It is noted that Sja-anat wants to be a god in her own right.{{book ref|sa4|i|2}} She is very deceptive, able to successfully trick Odium and aid the Radiants behind Odium's back,{{book ref|sa3|97}} as well as deceive him on her personal objectives, such as successfully sending an Enlightened true spren to Mraize by hiding them in a group of Enlightened windspren.{{book ref|sa4|i|2}} She is also independent and earnest; she does not want to be Odium's servant anymore and desperately wants Shallan to believe that she has defected from Odium.{{book ref|sa3|84}} Sja-anat also cares for her children, the spren that she has corrupted, and wants to find them a home, one that she would be able to share.{{book ref|sa3|85}}{{book ref|sa4|i|2}}

Sja-anat's touch has the ability to corrupt spren that she comes into contact with.{{book ref|sa3|77}} Sja-anat refers to this process as '''Enlightening'''.{{book ref|sa3|97}} Spren affected by Sja-anat begin to carry the taint of [[Odium]],{{book ref|sa3|116}} and in rare cases can even grant abilities associated with Odium's power,{{book ref|sa3|118}} though the extent of his influence on the affected spren is unknown. Corrupted spren take on noticeably different appearances, typically changed in coloration and shape
The lesser spren that Sja-anat corrupts are capable of serving as her spies{{book ref|sa2|4}} or delivering messages for her.{{book ref|sa3|97}} Messages sent from Sja-anat are spoken by the corrupted spren in Sja-anat's voice into the mind of the person to which they are sent. Sja-anat refers to the corrupted spren as her children.{{book ref|sa3|85}} In the past Sja-anat often corrupted lesser spren,{{book ref|sa3|77}}{{book ref|sa2|4}} but she has now displayed the ability to corrupt true spren,{{book ref|sa3|117}} such as spren capable of forming a Nahel bond like Glys, and the spren of the [[Oathgate]].{{book ref|sa3|97}} However, she does not usually Enlighten true spren without their consent.{{book ref|sa4|54}} Corrupted spren do not appear to be particularly dangerous, so it is unknown what impact Odium's influence has on the spren aside from their appearance. They work similarly to uncorrupted spren in [[fabrial]]s, although they were unaffected
