The Stormfather is likely to be one of the oldest entities in the [[cosmere]], as the [[highstorm]]s he commands predate even the [[Shattering of Adonalsium]].{{wob ref|8624}} During the early millennia of his existence, he was not particularly cognizant or self-aware, but rather simply the uncaring storm.{{book ref|sa3|113}} Even back then, however, he was capable of bonding with humans.{{book ref|sa3|108}}
Shortly before the [[Recreance]], around 2000 years before the [[True Desolation]],{{book ref|sa3|56}} [[Honor]] altered the Stormfather in a frantic preparation for his own death.{{book ref|sa3|113}} Among other changes, he gave him the capacity to create [[honorspren]], as well as bestowed him with a set of visions to be sent to a person who would benefit from them, in the event of a new [[Desolation]].{{book ref|sa3|108}}{{book ref|sa2|89}} Back then, the Stormfather had only childlike intelligence, although it grew over time.{{book ref|sa3|113}} When the Recreance came, grieving for the lost honorspren -- which he believed included [[Sylphrena]] -- he refused to make new ones for centuries. Eventually, he created ten, who would then create children of their own, until the honorspren became a nation again.{{book ref|sa3|108}}

=== Visions and Bonds ===
At some point shortly before the [[True Desolation]], Syl was rediscovered, and the Stormfather arranged to have her delivered to one of the honorspren cities, ordering [[Notum]] to keep an eye on her.{{book ref|sa3|108}}{{book ref|sa3|110}} Against his wishes, she eventually escaped to form a [[Nahel bond]] after realizing that a new Desolation was coming.{{book ref|sa3|95}}
