Geographically, Roshar in the [[Cognitive Realm]] appears like an inversion of the continent in the Physical Realm, with its inland seas corresponding exactly to the shape of the land of Roshar. The "seas" are made of tiny dark glass beads that represent objects that exist in the Physical Realm. These beads are bean-sized, or slightly larger than a fingernail.{{wob ref|date=2017-11-16|8533|Oathbringer Portland signing}} There are spren that look like "little green and orange people, only a few inches tall" climbing around the spheres.{{book ref|sa3|89}} When asked if this is the general rule, Sanderson said "there are places in Shadesmar that are different, and some are the same."{{wob ref|7200}}
 
Living things manifest on Roshar's Cognitive Realm as flames. If the person is strongly influenced by [[Odium]] (and presumably certain other Shards), the flame turns red.{{book ref|sa3|116}} A flame vanishes when the person represented by it dies.
