'''Rock''' or '''Numuhukumakiaki'aialunamor''' is an [[Unkalaki]] on [[Roshar]]. He is a third son, as such he is a craftsman according to Unkalaki culture.{{book ref|wok|49}} He calls himself Rock because he doesn't believe others can pronounce his real name which is actually a poem about a very special rock his father discovers the day before Rock's birth.{{book ref|wok|27}}
==Appearance and Personality==
Rock is a large man. He is nearly seven feet tall with thick limbs and a powerful torso. He has tan skin and deep red hair.{{book ref|twok|14}}
He is quick to laugh. He is a jovial man, generally liked by people around him. He is extremely respectful to spren, to [[Syl]]'s annoyance.{{book ref|twok|23}}
==History==
He traveled to the [[Shattered Plains]] with his ''[[nuatoma]]'' in the hopes of gaining [[Shardplate]] and [[Shardblade]] for his people. His ''nuatoma'' challenged [[Torol Sadeas]] to a duel because he believed it would be easier to first gain the Shardplate, then try for a Shardblade. After Sadeas won and killed his ''nuatoma'', Rock and his entourage became servants to Sadeas.
Sadeas used Rock as a cook. However, after Rock prepared one meal for him in which he put [[chull]] dung in the soup and the bread, used it as a garnish on the pork steak and made a chutney out of it for the buttered garams because he was angry about his ''nuatoma'''s death, he was sent to the [[bridge crew]]s.{{book ref|wok|23}} He became a member of [[Bridge Four]].
===Bridge Four===
After [[Kaladin]] takes his place at the front on the approach of a bridge run, Rock helps him rescue the wounded.{{book ref|wok|21}} Later he offers some of his food to feed the wounded and helps Kaladin gather the antiseptic called [[knobweed|knobweed sap]].{{book ref|wok|23}} They sell some of the knobweed sap they gather, and with the money they gain they buy supplies so Rock can cook for [[Bridge Four]]. After this most of the bridgemen start training with Kaladin.{{book ref|wok|27}}
While Kaladin is recovering from being strung in a [[highstorm]], Rock is made the bridgeleader of Bridge Four. However they just start calling Rock squadleader, and Kaladin captain. To thank him for his cooking, Bridge Four buy him a razor, to which Rock actually grows teary-eyed. He is very grateful for it{{book ref|wok|40}} and he starts shaving the beards of all members of the Bridge Four.{{book ref|wok|43}}
==Attributes and Abilities==
He can see [[spren]] or ''mafah’liki'' in Unkalaki tongue even when they do not want to appear to him. Horneaters call people with this ability ''alaii’iku''. It is implied there are other people like him. Rock says he was born with it.{{book ref|twok|21}}
He is quite proficient in archery, though he refuses to fight because being a soldier is not considered an esteemed profession in Unkalaki culture.{{book ref|twok|49}}
