| − | Spanky is a [[Cognitive Shadow]].{{wob ref|1542}} Hoid speaks to Spanky and they are able to mumble something in return, so they seem to retain a low level of sapience.{{msh ref|2|1}} It is difficult to move Cognitive Shadows between planets,{{wob ref|4843}} so it is likely that Spanky physically died on Scadrial. There are multiple methods of becoming a Cognitive Shadow in the [[cosmere]], but they are relatively rare on Scadrial.{{wob ref|4361}} Spanky's origin and the reason why they are mostly unresponsive to their surroundings are unknown. |

| − | ==History== |
||
| − | As a Cognitive Shadow, Spanky was able to float on the mists of the Scadrian [[subastral]]. Because Hoid partly existed in the [[Physical Realm]], he used the corpse as a vessel to avoid falling through the mists.{{msh ref|2|1}} How Hoid first found Spanky is not known. He carried an oar that he coated with a glowing substance made of [[Investiture]]{{wob ref|1542}} in order to allow him to steer the spirit as he rode it.{{msh ref|2|1}} Hoid claimed that Spanky's parents were still living, although he was bantering with [[Kelsier]] and may have fabricated this fact.{{msh ref|2|1}} |

+ | | Oh, Spanky here is just a spirit. It’s damnably difficult to get about in this subastral -- anyone physical risks slipping through these mists and falling, perhaps forever. So many thoughts pool together here, becoming what you see around you, and you need something finer to travel over it all |
