Do you think it's possible for their to be additional orders of Knights Radiant?

[ArcticWindrunner he/him]

Do you guys think its possible that their are other orders of knights radiant that cross different surgebindings from the 10 we know? Like combine Gravitation and Adhesion? or would they have a new power? Would this affect the other Spren's surges?

[Experience he/him]

I guess there is a chance. It would have to be different spren for each, and I dont know what the chances are that a new spren bonds someone and it does something like that.

Brandon has said that the Surges come in the pairs they do for a reason, they are linked somehow. He also has said that new orders/spren are theoretically possible.

10 is already enough, I like the idea of each book focusing in one order

One. Can there be Nahel Bonds with more then ten types of spren because we have ten Orders.

Brandon Sanderson

Meaning, are there other possible spren that could form other Orders of Knights Radiant that are not the ten? This is theoretically possible, but that is basically what you could argue is happening to Renarin. So now if you want to say... if you want to throw out the exception of spren who were one of the ten who got changed, then this is theoretically possible but right now currently wouldn't work.

As far as we know there are only 10 Surges, though we don't really know what that really means nor why. There's a reason why the surge pairs formed the way they formed to make up the Orders but again, we don't know why. I assume it's natural but also constructed: the Surges were first paired (we assume) by Honor to forge the Honorblades and which was then copied by the Nahel spren to form the Orders. But other spren can also be Bonded, whether they might grant the Surges or odd Surge pairs is unknown. Odd Surge combinations should be possible via mechanical means.

I think that just have ten orders is enough because then theoretically we could have up to 100 orders.

Oh, no, no, no, no, theoretically we could have infinate, along with corrupted variants, and CS, oh we've only scratched the surface.

The only limit is the people's imagination. Literally. They just need to have enough emotions or other things that can be spren.

Oops, could have sworn I said Gravitation and Abrasion.

Thank you all for your thoughts!
