Nethseäar he/him Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 (edited) Spren are Cognitive entities manifest in the Physical realm, and exist in their varieties because of human thought and perception, and perhaps also because of fundamental natural forces (or do the natural forces exist because of spren? If I recall correctly, Syl hints at this in Words of Radiance), though that probably also falls under human perception as well.Whatever enough people think about and/or perceive (for long enough) also has a variety of spren associated with it.So, assuming there isn't a hard-and-fast rule that all varieties of spren are general, shouldn't there be spren associated with legendary figures? Heraldspren? Shallashspren? Highprincespren? Dalinarspren? EDIT: FOOL THAT I AM, I only did a search for 'Heraldspren' after I posted this. And, behold, this is a duplicate thread. First posted here.

Melriken Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 Isn't the storm father an Honor-Spren (representation of the person (shard) known as Honor, not the idea of honor (which syl is a Spren of)), similarly the Nightwatcher is a Cultivation-Spren. I doubt even Dalinar creates enough of a reflection to make a Spren, human-Spren should exist though. And the Heralds... Yeah I could see it. Unless Honorspren (like Syl, not the stormfather) are Herald Spren... Or indistinguishable from... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
