Singers communicate through special Rhythms--hence them being called singers. Singers can bond various [[spren]] which change their forms.
 
== New Parshmen ==
The Parshmen were transformed, or awakened when the first ever storm[[Everstorm]] came. These new Parshmen exemplified traits whereof the culture in which they had lived all their lives. The Azish Parshmen submitted a complaint to the government, while Thaylean Parsh stole ships and sailed away. These Parshmen aren't fully under Odium's control as they can still hear the old rhythms, and are reluctant to follow his every word. This happened when Odium attacked Thaylean city, and the awakened Parshmen didn't want to fight. These Parshmen can remember their lives before the were healed. LikeFor example, Nah, a singer who both Kaladin and Moash meet, remembers his wife taken from him, and his anger at the event. It could be possible for the Parshmen to switch sides, though it is unlikely since they have been enslaved for thousands of years.
 
== Forms ==
 
The [[listener]]s recounted many common forms in the [[Song of Listing]], which they only had access to only a small subset of. They also have songs which sung of dangerous forms of power in the [[Song of Secrets]] and the [[Song of Winds]].
 
There is also slaveform, which was the lack of any form, which most singers were locked into for centuries, until the [[Everstorm]] arrived and the [[True Desolation]] began. ▼
