m (Undo revision 115714 by Airsick Lowlander (talk) 1. This was never confirmed to be a resonance (if it was, source please!); 2. Ruin and Preservation could also create when separate people were holding the powers, so creation isn't necessarily a resonance)

'''Resonances''' are the interactions between [[Investiture]] which produce new, secondary effects from the combination of distinct powers.{{book ref|mb5|part=ars}}{{wob ref|3625}} Known [[Surgebinding]] resonances include [[Windrunner]]s' increased number of squires and [[Order of Lightweavers|Lightweavers']] mnemonic abilities.{{wob ref|915}}{{book ref|mb5|part=ars}}{{wob ref|4570}} [[Twinborn]] also have resonance abilities. However, when there are a large number of manifestations of [[Investiture]] within an individual, such as a full [[Allomancy|Mistborn]] or [[Feruchemist]], resonances are lost.{{wob ref|3959}}
|The effects here are more subtle than they are when mixing Surges on Roshar, but I am convinced that each unique combination also creates something distinctive. Not just two powers, you could say, but two powers … and an effect. This demands further study.

'''Resonances'''{{wob ref|4570}} are interactions that occur when an individual has access to more than one [[Investiture|Invested Art]] or [[Surge]]. The effects produced are not necessarily a combination of the two powers.{{wob ref|1296}}{{book ref|mb5|part=ars}} An individual with more than two powers such as a [[Mistborn]] or Full [[Feruchemist]] may lose this added effect.{{wob ref|3959}} This is because with so many powers the resonances are not as pronounced.{{wob ref|12608}}
 
== Surgebinding ==
All orders of [[Knights Radiant]] have access to two Surges{{book ref|sa3|part=ars}}, and therefore each order has resonances of their own.{{wob ref|1296}} Known [[Surgebinding]] resonances include:
* [[Windrunner]]s, such as [[Kaladin]] and [[Teft]], have an increased number of squires, more than any other order.{{wob ref|915}}
* [[Order of Lightweavers|Lightweavers]], such as [[Shallan]] are able to take a "Memory" of anything they see. They can recall this Memory at a later time with perfect accuracy. When they put it to paper as a painting or a sketch the Memory is completely removed from their mind.{{book ref|sa1|7}}{{wob ref|1424}} This is similar to the way an [[copper#Feruchemical Use|Archivist]] stores memories in their [[coppermind]]s. There is a limit to how many Memories a Lightweaver could store at the same time.{{wob ref|3244}} Memories are tied to [[Spiritual Realm|Spiritual]] [[Connection]].{{wob ref|3249}}
* [[Skybreakers]], such as [[Szeth]], while it is not known what resonance they do have, it has been confirmed that it does not involve telling guilty and innocent people apart.{{wob ref|8208}}
{{theory}}
* [[Edgedancers]], such as [[Lift]], are suspected of having the ability to communicate especially well as their resonance,{{book ref|edgedancer|6}}{{epigraph ref |sa2|46}} though Brandon has RAFO'd this.{{wob ref|1524}}
* [[Elsecaller]]s, such as [[Jasnah]], are suspected to have a sort of internal GPS as their resonance. This ability would allow them to determine their exact location as well as detecting in which direction the nearest settlement is.{{book ref|sa2|epilogue}} Brandon has not clearly confirmed or denied this.{{wob ref|6740}}
 
== Metallic Arts ==
[[Twinborn]], individuals who are both [[Ferring]]s and [[Misting]]s, also have resonances.{{book ref|mb5|part=ars}} examples include:
* Crashers, such as [[Wax]], a combination of a [[Coinshot]] and a [[Iron#Feruchemical Use|Skimmer]], have the ability to create a "[[steel]] bubble" around themselves which will deflect all metal that comes close to them.{{wob ref|1563}}{{book ref|mb4|1}} This ability requires practice and skill to use.{{book ref|mb5|9}}{{wob ref|1563}} The steel bubble only affects metals that are affected by [[iron]] and steel [[Allomancy]], therefore [[aluminum]] objects are unaffected by the bubble.{{book ref|mb4|6}}
 
== Trivia ==
* Resonances are a manifestation of the way [[Shard]]s combine.{{wob ref|8115}}
* While [[Hemalurgy]] will usually not create resonances, it is possible for it to happen.{{wob ref|12024}}
