One process of unmaking is documented with [[Raboniel]]'s attempt to unmake the [[Sibling]]. While [[Investiture|Invested]] with [[Voidlight]], Raboniel placed her hands on the Sibling's pillar. The Sibling reacted by glowing with [[Towerlight]]. The Voidlight moved from Raboniel into the pillar's embedded garnets, starting the process of corruption.{{book ref|sa4|38}} If she had been able to continue, the Sibling says she would infuse the entire pillar with Voidlight in the proper order and utilize the [[Surgebinding#Transformation|Surge of Transformation]].{{book ref|sa4|42}}

|I find Ba-Ado-Mishram to be the most interesting of the Unmade. She is said to have been keen of mind, a highprincess among the enemy forces, their commander during some of the Desolations. I do not know how this relates to the ancient god of the enemy, named Odium.

Little is known of the Unmade '''[[Chemoarish]]'''. By the modern [[Era of Solitude]], she is known as the '''Dustmother''' and often is conflated with the [[Nightwatcher]].{{epigraph ref|sa3|108}} There is a variety of lore associated with her, but all of it is currently unknown.

From the length of her name, it seems unlikely that she is among the more intelligent of the Unmade.
According to [[Hessi]], she is not one of the three great mindless Unmade.{{epigraph ref|sa3|104}}
