=== Surgebinding ===
Lift has formed a [[Nahel bond]] with Wyndle, which grants her the ability to Surgebind, although at first Lift herself is not entirely certain whether she believes this.{{book ref|sa2|i|9}} She is able to summon Wyndle as a [[Shardblade]] after swearing the [[Order of Edgedancers#Ideals of the Edgedancers|Third Ideal]] of the Edgedancers.{{book ref|sa2.5|19}} As
; Abrasion:
Abrasion allows her to change the friction of her body against her surroundings.{{book ref|sa2|i|9}} She refers to this ability as her "Slickness." Lift uses this ability often to make quick getaways. She reduces friction on all parts of her body except the soles of her feet and palms of her hands, and then kneels and propels herself swiftly forward using her palms. This also comes in handy when Lift is escaping pursuers, because it is nearly impossible for them to get a grip on her.
; Progression:
Lift's visit to the Nightwatcher leaves her with a rather unique trait, one that is not among the typical power set of the Edgedancers.{{book ref|sa2|i|9}} She exists partially in the Cognitive realm, which grants her some special abilities. The first is that she can touch spren, something that is supposed to be impossible, as they exist mostly in the Cognitive realm.{{book ref|sa4|i|5}} This ability greatly helps Lift with her thievery, as Wyndle takes the form of a vine. He can make handholds or increase the width of ledges for Lift by growing where she needs to go, but no one else is able to see or touch him. She is also one of the few people who can always see [[Syl]], regardless on whether she wants to be seen.{{book ref|sa4|41}}
Lift's other power is even more impressive.{{book ref|sa2|i|9}} Unlike most Surgebinders, who are able to draw Stormlight from external sources, Lift metabolizes food directly into [[Lifelight]], and uses Lifelight to fuel her Surges instead of Stormlight.{{wob ref|8073}}{{wob ref|2739}}{{book ref|
Lift asked to stay the same and not become someone else,{{book ref|sa2.5|15}}{{book ref|sa4|interlude|5}} though the actual boon and curse are still unknown, but as an effect of one or the other, her spirit-web has been given the ability to convert mass directly to [[Investiture]].{{wob ref|2739}}
