==== Nahel Bond ====
{{for|Nahel bond}}
The '''Nahel bond''' is a symbiotic relationship between humans and [[spren]], through which the human gains Surgebinding powers and the spren gains sapience in the [[Physical Realm]].{{book ref|sa2|17}} The spren choose the people they bond with according to the actions and personalities of those people.{{wob ref|6651}} There are ten types of spren that bond with humans—each granting access to two of the ten Surges, with overlap between them—and each of these types are attracted to different attributes in their bondmates.{{book ref|sa2|1}}
Once the bond is established, the spren is pulled into the Physical Realm, although they retain very little intelligence and memories and act almost like lesser spren until the bond grows stronger.{{book ref|sa2|3}} The strengthening of the bond is accomplished by the Surgebinder continuing to act in line with the attributes that attracted the spren in the first place, and swearing [[Immortal Words|oaths]] that are related to those attributes.{{book ref|sa1|67}} As the bond grows stronger, the spren regains their sapience, and the effectiveness of Stormlight for the Surgebinder increases. Once the bond is at sufficient strength, the spren can manifest as a [[Shardblade]],{{book ref|sa2|84}} and the eye color of the Surgebinder changes into the color their spren is associated with.{{book ref|sa2|87}}

* '''Lightweaving''': This ability creates visual and auditory illusions. The illusion is based upon not just what the Surgebinder imagines, but also desires to create, requiring both a mental picturing of and a Spiritual connection to the intended creation.{{book ref|sa2|part=ars}} Once the creation is shaped, the Surgebinder breathes out a cloud of [[Stormlight]] to form the illusion.{{book ref|sa2|7}} The illusion can be created anywhere, but requires a constant source of Stormlight, so the Surgebinder — or a being the Surgebinder is Spiritually linked to — needs to keep in proximity to it. Because the illusion automatically feeds off the Surgebinder, the glowing effect common to the Surgebinders as the Stormlight leaks out of their bodies does not happen, as excess Stormlight is instead fed to the illusion.{{book ref|sa2|60}} Unless the Surgebinder intentionally dissolves the apparition, it will stay active until they run out of Stormlight or
** Interactions with Yolish Lightweaving: Rosharan Lightweaving is much more restrictive than the earlier [[Yolish Lightweaving|Yolish variant]],{{book ref|sa2|45}} as it requires a spren and Stormlight to function.{{wob ref|8909}} Yolish Lightweaving, however, seems to function imperfectly in the current day,{{wob ref|9346}} and its users may need help from Rosharan Lightweavers to fully craft an illusion.{{book ref|sa3|82}} A Yolish Lightweaver is able to guide a Rosharan Lightweaver's power.{{wob ref|9346}} Gaining Rosharan Lightweaving allows for some supplemental ability with Yolish Lightweaving,{{wob ref|8473}} and could allow Yolish Lightweavers to overcome their difficulties, although further impacts or [[resonance]]s between the two are unknown.{{wob ref|8664}}{{wob ref|8473}}
