Difference between revisions of "Re-Shephir"

'''Re-Shephir''' is a [[Roshar]]an [[Unmade]], one of nine [[Splinter]]s of [[Odium]].{{epigraphwob ref|sa3|1091672}} She is commonly referred to by the title of the '''Midnight Mother''' for her ability to create monsters.{{epigraph ref|sa1|58}}

Re-Shephir is capable of shapeshifting, including altering her size. She appears to have very little limitations on what form she takes and is unburdened by the biology of the entities she copies, being able squeeze through tiny gaps that no human could fit through even in a humanoid form. This being said, Re-Shephir retains her characteristic uniform, oily-black colourcolor regardless of her current shape.{{book ref|sa3|25}}{{book ref|sa3|29}} She seems unable to mimic natural sounds; the only noises she's heard making are alien-sounding screeches when she feels threatened.{{book ref|sa3|30}}

She can create entities called [[Midnight Essence]] that look much like her and may be why she is nicknamed the Midnight Mother. The Midnight Essence can take various forms, both humanoid and beastly, but don't appear to share their mother's shapeshifting abilities. Apart from the colourcolor and texture, Re-Shephir can make Midnight Essence resemble specific people she has seen - at least in appearance, as there is no indication that she can replicate voices or behaviourbehavior.{{book ref|sa3|29}} It's unclear whether Re-Shephir can command the Midnight Essence directly; however, her creations are universally hostile to humans and devoted to defending her, and can operate autonomously.{{book ref|sa3|29}}{{book ref|sa1|19}}
