m (→‎Known Shards: Fixed up an alphabetical order for my OCD.)
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,. thoughWhile his Shard's intent is currently uncomfiredunconfirmed 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.
