m (→Abilities and Appearance: I'm guessing the reference is to Llarimar's line that "it's impossible" for Lightsong to "go mad," but I think it's a little unclear whether that's an actual effect of divine Breath or a reflection of Llarimar's belief that the Returned are true gods, so I think a "possibly" is warranted here) |

== Abilities and Appearance ==
All Returned have increased strength and speed, and are able to move inhumanly fast.{{wob ref|6808}} Their bodies will not grow stronger from exercise or weaken from a lack of it.{{book ref|wb|44}} They are also immune to most physical sicknesses and ailments,{{book ref|wb|18}}
Their divine Breath allows them to reach the Fifth Heightening. Children and animals can sense a Returned's divine Breath, which has an effect on their [[Spiritweb]] and in the [[Cognitive Realm]], making them feel comfortable and react positively to the Returned.{{wob ref|3950}}{{wob ref|7365}} A Returned may give this Breath in an act of self-sacrifice to heal one person. The healing ability can cure diseases, heal almost any wound, and regrow lost body parts. The sacrifice does not grant the Fifth Heightening to the receiver.{{book ref|wb|12}} The divine Breath can be used for things other than healing, though no one in-world has figured out how to do it yet.{{wob ref|12013}}
