Spren are far more extensive and numerous than the closest comparable entities, [[seon]]s and [[skaze]], Splinters of [[Devotion]] and [[Dominion]] respectively. This is one of the reasons Roshar does not have the same problem with travelling to the Cognitive Realm as [[Sel]] -- even though Honor is [[Splintering|Splintered]] just like the other two Shards, on Roshar, spren act as a "release valve" for the uncontrolled power of Honor.{{wob ref|4129}}
== Characteristics ==
Listeners can bond stormspren to attain [[stormform]], granting them the ability to shoot red lightning.{{book ref|sa2|i|11}} They also cause the listener to be more callous and feel superior to others, and give access to Odium's Rhythms.{{book ref|sa2|i|8}}

==== Windspren ====
There has also been some speculation regarding whether an [[Unmade]] can form a Bondsmith bond. The most common topic of such speculation is [[Sja-Anat]], who has previously shown interest in breaking ties with Odium.
▲A large spren on glowing legs is seen by Kaladin and Shallan during a Highstorm {{book ref|sa2|74}}. Dalinar also saw one while out in a Highstorm in a flashback {{book ref|sa3|19}}. Brandon Sanderson has confirmed that they were spren.{{wob ref|10906}} Many fans call them "Stormstriders" but almost nothing is known about them.
