; Scadrial
* '''Ruin''':The the pool below the [[Pits of Hathsin]] (was [[Ruin]]'s perpendicularity); it was the main perpendicularitypath used by inter-world traders before it was destroyed by [[Kelsier]]. The other known perpendicularity, the [[Well of Ascension]] ([[Preservation]]'s perpendicularity), was extremely dangerous during [[Ruin]]'s imprisonment.{{msh ref|2|1}}
* '''Preservation''': [[Preservation]]'s perpendicularity was the [[Well of Ascension]]. It served as [[Ruin]]'s prison, making it extremely dangerous.{{msh ref|2|1}}
* '''Harmony''': Whether [[Harmony]] has a perpendicularity, and whether it's one or two perpendicularities, has not been revealed.{{wob ref|11311}}{{wob ref|5628}} An article in ''[[The House Record]]'' mentions a woman coming across a perfectly blue pool somewhere in the mountains in the Southern [[Roughs]], and a sudden appearance of a strange figure by the pool. It's possible, though not confirmed, that this could be Harmony's perpendicularity.
 
; Sel
* '''Devotion''': [[Devotion's Perpendicularity|The Pool]], belonging to ([[Devotion]]'s perpendicularity), is currently the only known perpendicularity on Sel.
 
; Threnody
:Perpendicularities on* Threnody aredoes not have a stable perpendicularity, but rather a number of unstable, unpredictable, andones haveof a morbid origin.{{au ref|threnodite}} They may possibly have something to do with the creation of [[Shade]]s, although the fact that the Shard of [[Ambition]] has died near the system has far greater influence on their creation.{{wob ref|12922}}
 
; First of the Sun
:* First of the Sun is notable for being a minor [[Shardworld]] with a perpendicularity.{{au ref|drominad}} It is, presumably, [[Patji's Eye]].
 
; Roshar
* '''Cultivation''': [[Cultivation's Perpendicularity]] is located in the [[Horneater Peaks]], under the surface of one of the [[Horneater Oceans]]. For [[worldhopper]]s of Roshar, it's the main method of travelling between Roshar and its subastral, [[Shadesmar]].{{book ref|sa3|93}} Most recently, it has been besieged by the [[Fused]].{{book ref|sa3|102}}
: A pool in the [[Horneater Peaks]] is confirmed to be [[Cultivation's Perpendicularity]] by [[Vivenna|Azure]] when she, [[Shallan]], [[Adolin]], and [[Kaladin]] get trapped in [[Shadesmar]]. Azure also mentions an unstable perpendicularity that is very dangerous (Possibly Honor's). [[Dalinar]] brings Honor's perpendicularity to him when he denies Odium and unites the Realms, charging nearby spheres with Investiture from the Spiritual Realm. [[Transportation]] temporarily creates a miniature perpendicularity.{{wob ref|1525}}
* '''Honor''': [[Honor's Perpendicularity]] is well-known among worldhoppers and [[spren]] to be unstable and dangerous.{{book ref|sa3|93}} The exact pattern of its appearence is uncertain, although [[Dalinar]] manages to open it upon swearing the Third Ideal of the [[Bondsmiths]]. The perpendicularity closes on its own within a few minutes.{{book ref|sa3|119}}
* The [[Surge]] of [[Transportation]] temporarily creates a miniature perpendicularity, allowing an [[Elsecaller]] or [[Willshaper]] to travel into Shadesmar from anywhere.{{wob ref|1525}} However, returning back to the [[Physical Realm]] presents a far greater challange, and can only be performed in some places.{{book ref|sa2|epilogue}}
 
;Nalthis
* '''Endowment''': The location of [[Endowment]]'s perpendicularity is unspecified. It is, however, located somewhere in the jungles of [[Hallandren]]. The [[Tears of Edgli]] own their existence and their unusual properites as dye material to soaking up the [[Investiture]] flowing up from the perpendicularity.{{wob ref|9833}}
