== Accessing Investiture == Many methods of accessing Shardic power have been observed throughout the Cosmere, but all share certain cardinal similarities; an established connection or ability to create a connection to to a source of power, and a way of directing that power. Methods of accessing investiture can be broadly divided into two types: physical and mechanical; the source of the investiture (end-positive, end-neutral, or end-negative) also plays a role in the way the power is accessed. Several end-positive magics share the trait of requiring a Spiritual shift of some kind; Elantrians are more closely attuned to the Spiritual Realm (incidentally, this is why [[Hemalurgy]] gets more from them), Allomancers, in Classical Scadrial, had to snap to access power, and Surgebinders "plug" spren into themselves. This is related to [[Nightblood]]'s nausea- a bond must be created in order for Nightblood to drain Investiture from its holder to power itself. Once a conduit has been established, a key, such as an Aon, metal, or Command, is used to tell it how to act.
