“Do you think me pretty, or do you think me a monster? ”
—Dreaming-though-Awake[1]
Dreaming-though-Awake is a mistspren on Roshar bonded to Arshqqam.[2]
Appearance and Personality
In Shadesmar, Dreaming-though-Awake chooses to manifest as a female made entirely of mist. Her face appears as a porcelain mask that always reflects light and almost seems to be crystal from some perspectives; the lips remain stationary when she speaks. She wears a vest, trousers, and gloves.[1]
Attributes and Abilities
Dreaming-though-Awake can speak multiple Rosharan languages and serves as a translator between Arshqqam and the Alethi. It is unclear if this is because she has learned the languages or if this is an aspect of her nature.[3]
By bonding Arshqqam, Dreaming-though-Awake and the Tashikki can use Stormlight to access the surges of the Order of Truthwatchers, Illumination and Progression.[4]
