Difference between revisions of "Shallan Davar"

In Words of Radiance, Shallan discovered the ability to project images into life although incorporeal. Due to a lack of practice and experience, she could only create the images after sketching them first. In Oathbringer, Shallan was shown to use Illumination without drawing her images beforehand as seen when she conjured images she recalled watching as a child for Pattern. She also discovered she could use Pattern to project sounds when in the image. The range of an image is limited to its proximity to a source of Investiture as the user moves away from an image it will begin to blur and then dissolve when its connection is broken, increased focus on the part of a user can increase the range but not greatly. During the [[Battle of Kholinar]], Shallan was shown to be capable of making more solid illusions. While the reason for this is unknown, Jasnah commented that Shallan's projections appeared to have some substance to them as if it had more stormlight than usual while Shallan briefly wonders if she mixed her Soulcasting abilities with this Surge. {{book ref|sa3|121}} {{book ref|sa3|120}}
