'''Ulim''' is a [[Voidspren]] who worked with [[Venli]] to bring about the [[Everstorm]] and the [[True Desolation]]. Among the [[Fused]] he is known as the '''Envoy''' for his role in ushering their Return.{{book ref|sa3|i|6}}
== Appearance and Personality ==
Ulim appears in a red, human form. Venli describes his eyes as odd, suggesting a Shin ethnicity, or possibly non-[[Roshar]]an
Ulim often speaks with an arrogant, spiteful attitude marked by human mannerisms, as noted by [[Hariel]].{{book ref|sa3|i|6}} He has little compassion or respect for the [[listener]]s, despite having worked closely with Venli for many years. He addresses them as children, mocks their war against the [[Alethi]], and treats Venli's mourning over the loss of Eshonai with derision.{{book ref|sa3|i|3}} In contrast, Ulim speaks with deference when in the presence of the Fused, for whom he has great fear and respect.{{book ref|sa3|i|3}}{{book ref|sa3|i|6}}
== History ==

Ulim had a history with the [[Herald]] [[Nale]], although they were not friends. Ulim appeared to be somewhat fearful of Nale, to the point that he stopped talking when Nale told him to quiet.{{book ref|sa4|77}}
Ulim somehow managed to escape from [[Braize]] to [[Roshar]].

▲Ulim somehow managed to escape from [[Braize]] to [[Roshar]]. He made contact with Venli several years ago and convinced her that they should work together to bring about the return of her people's gods.{{book ref|sa3|i|6}} The pair collaborated secretly to capture [[stormspren]] and make the discovery of [[stormform]]. Though Venli took credit for the research, Ulim was primarily primarily responsible for the work performed.{{book ref|sa3|i|7}}
After the summoning of the Everstorm, Ulim revealed himself to the surviving listeners and became somewhat of a leader to them. He directed Venli and others to search in the chasms for Eshonai's body in order to claim her [[Shardblade]] and [[Shardplate]] before pressing them to meet up with the Fused.{{book ref|sa3|i|3}} He instructed Venli, [[Demid]], and seven other listeners on how to prepare themselves to be taken by the souls of the Fused at the coming of an Everstorm.{{book ref|sa3|i|6}}
