I read the WoB on Reddit.. WOOOOW! So for my doubts on Hoid
he isn't a Dawnshard anymore so he's collecting a bit of every shard hoping to gain power in contrasting Rayse.
Really unbelievable <3 can't wait for RoW in a few days *_*

There's really a WoB on this?
Sadly I can't follow all this matter! T_T
And if this is the case:
why is he collecting investiture from all the planets in the cosmere? This would be futile :-k

Spoiler for Dawnshard:
There are 2 things that perplexed me: first is that "Nikkli" asked Rysn to not bond a spren.. but I think, from what "he" said that it's possible for a Dawnshard to bond a spren.
Second: if Dalinar will be a Dawnshard he would be instrumental in defeating Rayse (or at least re-unifying the shards in some way, if not the shard Passion will always try to conquer all the power).. but at the end of SA 2nd era he would be very old.. so, at least, his powers makes him not age, or.. RAFO ^^;;

All four Dawnshards are a Command, like what Awakeners on Nalthis use, the place where invested people see enhanced colors. Why has Dalinar never commented on seeing really vibrant colors like Rysn does?
Maybe spoilers ahead:
Do you remember the sun Rysn saw? It was divided in 4 symmetrical sections (4 Dawnshards, 4 Commands), each one parted into other 4 ones (the 16 shards). Rysn is the Dawnshard CHANGE which "heads" Endowment (and which other Intent? Maybe Autonomy).
..and I agree with the OP: Dalinar is (will be) the Dawnshard of UNITY, "head" of Honor (at least). I think the bond between him and the Stormfather doesn't include that vast power shown in OB (to open a perpendicularity etc). The Stormfather also seemed incredulous. And, remember when Hoid asked Dalinar if he had ever heard of the word Adonalsium (shattered by one or more than one Command/Dawnshard so they will be really instrumental in a new cosmere equilibrium).
Maybe the other 2 Commands will not be from the Rosharan system :-k

...she seems very surprised to find that shes growing.
Maybe these reasons are weaker then I thought they would be. But it also makes sense she would start growing around the same time Dalinar gets his memories back, because it was finally time to grow.
Cultivation made "a pruning" to Lift in the same way she did to Dalinar: she can see part of the future and she's the God for growing so Lift is growing up now, because she needs to resolve her "demons" to help win the battle vs Odium. Don't remember the exact words of Wyndle when we were introduced to them, but he knows she's a child of Cultivation, so there's not only the boon/curse of the Nightwatcher (and I suspect Cultivation was more involved) but something extra
Alas, I don't know all the WoB and I can't recite the books on memory.. so sorry if I'm mistaken.

The one part of the theory I disagree with is the Great spren being thought of as children. The highstorm(and I assume the Stormfather by extension) existed before the Shards arrived. So I think it is plausible all three Great Spren existed before the Shards. Its also possible that some or all were formed after, or even more likely altered by the Shards upon arrival.
I thought the Stormfather as he is "today", the Sliver of Honor, was because Honor splintered. He existed before Honor but was no sentient being, imo.
...as for the Seons on Sel (even if they're not Slivers).

9 Voidbinding orders has nothing to do with that. It's just Odium-specific numerology. Their numerology is 9-centric, while Rosharian numerology is 10-centric.

I can see how the sentence might be a bit tricky to parse -- English is an annoying language sometimes =] Let me rephrase what he said:
Thus, there are spren which are a level below Stormfather and Nightwatcher and those spren are "a much bigger deal" than Cusicesh is.
Yeah I read the quote multiple times and applying a bit of grammar structure I finally got it!
I think it can happen even in our own language, thank you!

Initially I wondered this as well, but this WoB seems to disprove the theory: https://wob.coppermind.net/events/2/#e174
Cusicesh is at least two significant "levels" down from Stormfather and Nightwatcher, and I would have to assume that the third would need to be the same level or at least very very close.
English is not my mother tongue and I'm not sure I understand what you wrote but the WoB you mention also said "there are [...] a much bigger deal than [..] and that's what Cusicesh [the Protector] is".

Alethi and most others call any bird a "chicken" no matter what it is (parrot, parakeet, duck, goose, etc). But it sounds like this "chicken" really is an Aviar.
Yes, it's said in the above posts, my fault.
However:
QuoteShin are known for raising and trading chickens, a species unique to this region of Roshar. They are also famous for their horses, and many varieties of fruit, such as strawberries, can only grow in the soil of Shinovar.
The Aviars may be rare at this point but
Spoilerthe perpendicularity already exists on First of the Sun and Silverlight, where Iyatil, Mraize's master, is from, is already established in the CR, so I don't think there could be a place where they couldn't go.

Fortune is a Spiritual mechanic. Not a shard. This has been confirmed multiple times.
What gives me thought is the phrase Odium used, as if Fortune is a spren or something similar to the Nightwatcher (but I've found another thread using the search
thanks!).

Fortune is a concept present in the cosmere, Spirit Realm 'thing' I think, that affects your luck. It can be stored, making you unlucky, and then tapped again later to increase your luck.
If it's so, could also be that Fortune is an entity of the Cognitive and Spiritual Realm... As much as the Nightwatcher...

No one noticed Odium said to Mr. T. that the last knows the future without even having gone to Fortune? Is Fortune another shard on the Rosharan system?

Weren't the Aviar breeded and taken to the homeland?
In Shinovar there are parrots or "our" chickens
Edit: I believe chickens in Shinovar, from the Interlude of the Thaylen apprentice and I remember something about something similar to a green parrot when Shallan goes to the menagerie in the warcamps with Adolin and Kaladin as their bodyguard.

He expressly said so, but I can't write the quote now, sorry

I think people from Yoden (humanoid and/or not) killed Adonalsium and parted the resulting Shards among them. Hoid is trying to interfere in the fight against Rayse.. And he's accumulating bits of Investiture from all the planets, then all the Shards, to "have a say" in the matter and... maybe trying to re-compose Adonalsium.
For all the greed he displays, he made an oath to be where there's need for help (only for the Stormlight Archive, think about what he's done for Dalinar - he first mentioned Adonalsium to him, Kaladin, Shallan etc). So... I don't think he wants all this power for himself, and the Invested bits work differently on another planet, under another type of Investiture.

From the Coppermind we know that the Stormfather existed before the shattering of Adonalsium. Then Tanavast came to Roshar and [...] Rayse killed him, splintering Honor. As per Dalinar words in Oathbringer, now Dalinar is something different: Unity, made of Dalinar body and will (his part of Intent?), the Sliver of Honor (the Stormfather) he's still bonding to (soul), and part of the "mind" of the previous full Shard (the other part of Intent, Honor).

I think Hoid's real goal is to fight Rayse over the splintering of Adonalsium. He's collecting Investiture all around the cosmere to be some kind of Adonalsium: he has a little bit of power of every Shard.

My two cents: what if Ambition from the Threnodite system was the shard killed on Ashyn where were humans (that fled to Roshar)?

A different point: If we believe Nalan, Jezrien himself was no windrunner (Nalan believes he is the only Herald to have become a member of his own Order of KR), so his death should have no real impact on the powers of the windrunners. Most galling is that Moash is now in possession of the windrunner Honorblade. To become a Herald, Kaladin would have to fight him for that.
Aehm... Sorry, but.... Wasn't it Szeth who had the windrunner honorblade, then taken by Kaladin after their duel? ...and the honorblade granted the power of its order to the owner (without a Nahel bond).
I haven't already read OB and I'm reading these sections wanting SPOILERS

I think that each of the herald is getting worse in some different way. Jezrien is a drooling drunk, Ash is so vain she destroys any artistic work of herself, Kalak is paranoid and scared of everything, and Nale sees the law as an obstacle he has to work within rather than a method to reach justice. These probably relate to the nature of each Herald. Jezrien is supposed to be a leader, Ash is supposed to value art, Kalak is supposed to be a resolute builder, and Nalan is supposed to value justice.
So.. you've found another KR.. you see?
Ps: hi to all, I'll move to the presentation section.. so please excuse me if I didn't already read all other theories

Could Dalinar be a Dawnshard?
in Stormlight Archive

Another tidbit that makes me agree with the OP is that the visions related to the warm light Dalinar experienced weren't given by the Stormfather (he didn't know about this visions and told Dalinar so).
