Anti-Light shares most of the physical and magical properties of ordinary Light: it glows in the physical spectrum (though unlike regular Lights, it appears to warp the air around it, almost as if it is drawing light instead of emitting it), it can be stored in gems, it responds to sound and vibration, and has Intent. One area where anti-Light differs from regular Light - or at least the pure ones - is that it requires Intent to be created, a property it shares with the hybrid Lights. The only known method of creating anti-Light requires dampening the natural vibration of its corresponding Light, isolating it from its Shard's pure tone, and then re-writing it with a different tone, one that has been inverted with Intent. One way to do this involves putting the ordinary Light in vacuum and allowing it to draw near a gemstone that has been made to vibrate to the tone of the desired anti-Light - the ordinary Light's opposite tone.{{book ref|sa4|97}}
Much like each Light's natural vibration can be heard or felt by different species, anti-Light's can too, though its song is not just physically audible, it carries a magical effect too. For example, to a human the song of anti-Voidlight will sound identical to the song of Voidlight, Odium's tone moving to his rhythm, but to a Fused - whose soul is filled with Odium's own Investiture - the song of anti-Voidlight not only sounds different, it also causes intense pain, similar to the discomfort they feel when hearing Odium's opposite tone, but much worse.{{book ref|sa4|97}} The type of
=== Anti-Voidlight ===
=== Anti-Stormlight ===
Anti-Stormlight was discovered by [[Raboniel]] shortly after Navani's own discovery of [[anti-Voidlight]]. In many ways, [[anti-Stormlight]] behaves symmetrically to [[anti-Voidlight]] - except where [[anti-Voidlight]] has a destructive effect on beings Invested by [[Odium]], [[anti-Stormlight]] has that effect on ones Invested by Honor, such as Radiant spren.{{book ref|sa4|97}}{{book ref|sa4|104}} Using [[Raysium]] weapons, [[anti-Stormlight]] is able to kill Radiant spren, which breaks the bond between the spren and its Radiant.{{book ref|sa4|104}}
=== Other anti-Investiture ===
It is unknown whether hybrid Lights or [[Shards]] outside of the Rosharan system have anti-Investitures of their own. [[Khriss]] states that, though long theorized, the anti-Lights are her first evidence of an anti-Investiture.{{book ref|sa4|part=ars}}
