Leras is a Vessel of a [[Shard]]; as such, he is unaging, nigh-omniscient within his sphere of influence, and lacking a form in the [[Physical Realm]] -- his actual body is stored somewhere else, and reappears on [[Scadrial]] upon his death.{{book ref|mb3|82}} He is, however, dead, and has been for centuries, if not millennia; as such, he is slowly unraveling. He lacks significant fragments of his memories, has trouble focusing, and only remains lucid for short periods of time.{{msh ref|1|1}} He has trouble keeping a humanoid appearance even in the [[Cognitive Realm]], and parts of him can only appear as tendrils of mist.{{msh ref|1|2}} He's also technically a [[Cognitive Shadow]]; a fading imprint of mind and memory on the power of [[Preservation]].{{wob ref|6891}}{{msh ref|3|2}}

 

 

The form he takes in the Cognitive Realm carries on it a [[Leras' knife|knife with bone handle]].{{msh ref|1|1}} He refers to it as his old friend, and his first instinct when threatened is to reach for it, suggesting he was once at least moderately capable with it; however, in the present times he finds actually harming someone else almost impossible.{{msh ref|1|2}}{{msh ref|2|3}}
