When one form of Investiture attempts to co-opt or corrupt another form of Investiture, it will often produce a red effect.{{wob ref|8340}} Examples of this include the red smoke given off by [[Shai]]'s [[soulstamp]]s when she uses them to temporarily tweak [[Gaotona]]'s soul,{{tes ref|30}}{{wob ref|13830}} the red haze of [[Trell (Trellism)|Trell]] invading [[Scadrial]],{{book ref|mb6|28}}{{wob ref|13074}}{{wob ref|8345}} and the red coloring of some of the spren Enlightened by [[Sja-anat]].{{book ref|sa3|78}}{{book ref|sa3|89}}{{book ref|sa3|115}} Similarly, when some entity possesses or has a strong influence over a person, the person's eyes will often grow red, as seen with the bodies on Scadrial controlled by Trell's Faceless Immortals[[Autonomy]],{{book ref|mb6|epilogue}}{{book ref|mb7|55}} the soldiers possessed via [[Nergaoul|the Thrill]] at the [[Battle of Thaylen Field]],{{book ref|sa3|115}}{{book ref|sa3|117}} and many of Odium's servants, whose souls are corrupted by his power.{{book ref|sa4|38}}{{book ref|sa4|42}}
