nightblood

[Nightblade]

Theory related to the returned: The connection between lifeless and awakened inanimate objects are they both need commands and someone to think/command them, That would make the returned and Nightblood connected, A human who came back and is sentient and a inanimate object that has sentience, Returned how they perceive themselves is how they look So would how Nightblood sees himself how he manifests? Could he change forms, or get a body like a human?

I don't think I fully understand your question, but I will give it a go. I don't think that Nightblood can change his perception of himself, as he is basically an artificial spren. He basically takes what other people think is evil and helps them to destroy it.

You compare Returned and Nightblood to each other, but one is formed by a Shard, and had sentience before death. Nightblood has no previous frame of reference. There is a chance that he might be able to change from one weapon to another, but it's doubtful.

In any case, welcome to the Shard!
