History
Herald of the Almighty
Ishar's history prior to becoming a Herald is unknown. After humanity began to lose its fight against Odium and his immortal Fused, Ishar and nine companions asked Honor for the ability to seal the Voidbringers on Braize. Honor agreed, the Oathpact was founded, and Ishar and his nine companions became Heralds of the Almighty and were given their Honorblades. Ishar was tortured with the rest of the Heralds between every Desolation until one of them broke. When that happened, Jezrien and the other Heralds returned to Roshar to guide humanity in the fight against the Voidbringers.

Post-Aharietiam
“ I... have seen Ishar. He curses me at night, even as he names himself a god. He seeks death. His own. Perhaps that of every man. ”
— Stormfather's mention of Ishar to Dalinar [7]
Ishar's activities after Aharietiam are largely unknown. In the present day, however, he calls himself Tezim, and leads the Tukari people as their god-priest. He is currently waging war against the Emuli people for unknown reasons.
Nale has been in regular communication with Ishar in regards to current events.[8] It was at Ishar's behest that Nale began murdering surgebinders, believing this to be the only way to prevent a new desolation. Once the Everstorm arrived, Nale again sought out Ishar, after which he decided to abandon Honor and fight for the Parsh instead.[9]
Although Nale and Ash both believe that Ishar is the only Herald to have survived the Desolations with his mind intact, the Stormfather has said that Ishar is also insane, and seeks his own death and that of every man.
