Sjsharks93 Posted May 29, 2022 Report Share Posted May 29, 2022 Aux is very different from honorspren we know in a few ways, behavior, abilities, and of course naming. My theory for why is that Aux is an enlightened honorspren turned deadeye, and this is giving all sorts of weird powers. Thoughts? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+ShardlessVessel Posted May 29, 2022 Report Share Posted May 29, 2022 My own thoughts are similar to yours. I think Nomad is bonded to a deadeye, and is sufficiently Invested to be something similar to a Radiant, but not a Radiant. I'm pretty convinced that Aux and Nomad have a sort of inverted Radiant bond. Normally, the surgebinder uses the power and the spren just acts as a mediator, but Nomad asks Aux to do magic for him, as if the Blade were the Knight instead. And Aux does call himself a knight... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazman Posted June 5, 2022 Report Share Posted June 5, 2022 It makes sense that Auxiliary could be kind of like the knight in the bond between them and Nomad. It could also be that Auxiliary is kind of like a deadeye that was healed, similar to how Adolin and Maya are. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brgst13 Posted June 6, 2022 Report Share Posted June 6, 2022 The more I think about this and listen to the discussion I am forced to wonder if Aux and Nomad at some point underwent a Realmatic exchange where Aux is a Physical being and Sig is a Cognitive being. This would explain why so much of their relationship seems to be inverted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dawnshards are Commands, and when you "take" a Dawnshard, you explicitly become that Dawnshard. As I see it, a Command is an inherently Cognitive thing, so it would make sense that it would change the person into a Cognitive being as well. If Aux were manifested as a weapon when Sig became the Dawnshard, that Connection could have short-circuited the transformation process, flipping their natures. Aux goes Cognitive to Physical and Sigzil goes from Physical to Cognitive. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
