RShara

I took Eshonai's last scene to be in the battle with Adolin in WoR.

You're welcome! I'm still skeptical of your theory, though. Mostly because Plate can still be broken, while Blades can't (easily). So if sprenblades are solidified investiture, aka God-metal, and Plate is also solidified investiture, why can Plate be broken when Blades can't?

Brandon's said that the flashback character doesn't have to be alive during their book. I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to be mean. I can see where you're coming from and why you think that Timbre could've been Eshonai. But alas, it's not the case. So goes many of my own theories

Welcome to the forums! THat's an interesting theory! Sadly, Brandon has confirmed that there are not 10 Unmade. https://wob.coppermind.net/events/173-oathbringer-san-francisco-signing/#e8598

Okay, well Timbre says that her grandfather was killed in the Recreance. So she really can't be Eshonai.

I would suggest using one of the existing threads for the discussion, as duplicate threads are frowned upon. Here is one that has a similar starting point:

It's like cake. If you add something to the cake, it's not the same as the original cake. If you cut a slice off the cake, it's smaller, but it's the same cake. Mmmm-mmmm!

The Unmade are confirmed to be Splinters of Odium https://wob.coppermind.net/events/100-rbooks-ama-2015/#e1672

I don't understand what you're trying to say with the quotes. What part am I to find odd? No it wouldn't. He'd be a little less powerful, depending on how much Investiture he gave up. But giving up some of his power wouldn't change his intent. Why would it? Was Preservation any less Preservation for giving up a bunch of his power to make humans? Is Endowment any less Endowment for making Returned? And yes, he has said that Odium would not take up other Shards because he likes his Intent the way it is.

The Rosharans call any sentient piece of investiture "spren." So yes, technically they are spren. But they are confirmed Splinters of Odium.

Anything Sja-Anat touches gets corrupted, or "Enlightened" as he puts it. She corrupted a whole bunch in Kholinar. Glys was just unlucky/lucky enough to be one that was corrupted and then got bonded. The humans sometimes give their spren their name, unless the spren remembers and is willing to communicate their name. Pattern, for instance. Ym never named his spren, iirc. Venli names Timbre. I think Ivory took up that name in irony. So Sja-Anat wouldn't necessarily have known Glys's name. I'm not sure what you mean by "We don't know if the unmade are related to the spren for sure." Sja-anat considers the spren she's corrupted as her children. The Unmade are Splinters of Odium.

Because so far as we have been able to see, voidspren don't grant surges. Renarin has Regrowth and some sort of future-vision ability. Basically, it seems like he has one Surge and one voidbind ability. This would fit in with Glys being a corrupted radiantspren. In addition, Sja-Anat talks about his "son", who is likely Glys. (Who else is there that might be a "son" of Sja-Anat?) Additionally, that chapter states explicitly that Glys was changed.

Voidspren are a specific type of spren, the ones that Odium can control directly. Glys is a corrupted Radiantspren. As in, it was touched by Sja-Anat, so isn't a normal radiant spren any more. However, given that Glys doesn't seem particularly obedient to Odium, and Sja-anat is trying to rebel as well, I would say there is quite a bit of difference.

And Gaaaahhh Moash, you jerk!

As Harry Dresden said, it's Vader Syndrome. (Spoilers for Dresden Files: Dead Beat)

Only if he thinks of himself as her squire, and she thinks of him as one too. Just being around a radiant isn't enough to become a squire. There has to be Intent and Connection, and maybe Identity.

We don't really have any information on this yet. It probably is the same gem he talks about to Kaladin, that "became worthless for his wearing it." I'm sure we'll find out eventually. I doubt it has anything specific to do with Roshar, though.

They had 8 Honorblades. One of the ones they don't have is Taln's. Nale stole his back centuries ago, so that makes 8. Szeth was given one when he was exiled, so they only have 7 now. When Taravangian lies to Szeth about one of the Honorblades being stolen, Szeth's answer is: You might be remembering this phrase: The number 8 that he's referring to includes the Windrunner blade, since he used the past tense of HAD care of.

I think Timbre is a willshaper spren? Which means they're probably the Reachers that we saw in Shadesmar. Also, we've seen passionspren and they're not one of the sapient ones.

If they're like ferrets (which minks are), it's very likely they're used to hunt rats and cremlings.

How about Erica Cerra for Jasnah? https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/eureka/images/c/c1/Jopicture.png/revision/latest?cb=20120811203724

Ash and Taln are going to be viewpoint characters in the back five.

I'll just repeat myself. A Mistborn with atium is really hard to defeat. Atium burns fast, but we haven't put a limit to how much atium or stormlight is available. Also, remember, Mistborn can do more than just push and pull on objects. Riot or Soothe emotions, see the person's potential other self (malatium), create speed bubbles or slow bubbles, increase their senses and strength. And Duralumin can do help do crazy things.

I thought they use minks as rat and vermin catchers?

No worries. It was pretty hard to find. I was actually referencing it for my theory's purposes, so I happened to have it saved. Otherwise, it didn't actually come up in search results that I could see
