The '''Order of Willshapers'''
The Willshapers

Willshapers generally subscribe to a philosophy that all people should be free to make their own choices.{{wob ref|13779}} They focus on personal fulfillment, radical self-expression, and freeing those who are captive.{{wob ref|16467}}{{book ref|sa4|60}} The order tends to believe that any laws are a form of oppression.{{wob ref|16467}} The order is said to be most varied, save for a general love of adventure, novelty, or oddity.{{epigraph ref|sa2|50}}{{wob ref|14995}} They tend to attract builders, craftsmen, and other artisans.{{wob ref|13779}}{{wob ref|16467}}

== Abilities ==
▲The Willshapers use the Surges of '''Transportation''' and '''Cohesion'''. Like most Knights Radiant, the Willshapers have squires.{{book ref|sa4|67}}
=== Transportation ===
[[Surgebinding#Transportation|'''Transportation''']] allows the transfer of one's physical body into and out of the [[Cognitive Realm]],{{wob ref|1597}} a process sometimes known as Elsecalling.{{wob ref|14921}} It works by creating a miniature [[perpendicularity]] that the Willshaper can go through.{{wob ref|1525}} It is significantly easier to enter the Cognitive Realm using Elsecalling than it is to leave it.{{book ref|sa3|33}} Willshapers are able to use this ability to [[worldhop]].{{wob ref|655}} Willshapers are also capable of looking into Shadesmar without fully Elsecalling.
=== Cohesion ===
[[Surgebinding#Cohesion|'''Cohesion''']] allows them to alter the shape of solid objects in a way called Stoneshaping. This surge allows a Willshaper to make stone more malleable, like clay, or even a liquid.{{book ref|sa4|67}} The Willshaper can then reshape the stone according to their desires. This surge also connects the Willshaper to the spren of the stone in a deep, fundamental way, though the full extent of this is not yet known.{{book ref|sa4|67}}{{book ref|sa4|part=ars}}
=== Regals ===
When a Willshaper is also a [[Regal]], additional abilities arise. Though there is a voidspren within the singer's gemheart, the Reacher keeps it trapped and protects their Willshaper from the voidspren's influence.{{book ref|sa4|11}} This allows the Radiant to retain their form's abilities and switch between red and normal eyes at will, letting them blend in with Odium's forces.{{book ref|sa3|120}} Regal Willshapers are able to use both Stormlight and Voidlight to fuel their Surgebinding.{{book ref|sa4|11}}{{book ref|sa4|109}} These Willshapers are also highly resistant to [[suppression fabrial]]s that stop Radiants from Surgebinding.{{book ref|sa4|67}}
== History ==
{{image|WOKLB - KS - Willshapers by Steve Argyle.jpg|width=250px|side=right}}
Little is currently known about the Willshapers of old. Though the order tended to attract builders, craftsmen and other artisans, their membership tended to be varied in profession.{{wob ref|13779}} They were also varied in personality, but generally enjoyed discovering new, unusual and strange things; they were also considered capricious and unreliable, making them somewhat frustrating to interact with.{{epigraph ref|sa2|50}}
Where the [[Windrunners]] were the protectors and the [[Stonewards]] the soldiers, the Willshapers were the liberators, both freeing those who were physically captive and aiding those who espoused new and radical ideas. They tasked themselves with building and supporting societies; they aided those who resisted tyranny and oppression. They were also literal builders -- in times of peace, they would use theirs powers to aid in constructing buildings and infrastructure, as well as training those who lived there; in times of war, they would fortify towns; and after the battle was over they, like their patron Herald, would travel to teach people of crafts such as bronzeworking or sanitation.{{book ref|sa2|i|7}}{{wob ref|13779}}
Much like the [[Elsecallers]], they were considered to have an affinity for [[Shadesmar]], suggesting that they might've also interacted with the [[spren]] nations on regular basis.{{epigraph ref|sa2|53}}
In the modern times, no human Willshapers have presented themselves so far; [[Venli]] appears to be the only person alive to have bonded a [[Reacher]].{{book ref|sa3|120}}
