'''Lightspren''', more commonly known in [[Shadesmar]] as '''Reachers''', are a subset of spren.
==Appearance==
In Shadesmar Reachers appear human though they have metallic bronze skin, similar to living statues.{{book ref|sa3|99}} They have bronze metal eyes with holes for the pupils.{{book ref|sa3|101}} The ones on Captain [[Ico|Ico's]] ship wear human clothing, though they are barefoot.
It's currently unknown what Reachers look like in the [[Physical Realm]].
==Culture==
They are often guides in Shadesmar as they like to travel to different places, trading and selling goods.{{book ref|sa3|93}} They use [[Mandras]] to pull their ships.{{book ref|sa3|99}} There are Reaches living in Celebrant{{book ref|oathbringer|102}}, Captain Ico's daughter once lived in the city and worked there at the moneychangers.{{book ref|oathbringer|101}}

{{theory}}
Reachers are the spren of an order of the [[Knights Radiant]], as Captain Ico's father is a [[deadeye]] who was killed during the [[Recreance]].{{book ref|sa3|101}} Which order they belong to is currently unknown.
