<p><b>New page</b></p><div>The '''Windrunners''' are one of the ten orders of [[Knights Radiant]], renowned as protectors and defenders, wielding the [[Surges]] of Adhesion and Gravitation. They are perhaps the most prominent order in [[The Stormlight Archive]], as [[Kaladin]], the leader of [[Bridge Four]], is a Windrunner. The Windrunners are associated with the [[The Heralds|Herald]] [[Jezerezeh|Jezrien]] and bond with honorspren.<br />
<br />
== Surges ==<br />
Windrunners command the Surges of '''Adhesion''' and '''Gravitation'''. With Adhesion they can bind objects and people together, creating powerful stickiness using [[Stormlight]]. With Gravitation they can manipulate the direction and pull of gravity upon themselves and others -- the power of the Lashing, which allows them to fall in any direction, effectively flying, and to make objects or foes plummet toward chosen points. Skilled Windrunners can apply multiple Lashings to move with great speed and agility.<br />
<br />
== Ideals ==<br />
The Windrunners are defined by their devotion to protecting others. Their oaths progress through Ideals centered on this calling. Beyond the shared First Ideal, the Windrunner Ideals include:<br />
* Second Ideal: ''I will protect those who cannot protect themselves.''<br />
* Third Ideal: ''I will protect even those I hate, so long as it is right.''<br />
The later Ideals continue to deepen the Radiant's commitment to protection and to the difficult choices it entails.<br />
<br />
== Spren ==<br />
Windrunners bond honorspren, intelligent [[Spren]] tied to [[Honor]]. The honorspren [[Syl]], bonded to [[Kaladin]], is the most prominent example, manifesting as his [[Shardblade]] and guiding his growth as a Radiant.<br />
<br />
== Notable Members ==<br />
The foremost Windrunner of the Archive is [[Kaladin]], formerly a bridgeman and slave, who rose to lead [[Bridge Four]] -- many of whose members became Windrunners or squires in turn under his leadership.<br />
<br />
== Significance ==<br />
As the order of protectors and the order of [[Kaladin]] and [[Bridge Four]], the Windrunners are central to the rebirth of the [[Knights Radiant]] and to the defense of humanity against [[Odium]].<br />
