'''Dai-Gonarthis''' is believed to be one of the [[Unmade]],{{epigraph ref|sa3|113}} an ancient and terrible [[spren]] of [[Odium]].{{book ref|sa3|62}} They also seem to be known as the '''Black Fisher'''.{{epigraph ref|sa1|67}}
+
'''Dai-gonarthis''' is an unknown being mentioned on [[Roshar]].{{epigraph ref|sa1|67}} He appears to also be called the '''Black Fisher'''
   
  +
In one of the [[Death Rattle]]s collected by King [[Taravangian]]'s [[Silent Gatherer]]s, the dying woman mentions the name Dai-gonarthis.{{epigraph ref|sa1|67}}
[[Hessi]] posits in ''[[Mythica]]'' that Dai-Gonarthis may have been involved in the [[scouring of Aimia]], although she's unsure of the specifics. She also expresses uncertainty that they are one of the Unmade at all.{{epigraph ref|sa3|113}} However, it seems likely that Dai-Gonarthis is truly the final Unmade, as [[Jezrien]], in the guise of Ahu, refers to the Black Fisher together with two other Unmade—[[Re-Shephir]] and [[Moelach]]—during one of his conversations with [[Dalinar Kholin]].{{book ref|sa3|88}} Additionally, the name Dai-Gonarthis is used in a [[Death Rattle]] collected by the [[Silent Gatherer]]s in a manner similar to Death Rattles about the Unmade Re-Shephir and [[Yelig-nar]].{{epigraph ref|sa1|67}}{{epigraph ref|sa1|58}}{{epigraph ref|sa1|45}}
 
   
  +
It seems likely that he is an [[Unmade]], due to the similarities in his title and name to [[Yelig-nar]], a known Unmade.{{epigraph ref|sa1|45}} It also mentions the word "consume," which seems to be often used in connection with the Unmade.
== Trivia ==
 
* The name Dai-Gonarthis is most likely derived from [[wikipedia:Dagon|Dagon]], an ancient Canaanite deity later reimagined as a Lovecraftian sea god.{{url ref|url=https://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/62476-ob-unmade-name-linguistic-origins/|text=Unmade Name Linguistic Origins|site=17th Shard}}
