“ Re-Shephir, the Midnight Mother, giving birth to abominations with her essence so dark, so terrible, so consuming. She is here! She watches me die! ”
— Death vision, Epigraph 58[1]
Re-Shephir is an Unmade on Roshar, one of nine spren that exist as Splinters of Odium. She was discovered by Shallan Davar in Urithiru while Re-Shephir was imitating murders and violence that took place in the city, such as the murder of Sadeas[2]. Re-Shephir seeks to understand humans via imitating their actions, though she seems most drawn to violent actions such as murder or stabbings. To this end she would kill Vedekar Perel in the same way as Adolin murdered Sadeas[3] and injure Rock[4] in the same fashion as Veil injured Ur[5], a Horneater thug. It is possible, since she is the Midnight Mother and has "essence", that she is related to Midnight Essence.
During the confrontation in the library in Urithiru, Re-Shephir was protecting a pillar covered with cut gemstones. This would imply she was attempting to avoid being trapped like Nergaoul would be later on in Oathbringer. Re-Shephir was forced out after the confrontation, and fled the tower in fear. Her whereabouts are unknown.[6]
