Well, the Unmade can be Bonded

Questioner

Can the Unmade be bonded?

Brandon Sanderson

Wow, plausible... Yes, or possible, I should say.

Words of Radiance Philadelphia signing (March 21, 2014)

The Unmade are Odium's equivalent to the Bondsmith spren in terms of power but just being a powerful unique spren doesn't make one a Bondsmith spren, otherwise Cusicesh the Protector would've been a Bondsmith spren:

Are Bondsmith spren created as a matter of intent by Shards or are they 'natural' insofar as any spren made of enough Investiture would create a Bondsmith bond? That is, for example, the Everstorm is clearly a giant mass of Odium's Investiture, if someone were to bond its spren (which is presumably very young and insensate currently), would it form a Bondsmith bond as a matter of (super)natural laws or would Odium have to tweak something on a metaphysical level to allow a Bondsmith bond to form?

Brandon Sanderson

It wouldn't naturally become a Bondsmith spren, as it's not JUST the amount of Investiture that makes one. (For example, there's that odd spren in Iri that has a ton of Investiture, but didn't become a Radiant spren.) To become a Radiant spren requires some different things.

A Bond with an Unmade would result in something new, not exactly a Bondsmith

I think if one of the Unmade could make another Bondsmith, it would be Ba-Ado-Mishram, as she connected with the singers in false desolation, granted them forms of power and Voidlight. Those skills remind me of the Bondsmiths, but we'll have to wait for the fifth book

I agree. I think the spren needs sapience. Cusicesh doesn’t show any signs of intelligence superior to other spren, he just does the same thing every day, at the same time, in the same place.

The stormfather wasn't originally sapient. Still, if Cusicesh would have worked I doubt they'd have stayed at three boundsmiths
