The '''Parshendi''' are a race of creatures on the world of [[Roshar]], featured in [[The Stormlight Archive]].
 
 
They live in the area of Roshar known as the [[Shattered plains]] and seem to be related to (and physically resemble in some aspects) [[Parshmen|The Parshmen]]. However, the Parshendi are mentally much more intelligent than the Parshmen. Male Parshendi grow beards, which they thread through beads infused with [[stormlight]].
 
 
The Parshendi were originally discovered by [[Gavilar|King Gavilar]] during a hunting trip. Not much is known about the ways of the Parshendi. They appear to have a form of {{wp|Collective_consciousness|hive mind}}.
 
 
Physically, the parshendi are well-built and have marbled skin patterns of white and red or black and red.They also grow a form of chitinous armor on their chests and head.
 
 
They hired [[Szeth]] to assassinate the King of Alethkar, [[Gavilar]], on the eve of a treaty with the Alethkar people. They instructed him to wear white because it is a Parshendi tradition for assassinations.
 
 
They seem to have an affection for the drum and other rhythmic instruments and sing while fighting.
