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. }} '''Ba-Ado-Mishram,''' sometimes called just ~~'''Ado''' or~~ '''Mishram''',{{epigraph ref\|sa4\|97}} is one of the [[Unmade]],{{epigraph ref\|sa3\|106}} an ancient and terrible [[spren]] of [[Odium]].{{book ref\|sa3\|62}} She is a sapient Unmade{{epigraph ref\|sa3\|106}} and is crafty and conniving.{{book ref\|sa4\|i\|2}} She was a primary instigator of the [[False Desolation]], leading to her imprisonment by the [[Knights Radiant]],{{epigraph ref\|sa3\|80}}{{book ref\|sa4\|73}} which put the vast majority of [[singer]]s into slaveform,{{book ref\|sa3\|17}} and affected all spren on [[Roshar]].{{book ref\|sa4\|49}}{{epigraph ref\|sa4\|97}} She is unique among the Unmade for having two hyphens in her name, whereas others only have one or zero. ==Mythology and Lore== {{image\|Ba-Ado-Mishram by Anya.jpg\|side=left\|width=300px}} {{quote \|There is very little information about Ba-Ado-Mishram in more modern times. I can only assume she, unlike many of them, returned to Damnation or was destroyed during Aharietiam. They had a theory that an Unmade could be captured like regular spren, but it would require a special prison--likely a [[perfect gemstone]]--and [[Melishi]],{{epigraph ref\|sa3\|79}} the [[Bondsmith]] of that generation.{{epigraph ref\|sa2\|58}}{{epigraph ref\|sa3\|67}} So, the Radiants formed a strike team to imprison Ba-Ado-Mishram. Melishi was confident in the plan, but other Radiants were uncertain on the effects this would have on the singers. Still, they hoped this would finally lead to the end of the war with the singers, once and for all.{{epigraph ref\|sa3\|82}} ~~Several~~The [[Herald]]s~~, including~~ [[Nale]] and [[Kalak]], and possibly others, were present at Ba-Ado-Mishram's binding, though their role there is unknown.{{book ref\|sa4\|24}}{{epigraph ref\|sa4\|94}} Ultimately, the strike team was successful and Ba-Ado-Mishram was captured.{{book ref\|sa4\|49}}{{book ref\|sa4\|84}}{{epigraph ref\|sa4\|97}} ===Effects of the Binding=== }} In 1175, during the [[True Desolation]], the location of Ba-Ado-Mishram's gemstone prison remained unknown, but the [[Ghostbloods]] sought it. [[Ialai Sadeas]]'s journal which [[Shallan]] acquired at Ialai's death described the Ghostbloods being "obsessed" with Ba-Ado-Mishram. Shallan suspected [[Mraize]] thought that Ba-Ado-Mishram would be in [[Urithiru]], but Shallan realized this must have been wrong, because if that was true, [[Re-Shephir]] would have freed Mishram. Shallan wondered that since Mraize wished to move [[Stormlight]] off Roshar that perhaps Ba-Ado-Mishram could be used for this purpose.{{book ref\|sa4\|24}} Kalak believed this was why the Ghostbloods hunted him. Shallan confronted Mraize using her [[seon]] [[Ala]], and demanded to know what the Ghostbloods' plan was with a spren which could bind minds of an entire people. Mraize didn't respond, and Shallan declared that she would find Ba-Ado-Mishram's gemstone before they would.{{book ref\|sa4\|115}} }} The Herald Kalak is the only known individual to refer to Ba-Ado-Mishram as simply "Mishram." This is ~~one of~~the only ~~two instances~~instance of an Unmade's name being shortened to just one part of their hyphenated name.{{epigraph ref\|sa4\|97}} It's unclear why this is, or if Kalak had familiarity with Ba-Ado-Mishram in the past. In Kalak's journal, he appears to have some caring for Ba-Ado-Mishram's own well-being, and urges someone to find and free her, both for her sake and Roshar's. ===Others=== {{complete\|[[User:Chaos2651\|Chaos2651]] ([[User talk:Chaos2651\|talk]]) 19:32, 17 November 2020 (UTC)}} {{Stormlight}} [[es:Ba-Ado-Mishram]]
