The '''Horneaters''', or '''Unkalaki'''{{book ref|sa1|14}} as they refer to themselves, are a race of people on the world of [[Roshar]]. They live on the tops of mountains called [[Horneater Peaks]]. They currently have no [[Shardplate]] or [[Shardblade]]s.{{book ref|sa1|23}} They are one of several races on Roshar with [[Listener]] blood in their ancestry.{{wob ref|930}} As a result, they have a higher tendency to be asexual than other races without Listener ancestors.{{wob ref|3400}} Furthermore, they seem to be able to faintly hear the Rhythms{{book ref|sa3|37}}, although it remains unclear whether they are able to distinguish them or attribute them to certain feelings. Features that are often associated with Horneaters are pale skin, tall stature and red hair. {{book ref|sa2|69}}

A Horneater's occupation is determined at birth. First and second sons obtain food, third sons are craftsmen, and fourth sons are warriors.{{book ref|sa1|49}} If siblings die, the younger ones advance in this order of professions, meaning a son that started training as a warrior would be forced to abandon his career in order to become a craftsman if his older brother died. It is unknown what more fertile families do with the later children. This regulation reflects the social status of each type of profession in the Horneater culture. Basic functions like gathering food are valued the most while professions related to warfare are seen as least important. Therefore a third son craftsman like [[Rock]] refuses to become a spearman soldier like the rest of [[Bridge Four]] because it would be "beneath him".
