Editing Order of Lightweavers

|books=[[The Stormlight Archive]], [[Mistborn Era 2]], [[Yumi and the Nightmare Painter]]

While each order of Radiants contains a variety of personalities within it, those who join the Lightweavers generally subscribe to a philosophy of speaking truths about themselves that they must admit in order to progress as people.{{wob ref|13777}} The order finds it important to be able to separate the real from the lie and use that to move forward. Lightweavers tend to be free spirits, and many among their order see the importance of entertainment, beauty, and art in a person’s life.{{wob ref|16463}} They generally ignore traditions and laws, and achieve their goals by whatever method works best for them.{{wob ref|16463}} The order strives to make sure that the world has something to live for. They tend to attract those who are interested in art, intrigue, secrets, and espionage.{{epigraph ref|sa2|49}}{{wob ref|13777}}

The Ideals of the Knights Radiant, also known as the [[Immortal Words]], are a set of rules by which the Radiants live. The First Ideal is shared by all of the orders, and is used as a motto for the Knights Radiant as a whole. Each of the orders then has an additional four Ideals that are unique to that order.{{book ref|sa1|59}} The Ideals of the Order of Lightweavers are very different from those of the other orders. Instead of swearing oaths centered around a specific theme, Lightweavers instead speak individual truths about themselves. Some have theorized that Lightweavers' progression is tied to truth like this because their actions frequently blur the line between truth and lies and they need to learn to distinguish the two.{{wob ref|16463}} It has also been posited that their more flexible Ideals are because they are closer to [[Cultivation]] than [[Honor]].{{wob ref|13777}}

Due to a combination of their two Surges, Lightweavers have new, secondary effects, known as the [[Resonance]].{{wob ref|3625}} Lightweavers may have multiple Resonances, with a prominent one being the eidetic memory.{{wob ref|6740}}{{book ref|sa2|49}} This includes the ability to deliberately memorize a scene, after which the Lightweaver can paint or draw that scene with remarkable accuracy.{{book ref|sa2|1}}{{wob ref|915}} The ability to memorize scenes and reproduce them accurately is similar to the ability of a [[Feruchemist]] to store memories in a [[copper]]mind,{{book ref|mb4|part=ars}} in that both talents involve the removal of a memory from the mind and its replacement in another medium -- in the Lightweaver's case, a sketch rather than a coppermind. There is an upper limit to how many memories can be stored at once, and a Lightweaver's mind can be put under tension from holding them for too long.{{wob ref|3244}}{{book ref|sa1|7}} Members of this order generally do not have these mnemonic abilities before bonding a Cryptic and they are not something that Cryptics are necessarily interested in when searching for a person to bond with.{{wob ref|1296}} Lightweavers can experience light and color differently and may be able to minutely alter the mood of others.{{wob ref|11531}} They also have an increased sense of direction and spatial awareness.{{book ref|sa4|6}}{{book ref|sa2|71}}{{book ref|sa4|93}}

Lightweavers can be introspective, outgoing, or anything in between, but they are generally free-spirited. Most were interested in the arts, and the order included many artists, writers, musicians, and performers.{{epigraph ref|sa2|49}}{{wob ref|13777}} They had a keen appreciation for the value of beauty and entertainment, and felt that it was not enough if Roshar made it through the [[Desolation]]s but lost such things.{{wob ref|13777}} Perhaps as an outgrowth of that belief, the Lightweavers seem to have taken some responsibility for maintaining morale among the Knights Radiant.{{epigraph ref|sa2|47}} Some of them were interested in intrigue and secrets, and often served as the spies of the Knights Radiant.{{wob ref|16463}} While their personal values were strong, they often had looser morals than the other orders. As a result of their inclination for subterfuge and more relaxed attitude, they were sometimes distrusted by others, particularly the Skybreakers.{{wob ref|13777}}
