'''Surgebinding''' is a prime manifestation of [[Investiture]] on [[Roshar]]. Surgebinders can manipulate ten fundamental forces locally known as [[Surge]]s. The extent to which a Surgebinder can use these forces depends on the way the Surgebinder acquired powers. They can use either one Surge, a naturally occuring pair of Surges or in exceptional cases all ten Surges.
 
Each Fused has access to one Surge which Odium grants them. The grant is permanent and persists across reincarnations. They exist in nine different varieties called brands, each associated with a Surge. The missing tenth Surge is speculated to be [[Tension]].
 
==== Yelig-Narnar ====
{{for|Yelig-Narnar}}
 
[[Yelig-Narnar]] is one of the [[Unmade]]. He grants control over all ten Surges and is bonded by swallowing a gemstone housing him.

=== Light ===
Surgebinding is powered by [[Light]] as a fuel source. Which type of [[Light]] a Surgebinder can use depends on his person and other unknown factors. It can be taken from external stores, the Surgebinder's reserves or directly from an external source. It is theoretically possible to fuel Surgebinding with other forms of [[Investiture]], like [[BioChromatic Breath]].{{wob ref|3233}} The different types of Surgebinders are traditionally associated with different [[Light]]s. The [[Fused]] use [[Voidlight]], while Knights Radiant and wielders of [[HonorbladesHonorblade]]s use [[Stormlight]] it is unclear whether differences in the use of Surges observed in those groups arise from innate differences or use of different fuels. [[Lift]] is a special case of a [[Knight Radiant]] using [[Lifelight]].
