'''Charred''' are a classification of [[Investiture|Invested]] being on [[Canticle]].{{book ref|tsm|11}}
== 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}}

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}}
== Abilities and Weaknesses ==
Charred posses supernatural strength, speed, and durability.{{book ref|tsm|1}}{{book ref|tsm|6}}{{book ref|tsm|18}}{{book ref|tsm|42}} They are very effective in close combat and are consistently driven to act.{{book ref|tsm|16}}{{book ref|tsm|24}} Charred can also use their cinderhearts to ignite explosives.{{book ref|tsm|42}} Their bodies are hotter than normal and can cause water to quickly evaporate if touching them.{{book ref|tsm|4}} Sunlit Charred are able to absorb a much larger amount of [[Investiture]] than normal, though being Charred does not grant someone the inherent ability to absorb Investiture.{{book ref|tsm|24}}{{book ref|tsm|2}}
A major weakness of Charred is that they will collapse if heat is drawn from their bodies.{{book ref|tsm|5}} Charred will also not survive modern weapons, such as guns, and are not strong enough to break out of chains.{{book ref|tsm|18}}{{book ref|tsm|5}} They can also be killed if they are unable to breathe.{{book ref|tsm|16}}
