Honorspren are a subset of spren.
They are Splinters[1], presumably (at least mostly) of Honor. They are part of the magic of the Windrunners, an Order of the Knights Radiant.
Syl says she is an honorspren.[2]
“I bind things, Kaladin. ... I am honorspren. Spirit of oaths. Of promises. And of nobility.”
At the time of The Way of Kings Syl is the only known honorspren, though there are more spren around.
While Syl starts as a Windspren, not all Windspren become honorspren. Windspren and Syl are kind of cousins.[4] She becomes sentient by bonding with Kaladin. This bond gains her the ability to think in the Physical Realm and in return Kaladin gets something from this bond, too.[2]
“'I'm willing to stop it, if you want,' she said. 'But I would go back to being as I was before. That scares me. Floating on the wind, never remembering anything for longer than a few minutes. It's because of this tie between us that I can think again, that I can remember what and who I am. If we end it, I lose that.' ...
'If I'm not cursed,' Kaladin said softly, 'then why do I live when others die?'
'Because of us,' Syl said. 'This bond. It makes you stronger, Kaladin.'”
—Syl explains to Kaladin about their bond[5]
