== Bonds ==
Bonds are connections between entities in the [[Cosmere]] that exist outside the [[Physical Realm]]. All bonds are basically the same, with the powers and functions depending on the holders of the bond. {{urlreddit ref|url= http://www.reddit.com/r/books/comments/|2ytg2h/im_novelist_brandon_sanderson_ama/|cscqe8l|text=All bonds are basically the same |site= reddit}} Shardworlds can also have an effect on what the bond does. Bonds are typically formed between entities with greater-than-normal [[Investiture]] (i.e. [[Spren]]) and other entities, allowing them to gain enhancements. It is unknown if a person with only innate [[Investiture]] is able to create a Bond.{{qa ref|1076|27}} Bonds are not limited to connections of entities with greater-than-normal [[Investiture]] to innately invested entities; they can also be made between two entities with greater-than-normal [[Investiture]].{{qa ref|1113|2}}
 
=== Types of known Bonding Entities ===
 
==== Scadrial Bonds ====
 
No Bonds are known of on this shard world.
 
 
== The Known effect of Bonds while on other Shard worlds ==
Bonds on some Shard worlds provide the Holders of the Bonds with additional powers.{{urlreddit ref|url= http://www.reddit.com/r/books/comments/|2ytg2h/im_novelist_brandon_sanderson_ama/|cscqe8l|text=All bonds are basically the same |site= reddit}}
 
=== Roshar ===
 
[[Hemalurgy]] is end-negative. Investiture held in a spike outside the body decays.
 
 
== Investiture of Humans ==
 
The conditions required for becoming invested with a larger amount of power differ from [[Shardworld]] to Shardworld. It is assumed that the intent of the respective Shard influences these conditions. On [[Scadrial]] connection to a Shard is determined by genetics. On [[Sel]] it's the [[Shaod]] that comes to those who live in the correct area and are devoted to something, and on [[Roshar]] it has to do with a persons actions and how they live their life.{{qa ref|608|15}}
 
 
== Investiture of Objects ==
 
Invested objects are harder to affect with any magic system, the more Investiture the more difficult to affect.{{qa ref|715|1}}{{qa ref|979|51}}Once an object has been invested it is very hard to invest it with a different kind of investiture as well.{{qa ref|1034|28}} Sometimes when an object in one of the Realms has a large amount of Investiture it can gain sentience.(see [[Spren]] and [[Nightblood]])
 
 
== Investiture of Natural Phenomenon ==
It is possible for a natural force to become Invested. On [[Roshar]], [[Zahel]] states that the [[Highstorm|Highstorms]] are Invested. Whether this is the result of purposeful design by a [[Shardholder]], or the continued maintainence of another entity such as the [[Stormfather]], has not been revealed. It is also not clear whether the storm is invested in and of itself, or if it houses another form of Investiture.
