== Prerequisites ==
Charred are created using a corrupted [[sunheart]], called a cinderheart, and stabbing a person in the chest with it.{{book ref|tsm|45}}{{book ref|tsm|24}}
This is typically done while attached to a spearhead.{{book ref|tsm|4}} [[Union]] has a machine that implants the cinderheart, although still being done with a spear.{{book ref|tsm|50}} Once the cinderheart is inserted heat will begin to flare, causing sparks and flames to spray out as the body is burned.{{book ref|tsm|50}} The person's pectorals, rib cage, and heart will burn away, leaving seared and blackened skin.{{book ref|tsm|1}} The cinderheart will then radiate from the center of the cavity.{{book ref|tsm|50}}
The immense amount of heat causes most of their memories and soul to burn up.{{book ref|tsm|50}}{{book ref|tsm|20}} Giving a Charred even more heat can further destroy their memories.{{book ref|tsm|50}}
At some point [[Scadrial|Scadrian]] researchers arrived on [[Canticle]] and began experimenting with the local investiture. One of these experiments led to them creating cinderhearts, and finding out how to create Charred and Sunlit Ones.{{book ref|tsm|45}} They also met the [[Cinder King]] and began trading with him.
During one of these trades, the Cinder King acquired the knowledge of how to make Charred and Sunlit Ones. He began doing this shortly after, creating the army by which he was able to conquer the world. After the Cinder King was overthrown, Union decided to rehabilitate the existing Charred, and stop the creation of new ones.{{book ref|tsm|epilogue}}
