== Appearance and Properties ==
Crem is a light brown, sediment-like substance. It falls along with the heavy rains during [[highstorm]]s, while the lighter rainfall during the [[Weeping]]s does not carry it.{{book ref|sa2|81}} It gives stormwater a metallic taste.{{wob ref|8491}} Consuming it can cause sickness, making highstorm water unsafe for humans to drink;{{wob ref|11570}}
Highstorms cause crem buildup on all structures, whether unnatural or natural, such as buildings, plateaus, and even corpses.{{book ref|sa1|69}}{{book ref|sa2|51}} Unless cleaned regularly, everything on Roshar eventually becomes covered with crem, and any overhangs will grow crem stalactites.{{book ref|sa1|25}}{{book ref|sa1|69}} In fact, the entire continent is slowly "migrating" leeward, thanks to the highstorms depositing crem as they travel.{{wob ref|5712}}
