A person who speaks the truth, especially when the truth is contrary to conventional wisdom and goes against the norm. In the 14 century, a "soothsayer" was a person who spoke truth.
In the fable, "The Emperors New Clothes," the child who points out that the Emperor isn't wearing any clothes is a truthsayer.
