Kauri

Kauri is a kitsen who travels to Starsight under the leadership of Hesho and acts as his shieldbearer and navigator. 
== Appearance and Personality ==
Kauri wears a red and gold uniform and carries an ornamental shield. This shield is a physical symbol of her duty as Hesho's shieldbearer. The duties and responsibilities of such a post are not made clear but it seems that shieldbearers serve as personal assistants, providing information and fulfilling menial tasks. She also is tasked with piloting a small hoverplatform that the kitsen of the Gaualako-An use as transport outside of their ship.
Kauri is the navigator of the Gaualako-An. Though her duties as a navigator are not clear, she is often tasked with explaining details about the universe in Hesho's stead. Consequently, she is knowledgeable, skilled at explaining, and generally helpful.
== History ==
Before coming to Starsight, Kauri worked as Hesho's navigator on the Gaualako-An. After arrival and after being accepted as a trainee, she changed ships to work again as Hesho's navigator on the Swims Against the Current in a Stream Reflecting the Sun, also known as the Swims Upstream. Kauri later takes control of the Swims Upstream after Hesho's death.

Kaves Kholin

Brightlord Kaves Kholin is a distant Kholin relative that lives in Kholinar during the Era of Solitude.
During his time as a lesser lord in Kholinar, Kaves wielded only middling power. However, he had greater ambitions and often sought to increase his influence within the city, much to the annoyance of the royal members of his family. As such, there was little love lost between Kaves and the main branch of House Kholin.
Following the arrival of the True Desolation and the besieging of Kholinar by the Voidbringers, Kaves Kholin, like many other lighteyes, sought an audience with Queen Aesudan, who had retreated into her palace and not been seen for some time. He came to the palace accompanied by several attendants, but was captured and executed on the queen's orders along with his retainers. His corpse, as well as those of his attendants, were placed in a wine cellar within the palace and allowed to rot and be scavenged by cremlings. The bodies were discovered by Shallan Davar during her attempt to infiltrate the palace. She brought this news back Adolin and Elhokar, who guessed one of the corpses likely belonged to Kaves, but mourned little for his death.
== Notes ==
Kazan Smedry

Kazan Smedry is a member of House Smedry. He is the son of Leavenworth Smedry and the brother of Attica and Pattywagon.
 
== Appearance and Personality ==
Kazan is described as having a wide face with a broad chin and dark, curly hair. He wears rugged clothing, and is about four feet tall. He tends to go by the nickname Kaz.
He acts as a guide for the group, and like most Smedrys, he enjoys going on adventures and doing dangerous things. Kazan does not like being referred to by his height, though he keeps an extensive list of reasons why short people are better than tall people.
== Attributes and Abilities ==
Like all Smedrys, Kazan has a Smedry Talent. His talent is getting lost and is a space Talent on the Incarnate Wheel. This allows him to effectively transport himself and whoever follows him to another place, but it may take weeks to get to the destination. The Talent is easier to activate if he is already lost, but would have limitations when he is at places that are unlikely to get lost. Parallels are made to Transporter's Glass. 
Kaz is also able to use Warrior's lenses and can pilot silimatic vehicles. Additionally, he is a prominent scholar of arcane theory and is thus very knowledgeable about Smedry Talents and the Incarna. He is the first person to teach Alcatraz about the Incarnate Wheel.
== Relationships ==
Kazan's father is Leavenworth Smedry, and the two are very close, sharing an affectionate bond. Both enjoy needling each other over their reckless tendencies. Kaz even says that he knows Leavenworth better than anyone else.
Kazan also seems close to his brother Attica—Attica greets him enthusiastically upon their reunion in the Library of Alexandria, and Kaz speaks of Attica and his accomplishments with admiration. However, Kaz has also called Attica an idiot and admits his brother isn't perfect.
In addition, Kaz seems to be the only one of the Smedrys to view Shasta with anything other than distrust. Though he believed it was foolish for Attica to marry her, he thinks they did truly love each other and that she wasn't the worst of Librarians.
Kaz initially dislikes his nephew Alcatraz due to a social faux pas Alcatraz makes when they first meet, but the two eventually develop a good relationship. Alcatraz comes to Kaz for advice about his theories on Smedry Talents and the Incarna, and confides his anxieties about his parents, while Kaz is a helpful and supportive figure for him.
== Trivia ==
* His name is a reference to a defunct Russian "mental health" prison in Kazan.

Ked

Ked works for Brightlord Paladar in the human bunker in Revolar on Roshar during its occupation by the singers. 
They are presumably Alethi and lighteyed, as they were put in charge of organizing the guards in Paladar's tents and were responsible for placing Guff on guard duty. After Guff brought Moash to see the Brightlord and Moash did not respond to questioning, Paladar had Guff beaten and ordered Ked to post a new guard. Paladar threatened Ked with a beating if Guff's replacement also proved incompetent. 
It is unclear if Ked was a guard, or if they were just in charge of their organization.

Keep Orielle

Keep Orielle is a keep in Fadrex City on Scadrial during the Final Empire.
The keep is not as imposing as Keep Venture but it is still impressive. The keep's main hall, which also serves as the ballroom, is constructed from white marble with intricate stonework and rows of ornamental marble pillars. It also includes floor-to-ceiling stained-glass panels of "masterpiece" quality that are used to partition and decorate the room. The hall holds hundreds of people, but the relatively low ceilings give the room an intimate feel.
Keep Orielle was the setting of a lavish ball on the first night of the siege of Fadrex City. Vin learned of the ball from Slowswift. She and Elend attended the ball, arriving at the doors by Allomantic flight. It was the first time that Elend openly revealed himself to be a Mistborn, and he and Vin used the ball as an opportunity to show their strength to the assembled nobles, including Aradan Yomen and Lady Patresen.
== Notes ==
Keep Shezler

Keep Shezler is the keep of Antillius Shezler in Mantiz on Scadrial.
== Geography ==
It is one of the four major keeps in Mantiz, situated near the center of the city.
== Architecture ==
The keep is a tall and slender building, as tall as any of the keeps in Luthadel. It has four tapering spires up front that have tin-clad roofs, and it is surrounded by a guarded wall about fifteen feet high. Like most buildings in the Western Dominance, Keep Shezler has an organic, unfinished feel instead of the blocks and peaks seen in Luthadel architecture. It is constructed of stone frames with a layer of sculpted hardened mud outside. It has statues covered in multicolored glaze decorating the exterior that are seemingly placed at random. The windows are all different shapes and sizes, and many of them contain beautiful stained glass. 
== History ==
Kelsier and Gemmel infiltrated Keep Shezler as a part of the former's Mistborn training. They first went up to the roof to have a good view, and then entered the basement via a shed in the garden, killing some guards on their way. In the basement they found Antillius Shezler's delicate metallurgy equipment, and his skaa captives on whom he tested his research results in his attempts to produce the Eleventh Metal. At that moment Shezler, who was a Mistborn, also entered the basement and attacked Kelsier. Kelsier managed to kill him without any help from Gemmel, then freed the skaa captives and took Shezler's personal notebook with him before the guards realized what had happened.

Keeper

The Keepers of Terris are the major branch of Feruchemists on Scadrial during the Final Empire. Ruled over by the Synod, they copied the practices of the Worldbringers of old in collecting as much information as possible in their metalminds. They tried to stay secret from the world, and the Lord Ruler, who would have them killed for their Feruchemical abilities.
The Keepers amassed knowledge of Scadrial from before the Lord Ruler and the advent of the Final Empire, in the hope of restoring to the people the knowledge and heritage they had lost after Rashek took over the world.
Each Keeper has access to all the stored knowledge of their order, and periodically returns to Tathingdwen, the capital of Terris Dominance, to update their copperminds. Also, each Keeper has a particular area of expertise, such as religions or ancient kings and leaders.

Kef'ha

Kef'ha is an Unkalaki nuatoma on Roshar.
== History ==
Kef'ha left the Horneater Peaks together with members of his family, including Lunamor, seeking to gain Shardplate and Shardblade for his clan. Believing that it would be easier to win against a Shardbearer with no Shardblade, Kef'ha challenged Highprince Torol Sadeas to a duel, with Sadeas' Shardplate on the line. Kef'ha was killed in the duel, which Lunamor claims was not contested "properly".
It is unclear what exactly was offered as stake by Kef'ha, but the Unkalaki usually have to offer a large amount of riches in order to gain an opportunity to duel. Lunamor and the other members of Kef'ha's household became Sadeas' servants (and effectively slaves) after his death. Both Tifi and Sinaku'a were killed for raising weapons in vengeance against Sadeas. Lunamor was angry enough over Kef'ha's death that he served Sadeas food with chull dung in it; this is what led to Lunamor being made a bridgeman.

Kel

Kel is a medical technician in the Defiant Defense Force.
== History ==
Kel traveled to Evershore with Skyward Flight and Winnow to recover Cobb and Gran-Gran. While things were worked out with the Kitsen, Kel and Winnow stayed to work on Cobb and Gran-Gran. They tried to move them out of the medical tent on stretchers, but their condition began to immediately deteriorate the further away from their original position they got. Kel later reported to FM that their blood pressure had begun to drop, their heart rate becoming irregular. They decided it was better to keep them in their current position, until they knew more. Kel, along with Winnow, stayed with Cobb and Gran-Gran even as the Superiority attacked and the battle raged. They stayed indoors as the battle occurred, and Jorgen warned Kel to keep an eye on the rising tide levels, which were caused by Detritus arrival near Evershore. After the battle was over, Kel and Winnow carried Cobb and Gran-Gran to the transport ship on stretchers, despite Gran-Gran's loud protests that she was able to walk.
== Notes ==
Kelerand

Kelerand is a Kholin swordmaster ardent in Urithiru. He is even better with the sword than Dalinar Kholin, besting the highprince in two duels out of three.
== History ==
In Urithiru, Kelerand was responsible to some degree for training Dalinar's troops and managing the barracks. Dalinar commended him on the setup of the training facilities and ordered him to expand the training quarters and keep the soldiers busy to prevent fights.
Kelerand was present in a practice room in Urithiru once when Dalinar wanted to burn off excess energy before a meeting with the Iriali queen. Like many of the other ardents, even the usually jovial swordmasters, Kelerand was made uncomfortable by Dalinar's recent marriage to Navani and his heresy concerning the Almighty's death. When Dalinar asked to spar with him, he responded that he will do so if commanded, but would rather not.

Kelesina Shores

Lady Kelesina Shores is a noble resident of New Seran. She is a believer in the freedom of New Seran and other cities in the Elendel Basin from Elendel, going so far as to collaborate with the Set.
== Appearance and Personality ==
Lady Kelesina is an older woman. She is described as "statuesque" and wears rings on all of her fingers. Wax notes that she is a fairly ordinary narcissistic noblewoman. She lives in a mansion built in an old style, with architecture and interior artwork designed to evoke pre-Catacendre mansions.
She likes to consider herself a sort of predator in polite society.
== History ==
=== New Seranian Independence ===
Lady Kelesina was very invested in the independence of the Elendel Basin from Elendel itself. She made an agreement with Mister Suit: in exchange for her help killing ReLuur and distracting Wax from the Set's projects, Suit would crush Elendel and would provide Kelesina with an army. Kelesina had killed ReLuur, and, assuming success, had sent back one of his spikes as proof to Suit.
=== Kelesina's Party ===
Lady Kelesina threw a party, attended by Wax and Steris. During the party Wax baited Kelesina into revealing her connection to the Set. He told her that he possessed a mysterious coin and knew of the happenings northeast of New Seran. Alarmed, she fled the party and contacted Suit through a primitive telephone. She argued with Suit, saying that Wax could not be successfully distracted from his mission, while Suit was convinced another mystery would catch his attention. When Wax confronted her after learning she was responsible for the Nightstreet Gang's attack on their train, she was shot in the forehead by her Brute maid, who was under orders from Suit. Once dead, her maid took a Goldmind out of Kelesina's pocket, which was later recovered by Wax.
== Trivia ==

Kelsier's bones

Kelsier's bones are the physical remains of Kelsier. They were utilized by the kandra OreSeur and TenSoon on at least two separate occasions. 
On the first occasion, OreSeur consumes them in order to inspire the skaa to rebel against the Lord Ruler as the conclusion of Kelsier's plan to bring down the Final Empire.
Later, they are used by TenSoon to save remnants of the population in Luthadel from a Ruin-influenced Penrod. The bones were eventually brought to the Kandra Homeland.
The remains survived Harmony's Ascension.

Kelsier's crew

Kelsier's crew was a band of skaa on Scadrial that acted against the Final Empire.
The first phase of Kelsier's crew is the members of his first crew made to break into Kredik Shaw. Mare, Kelsier, and Redd were part of this group, with all but Kelsier being killed during or after the heist. The second phase of Kelsier's crew is the group hired by the skaa rebellion, and includes everyone else. They orchestrated the house war between the nobility of Luthadel, as well as raising an army and inciting mass skaa riots in Luthadel before killing the Lord Ruler and bringing down the Final Empire. After the death of the Lord Ruler, the survivors took over the government of Luthadel and are no longer considered part of Kelsier's crew. The second phase and anyone who was added after can be considered part of the Preservers, and the first phase is not, with the exception of Mare.

Kelsier's mother

Kelsier's mother is a skaa on Scadrial. She is a resourceful mistress to a high-ranking noble lord.
She deceived her lover about her skaa heritage, successfully hiding it for many years. Although her children Marsh and Kelsier were illegitimate, they grew up privileged until their father discovered the truth, at which point she was taken by obligators and presumably executed. Marsh and Kelsier were very young at the time; the loss of their mother caused Marsh to Snap. Their father did not report the mixed heritage of the boys to the Steel Ministry, but they lived out their childhoods in constant fear of being discovered and killed.
By the time Kelsier and Marsh reached adulthood, they had no living relatives except each other. Kelsier's loathing of nobles was partly fueled by the treatment of his mother, although he sometimes wondered what his life would have been like had he remained in noble society. Marsh focused his anger on the obligators and dedicated his life to overthrowing the Final Empire; he did not agree with Kelsier's wanton violence against nobles.

Ken Harris

Ken Harris is a police officer on Evensong.
In 2211, a piece of carapace, presumed to be from the recently-missing Varvax ambassador, is found in a burning station on Evensong, and Harris is one of the officers investigating the incident under Captain Orson Ansed; at that point, Ansed considers him a "new kid." He leads Ansed into the building, shows him the burned piece of carapace, and reports that the sensor net recorded nothing. He also notes that the burners are emptied only once a month and that, if the body had been in there any longer, there probably would not have been any traces left. Finally, he informs Ansed that the worker who found the carapace already told the media.

Kenton's mother

Kenton's mother is a woman from the Darkside of Taldain.
She marries a Daysider, a powerful sand master named Praxton, and gives birth to a number of children, including Kenton. The marriage between a sand master and a Darksider broke with tradition. The couple's children lacked natural talent for sand mastery, with only Kenton attempting to join the Diem; it was rumored that this was due to the Darksider ethnicity polluting the family tree.
Kenton learned to speak Dynastic from his mother, as it was her native tongue. After the attack on the Diem, Kenton notes that it has been two years since he has heard someone speak Dynastic, implying that his mother died or otherwise lost contact with him at that time.

Kenton Street

Kenton Street is a street in Luthadel on Scadrial.
==Location==
Kenton Street is in north-central Luthadel. It connects to a notable fountain square known as the Square of the Survivor.
==History==
During the rebellion on the Lord Ruler, Lord Renoux, actually OreSeur, proposed to Vin to go buy a new earring instead of the one she wears from Kenton Street. Vin opposed the idea and chose to keep her earring
Prior to the Collapse, it housed shops for the nobility, including tailoring and jewelry shops. After the Collapse, Elend Venture abolished the restrictions on skaa merchants and wages. As a result, Kenton Street became a lively market, with merchants employing criers and jugglers to try to attract attention for their wares.
During the Siege of Luthadel, Tindwyl took Allrianne and Vin dress-shopping on Kenton Street. At the time, Vin noted that the merchants were charging as high as five boxings for a box of old apples. Later during the siege, Elend ordered Hammond to gather the Kenton Street clothing merchants and make them come see the skaa refugees, hoping that the poor conditions would convince the merchants to lower their prices.

Ker'reen

Ker'reen is the predominant religion of Kerzta.
The philosophy calls for worship of the sun, teaching that it is the manifestation of the Sand Lord and the source of autonomy and independence. The Ker'reen philosophy denounces the use of sand mastery as heresy, which has led to war between Kerzta and Lossand in the past.

Members of the priest DaiKeen are traditionally marked by square-shaped scars on their foreheads, though some have recently been found to wear X-shaped scars similar to the tattoos of the warrior DaiKeen. Members of the clergy speak Karshad.
The KerKor is the primary religious text of the Ker'reen religion.
