You begin bonding an inkspren, allowing you to breathe
in and use Stormlight. You might be aware of this nascent
bond, or you might use the powers subconsciously until you
get closer to speaking the First Ideal.
When you acquire this talent, you gain access to
Investiture, beginning with a maximum Investiture of
2 + your Awareness or Presence (whichever is higher).
You can now use the Breathe Stormlight, Enhance,
and Regenerate actions.
You can spot things in the Cognitive Realm up to a distance
equal to 3 × your spren
bond range. While you have
Investiture, you can identify
north and the direction to the
nearest settlement.
Second Ideal (Elsecaller)
Prerequisite: Level 4+; Speak the First Ideal
Activation: ★
You seek to deepen your Nahel bond with your inkspren by
speaking the Second Ideal.
You gain the goal “Speak the Second Ideal.” After you
complete this goal, you gain the following reward:
◆ You become Empowered until the end of that scene.
◆ Your Enhance action becomes more powerful.
While you have 1 Investiture or more, you can use
Enhance as ▷, and you don’t need to spend Investiture to use this action or maintain its effect.
Before you’re hit by an attack,
spend 1 Investiture and test
Transportation (DC equals
triggering attack). On failure,
the attack grazes. On success,
the attack misses.
Test Transportation (DC 15)
and spend 2 Investiture to
transport yourself to a space
within spren bond range.
Before you or an ally is hit by a
projectile, spend 1 Investiture
to test Transformation (DC
equals triggering attack). On
failure, the projectile grazes.
On success, the projectile
misses and becomes an

You seek to advance your Nahel bond even further by
speaking the Third Ideal.
You gain the goal “Speak the Third Ideal.” After you
complete this goal, you gain the following reward:
◆ You become Empowered until the end of that scene.
◆ You can summon your spren as a Radiant Shardblade (see chapter 7).
