Liafor

Liafor is a kingdom on a peninsula in south-west Roshar. It is known as a center of fashion on Roshar.
== Geography and Ecology ==
It borders Tashikk to the east, Yezier and Alm to the north, the Aimian Sea to the northwest, Steen to the southwest, and an unnamed body of water to the south. The city Berizhet lies in northeastern Liafor, close to Tashikk. A major river runs west through Liafor, starting near Berizhet and ending in the Aimian Sea. During the Silver Kingdoms era, it was part of Makabakam.
== History ==
During the Silver Kingdoms period, it was part of Makabakam. Eventually, Makabakam collapsed and Liafor eventually formed from its remains.
During the Era of Solitude, Liafor became a member state of the Azish Empire. At some point it became famous across Roshar for its fashion.
== Politics ==
Liafor is headed by a monarchy run by a prince and other rulers. The prince's cousin, Kaza, was trained from a young age in the use of their soulcaster, which is always kept in the royal family. Whoever is the soulcaster is locked up yet given comforts in an attempt to placate them. Their soulcaster only has the ability to turn objects into smoke. The soulcaster was lost on the island of Akinah when Kaza ran off seeking a cure for her condition. Liafor tends to eagerly join whatever councils Azir is in, though they prefer to cater meetings themselves. At the start of the True Desolation, they and Yezier were the only two Makabaki countries Dalinar thought in a stable enough position to approach about the coalition.
== People ==
The Liaforan people have deep brown skin and dark brown eyes, like many other Makabaki peoples.
== Culture ==
Liafor, along with Yezier, are known as the origin of fashion on Roshar. They produce fashion folios that are read even on the opposite side of Roshar at the Shattered Plains. Each folio page shows a few alternate styles of outfit for one particular demographic, such as Azish male civil servants. The popularity of these fashion folios comes from an ability to use local models and market towards local fashion trends. Folios marketed towards the Alethi and Veden market use Alethi models and show traditional styles such as the Vorin havah rather than the more daring styles popular in the west. Similarly, the styles shown in Thaylenah take inspiration from the style of Queen Fen. The folios sent to the Shattered Plains intentionally had out-of-date styles in order to sell military uniforms to the soldiers, which Adolin was appalled to learn.
Fine Liaforan boots are an indication to Hauka in Tashikk that a man is not a poor farmer as he claims. Other products to come out of Liafor include Liaforan handicrafts, discussed by Tashikki women, and a Liaforan word puzzle, done by Rysn in Thaylen City.

Librarian

The Librarians are a cult of librarians which ruled most of the Hushlands, founded by Biblioden on the principle that silimatic technology and oculators should be kept secret from the majority of the world.
== Orders ==
The Librarians are divided into four main orders, or groups.
;Wardens of the Standard: The most common Librarians in the Hushlands, are masters at cataloging books. They claim to be kindly, but according to Grandpa Smedry, "The whole order is founded on the idea of looking innocent; they’re really the deadliest snakes in the lot." They sent a contingent to Nalhalla to open an embassy and attempt to negotiate a treaty.
;Order of the Shattered Lens: They are said to take the teachings of Biblioden most seriously and oppose the use of any Silimatic technology. This is taken to the extreme of destroying any that they find, including Oculatory lenses. They also hold symbolic glass-breaking ceremonies where they break even regular glass. They are said to be the largest sect of the evil Librarians. Cultists from this order are the ones who eventually tie Alcatraz to an altar of outdated encyclopedias. 
;Dark Oculators: Oculator Librarians who often specialize in dangerous, offensive Lenses. They also practice Dark Oculary, including Alivening. 
;Scrivener's Bones: The Scrivener's Bones are the smallest of the Librarian factions. They are mercenaries that hire themselves out to the other Librarians. They are not Oculators, and so wield blood-forged Lenses (Lenses made with the blood of an Oculator that can be used by non-Oculators). Some of them augment their bodies with Alivened material, resulting in a hideous cyborg-like appearance. They are fond of using both Hushlander and Free Kingdomer technology, such as when Kilimanjaro used a fighter jet with an Oculatory Lens. The Scrivener's Bones also provided the technology and scientists that allowed Shasta Smedry to infiltrate the Royal Archives (Not a Library!) of Nalhalla.
==Known Librarians==
===Wardens of the Standard===
*Kangchenjunga Sarekgjakka was the ambassador to the Council of Kings lobbying for the treaty that would hand over Mokia to the Librarians.
*Himalaya Smedry was part of Warden of the Standard before she defected from the evil librarians.
===Dark Oculators===
*Radrian Blackburn is the dark oculator who smelted the lenses made from the sands of Rashid stolen from Alcatraz on his thirteenth birthday.
*Fitzroy is the dark oculator who accompanied Shasta Smedry when she infiltrated the Royal Archives to steal a book in the forgotten language.
===Scrivener's Bones===
*Kilimanjaro chased Alcatraz after fleeing from the Hushlands and through the Library of Alexandria.
===Other Notable Librarians===
Shasta Smedry is a known librarian, however her motives and order are unclear even to other librarians.
== How to Spot Evil Librarians ==
There are many stereotypes for librarians:
 - Horn-rimmed glasses
 - Suit and Tie
 - Evil cultists
 - Vengeful undead who want to suck your soul

category: list articles
Library of Alexandria

The Library of Alexandria is a repository of all knowledge ever recorded. It was originally located in the Hushlands, curators moved it after it outgrew its location.
The library is still known in the Hushlands, though the Librarians have covered up its continued existence by claiming it was destroyed by the Roman Empire.
== Curators ==
The library is protected by a curse wherein anyone who reads from or moves a book forfeits their soul and becomes one of the library's curators.
The Curators try to get visitors to check out a book so that they can claim their soul. The library is laid out so that one will get hopelessly lost, making a visitor just give up. Traps are everywhere as well, with the information on how to get out of them written on books that can be checked out.

Lifeblesser

Lifeblesser, god of healing, is a Returned from Hallandren on Nalthis.
== Appearance and Personality ==
Like many of the Returned gods, Lifeblesser is nearly seven feet tall, with sculpted muscles and a square jaw. His defining features are his brown hair and flowing robes. His colors are blue and silver, and he typically wears robes in these colors. He is honest, but not particularly intelligent, and tends to blurt out his unedited thoughts. He therefore has difficulty with the nuances of politicking with his fellow Returned.
== Attributes and Abilities ==
As a Returned, Lifeblesser has a divine Breath which gives him the benefits of being on the Fifth Heightening. This includes:
* Aura Recognition - allows him to assess the number of Breaths a person possesses. 
* Perfect Pitch
* Perfect Color Recognition - allows him to instantly and instinctively determine exact shades of colors and their hue harmonics.
* Perfect Life Sense - allows him to sense people around him.
* Agelessness - makes him immune to most toxins and physical ailments, as well as making him functionally immortal. 
==History==
He was present at Siri's presentation in the Court of Gods.
He played Tarachin with Weatherlove and Truthcall every week and tried to use the time as an opportunity to make political advances. According to Lightsong, this was the true purpose, and the true game, for Lifeblesser and his companions. However, Lifeblesser often missed the subtext of these conversations, and was also confused by Lightsong's humor when he would join the game. He bluntly expressed his belief that Siri was faking her inexperience, and suggested attacking her homeland of Idris as retaliation for King Dedelin sending his youngest daughter instead of the older one, Vivenna.
== Relationships ==
He is friends with Lightsong, Weatherlove, and Truthcall since they get together for a game of Tarachin every week, although all of them sometimes find his bluntness cringe-worthy.
== Notes ==
Lifebrother

The Lifebrother is a spren from Stone Shamanism that Taravangian and Pozen reference. 
Pozen indicates that the Lifebrother is part of the Shin Honorbearer chain of command and refers to the Lifebrother as the "spren of soil." The placement in the chain of command above the Honorbearers and Heralds indicates the Lifebrother is highly revered in Stone Shamanism.
Taravangian wonders if the Lifebrother sent Szeth to him perhaps because the position of Truthless is unique to Shinovar or the Lifebrother is associated with good fortune. Szeth's response to Taravangian about the Lifebrother which mentions Vorin gods is most likely not associating the Lifebrother with Vorinism, but rather refuting Tarvangian's claim that the Lifebrother would send Szeth to perform these bloody acts.
== Notes ==
Lifebuster

A lifebuster is an explosive weapon of mass destruction used by the Krell to subdue the human population of Detritus.
Lifebuster bombs explode in three stages. The first wave is a downward blast that penetrates rock, exposing caverns underneath it. The second one consists of a strange greenish-black corrosion that causes a chain reaction in organic matter and exterminates life. The third explosion is a shock wave meant to further spread the "terrible burning green light" of the second stage to places where it may kill more living things.
== Krell Usage and Tactics ==
While very powerful, lifebusters seem to be of a certain scarcity and Krell forces would not risk to let the bomber carrying it get destroyed, which would detonate the bomb. Krell tactics are centered around how to carry the lifebuster close enough to destroy either the Alta Base or the caverns underneath. Krell interceptors are sent to protect the less agile bombers, and if the DDF manages to pose a risk of destroying the bomber, the Krell forces would retreat. As the DDF begins to learn more about the Superiority's cytonic hyperjump capabilities, they speculate that the Krell don't simply hyperjump a lifebuster to directly over Alta Base because they are afraid of losing control over the details of hyperjump technology.
== History ==
The first time it was used was when the leaders and scientists of the Defiant fleet all gathered in one cavern to discuss plans after the Defiant Fleet crash landed on Detritus. The Krell dropped a lifebuster bomb to destroy all of the computers and humans in the cavern hoping to set back the Defiant fleet indefinitely.
During the Battle of Alta Second the Krell attempted to drop another lifebuster onto Alta Base, after the attention of the DDF fighters had been diverted by falling wreckage. The Krell were given permission to completely destroy the human settlement on the prison planet Detritus. However, Spensa and M-Bot were able to use a light-lance to carry it out of the blast range of Alta and then make a cytonic hyperjump to escape.

Liganor

Liganor is a lighteyed potter in Urithiru on Roshar.
== Appearance and Personality ==
Liganor is a nice older man. He is short, bald, and somewhat tubby with a short neck. He is brave enough to keep his shop open during the tower's occupation, but he is too fearful to make an open stand supporting the Knights Radiant when he realizes things are brewing for a fight in the atrium.
== History ==
Master Liganor at some point moved to Urithiru and opened a pottery shop in the market that consisted of a workroom and a showroom down below with his personal rooms upstairs. He used to do all of the glaze work on the pottery himself, but after employing Gub and Alalan he delegated that particular task to Gub. Liganor kept his shop open for business during Raboniel's occupation of the tower. The day of Kaladin's final confrontation with Lezian, he came in from the atrium and discussed the situation with Alalan, looking to him for approval in closing the shop. After locking the door, he retreated upstairs.
== Notes ==
Light-line

A Light-line is a technology device that takes the form of a bracelet. It can project weightless glowing ropes that can be attached to two different objects. While being created, the lines must be in contact with the device, but multiple lines can then exist alone until the power given to the lines have run out. This device is especially useful when exploring cave systems or descending heights, as demonstrated by Spensa and her father's usage. It is quite durable, needing only to be charged once a while to function over ten years.
It resembles a mini version of the Light-lance used on DDF starfighters. They are used by pilots and can be requisitioned from the quartermaster. Spensa's light-line is unknown to the DDF, and although Cobb is aware of it, he has not reported it.
Technology such as light-lines survived the crash of the Defiant onto Detritus, as well as subsequent destruction of the fleets electronic archive, and have been passed down through the generations. Before the crash, light-lines were used by the engineers while they worked on ship machinery in zero gravity. 
== Notes ==
Lightning

Lightning is an Epic, and is a member of Snowfall's group of Epics in Sacramento. It is likely Lightning has lightning-based abilities.
When David Charleston first meets the Reckoners, he thought Lightning would be a good target on the Reckoner's list of Epics to kill.
Since the Reckoners generally attack High Epics with a prime invincibility, it is likely Lightning is a High Epic with one such ability.

Lightweaving

The term Lightweaving may refer to any Invested Art that grants some sort of power to create illusions. The known types of Lightweaving and Lightweavers are:
* Yolish Lightweaving, the original variant
* The Surge of Illumination, one of the ten Surges on Roshar, is another form of Lightweaving
** The Order of Lightweavers, one of two orders of the Knights Radiant with access to the Surge of Illumination
** The Order of Truthwatchers, the other of the two orders of the Knights Radiant with access to the Surge of Illumination
** The mavset-im, or Masked Ones, Fused with access to the Surge of Illumination
* Khriss mentions variations of Lightweaving present on Sel, which likely include both the effects of Aon Shao in AonDor and an unknown ancient Fjordell character in Dakhor.

Lilly Whiting

Lilly Whiting is a Rithmatics student at Armedius Academy, a student of Professor Fitch.
She was one of the first victims of the Scribbler, and the first that occurred within the book's timeline.
Lilly was sixteen at the time of the Rithmatist prologue, and had lived in Jamestown all her life. It is assumed that her family is at least moderately wealthy, due to the fact that she attends Armedius Academy as a Rithmatist, and that her home, which is described in the prologue, has a grandfather clock, fine rugs, painted walls, dark wooden floors, broad picture windows, and a rocking chair.

Lily of the Spring Pond

Lily of the Spring Pond is a masterpiece painting created by Han ShuXen. He painted it for a woman he loved. When she died, her children gifted it to the Rose Empire. It hangs in the offices of the arbiter Frava near the Imperial Gallery.
The Forger Wan ShaiLu was hired by Han ShuXen to steal the painting and destroy it. She replaces the original with a Forgery she painted with his help, throwing the original into a fire. Han ShuXen did not want his masterpiece to "glorify" the Rose Empire, which he opposed. Shai is imprisoned for the "attempted" theft of the painting and the Moon Scepter and is coerced into Forging a soulstamp for Emperor Ashravan. After her imprisonment, Shai steals the fake painting and leaves a mark in the shape of Aon Reo in its place.

Limmi

Limmi is the head of the ground-floor staff for House Ladrian on Scadrial.
== History ==
Lord Waxillium Ladrian had Limmi draft a response to House Yomen indicating that he and Lady Steris Harms would be attending their wedding reception but to wait to send it until he confirmed that she should. She tried to warn him that it was Wayne waiting in the sitting room and not the Harms family, but he walked in before she could tell him. Soon afterward, when Lord Harms, Steris, and Marasi actually arrived, Limmi was unable to stop them from interrupting Wax and Wayne's conversation about the Vanishers.
Later, while further investigating the Vanishers, Wax had Limmi bring him broadsheets from the Elendel Daily covering recent events and the robberies in particular.
Tillaume, Wax's butler, knocked Limmi out prior to his assassination attempt on Wax. He hid her and Miss Grimes in a closet, presumably to protect them from the potential explosion. After the explosion, Wax carried Limmi and Miss Grimes outside to the back garden, hoping the constables or Krent, his coachman, would find them.

Lister's oil

Lister's oil is a substance on Roshar with antiseptic properties.
==Properties and Use==
It is a pungent oil that is spread across the wounded area to prevent infection. It is known to scare away rotspren. It is perhaps the most effective antiseptic known in Alethkar, and it is preferred to larmic mucus, knobweed sap, and soap and water.
==History==
Lister's oil was used in the hospitals in Kharbranth. Vathe, a surgeon who was educated at the Great Concourse of Kharbranth, knew of the effectiveness of lister's oil and trained his apprentice Lirin to use it. Lirin used it extensively in his surgery, including when he attended to Sani's injury. 
Lirin passed his knowledge of lister's oil on to Kaladin. Kaladin used it to treat wounds when it was available, and he often wished he had more of it. It was very expensive on the Shattered Plains, costing two sapphire marks per bottle from an apothecary that Kaladin visited. Kaladin commented that even a bottle of cheaper larmic mucus would cost him ten days pay, and a bottle of lister's oil was around five times more expensive.
Shallan Davar was treated with lister's oil in Kharbranth after cutting herself with a shard of broken glass.
==Trivia==
*The name likely refers to an out-of-universe historical figure named Joseph Lister. He was an early pioneer of antiseptics and introduced phenol to sterilize wounds and surgical implements.
