Horde

A non-human Cosmere species that exists as a distributed swarm of small bodies — *hordelings* — coordinated by a single mind. A horde can spread its physical presence across the area of a nation, gives itself names like *Chinikdakordich, the sixtieth horde of the Natricatich strain*, and refers to itself in the plural even when wearing a human disguise. According to Design, a horde never settles on a planet without surveying every inch of it. The face Masaka wears in Kilahito is the product of years of breeding to make the whole face a single seamless piece of skin. STD:YNP:Ch 33
