Glys has not yet appeared in text, but it is possible that his appearance can be logically derived. If we make the assumption that spren of a given order appear the same, then we may have seen a spren like Glys. The shoemaker [[Ym]] had the ability to use the Surge Progression, his spren had the appearance of a glowing light, with tendrils reaching upward like a plant growing.{{book ref|sa2|i|2}} Both the [[Edgedancers]] and the Truthwatchers could use Progression, but we've seen the spren of the Edgedancers in [[Wyndle]].{{book ref|sa2|i|9}} They take the shape of a growing vine with crystal specks embedded within it. So Ym is presumably a Truthwatcher, and thus Glys probably takes a similar shape to Ym's spren.
 
 
 
It is unknown what type of spren (and therefore all other spren that Truthwatchers bond) Glys is. It is possible that he is a corrupted Reacher, or lightspren, however it seems far more likely that Reachers are actually the type of spren that form Nahel Bonds with Willshapers.

Glys is an unknown type of spren that formed a Nahel bond with Renarin Kholin.[1]

He grants Renarin the powers of the Truthwatchers, an order of the Knights Radiant[1] which gives Renarin access to the Surges of Illumination and Progression.[2] However, Renarin also has visions, which are also possible due to Glys' bond. This bond caused Renarin to hear screams when touching his killed Shardblade, which he initially believed to be a sign of his weakness or possibly insanity. Glys explained otherwise and told Renarin which order of Radiants he had joined.[1]

Glys has been corrupted through contact with Sja-anat.[3]

Please read carefully and note that this is not necessarily canonical.

It is unknown what type of spren (and therefore all other spren that Truthwatchers bond) Glys is. It is possible that he is a corrupted Reacher, or lightspren, however it seems far more likely that Reachers are actually the type of spren that form Nahel Bonds with Willshapers.

It is possible that Glys is a corrupted keenspren (mentioned by Wyndle in Edgedancer) [4]
