The Stormfather is a powerful spren on Roshar. He is the personification of storms and the divine. Being strung up in a highstorm is referred to as being judged by the Stormfather.[1] The Stormfather is a cognitive shadow of the Almighty[2]; in his own words, "the memory men create for him, now that he is gone"[3] He was the carrier of Dalinar's visions. He controls the highstorms, and can summon them to a location.[4] In Vorinism, he is identified with the Herald Jezerezeh; however, he has stated that he is not a Herald.[4] He was not always present within the highstorms.[5] He considers the honorspren to be his children.[4] At least one of the Bondsmiths bonded him as their spren; in Words of Radiance, this is Dalinar Kholin.[3]
