== Attributes and Abilities ==
In the [[Cognitive Realm]], Wyndle is a proficient gardener of chairs.,{{book ref|sa2.5|1}} which has made him somewhat famous.{{book ref|sa4|19}} His [[Physical Realm]] form is, like other Nahel spren, capable of exerting a small amount of force in the Physical. Uniquely, Lift is capable of interacting with him in the Physical Realm, despite him not having enough substance there for such a thing to be possible under typical circumstances. Wyndle posits that this is because she is partially in the Cognitive Realm. She uses this ability to do things such as climb walls by having him form a ladder for her.{{book ref|sa2|i|9}}

== History ==
{{image|Lift by Jessica Liu.jpg|side=left|width=250px|Runing from [[Nale]] with [[Lift]]}}
=== Background ===
Wyndle was a gardener. He collected souls of chairs and grew them into crystals.{{citebook ref|Edgedancer|1}}
 
He was asked by the [[Ring]] to bond with Lift, a decision Wyndle doesn't seem to like or understand.{{book ref|Edgedancer|1}}
 
=== Following Darkness to Yeddaw ===
{{image|Yeddaw.png|side=right|width=200px|Travelling to [[Yeddaw]]}}
Wyndle seemed to be happy at the Palace while they were guests of honor of the new Prime Aqasix, Gawx. Regardless, he followed Lift to [[Yeddaw]], without understanding her plans. As they went, he figured out they were following [[Nale]], who Lift called Darkness.{{book ref|Edgedancer|1}}

Upon their arrival, Lift uses Wyndle to climb into places and spy on people. She created a diversion and later followed the guard capitan who surely would have made a report on her. As expected Nale arrived and Wyndle finds out from Lift that his plan is to kill [[Knights Radiant|Radiants]].{{book ref|Edgedancer|7}}
After that, they returned to Azir to prepare for what was coming next.{{book ref|Edgedancer|20}} Lift became a “person of trust” to the Prime, who listened and trusted her advice.{{book ref|sa3|65}}
 
=== Roshar's Coalition and the Battle of Thaylen Field ===
Wyndle and Lift went to [[Urithiru]] to join with [[Dalinar]].
Wyndle and Lift went to [[Urithiru]] to join with Dalinar. Though the Azish she came with left before [[Battle of Thaylen Field|the battle]], she stayed to help. Their task from Dalinar was to take a big ruby from a Fused with similar powers to an Edgedancer. Wyndle was tasked with following the Fused who moved faster than Lift. He performed this successfully, but Lift was hit by the rock monster. Wyndle suggested that she summon him as a Shardblade to protect her. Lift summoned him as a rod but was saved by Szeth.{{book ref|sa3|117}} Though Lift didn’t use Wyndle to obtain the ruby, they completed the task and gave the rock to Dalinar, which was key to their victory.{{book ref|sa3|120}}

Wyndle and Lift stayed at Urithiru to help the coalition during the year succeeding the engagement in Thaylen Field. Around a dozen or so additional Edgedancers were bonded during this time, and along with Lift and Wyndle, they went to various battlefields to help heal people.{{book ref|sa4|3}} Lift volunteered for an envoy to the [[honorspren]] stronghold of [[Lasting Integrity]], but Dalinar denied her request.{{book ref|sa4|19}}
 
Just before the Fused invasion of Urithiru, Wyndle accompanied Lift as she "stole" a basket of fruit from [[Gift]]. He prodded her, and she admitted both that Gift is leaving the food out for her and that her gift was from Cultivation and not the Nightwatcher. Shortly after, they both begin to feel the effects of the [[suppression fabrial]] being turned on the Radiants. They headed outside and witnessed [[Gereh]]'s and [[Mraize]]'s [[Aviar]] battling in the sky. Wyndle helped Lift climb a wall, but was unable to form a Shardrod for her. Regardless, Lift was able to rescue Gereh's Aviar.{{book ref|sa4|i|5}} Shortly afterward, the pair were found by Mraize,{{book ref|sa4|i|5}} who put them in a cage and sold them to the Fused.{{book ref|sa4|60}} Wyndle left to try to find help, but he did not return until the tower was restored.{{book ref|sa4|85}}{{book ref|sa4|116}}
 
== Relationships ==
 
== Trivia ==
* There are some spren that choose on their Radiant on their own, while some other spren have the decision made by a committee. Wyndle, Lift's spren, was placed with Lift by a committee. The difference stems from cultural differences among different types of [[Spren#True_Spren|true spren]]. Some such cultures are more free-spirited, others more organized.{{wob ref|1384}}
 
* [[Lifespren]] will pop up more commonly around Wyndle than they will around [[Sylphrena]].{{wob ref|7888}} They may be related to him in a way similar to Syl's relationship to [[windspren]].
