}}

Unlike other Heralds, Ishar is sometimes described as having powers even before he became known as a Herald, although whether this means he had them before ''becoming'' a Herald is uncertain. His particular powers are seemingly tied to the [[cosmere]]-wide phenomenon of [[Connection]]. He is often described as the founder of the [[Oathpact]], and is believed to have been the founder of the [[Knights Radiant]], forcing them to organize and adopt precepts to live by, likely to prevent another [[Ashyn]]-like catastrophe.{{epigraph ref|sa2|42}}{{book ref|sa3|64}} Even among the other Heralds, the Radiants were sometimes known as "Ishar's Knights".{{book ref|sa2|63}}

Renounce your foolish claims and swear yourselves to him. The judgment of the final storm has come to destroy all men, and only his path will lead to deliverance. He deigns to send you this single mandate, and will not speak it again. Even this is far above what your carnal natures deserve.
