== Attributes and Abilities ==
=== Surgebinding ===
Because of her Nahel bond with [[spren]] Pattern, Shallan possesses the ability to Surgebind. She has access to the surgebindings lightweaving and transformation. As with all Surgebinders, she has superhuman speed, strength and healing when she holds Stormlight. She has demonstrated her ability to Soulcast multiple times, though her other abilities remain yet to be seen. She is in the process of becoming a [[Knights Radiant|Knight Radiant]].
;Transformation:
The Surge of Transformation allows Shallan to use [[Soulcasting]].
=== Memory ===
Shallan had the ability to deliberately memorize a scene (usually involving blinking) after which she could paint or draw that scene with remarkable accuracy. She had a passion for learning and a great talent for drawing. She was never without her sketchbooks and charcoal, so she might draw whatever caught her interest. Shallan frequently drew and made notes on the world around her, in order to promote her [[Calling]] of natural history.{{book ref|sa1|5}} Shallan's ability to memorize scenes and reproduce them accurately seems similar to the ability of a [[Terris]] [[Keeper]] to store memories in a coppermind, in that both talents involve the removal of a memory from the mind and its replacement in another medium - in Shallan's case, a sketch rather than a coppermind.
