Alcatraz and his friends, and accepted their help to defend the city. He gave them a brief explanation about the city and its flowers. Upon arriving at the royal palace, Alcatraz realized his true identity, and Talakimallo explained his deception to them. 
Alcatraz asked for a piece of Communicator’s Glass, and contacted Draulin. He showed Draulin that King Talakimallo was there in Tuki Tuki, in an effort to get the Knights of Crystallia to come and save him and the city. Draulin tried to get Talakimallo to leave the city and save himself, but Talakimallo refused to leave his city and his people. Their communication was cut off when the Librarians disrupted their communication as they prepared for a large attack.
Alcatraz received a communication with his lenses told Talakimallo that his grandfather would come, but Talakimallo was dubious, thinking that perhaps he should surrender to the Librarians. While he was still deciding, a small Librarian strike team emerged from a tunnel and attacked the group. In the ensuing fight the Librarians were defeated, but both Talakimallo and the Queen were knocked into comas, which only the Librarians had the antidote. After being inspected by a Mokian doctor, Talakimallo and Angola were sent to their chambers and given a double guard, lest the Librarians try to kidnap them. There he stayed unconscious during the battle.
== Relationships ==
His wife is Angola Dartmoor and his heir and daughter is Princess Kamali.

Talanah

Sister Talanah is an ardent in the Kholinar monastery on Roshar.
During Gavilar's feast the cook came to Navani and told her that they had run out of the Clavendah and the Ruby Bench. Navani realized that Dalinar had been taking wine from the kitchens again, and told the cook to go to the monastery and ask Talanah for her secret wine reserves.
== Notes ==
Talanan

Captain Talanan is an officer in the Alethi army in Urithiru during the True Desolation.
According to Balat Davar, Talanan berated a mistake-prone new army recruit named "Gobby"—actually Mraize in disguise—for nearly cutting off a man's arm in training. Mraize and Balat are later seen in House Sebarial uniforms, implying that Talanan was an officer of the Sebarial army.

Talanor

Talanor is an Alethi Shardbearer who fights on the Shattered Plains of Roshar during the War of Reckoning. 
== History ==
Talanor won his Shardblade in during a battle between House Kholin and Kalanor.
Talanor only had a Shardblade, he did not own a suit of Shardplate. As none of the full Shardbearers would accept his challenge to duel for Shards, Adolin Kholin decided to try challenging Talanor. He felt that Talanor was eager for notoriety, and would accept for the chance to gain prestige, as well as Adolin's Shards. However, it appears that he also denied Adolin's challenge.
== Notes ==
Talata

Talata is a Kholin scribe who lives on the Shattered Plains during the War of Reckoning.
Dalinar tells Adolin that Talata needs to review Highprince Bethab's chull contracts with Elhokar. Bethab had previously tried to slip language into a contract that would give him favor in a succession. Talata is presumably the best scribe in the Kholin warcamp for this task, as Dalinar asks for her by name.
== Notes ==
Talatin

Talatin was a Knight Radiant and member of the Order of Stonewards on Roshar. It is not known when exactly they lived, but it was prior to the Day of Recreance and the dissolution of most of the Radiant Orders.
Jasnah Kholin finds a quote that is attributed to Talatin during her research of ancient Rosharan texts and adds it to her notebook. The quote mentions fighting Voidbringers and warns against their ability to transform.

Taldain system

The Taldain system is the planetary system that contains Taldain. It is a binary system consisting of one large star and a secondary smaller star. The smaller, a relatively dim white dwarf, is surrounded by a dense cloud of particles known as the Particulate Ring. The larger, a blue-white supergiant, plays an important role in the means by which Taldain is Invested by Autonomy. The positioning of the system was intentionally designed by someone, presumably Autonomy. It is likely that space travel within the system is nearly impossible due to the highly Invested light.
== Celestial Bodies ==
;Taldain: Taldain is the sole planet inhabiting the Taldain system. It is tidally locked and located at a Lagrange point such that Dayside always faces the larger star while Darkside always faces the smaller, weak star, which is obscured by the Particulate Ring. </br> It is in an unstable orbit known as "Wombear's Saddle", where it is kept from ever entering into its natural stable orbit by the gravity of Ridos, and by some other, unknown force, presumably Autonomy. </br> A single moon, Nizh Da, is in a polar orbit around the planet. Its orbit is actively manipulated by an outside force to keep the same orbit relative to Taldain. Its orbit is used to define the length of a day on Taldain.
;AisDa: A blue-white supergiant that holds the Eye of Ridos and Taldain in its orbit. 
;The Eye of Ridos: A relatively faint white dwarf surrounded by a particulate ring. Sometimes shortened to simply Ridos. It sends out pulses of light and Investiture through the particulate ring every seven orbits of Nizh Da, which Invests the Starcarved.

Talik

Talik is a Reshi trademaster who lives on Relu-na. He is the son of the king of the island, Ral-na.
== Appearance and Personality ==
When Talik meets with Rysn, he is wearing the wrap and tassels common on Relu-na, leaving his tan shoulders bare, and has his hair in two braids. He speaks Thaylen so flawlessly that Rysn feels the need to check him for Thaylen eyebrows.
He appears to have a curt, imperious personality during the negotiation with Rysn, although that may simply be part of the act he puts on as part of his plan with Vstim.
== History ==
===Reshi Isles===
Talik was born to the king and king's consort of Relu-na. His parents sent him to Thaylenah to train with Vstim as his babsk when he was a child; he finished his apprenticeship, becoming a trademaster, and returned to the island to interpret for the king and negotiate trade with outsiders.
Before Vstim and Rysn visit Relu-na, Talik and Vstim agree to fabricate a tough, high-stakes trading situation as practice for Rysn. Unfortunately, it goes wrong when Rysn, desperately wanting to complete the trade, paralyzes herself by jumping off the island and falling into the ocean.
===Rysn's Journey to Akinah===
Prior to Rysn departing, Talik met with her in her office in Thaylenah. He offered Rysn advise in regards to the ailing Chiri-Chiri, telling her that she must take Chiri-Chiri to the lost city of Akinah, in Aimia.
== Notes ==
Talinar

Talinar is a town somewhere in Alethkar on Roshar. Teft grew up there. 
Little is known about Talinar's location or geography. The town is small, too little to be called a city; it smelled of flowers back when Teft lived there. There are cliffs in the area tall enough to kill someone who would fall off them.
== History ==
Around the year 1129, a group of Envisagers visited the town and shared their ideas of gaining the powers of a Knight Radiant through exposing oneself to mortal danger with the locals. Soon, an Envisager cult formed in Talinar, dedicated to resurrecting the Radiant Orders. Members of the cult would attempt suicide through leaping off cliffs, letting boulders fall on them and more, all in attempts to summon Radiant abilities. Eventually, following the suicide of his mother, Teft informed Talinar's citylord about the activities of the Envisagers. As a result, all surviving members of the cult were hanged.
Teft later left Talinar to join the army, never to return. As such, its current state is unknown.
== Notes ==
Talla

Talla is an honorspren on Roshar who is bonded to Drehy.
== Attributes and Abilities ==
As an Honorspren, forming a Nahel bond with Talla made Drehy a Knight Radiant of the Order of Windrunners. Through their bond, Drehy is able to access the Surges of Gravitation and Adhesion, and after Drehy reaches his Third Ideal, Talla is able to form a Shardblade.

Tallew

Tallew is a type of grain native to Roshar.
== Cultivation ==
Tallew is a relatively labor-intensive crop to grow, as it cannot survive flooding from highstorms. This makes it profitable to sell, which led Turinad Sebarial to set up tallew fields near the warcamps on the Shattered Plains. The Akanny region of the Sadeas princedom in Alethkar has rolling hills that are ideal for growing lavis and tallew, and it produces a large amount of both grains.
Once harvested, tallew can be stored for months to provide sustenance during the winter. It can be transported in bags and used as rations on long journeys. Tallew's long shelf life allowed the Kholinar Wall Guard to eat it during the Siege of Kholinar.
== Culinary Uses ==
Tallew is similar to rice and it can be prepared in several ways, including steaming and boiling. It is a simple meal often eaten by soldiers, slaves, and ardents.
The grain often has other ingredients such as spices added to it. Lighteyes sometimes eat boiled tallew mixed with a spicy gravy spread on slices of stagm. Fruited tallew rice with flatbread is a common meal for children in Alethkar. Tallew is often used as an ingredient in stew. Tvlakv served his slaves unspiced, overcooked tallew with a mushy texture and Kaladin found it revolting, later experiencing flashbacks to how bad it tasted.
Tallew can be used to make flatbread. It can also be fermented to make brandy or Veden saph.

Tallon

Tallon is a nation on the Dayside of Taldain. It is known as one of the Rim Kingdoms, with Seevis and Denka.
It is located on the south eastern coast. The capital city of Tallon is Nor'Tallon, found in the mountains in the western part of the country. The western border of Tallon is deep sand, and the northern border is Seevis. The Nor'Tallon River flows west from Tallon into Lossand, and eventualy merges with the Ry'DoAli River.
== Trivia ==
* In the original White Sand maps, Tallon was a nation on the south eastern coast of Dayside while Nor'Tallon was a separate nation north of Tallon, with its western border comprised of the southern end of the mountain range, and deep sand. However, an updated map in the White Sand omnibus edition merged Nor'Tallon into Tallon, with the former expressly defined as Tallon's capital city in the glossary.
== Notes ==
Talnah

Talnah is an engineer and artifabrian on Roshar.
==Appearance and Personality==
She is short, and her hair reaches past her ears. She wears a glove on her safehand. She is intelligent and naturally curious. She is friendly with her fellow scholars, including Nem and Rushu.
==Attributes and Abilities==
Talnah is one of Queen Navani's most versatile and trusted scholars. She worked as a jeweler before turning to optical lenses, and is an expert on a variety of subjects including polestones, lensmaking, weather readings, and astronomy.
==History==
During the True Desolation, Talnah was a member of Navani's team of artifabrians and scholars in Urithiru. In , she and Nem were tasked by Navani with studying the black sphere that Gavilar had given to Szeth. At the time, anti-Voidlight was not well-understood; as Talnah and Nem experimented with the sphere, they inadvertently caused an explosion that destroyed their lab, killing them both. Navani knew that she could not have reasonably expected a sphere to explode, but she still blamed herself for their deaths. She asked Rushu to perform a detailed forensic analysis on the lab.
== Notes ==
Tamu Kek

Tamu Keks are a type of bone that can be used for inter-Realm and interplanetary communication, similar to a seon. Most notably they are used to interact with dragons for purposes of prayer. They have some similarities to singer gemhearts.
Hoid has possession of a Tamu Kek as of the start of the Night of Sorrows, which he used to contact Frost and his sister. He would later use another to contact "the meditative realm of the dragons" for "wisdom of the ancient dead"; this gave him insight on Dalinar Kholin's recent actions and their implications.
== Trivia ==
* When writing Rhythm of War, Brandon debated whether to have the communication box that Mraize gave to Shallan contain a seon or a Tamu Kek, but eventually settled on making it a seon because they have personalities whereas Tamu Keks are just bones.
*Tamu Keks originated in the book Dragonsteel Prime.

Tanalan's father

Brightlord Tanalan is the citylord of Rathalas, also known as the Rift, in southern Alethkar on Roshar.
==Appearance and Personality==
He has a nasal accent that is common among Rifters. He wears simple steel armor in battle and carries his massive Shardblade, Oathbringer. Tanalan is close to his son, who shares his name.
Although he shares the independent streak of most Rifters, Dalinar considered him to be a fine enough fellow. Tanalan does not recognize Gavilar's claim to the throne of Alethkar. He is stubborn and fearless. 
==Attributes and Abilities==
Tanalan holds the rank of highlord, placing him in the third dahn. As citylord, he leads the city of Rathalas, which has a population that numbers in the tens of thousands. He is able to competently wield a Shardblade, although he does not have Shardplate.
==History==
Tanalan and Dalinar were acquainted prior to Gavilar's war of unification. After losing a game of pawns to Dalinar, Tanalan cheekily paid off his bet with small bits of ruby dropped into a hundred bottles of wine, to Dalinar's amusement.
In , Gavilar attacked the Rift. At the time, the majority of Alethkar was not yet under Gavilar's control and Rathalas was a stepping stone towards unification. Gavilar, Dalinar, and Torol Sadeas led the attack on the city. Tanalan refused to submit; he was in possession of the Sunmaker's Shardblade, and used it to duel Dalinar. However, Dalinar's Shardplate and fighting skill (enhanced by the Thrill) allowed him to quickly bring down Tanalan with a surprise charge. When Tanalan's soldiers tried to kill Dalinar, he brought down the platform they were fighting on, mortally wounding Tanalan in the process. Tanalan was then taken to a secret hideout with his wife and child, but Dalinar followed him. Upon arriving, the Thrill left Dalinar as he saw Tanalan's son take up his Shardblade to try and defend his broken, dying father. Dalinar took Oathbringer but did not kill the child.
After Tanalan's death, his son eventually took his title and continued the rebellion, culminating in the burning of Rathalas.

Tanalan's mother

Brightness Tanalan is the highlady of Rathalas in southern Alethkar on Roshar.
In , Gavilar Kholin's forces attacked Rathalas as part of his war for the unification of Alethkar. Dalinar Kholin dueled Brightness Tanalan's husband, Brightlord Tanalan, fatally wounding him. Tanalan's soldiers tried to hide him in a secret room, but Dalinar quickly found it. However, when Dalinar entered the room, he found Brightness Tanalan draped over her dying husband's body along with their young son, also named Tanalan. The younger Tanalan pleaded with Dalinar while attempting to wield his father's Shardblade, Oathbringer and the Thrill quickly left Dalinar. He took the Shardblade but he spared Brightness Tanalan and her son despite having orders to kill the child. Her subsequent fate is unknown, but none of the residents of Rathalas survived its complete destruction in .

Tao

Tao is a Forger in the Rose Empire on Sel.
He was Wan ShaiLu's first teacher. He taught Shai that each person was a puzzle and that a Forger wasn't a simple scam artist or trickster, but an artist who painted with human perception. He told Shai to respect the people she lied to and if she stole from them enough, she would begin to understand them.
