During the [[Heraldic Epochs]], honorspren were created by [[Honor]].{{book ref|sa3|108}} At some point, inspired by the [[Herald]]s and their [[Honorblade]]s, the honorspren, along with nine other types of sapient spren, began forming [[Nahel Bondbond]]s with humans, giving rise to the [[Order of Windrunners]].{{book ref|sa2|87}} Back then, they had a reputation for being discerning in their choice of who to bond with, more so than many other spren.{{book ref|sa1|60}}
 
As his death approached, Honor passed the responsibility of creating honorspren to the [[Stormfather]]. The great spren made a few of them, including [[Sylphrena]], yet soon the [[Recreance]] arrived and the vast majority of honorspren became [[deadeye]]s. Syl was the only survivor among the Stormfather's children, as she was slumbering at the time. Her fate wasn't known, though, and Stormfather didn't create any new honorspren for centuries. Eventually, he made ten. Those ten created more honorspren, with their children creating more and so on.{{book ref|sa3|108}}
 
== Abilities ==
Honorspren have the ability to sense an upcoming [[highstorm]] days before it arrives.{{book ref|sa3|20}} This is likely related to their origins as Stormfather's children. In the [[Physical Realm]], they can use [[Adhesion]] to stick small, light objects together{{book ref|sa3|77}}, and give pinches of energy or move small objects.{{book ref|sa1|6}} They can also shape-shift while in there, and choose who can and cannot see and hear them, although they cannot hide from their bonded Surgebinder or, an [[Unkalaki]] ''alaii'iku''.,{{book ref|sa1|21}} or [[Lift]].{{book ref|sa4|i|1}}
 
They can form a [[Nahel Bondbond]] with humans, turning them into [[Surgebinder]]s with the powers of Adhesion and [[Gravitation]]. In return, they gain the ability to think and act like their Shadesmar selves in the physical realm.{{book ref|sa1|57}} Among the honorspren, the bond is considered extremely intimate, as it involves the mixing of souls.{{book ref|sa3|108}}
