Intention is involved to some degree in the following contexts:
; On Roshar
: The remnants of [[Honor]]'s power could be used to release and expel [[Odium]] from [[Roshar]], if the wielder of the power did so with Intent.{{book ref|sa3|57}} Prior to the [[Recreance]] some believed that the [[Sibling]] had withdrawn from humans by intent, though there is some evidence that this was not the case.{{epigraph ref|sa3|68}} In order to access the powers granted by an [[Honorblade]], one must do so intentionally. It is possible to hold an Honorblade and not have access to its powers if they are unknown.{{wob ref|1875}}

For example, [[Midnight Essence]] will act and communicate according to the intention of the host{{book ref|tress|62}}, and similarly the one who initiates a verdant spore reaction forms a sort of [[Connection]] to the verdant vines and can control their growth.{{book ref|tress|41}} The more practised the sprouter, the stronger their connection to the manifestation.{{book ref|tress|58}}
