There are sixteen Shards{{epigraph ref\|TWoK\|11}}, and they are the most powerful known entities in the [[cosmere]]. They are related to many, if not all, magic systems, and for practical purposes, they are gods. All Shards started at an equal power level.{{17s ref\|post\|42116}} Nine Shards have thus far been mentioned in the novels, and an additional one by Brandon. They were either referenced by their Shard's name or its holder. Those known by intent are [[Ruin]], [[Preservation]], [[Honor]], [[Odium]], [[Cultivation]], [[Endowment]], [[Devotion]]{{qa ref\|715\|9}}, and [[Dominion]]{{17s ref\|topic\|1175}}. In addition, a person called [[Bavadin]] has been confirmed to hold (or have held) a Shard, though his Shard's intent is currently ~~unknown~~uncomfired within any books, it has been confirmed by Brandon in interviews to be [[Autonomy]]. The tenth shard that Brandon told us about just "wants to survive". It is unclear what the intent of this Shard is, as it could be Survival but also could be many other things. == Introduction == {{/row\|Odium \|Rayse \|Braize \|Stormlight \|{{qa ref\|700\|7}}{{qa ref\|428\|106}}\|}} {{/row\|Cultivation \| \|Roshar \|Stormlight \|{{qa ref\|692\|21}}{{qa ref\|428\|106}}\|}} {{/row\|~~<!--~~Autonomy ~~-->~~\|Bavadin ~~Bavadin~~\|Taldain \|White Sand \|{{qa ref\|727\|19}}{{qa ref\|428\|106}}\|}} \|} It is likely that this is a complete list of all the Shards for the published [[Shardworld]]s. Some worlds have more Shards than others.{{qa ref\|428\|59}} There is also a shard that doesn't inhabit any planet.{{qa ref\|1079\|1\|There is a shard that isn't on a planet\|date=Mar 5th, 2014}} The last seven Shards are unknown. Still, that leaves eight additional Shards whose direct influence have not been seen, and the only reference to any of them is that Bavadin is a Shardholder.{{qa ref\|700\|7}} The last seven Shards are unknown. == Forms and Subdivisions ==
