The '''Unmade''' are a group of nine{{book ref|sa3|1}} ancient and twisted [[spren]]{{book ref|sa3|62}} on [[Roshar]] comprised of [[Splinter]]s of [[Odium]].{{wob ref|1672}} They are regarded as minions of Odium,{{book ref|sa3|1}} but not all of them continue to do his bidding.{{book ref|sa4|i|2}}{{book ref|sa4|112}} While they are traditionally depicted as personifications of destruction or forces, some of them are cognizant individuals.{{epigraph ref|sa1|45}}{{epigraph ref|sa3|91}} Each Unmade is endowed with vast and terrible powers,{{epigraph ref|sa3|89}} although the intelligence of the Unmade
[[Ba-Ado-Mishram]], the most intelligent of the Unmade, has three parts in her compound name,{{book ref|sa4|interlude|2}} while [[Re-Shephir]], [[Sja-anat]], and [[Yelig-nar]] have two parts in a compound name and have displayed a level of awareness.{{epigraph ref|sa1|45}}{{book ref|sa4|interlude|2}}{{book ref|sa3|31}} Unmade such as [[Nergaoul]] and [[Ashertmarn]], have shown themselves to be mere creatures of instinct.{{epigraph ref|sa3|106}}{{book ref|sa3|120}}
== Characteristics ==
Some are practically mindless, more like emotion spren, others are intelligent, crafty and conniving.{{epigraph ref|sa3|81}}{{book ref|sa4|i|2}}
Unmade are [[Investiture|Invested]] enough that they have been able to push through [[Urithiru]]'s [[suppression fabrial|suppression]] effect, depending on the circumstances.{{book ref|sa4|14}}{{book ref|sa4|40}}{{book ref|sa4|49}}
Buildings under the influence of an Unmade cannot be drawn by [[Order of Lightweavers|Lightweavers]].{{book ref|sa3|63}}{{book ref|sa3|30}}
=== Capturing ===
Prior to the [[Day of Recreance|Recreance]], a [[Order of Lightweavers|Lightweaver]] managed to trap [[Re-Shephir]], an act previously thought impossible.{{book ref|sa3|30}} Re-Shephir then escaped her imprisonment by unknown means centuries before the [[True Desolation]]. After the [[Alethi]] arrived at [[Urithiru]], she once again encountered a Lightweaver, [[Shallan Davar]]. Sensing the similarities between Shallan's powers and those of the Lightweaver who had trapped her in the past, Re-Shephir fled rather than risk being imprisoned again.{{book ref|sa3|30}}
The [[Urithiru gem archive]] includes a theory that [[Melishi]], a [[Order of Bondsmiths|Bondsmith]], would be required to trap [[Ba-Ado-Mishram]] in a special prison.{{epigraph ref|sa3|79}} A [[Knights Radiant]] strike team was successful in capturing Ba-Ado-Mishram in a gemstone at the end of the [[False Desolation]], which cut off her [[Connection]] to the [[singers]].{{book ref|sa3|17}}{{epigraph ref|sa3|80}}{{book ref|sa4|73}} Most of the details of this capture are unknown, other than several Heralds, including [[Nale]] and [[Kalak]], being present.{{book ref|sa4|24}}{{epigraph ref|sa4|94}}
During the [[Battle of Thaylen Field]], [[Dalinar Kholin]] used his intimate knowledge about the Thrill's nature, and the method of capturing spren through coaxing them into a [[polestone|gemstone]], to capture [[Nergaoul]] in the [[King's Drop]].{{book ref|sa3|121}}{{book ref|sa3|120}} It is unclear whether or not he utilized the [[Order of Bondsmiths|Bondsmith]] [[Surgebinding#Adhesion|Surge of Adhesion]] to aid with his [[Connection]] to the Thrill and it is also unknown if this is the same method that the ancient Radiants used.
== History ==
=== During the Desolations ===
The origin of the Unmade is uncertain, but they are believed to have come into existence before the start of human civilization on Roshar.{{book ref|sa3|77}} They have been implied to have once been something else before being made into the Unmade,{{book ref|sa3|84}}{{book ref|sa3|32}} but for now there is no indication what they once were. They were active in the Desolations, aiding Odium's troops in the conflict with their various skills.{{book ref|sa3|77}} Urithiru was equipped with some sort of protection against the Unmade.{{epigraph ref|sa3|73}} Between Desolations, the Unmade lose their bond to Odium.{{book ref|sa4|i|2}} Since [[Aharietiam]], they have remained subtly active on Roshar, probably operating with diminished capacity.
=== True Desolation ===
About five generations before [[Lunamor]]'s time, his great-great-great-grandfather encountered one of the Unmade in the Horneater Peaks
The arrival of the [[Everstorm]] in [[Shadesmar]] revitalized the Unmade.{{book ref|sa4|i|2}} As the [[True Desolation]] continued and the [[Fused]] returned, the Unmade's influence increased. The death rattles allowed by the presence of [[Moelach]] have been noted in [[Kharbranth]] and the [[Horneater Peaks]]{{book ref|sa1|71}}{{epigraph ref|sa3|103}}{{book ref|sa3|107}} . [[Re-Shephir]] was discovered to be hiding in the core of [[Urithiru]] by the [[Alethi]]{{book ref|sa3|29}} and was driven out by [[Shallan Davar]].{{book ref|sa3|30}} In the besieged city of [[Kholinar]], [[Ashertmarn]]'s influence disrupted the leadership in the city{{book ref|sa3|78}} while [[Sja-anat]] corrupted the [[Oathgate]] spren, turning it into a trap for [[Elhokar]]'s rescue party.{{book ref|sa3|84}} Queen [[Aesudan Kholin]] consumed a gemstone and worked with [[Yelig-nar]], but was eventually consumed by it.{{book ref|sa3|118}} In the [[Battle of Thaylen Field]], Yelig-nar joined with [[Meridas Amaram]] for the fighting{{book ref|sa3|118}} and [[Nergaoul]]'s influence helped [[Voidspren]] bond with [[Torol Sadeas|Sadeas]]'s soliders, turning them into warriors for Odium. [[Kaladin]] and his men defeated Yelig-nar, while [[Dalinar Kholin]] successfully managed to capture Nergaoul in a [[King's Drop|perfect gem]]. [[Navani]] has been researching the Unmade,{{book ref|sa3|39}} but little factual information was found on them aside from in [[Hessi]]'s ''[[Mythica]]''.{{book ref|sa3|77}}{{book ref|sa3|72}}
=== After the Battle of Thaylen Field ===
=== Chemoarish ===
Little is known of the Unmade '''[[Chemoarish]]'''. By the modern [[Era of Solitude]], she is known as the '''Dustmother''' and often is conflated with the [[Nightwatcher]].{{epigraph ref|sa3|108}} There is a variety of lore associated with her, but all of it is currently unknown. In [[Bavland]], her name is invoked as a curse.{{book ref|sa1|i|3}}
From the length of her name, it seems unlikely that she is among the more intelligent of the Unmade.
=== Dai-Gonarthis ===
|Tanatesach 1173, 28 seconds pre-death. A darkeyed female street juggler. Note similarity to sample 1172-89.{{epigraph ref|sa1|67}}

'''[[Yelig-nar]]''', also known as Blightwind,{{epigraph ref|sa1|45}} differs from the other Unmade. Instead of having a specific physical appearance, he is capable of joining with humans or singers who swallow his gemstone, granting them
