[OB] Forms of power

[rjl]

The spren that grant forms of power are red, or at least all the ones I've seen described are; they are very specifically not Gold.

Now, see this WOB: https://wob.coppermind.net/events/173-oathbringer-san-francisco-signing/#e8340

Theory: forms of power are of Honor and/or Cultivation but somehow/at some point the Spren that grant them were co-opted or corrupted by Honor.

I note that I am speaking not of the fused here but specifically of the other forms of power.

The spren itself wouldn't have to be red to give a bonded singer red eyes. So, I still see no reason to doubt Syl's identification of the yellow spren as a voidspren. I doubt that every KR order's spren matches their eye color; it's possible, but I doubt it.

I'm not commenting on the eye colour but rather the storm spren and other spren we've seen granting forms of power - unless I've missed it we very specifically have not seen one of the gold odium-spren bond a parshman.

@rjl Aside from stormform, what other voidspren that grant forms of power have we seen? The other forms of power referenced throughout OB have been very nondescript as they relate to abilities and spren.

Hmm you may be right, I'll look for evidence either way during a re-read.
