m (Definitely could be Hoid's, though I wouldn't be that certain; regardless, even if it does turn out to be Hoid's, it's still relevant for readers to know that a person with the Dawnshard has appeared. Since it concerns character appearances though, I'm moving it to Trivia) Tag: Undo |

There is also a Dawnshard that was long in the possession of Hoid with an Intent that is diametrically opposed to violence and harm.{{book ref|tsm|21}} One of the side effects of having held this Dawnshard is an ability to feed on Investiture to heal oneself.{{book ref|tsm|34}} Holding this Dawnshard can also cause that person to stop aging, remaining the same age as the moment they first picked it up.{{book ref|tsm|11}}{{book ref|tsm|21}} Enough time holding this Dawnshard can make a person that possibly may never die or be killed, like Hoid.{{book ref|tsm|34}} It also grants enhancements of durability and ability to go without breathing and survive in a vacuum unprotected, although this may be partially due to Sigzil's past as a [[Radiant]].{{book ref|tsm|23}}
Another side effect of this Dawnshard is what Sigzil terms the Torment, the inability to intentionally do harm or violence to another.{{book ref|tsm|1}} This manifests in both Hoid and Sigzil to differing degrees. Sigzil for instance is able to do harm when it is in line with his oaths{{book ref|tsm|1}} or when he has managed to lessen the Torment using his [[sunheart]].{{book ref|tsm|36}} Sigzil also experiences this as a freezing up in combat.{{book ref|tsm|1}} Hoid is unable to cause harm, consider hurting anyone at all, or even consume meat without extreme incapacitating nausea.{{wob ref|2010}}{{wob ref|15596}} He is however capable of causing pain to a [[Cognitive
This Dawnshard also Connects the person who has held it to the cosmere as a whole.{{book ref|tsm|21}} This means that those that are changed by the Dawnshard are capable of Skipping, transporting themselves from one planet to another in the cosmere, using up great amounts of Investiture in the process.{{book ref|tsm|1}} While this is something Sigzil can do, it is unclear if Hoid will ever learn to Skip, it has not been something he has generally been able to do.{{wob ref|15620}} This ability started from a certain event.{{wob ref|16235}}
