Template:Spren info

The Stormfather is a powerful spren on Roshar. He is the personification of storms and the divine. In Vorinism, he is identified with the Herald Jezerezeh.

Nature

The Stormfather is a cognitive shadow of the Almighty[1]; in his own words, "the memory men create for him, now that he is gone."[2] Despite the Vorin view of him, he has stated that he is not a Herald.[3]He was not always present within the highstorms.[4]

Power

He was the carrier of Dalinar's visions. He controls the highstorms, and can summon them to a location.[3] At least one of the Bondsmiths bonded him as their spren; in Words of Radiance, this is Dalinar Kholin.[2]

Other

Being strung up in a highstorm is referred to as being judged by the Stormfather.[5]

He considers the honorspren to be his children.[3]
