“At these points, Physical matter, Cognitive thought, and Spiritual essence become one--and a being can slide between Realms. ”
A Perpendicularity is a stable junction between the Physical realm and Cognitive Realm. They are used by Worldhoppers such as Hoid to go from planet to planet. They are formed through the concentration of Investiture in the Physical and Cognitive Realms. Because of this, they are most commonly found at Shardpools.
Known Perpendicularities
- Scadrial
- The pool below the Pits of Hathsin was the main perpendicularity before it was destroyed by Kelsier. The other known perpendicularity, the Well of Ascension, was extremely dangerous during Ruin's imprisonment.[2]
- Sel
- Devotion's shardpool is currently the only known perpendicularity on Sel.
- Threnody
- Perpendicularities on Threnody are unstable, unpredictable, and have a morbid origin.[1]
- First of the Sun
- First of the Sun is notable for being a minor shardworld with a perpendicularity.[1] It is, presumably, Patji's Eye.
