'''Ulim''' is a [[Voidspren]] who worked with [[Venli]] to bring about the [[Everstorm]] and the [[True Desolation]]. Among the [[Fused]] he is known as the '''Envoy''' for his role in ushering their Return.{{book ref|sa3|i|6}}

== Appearance and Personality ==
Ulim appears in a red, human form. Venli describes his eyes as odd, suggesting a Shin ethnicity, or possibly non-[[Roshar]]an. He has long hair that ripples as if being blown by wind, and his size is typically small enough to fit on the palm of a hand. When particularly passionate, his form seems to electrify. When moving across surfaces, Ulim appears as rolling lightning. He can move through the air in a sudden bolt of lightning but seems to require a surface of some kind to rest on.{{book ref|sa3|i|3}} Ulim can render himself invisible at will, and used that capability to hide from most Listeners for years.{{book ref|sa4|86}}

Ulim often speaks with an arrogant, spiteful attitude marked by human mannerisms, as noted by [[Hariel]].{{book ref|sa3|i|6}} He has little compassion or respect for the [[listener]]s, despite having worked closely with Venli for many years. He addresses them as children, mocks their war against the [[Alethi]], and treats Venli's mourning over the loss of Eshonai with derision.{{book ref|sa3|i|3}} In contrast, Ulim speaks with deference when in the presence of the Fused, for whom he has great fear and respect.{{book ref|sa3|i|3}}{{book ref|sa3|i|6}}

== History ==

Ulim somehow managed to escape from [[Braize]] to [[Roshar]]. He made contact with Venli several years ago and convinced her that they should work together to bring about the return of her people's gods.{{book ref|sa3|i|6}} The pair collaborated secretly to capture [[stormspren]] and make the discovery of [[stormform]]. Though Venli took credit for the research, Ulim was primarily responsible for the work performed.{{book ref|sa3|i|7}}

After the summoning of the Everstorm, Ulim revealed himself to the surviving listeners and became somewhat of a leader to them. He directed Venli and others to search in the chasms for Eshonai's body in order to claim her [[Shardblade]] and [[Shardplate]] before pressing them to meet up with the Fused.{{book ref|sa3|i|3}} He instructed Venli, [[Demid]], and seven other listeners on how to prepare themselves to be taken by the souls of the Fused at the coming of an Everstorm.{{book ref|sa3|i|6}}
