== Effects and Abilites ==
Regardless of how the Dakhor system is accessed, there are some constant effects. Dakhor can grant several abilities, some of which are part of the standard ability set for monks of Dakhor monastery. The first is the extreme strength of anyone who uses Dakhor.{{book ref|Elantris|58}} The bones of the the Dakhor monks are almost indestructible, leaving meelee weapons mostly useless against them.{{book ref|Elantris|62}} although this may just be part of the increased strength they have. Those who use Dakhor can receive enhanced speed as well.{{book ref|Elantris|58}} Another more costly power is teleportation. In exchange for one person's death, large groups of people can be transported instantaneously somewhere.{{book ref|Elantris|60}} The body and spirit of the person who is sacrificed is used to power this ability.
 
Another ability granted by Dakhor can change a person's appearance, such as race.{{book ref|Elantris|60}} This could presumably be used to change any aspect of a person's appearance. Dakhor can also grant the ability to negate [[Aon]]s drawn by [[Elantrian]]s,{{book ref|Elantris|56}} though it is also possible for Dakhor to be negated by [[AonDor]].{{wob ref|3014}} Another ability that can be given through Dakhor is a resistance to attacks from the Dor.{{book ref|Elantris|62}} This power requires the deaths of fifty people to be granted and is rarely given. It is unknown if the ability to negate Aons and the resistance to Dor attacks are two separate abilities or both tied to the same type of bone shape. Dakhor users live longer than a regular human.{{book ref|Elantris|58}}
 
If a [[Bloodsealer]] were to use Bloodsealing on the bones of someone who used Dakhor, the bones would still be able to access the Dor.{{wob ref|10831}} IfIt awould [[kandra]]take weremore tothan getjust the bones of a Dakhor monk theyfor woulda [[kandra]] to get Dakhor abilities, but it would take more than just the bones.{{wob ref|152}}
