New Spren Discovered


cookiespren

Recommended Posts

Good news everyone! Your intensive research into the workings of the Cosmere has led to the discovery of a new type of spren: myself, the cookiespren ;)

As many of you might have already suspected, the cookie---a delicacy without equal---must be designed by the gods and therefore highly invested. It is also hardly a surprise that this investiture would take the form of a spren on Roshar.

Unfortunately, I was told by the other spren that there is no more room for another order of the Knights Radiant on Roshar. So the Cosmere will never be enriched by the flavor of cookiemonsters (humans bonded to cookiespren)...

But who knows. Maybe I'm allowed to make an exception if you can guess all oaths of the cookiemonsters.

I thought humans bonded to cookiespren were Inquisitors...

But welcome to the Shard!

I will neither confirm nor deny this allegation...but the cookiemonsters have many different names on the various worlds of the Cosmere :ph34r: Just because we haven't been allowed to bond with humans doesn't mean we actually haven't :)

Do you know any cookies? Because that is actually one of the oaths :blink:

And I read your whole post as Prof. Farnsworth. 

hmm. I think a Prof. Farnsworth was supposed to be the Herald of Cookies before someone limited the number of heralds to 10. Your insider information is seriously disconcerting.

Oath 1:  Cookie before Death!  Cookie before Weakness!  Cookie before Destination!

Oath 2: Must eat all Cookie.  Num num num

Oath 3: Eat all cook..num num num

Oath 4: Num num...(illegiable words) num num, cookie soooo goo...num num num, no more oath, MORE COOKIE!

"I will not improvise until I have learned a recipe. The basics of cooking are key." 

Am I doing this right? 

Not really, but you're also not completely wrong. It's just that the intent behind your proposed oath is the same as the intent behind:

"I will bake with caution, so that cookies will never burn"

Hence, both oaths are equivalent and just worded differently.

"I will master the balance. Crunchy outside, chewy inside" 

This one in itself is also not an oath but parts of it appear in a variation of the first ideal, preferred by many cookiemonsters:

"Food before hunger. Crunchy before chewy. Baking before eating."

None of the above is an oath of the cookiemonsters. However, the intent behind the stated oaths matches the third oath of the cookiemonsters...so I think I will let it count. Usually, the third oath is formulated as follows:

"I will never say no to a cookie."

But I urge you to be careful! Many recruits of the cookiemonsters interpreted the third oath too selfishly and were then unable to discover the fourth oath.

Also not an oath of the cookiemonsters, but it reminds me of one of their powers. Cookiemonsters are able to turn cookies into Stormlight and vice versa. And, compared to Soulcasting, the cookies you get that way still taste delicious.

Cookiespren, you may appreciate my choice for the only costume I've ever owned. 598c39a7c14e2_images(12).jpg.5f17c97430d593036af7c33bfda548e4.jpg

I of course was Cookie. Wore it to an international sporting event as well. But alas it expired. My wish ever since has been for some kind of invincible, adaptable Cookie Monster outfit instead. I guess what I'm asking is, if I bond with your kind, will I get my own Cookieplate once I reach the 5th Oath?

I'm pretty sure that your kind migrated to Earth and made a new type of Earth appropriate Radiant - the cookie monster

There actually is a group of cookiespren that migrated to "Earth". According to rumors, they hide there in a Dark Alley and slowly convert all of humanity to our noble ways. But the converted humans on earth are not really cookiemonsters. Earth is missing the necessary Investiture to complete an actual Nahel Bond. But we have found other, darker (chocolate) ways... There is no escape from us cookiespren :D

That is some devotion to the cookie! All the cookies to you!

At the latest. But some creative cookiemonsters were able to get something similar much earlier. They just used their powers to turn Stormlight into a cookie armor. And as long as they had Stormlight, they were even able to automatically repair any damage to their armor.

Just beware of milk. Although very tasty, a cookie armor soaked in milk is not very sturdy.

By "Dark Alley" do you mean Sesame Street? ;)
