Investiture transcends the three realms: [[Physical Realm|Physical]], [[Cognitive Realm|Cognitive]], and [[Spiritual Realm|Spiritual Realm]] that compose most of the [[cosmere]]. However, it is more Spiritual than anything.{{epigraph ref|mb3|57}}{{wob ref|5610}} In the Physical Realm, Investiture is known to exist in solid, (i.e. [[atium]] and [[lerasium]]), liquid (many [[Perpendicularity|perpendicularities]]), and gaseous material forms ([[Mist|Preservation's Mists]], [[Light]], [[BioChromatic Breath]]). For some reason, all solid Investiture is metallic, the result of one of the laws governing the cosmere.{{book ref|sa2.5|20}}{{wob ref|9291}} Most often these appear due to influence by a [[Vessel]], however some formations occur in a more natural way. Some solid Investiture, like atium, breaks the general rules regarding how Invested objects interact with Investiture.{{wob ref|8929}}
Large amounts of Investiture concentrated in a specific location tend to pierce a hole in the three realms (Spiritual, Cognitive, and Physical) and create a perpendicularity. This effect is similar to the gravity generated by large amounts of matter.{{wob ref|8920}} Like matter, Investiture causes time dilation in any amount, with the degree of time dilation being proportional to the amount of Investiture in a given area, but this is relatively mild even by
When a Shard is "co-opting or corrupting another Shard's magic", the color red has a tendency to manifest.{{wob ref|8340}}{{book ref|sa3|117}}{{tes ref|30}}{{book ref|mb6|28}} All Investiture creates some type of emotional reaction in users.{{wob ref|13392}} Investiture has flavor to beings such as [[Nightblood]], and different Investitures would have different flavors.{{wob ref|15669}}{{book ref|sa4|42}} Raw Investiture responds to thoughts, emotions, and Intent, especially from heavily Invested beings.{{book ref|yumi|32}}{{book ref|tsm|21}}
