== Appearance ==
Jasnah's use of the soulcaster exacerbated her conflict with the [Vorin Church], as they maintain a monopoly on the use and control over soulcasters, and her soulcaster was to all apperances, the only soulcaster outside their control. This monopoly is likely in order to protect the secrets of the soulcaster - including the toll it takes on the user. Many members of the church have attempted to remove the soulcaster from her posession - either through bribery, coercion, or theft.
The Soulcaster consists of two rings and a bracelet, with chains connecting them.{{book ref|sa1|5}} Three extremely large oval-cut [[gemstone]]s–a smokestone, a diamond, and a ruby–are set in a triangle that lays across the back of the hand.{{book ref|sa1|5}} The gems glow brightly with [[Stormlight]] when Jasnah is Soulcasting.{{book ref|sa1|5}} Jasnah sometimes wears a fingerless glove over the Soulcaster to block the light from the gemstones.{{book ref|sa1|8}}
 
== History ==
Jasnah's open and notorious use of the soulcaster made her the only viable target for [[Shallan Davar]], whom needed to steal a functional soulcaster to return to the [[Ghostbloods]].
