All forms of Investiture which one can use are related to the spiritweb. Some manifestations of Investiture are built into a person's Spiritual DNA, such as [[Allomancy]] and [[Feruchemy]]. Other abilities, such as [[Hemalurgy]] and [[Surgebinding]], involve manipulating Spiritual DNA. A few types of Investiture even work by manipulating or overwriting the spiritweb directly, such as [[Forgery]]. |

People from the planet [[Canticle]] are able to exchange portions of their spirtweb similar to breath. Unlike breath, heat can only be exchanged with people of Canticle (including by invitation).{{book ref|tsm|Thirty-Nine}} It is unclear how this would interact with Allomancy, as the strength of Allomantic power is generally proportional to the amount of [[Preservation|Preservation's]] investiture an Allomancer contains.{{Cite}} |

When a [[cinderheart]] is inserted deadly into a persons chest it consumes the connections and identity in a person's spirtweb, and connects them to other people who host a cinderheart.{{book ref|tsm|50}}{{wob ref|16297}} People who have a cinderheart placed more shallowly become connected to other people who host a cinder heart, but still maintain their original connections and identity.{{Cite}} |

A [[Surgebinder]]'s [[Nahel bond]] with a [[spren]] works in a similar way, a spren becoming spiritually attached to a certain point on a person's spiritweb, merging together as the [[Surgebinder]] progresses in their [[Immortal Words|Oaths]].{{wob ref|184}}{{cite|WOB on merging more as oaths progress}} |
