== History ==
=== Creation ===
Nightblood was created by Shashara and Vasher during the Manywar. There were two primary objectives in his creation. Several of the [[Five Scholars]] had previously traveled to post-[[Recreance]] Roshar,{{qa ref|1149|9|Did Vasher visit Roshar before or after the Recreance?|date=16 February 2016}} where they had encountered men wielding Shardblades. Vasher and Vivenna were hoping to create an analogous weapon using [[Breath]],{{qa ref|1168|38|For now, we know that Vasher got tired of "sucking souls" and, through previous study with a group of scholars, knew how easy it was to get Investiture on Roshar|date=22 November 2016}} Investiture from the Shard [[Endowment]].{{cite}} The other objective was to create a Type IV Biochromatic Entity; something self-aware and intelligent that has never been human. Shashara also wished to prove herself a more skilled Awakener than [[Yesteel]], who had recently developed [[ichor-alcohol]].{{book ref|wb|51}} She devised the specific process through study and experimentation. Creating Nightblood required one thousand Breaths that were forged into the sword. Shashara and Vasher spent a good deal of time in advance considering what Command to give Nightblood, eventually settling on the phrase, "Destroy Evil," which would form the basis of Nightblood's personality.
