Captain Demoux and Vivenna

Captain Demoux is of the Seventeenth Shard, and he's been looking for Hoid forever. Vivenna is searching for Vasher. Both of them were on Roshar and decided to team up in search of their quarry. They eventually parted ways when their searches took them in different directions. (By the way, I love your theory about Pewter Savants and Greatshells.)

Mistwraiths and an Awakened pair of pants.

[Daughter of Tanavast she/her]

Someone (probably Lightsong) got bored and Awakened a pair of pants, which ended up traveling in Vasher's pack to Scadrial. Well, Vasher lost the pack. Mistwraiths are searching for their humanity (kandra-manity?) as they wander around consuming dead animals. Mistwraiths can't tell the difference between actual life and Awakened life, so one of them consumed the pants. 

Chickens on Roshar and Llarimar.

[Singer she/her]

Llarimar had a pet parakeet that he loved dearly, but it flew away one night and managed to stow away with Vasher when he came to Roshar. It flew away from Vasher, only to immediately be caught by some Alethi warriors on their way to the Shattered Plains. They didn't know what to do with the "chicken" so they gave it to Dalinar, their high prince, who gave it to the kitchen staff. They cooked the poor thing up and it was the very chicken that Adolin ate before the fateful duel that won him a crem ton of shards and landed Kaladin in jail.

Soulcasters and The Lord Ruler

Soulcasters and The Lord Ruler

Using the well established trade routes of the Scadrian Subastral (that the Lord Ruler obviously knew about), he secretly smuggled a Soulcaster (both the fabrial and the practitioner) into the Final Empire that was capable of transmuting substances into metal. Through trial and error and using the advanced metallurgical knowledge of the Final Empire, the Lord Ruler discovered an investiture hack for powering the soulcasting fabrials, namely creating a gem shaped crucible composed of Tantalum Hafnium carbide that could fit perfectly into the gem sockets of the soulcaster. By merely touching the Tantalum crucible while the subject metals were being burnt at insanely high temperature, the Lord Ruler could provide the necessary access key to the investiture, and alter the pathway of it's manifestation to directly power the soulcaster.

Using his Soulcaster, the Lord Ruler was able to finally create the ultimate concealed metal mind, namely he turned a pair of tighty whitey underwear into a solid gold health sink that he could wear at all times. (Just in case you were wondering, clever hatches were designed to allow the Lord Ruler to go about his *ahem* business in a more or less regular fashion). There has been quite a bunch of talk amongst the skaa, and I highly suspect that the rumours are true, that like Drax, the Lord Ruler made famously large Ashmounts.

Dysian Aimians and Ambition

[Shard of Reading he/him]

Sleepless are Autonomy's avatars because they are all seperate parts that are semi-automus (I suck at spelling sorry). Autonomy hates Ambition because once before they were shard holders ambition stole autonomy's nachos.

Now, all sleepless have declared war on Autonomy.

Choose 1 of the 2 and A world hopping rosharian chicken that is currently on yolen: The physical bridge four, or Braize

[first void]

the bridge, of course, has a spren. This spren has been strengthened by the association with the group now called bridge four. Through this, it has changed to more embody the spirit of the group. This has gone so far as to make it similar to a mini shard in the concept of bridge. as it bridged between wildly different people(and a singer), it shall next form a bridge to Braize for a magnificent assault on the place to free the heralds and end Odium.

EDIT: next theory, Chouta and Ruin

Edited June 12, 2020 by first void
forgot next theory stuff

[Spren of Kindness she/her]

Ruin hates chouta, and if he had completed his quest to destroy Scadrial, would have gone on to Roshar in order to destroy chouta.

 

Lightsong and Inquisitors

Lightsong and Inquisitors

When Lightsong sacrificed his breath, he drifted off into the Cognitive Realm to find Endowment and Blushweaver waiting for him. Unfortunately for Endowment, Lightsong and Blushweaver would not stop bickering long enough for her to speak. While Lightsong held onto a shred of life through determination to have the final word, Endowment became distracted by the theological implications of Blushweavers *ahem* assets.

Endowment's holder, Edgli, reached enlightenment from her contemplation and passed into the Beyond. Blushweaver appropriately took control of the Shard, becoming even more well Endowed.

Lightsong, reconsidering his religious beliefs, had his thoughts interrupted when he was ripped from the Cognitive Realm and shoved back into his body to find himself surrounded by Pahn Kahl and newly spiked. The Pahn Kahl attempted to give Lightsong orders to fight Susebron. However, anyone who knows Lightsong knows he is exceedingly terrible at following direction. Instead of supporting a revolution he spoke of his new religious beliefs regarding Endowment. This is how Inquisitor Lightsong accidentally started a religion.

Harmony, having learned of these events through Lightsong's spikes and ever the lover of religions, became the author of a thesis entitled "The Theological Implications of Blushweavers Endowment." This thesis will someday bring peace to the Shards as they in turn reach enlightenment, allowing the restoration of Adolnasium.

 

Parshendi and Elantris

Parshendi and Elantris

During the expedition under the aegis of high prince Hanavanar to the Horneater Peaks to study the geanological origin of Veden red hair, a parshman servant fell into Cultivation's perpendicularity.

Having bathed in Cultivation's pure investiture, Svjeck the Parshman had his spiritual Connection restored, and thus started a series of comic misadventures as the good natured, seemingly dense but really quite clever Svjeck made his way through Shadesmar (the stories of his adventures in shadesmar have been collected in the very funny volume "The Good Parshman Svjeck"). Svjeck's adventures culminated in the episode where he tricked the lighthouse keeper Riino into trading his fortune ball for a small piece of kippered purelake fish, the kind that reduces gas and soothes indigestion. He also managed to sneak off with a travel brochure on the Fabled City of Elantris, after re-trading Riino's fortune ball back to him for passage to Sel's Cognitive Realm.

The Dor was easy to deal with, he had heard it talked up quite a bit but thought it was like the Weeping, he'd gone out in full highstorms to take naps back in Vedenar.

Passing through the Shardpool in Elantris with his pack full of items he had traded, tricked, gambled and cajoled out of the denizens of Shadesmar, he had enough resources to barter his way into opening a pub in Elantris. Working with Gallodon, Svjeck quickly setup a series of Aons capable of replicating all of Roshar's varieties of alcohol and he developed a Selish version of Chouta. The money rolled in as the taps ran with Lavis beer, Rosharan wine, and for the truly brave Horneater white.

Once his business was established, Svjeck setup a CR convoy system, bringing Parshmen and distillation supplies from Jah Keved. The honorspren that told Kaladin that Odium's forces and the fuzed were gathering at the Horneater Peak's perpendicularity was mistaken, that was really just Svjeck's convoy of distillation supplies and Parshmen emigrants to Elantris.

 

Mraize, Hoid's flute and an unsealed metalmind.

Hood's flute is an unsealed metalmind that stores mental speed, and he gave it to Kaladin so he could discover the meaning of Hoid's stories faster. Hoid was annoyed with Kaladin for losing it because he'd put years of his mental speed into it. Mraize likes collecting magical objects from other worlds, and thought the flute would be a great addition to his collection.Mraize now has Hoid's flute.

 

Aviar and Reen's obsidian

Aviar and Reen's obsidian

The parasites that make Aviar Invested have 3 stages to their life cycle: Larva, Adult, and Chrysalis. During the final stage, all the worms in the body converge towards a single point, where they concentrate their Investiture into an obsidian-like shell, which grands futuresight to those that hold it. Ruin meant to kill Vin so that the other sister would be even better to control (since the direct guidance of Ruin would allow for maximum transfer of Investiture). He sent an off-world agent to gain an Aviar chrysalis so that Reen would be able to avoid the dangers of the underground. However, their mother, being crazy, killed the other sister and gave the earring to Vin. When Reen left, he no longer had access to futuresight and was unable to avoid the Inquisitors. During the time between Vin leaving Camon's crew and the Inqusitor slaughtering them all, the chrysalis hatched, spreading the worms through the Scadrian ecosystem and possibly giving giraffes futuresight.

Wayne and Lift

MeLaan is in fact the world hopping Kandra, and is Lift's mother as well. Wayne is Lift's dad, but for reasons that remain a mystery he didn't accompany MeLaan to Roshar.

MeLaan was called back to Scadrial by Harmony, but due to Lift's budding Radiance she couldn't make the journey through the sub-astrals with her mom, and she was left in Rall Elorim with a trusted agent who unfortunately died leaving Lift alone and orphaned. Due to her inherited aptitude for thievery, Lift was able to get by on her own.

 

Cusicesh and the Dawnshards.

[rosin_the_beau he/him]

Cusicesh is called the Protector. However, he is not protecting the Dawnshards. What he is protecting is a map to the weapon that shattered Adonalsium. However this weapon was broken by Honor sometime after the shattering, and he used the pieces to make the Dawnshards, which are currently being used as the blades for a ceiling fan on a small island on the back side of Roshar.

Oathbringer can be shattered, and the pieces used to create duraluminum, but when a Mistborn or Misting uses the duraluminum from Oathbringer, they will essentially yeet peoples souls from their bodies using a duraluminum-fueled mental Shardblade.

I'm a simple man. I see game, I click.

Umm... Wayne's hat was created molecule by molecule as Raoden practiced his Aons. Hoid had to worldhop to take the hat from Elantris to Scadrial.

Shardblades and Aviar

The symbiotic relationship of the worm and the Aviar makes it invested and such can't be cut by a shardblade, but there exists an aviar with a really hard beak that can eat a shardblade bit by bit! Poor spren...

Ham (the misting) and Lopen!

I'm brand-new, so I'm not very theory-fluent, but here goes...

Both Ham and Lopen are secretly worldhoppers, and often meet up in the Cognitive Realm. Ham talks philosophy and Lopen brings his sage advice (and chouta!). Ham has tried the chouta, but has not as of yet disclosed an opinion on it.

Taldain's Darkside and Elend Venture.

Elend and Vin's black/white color scheme was suggested to Elend by Trell/Bavadin, who of course was referencing Taldain's Darkside and Dayside.
