| − | '''Worldhopping''' is an ability which is used to move from place to place in the [[Physical Realm]]. Anyone who Worldhops can go to different planets, as well as move about on the planet they're already on. So far this ability is only confirmed to be able to be used by those with access to certain manifestations of [[Investiture]]. (note that worldhopping is not instantaneous movement akin to teleportation, a quote from brandon sanderson: (paraphrased) if you plan to worldhop often, a longer life expectancy is useful) |

| − | {{theory}} |
||
| − | Worldhopping is possible in several ways: the first is to travel via space (since all the cosmere is in a dwarf galaxy) using Allomancy and Feruchemy or AonDor (as it is used at the end of Elantris to fast travel) the other is to travel to [[Shadesmar]] using some ability of their magic system. Only one magic system, [[Surgebinding]], has been confirmed to allow access to Shadesmar. However all Shardworlds have their own ways of accessing Shadesmar.{{qa ref|585|8}} Since Galladon and Demoux are somehow able to Worldhop, it is likely that [[AonDor]] and [[Allomancy]] or one of the other [[Metallic Arts]] allows access to Shadesmar. This is further confirmed by the fact that someone from [[Scadrial]] accessing Shadesmar is a plot point for a future book.{{qa ref|700|6}} |
||
| − | |||
| − | Once a person is in Shadesmar, provided they have the knowledge of how to do so, they can Worldhop wherever they want.{{17s ref|post|42113}} The exact process for Worldhopping is unknown, beyond the fact that it requires a manipulation of Shadesmar.{{qa ref|585|8}} It is possible that in the Cognitive Realm, simply visualizing yourself as somewhere else is enough to physically move you there. At some point in Sel's distant past, [[Odium]] killed the [[Vessel]]s of both Devotion and Dominion and Splintered the two Shards.{{article ref|The Letter}} The collective power of the Splintered Shards became somehow trapped in the [[Cognitive Realm]], and is now what Selish people call the [[Dor]].{{book ref|arcanum unbounded}} |
||
| − | |||
| − | Because of this, while travel to Sel is possible via the Cognitive Realm (for example, one can use a [[Perpendicularity]] that exists in the form of [[The Lake|a pool of sapphire-colored liquid]] near Elantris), the raging uncontrolled power of the Dor makes travel in that manner "really tough"{{qa ref|977|11}}{{17s ref|post|408044}}. |
