Dalinar considered this clothing strange, which may indicate that it was from [[Yolen]]—or it may simply be a reflection of how style had changed since Tanavast recorded the visions.{{book ref\|sa1\|75}} Little is known about Tanavast as a person, but the people who met him have an excellent opinion of him. He seems to be the only original Vessel with whom [[Hoid]] has a good relationship, and is, aside from [[Ati]], the only one Hoid ever praises, calling him a decent person.{{book ref\|sa2\|epilogue}} The [[Stormfather]] insists that Tanavast did love mankind, even dying to defend them.{{book ref\|sa3\|111}} Tanavast himself seems to have been highly dedicated to his role as a deity and protective of humanity, even apologizing in visions for getting himself killed.{{book ref\|sa1\|75}} == Attributes and Abilities == As a Vessel, Tanavast originally held as much power as his peers.{{wob ref\|1081}} At some point, however, he was weakened enough that, even with [[Cultivation]]'s assistance, [[Odium]] was able to kill him.{{wob ref\|2729}} Like other ~~Vessels~~[[Vessel]]s, he had Shardic future sight, though it was not as strong as that of [[Cultivation]].{{book ref\|sa1\|75}} {{image\|~~The Roshards~~Tanavast by ~~jurassicpencil~~Diego López.jpg\|side=right\|width=200px}}▼ == History == === Before the Shattering === ▲{{image\|The Roshards by jurassicpencil.jpg\|side=right\|width=200px}} Tanavast was born and spent his early life on Yolen over ten-thousand years before the death of the [[Cinder King]].{{book ref\|tsm\|11}}{{wob ref\|7939}}{{wob ref\|4736}} He was a regular mortal before he Ascended.{{wob ref\|14172}} ~~=== On Yolen ===~~ At some point in the past, likely prior to the [[Shattering]], Tanavast met [[Hoid]], and left a good impression on him.{{book ref\|sa2\|epilogue}} Hoid mentioned that he regretted Tanavast's death, but would allow it to happen again if it could help him achieve his goal.▼ Tanavast was one of the sixteen people who shattered [[Adonalsium]], after which he Ascended as the Shard of Honor.{{msh ref\|3\|2}}{{wob ref\|4229}}▼ ~~=== Early Roshar ===~~ After the Shattering, Tanavast and his lover, [[Koravellium Avast\|Cultivation's Vessel]],{{wob ref\|2786}} moved to [[Roshar]],{{wob ref\|1169}} and both Shards Invested equally in the planet.{{wob ref\|12038}} ▲At some point in the past, likely prior to the [[Shattering]], Tanavast met [[Hoid]], and left a good impression on him.{{book ref\|sa2\|epilogue}} ~~Hoid mentioned that he regretted Tanavast's death, but would allow it to happen again if it could help him achieve his goal.~~ To counter the [[Fused]], he formed the [[Oathpact]] with the ten [[Herald]]s, which bound the Fused to [[Braize]] after death. The [[Oathpact]] is also part of what keeps [[Odium]] captive on [[Braize]] where he could not splinter other [[Shard]]s.{{epigraph ref\|sa2\|70}}{{wob ref\|6273}}{{expand\|whole section}} === ~~Silver~~The ~~Kingdoms Epoch~~Shattering === ▲Tanavast was one of the ~~sixteen~~seventeen people who shattered [[Adonalsium]], after which he Ascended as the Shard of Honor.{{msh ref\|3\|2}}{{wob ref\|4229}} After the Shattering, Tanavast and his lover, [[Koravellium Avast]],{{wob ref\|2786}} moved to [[Roshar]],{{wob ref\|1169}} and both Shards Invested equally in the planet.{{wob ref\|12038}} Sometime before the [[Day of Recreance]], he passed responsibility for creating new [[honorspren]] to the [[Stormfather]]. When the last generation of [[Knights Radiant]] discovered that humans were the invaders on Roshar, he did not support them as he had past Radiants, but instead raved about how they would destroy the world.{{book ref\|ob\|113}} Sometime after the Recreance, he recorded several visions for the Stormfather to show to [[Bondsmith]] candidates,{{book ref\|ob\|28}} and was later killed by Odium when Honor was Splintered.{{book ref\|sa1\|75}}{{wob ref\|9810}} {{for\|Honor#History\|subsequent events}} ~~=== Trivia ===~~ ~~Tanavast was romantically involved with the Vessel of [[Cultivation]], although it is unknown whether this relationship began before the Shattering of Adonalsium or afterward.~~ == Notes == {{Stormlight}} {{Cosmere}} [[es:Tanavast]]
