Dysian Aimians (who call themselves the Sleepless[1]) can do even more extreme modifications because their body is made up of many cremling-like creatures called hordelings that they breed to perform whatever function that they need. These hordelings can separate from the main body to act as remote agents and can also be used as backup minds to store memories.[2] At least one Dysian Amian may have fought in the Aharietiam, as Dalinar Kholin notices a heap of burned corpses of some variety of strange cremlings. For which side they may have fought, or if this part of the vision depicts the remains of a Sleepless, is, however, unknown at this time.
Hoid delivers a monologue to a hordeling while waiting for Jasnah to Elsecall after her time in Shadesmar. [3][4] In Kholinar, Kaladin notices a strange cremling on the table, during a storm; it is very possible for it to have been a remote agent of the Dysians. {{book ref|sa3|77
Aside from being immortal, both Aimian races have the ability to magically modify their bodies, but to different extents.
