'''Crem''' was part of the rain water on [[Roshar]]. When crem was ingested it could make people sick, so one always waited one day until the crem was settled down and then took the fresh water from the top.
Crem — is a sludgy brown material that fell with rainwater—could make a man sick. One always let water sit for a day, then poured off the fresh water on top and used the crem to make pottery{{ref|b|twok|c|16}}. The People of [[Sesemalex Dar]] are famous for their expert crem pottery{{ref|b|twok|c|55}}.

In Eighth Epoch, three thirty-seven [[Dalinar Kholin]] is in a Farmhous build out of Crembricks{{ref|b|twok|c|19}}, and [[Shallan Davar]] consoders if the buildings of [[Kharbranth]] were made of crem.XXX3 When the [[Parshendi]] were diescovert it was observed that their buildings were simple buildings, which they construct of crem and stone. They build them in the craterlike rock formations here at the edge of the [[Shattered Plains]]{{ref|b|twok|c|45}}.
 
Crem was used for buildings, too. Even in earlier history of Roshar, farmhouses were built of crembricks.{{ref|b|sa1|c|19}} [[Shallan Davar]] considers if the buildings of [[Kharbranth]] were made of crem.{{ref|b|sa1|c|3}} When the [[Parshendi]] were diescovered by [[Gavilar Kholin|King Gavilar]] and his brother [[Dalinar Kholin|Dalinar]] it was observed that they made simple buildings of crem and stone. {{ref|b|twok|c|45}}
Among the problems with crem are, that if there is still crem in the drinkingwater one will get sick. Also caverns are often sealed up by crem. the bigges probelm however is that icicle-like pendants of rock form on the edges of roofs. [[Highstorms]] dropped stormwater, and stormwater carried crem. If left alone, crem eventually hardened into stone. Buildings grew stalactites, formed by stormwater slowly dripping from the eaves. People had to clean them off regularly, or risk weighing down the roof so much that it collapsed{{ref|b|twok|c|25}}.▼
