Ua’pam, a Peakspren and companion to Zu, appears among Adolin’s party as they travel by barge, helping arrange a place for them to camp. Manifesting leaves him visibly exhausted, his shoulders slumping as though the effort has settled into his bones. He studies Veil with molten light pouring through the cracks in his stony skin, an image that captures both his strange nature and his quiet attentiveness.

Description

Ua’pam has generally humanlike features, but his skin resembles cracked rock, glowing from within as molten light shines through its fissures. He wears fur-lined clothing, which gives his stony form a rough, practical outline. His posture can sag with exhaustion, and he rubs his knuckles together with a sound like grinding stone. A slow, weighty presence surrounds him, as elemental and unhurried as a mountain.
