Dai-gonarthis is believed to be one of the Unmade,[1] an ancient and terrible spren of Odium.[2] He also seems to be known as the Black Fisher.[3]
Little is known of Dai-gonarthis, even its gender is uncertain. Hessi posits in Mythica that it may have been involved in the scouring of Aimia somehow, although the specifics are uncertain.[1] She also expresses uncertainty that Dai-gonarthis is a member of the Unmade at all. However, it does seem likely that Dai-gonarthis is truly the final Unmade though, as in one of the Death Rattles collected by King Taravangian's Silent Gatherers, a dying woman mentions the name Dai-gonarthis.[3] During one of his conversations with Dalinar Kholin, the mad Jezrien, in the guise of Ahu, also references the Black Fisher, so there is likely some importance to Dai-gonarthis.[4]
