The '''Dawnshards''' are the four primal [[Command]]s that [[Adonalsium]] used to create all things.{{book ref|dawnshard|19}} Each Dawnshard grants separate abilities,{{wob ref|15961}} as well as powers accessible via any Dawnshard,{{wob ref|14328}} and can supercharge Invested Arts,{{wob ref|14347}} allowing for acts of magic that transcend what is normally possible.{{book ref|sa3|113}} They are Commands of immense power, and at least one has been secreted away by a group called the [[Sleepless]] to prevent unknown groups from ending the lives of billions.{{book ref|dawnshard|18}} The knowledge of Dawnshards is somewhat esoteric, most who know of them either seek them as weapons, or flee as far as they can from the Dawnshards.{{book ref|tsm|45}}
They have been heavily involved in the history of Roshar, but the knowledge of the true nature of the Dawnshards is very esoteric,{{book ref|dawnshard|19}} so they are considered to be unspecified mythological objects by most people by the time of Era of Solitude on [[Roshar]].{{book ref|sa1|29}}
