'''Rushu''' is an [[ardent]] that works as scholar affiliated with the [[Kholin princedom]].{{book ref|sa2|4}} Rushu is interested in the study of handwriting{{book ref|sa2|4}} and fabrials,{{book ref|sa2|35}} and does research that revolutionizes artifabrians' understanding of how Shardblades function.{{book ref|sa2|67}}
== Appearance and Personality ==▼
Rushu is a very attractive young woman. Like many ardents, she keeps her head shaved.{{book ref|sa2|35}} Her face has delicate features, with long lush eyelashes and button-like lips.{{book ref|sa2|35}}{{book ref|sa2|4}}▼
Rushu is a brilliant scholar,{{book ref|sa2|35}} but occasionally somewhat oblivious to her surroundings.{{book ref|sa2|35}}{{book ref|sa2|4}} She does not notice hints or implied commands in others' words,{{book ref|sa2|35}} it often requires a direct command and multiple promptings to get her attention and make her realize what she is supposed to do.{{book ref|sa2|35}}{{book ref|sa2|4}} Rushu often gets distracted as well, reading scientific reports when she should be helping with an experiment.{{book ref|sa2|35}} She has trouble focusing, often wandering off on tangents and random thought experiments in conversation.{{book ref|sa2|35}} She joined the ardentia to escape the advances of men, but this did not work particularly well, as she still receives attention from many of the male ardents. She is particularly interested in the spren research{{book ref|sa2|35}} and the study of handwriting, among other things.{{book ref|sa2|4}} Rushu is also a courageous person that is willing to risk her safety for her studies, as evidenced by her desire to ride on the fabrial parapet as it ascended.{{book ref|sa2|35}}▼
== History ==
Rushu also later questioned why [[Shardblade]]s can be summoned or dismissed even if the gemstone on their hilt has gone dun.{{book ref|sa2|67}} She spent several weeks in contact with the ardents in [[Kharbranth]] via one of the [[Tashikk]]i relay stations to do some research in the [[Palanaeum]] on the subject. They reported to Rushu that they had found accounts that the Blades initially were not able to be summoned or dismissed until ornamental gemstones were added to their hilts. They also found stories of the hilts actually changing shape to accept the gemstones. This knowledge that Rushu provided was a breakthrough for artifabrians, helping them to realize that the only function of the gemstone was to aid in bonding the Blade, it was not part of a fabrial that made the sword supernaturally light and sharp.
