"Godspren" is a non-canonical term for a theoretical group of spren that embody the cognitive representation of gods on Roshar.

The Stormfather would fall into this category of spren, as he is confirmed to be the people of Roshar's cognitive representation of The Almighty (i.e. Honor). There would theoretically be multiple godspren: at least one for each god worshipped on Roshar.

The Nightwatcher has (among many other things) been hypothesized to be the godspren of Cultivation, though that is quite speculative at this point.

It has also been theorized that each Knight Radiant in the Order of Bondsmiths shares a Nahel bond with a specific godspren. Dalinar Kholin's bond with the Stormfather would be one such example of this.

It is still unclear whether or not godspren are a real category of spren, and, even if they are, whether they will be called as such in the eventual canon.
