== Attributes and Abilities ==
 
=== Dawnshard ===
When Sigzil was thirty-eight years old he was given a [[Dawnshard]] by [[Hoid]].{{book ref|tsm|11}}{{book ref|tsm|20}} This gave him enhancements in durability, strength, endurance, and healing.{{book ref|tsm|5}}{{book ref|tsm|1}} This has allowed him to form Connections to planets{{book ref|tsm|6}} though these abilities need some Investiture to function.{{book ref|tsm|1}} It also sets his appearance, including features like his hair length, to look as it did the moment he took the Dawnshard.{{book ref|TSMtsm|21}}
 
A side effect of holding and having held this Dawnshard is that Sigzil is unable to physically harm others, with his body locking up whenever he tries to attack. Sigzil comes to refer to this effect as his '''Torment''', though not all others affected this way would refer to it as such.{{wob ref|15596}} He is able to mitigate this using a [[sunheart]] he took from [[Canticle]], allowing him to fight as normal by pushing some of the unwanted Investiture into it.{{book ref|tsm|36}} This Investiture is then filtered and purified, allowing Sigzil to absorb it to fuel his abilities.{{book ref|tsm|37}}
 
=== Arrival on Canticle ===

With only fifteen hundred BEUs left he couldn’t form a strong enough [[Connection]] to the planet, leaving him unable to understand anyone around him.{{book ref|TSMtsm|1}}
 
Soon after he awoke he was spotted by two government officials, they tried speaking to him but he couldn’t understand them. Eventually they decided to simply chain him down with the rest, leaving him to die in the sunlight. Nomad resisted them, trying to fight them. Unfortunately his torment prevented him from touching them, and the action drew the attention of a [[Charred]]. He and Nomad fought, but eventually Nomad was overwhelmed when a second Charred showed up. After taking a hit to his side Nomad was left dazed, and the government officials chained him to the ground. While the Canticlites were firing up their engines Nomad summoned [[Auxiliary]] as a crowbar, breaking through the chain. He then made Auxiliary into a hook and chain, attaching it to one of the hoverbikes. It was at this point that the sunlight reached him, setting his skin aflame, he didn’t spend much time in the sunlight however, as he was immediately yanked out of the light by the hoverbike.{{book ref|TSMtsm|1}}
