'''Pailiah''', nicknamed '''Pali''', is one of the ten [[Herald]]s of the [[Almighty]] on [[Roshar]]. She's the patron of the [[Order of Truthwatchers]].{{wob ref|12509}}
 
== History ==
Like most other Heralds, Pailiah was born on [[Ashyn]] and made the trip to [[Roshar]] when the former was destroyed by a man-made catastrophe.{{wob ref|11945}} She was likely a scholar of some sort -- at the very least, she was an important figure in the early Rosharan society. When the [[Desolation]]s began, she was one of the ten people made Heralds by [[Honor]] and given a [[Honorblade]].{{book ref|sa3|38}}
 
Along with all Heralds but [[Taln]], Pailiah abandoned the [[Oathpact]] at the end of the [[Aharietiam]].{{book ref|sa1|part=prelude}} Her current whereabouts are uncertain. It's highly likely she's in the [[Palanaeum]] of [[Kharbranth]], posing as an [[ardent]] from the Devotary of Insight, although she does not belong to [[Taravangian]]'s inner circle of advisors.{{wob ref|4419}}{{wob ref|11521}}{{wob ref|11589}} If so, [[Shallan]] may have crossed paths with her while studying under [[Jasnah]].{{book ref|sa1|33}}
 
== Abilities ==
 
Back when Pailiah wielded her [[Honorblade]], she had the ability to use the [[Surge]]s of [[Illumination]], allowing her to create illusions of light and sound, and [[Progression]], letting her grow plants and heal herself and others. She would also have the ability to breathe in [[Stormlight]], compounding her self-healing power. However, she has abandoned her Blade at the Aharietiam, losing her access to Stormlight and Surgebinding.{{book ref|sa1|part=prelude}} Whether she has any supernatural abilities other than longevity in the present day is uncertain.
