'''Larkin''' are highly valued small flying crustacean animals native to [[Aimia]] on [[Roshar]]. They have been a critically endangered species since the [[scouring of Aimia]].{{
== Appearance and Anatomy ==
The size of a larkin ranges between the size of a hand and a small melon.{{
The most outstanding feature of a larkin is its ability to suck [[Stormlight]] out of a [[Surgebinder]] at will. The Stormlight can be seen streaming from the Surgebinder towards the larkin's mouth as it is drinking in the Stormlight.{{book ref|sa2|i|9}} Larkins can also eat Stormlight that has been stored in gems and drain the [[Voidlight]] from a [[Fused]].{{book ref|sa3|i|13}}
The larkin are associated with the [[Knights Radiant]], though the specifics of their connection remain a mystery.{{file ref|TWoK Front Endsheet.jpg|The Way of Kings Front Endsheet}} One effect of this connection is possibly that Surgebinders can sense a larkin's mood.{{book ref|sa2|i|9}}

*[[Elhokar Kholin]] has the corpse of a larkin trapped inside a block of crystal to use as a paperweight in his conference room in the [[Pinnacle]].{{book ref|sa2|5}}
*[[Rysn]] was given a live larkin by the [[Tai-na]], [[Relu-na]].{{book ref|sa2|i|3}} She names it [[Chiri-Chiri]].{{book ref|sa3|i|13}}
