'''Odium''' is a [[Shard]] of [[Adonalsium]] currently held by [[Taravangian]]{{book ref|sa4|114}} and previously held by [[Rayse]].{{wob ref|7266}} Unlike most other Shards, which typically pick a single world and settle there, Odium has been traveling freely throughout the [[cosmere]] for a long time, deliberately refusing to [[Invest]] himself anywhere. He is responsible for the deaths of at least four Shards -- [[Devotion]], [[Dominion]], [[Ambition]] and [[Honor]].{{au ref|Roshar}} In the present, he's confined to the planet [[Braize]], but his influence can be felt on the entire [[Rosharan system]].{{wob ref|9847}} Odium’s [[Investiture]] is typically associated with “burning” gold or violet-black colors,{{book ref|sa3|57}} though it is also often red, the color that signifies corrupted Investiture.{{wob ref|13074}} His overall motif is red-gold, although gold is his "real" color.{{wob ref|13074}}
== Intent ==
By reading the Diagram, Taravangian eventually managed to negotiate with Odium, though his initial offering of sparing anyone Taravangian ruled was discarded, with Odium pointing out that Taravangian sought to become the king of the whole of Roshar. Eventually, the two settled on sparing every citizen of Kharbranth and their spouses.{{book ref|sa3|122}}
