Vasher was born on Nalthis,{{qawob ref|1114|22768}} but nothing is known about his natural life. Upon being returned, the [[Cult of the Returned]] named him "Warbreaker the Peaceful."
 
=== Five Scholars ===
== Powers & Abilities ==
=== [[Returned]] ===
Vasher was one of the first [[Returned]]{{cite}}, he has a Divine Breath; however, over the years he has developed abilities unique from other Returned. He is capable of altering his appearance, including altering his height as well as removing the Returned natural glow. Because he possesses a Divine Breath he automatically has the Fifth Heightening. In addition he also has extended life and agelessness. Sources of investiture other than Breaths, such as [[Stormlight]], can sustain Vasher.{{cite}}
 
Vasher is also able to use other forms of [[Investiture]] to sustain himself, including [[Stormlight]].{{wob ref|6177}} Though this method doesn't allow him access to [[Surgebinding]].{{wob ref|5727}} The method he uses involves the gap in his [[spiritweb]] left by his [[Divine Breath]].{{wob ref|2912}}
 
=== [[Awakening]] ===
Vasher is one of the greatest Awakeners to ever live. Having been alive for as long as he has, as well as dedicating large amounts of his life to study and experimentation, Vasher has extensive knowledge of Awakening. Vasher can issue highly advanced commands to aid in combat, mobility, or espionage. He often does this using the minimum amount of [[Breaths]] required, as he knows exactly how much is needed. Vasher has also developed innovations in the application of Breaths. He created [[Kalad's Phantoms]], a near-unstoppable army of Lifeless stone soldiers. He is also one of two people who know how to create sentient inanimate objects, having created [[Nightblood]], an extremely powerful sword.
