This article is about the Rosharan region of the Cognitive Realm.
While "Shadesmar" is a [[Roshar]]-specific word{{qa ref|1086|17|Is there a difference between Shadesmar and the Cognitive Realm?|date=Mar 4th, 2014}}, Sanderson translates other worlds' names for the place to "Shadesmar" as well.{{qa ref|1108|16|Is Shadesmar a Roshar specific term?|date=Mar 13th, 2014}}
 
Currently the only known travelers to Shadesmar are [[Hoid]], [[Shallan Davar]], [[Khriss]], [[Nazh]] and [[Jasnah Kholin]] (and [[Kelsier]] after he dies), it will become more prevalent in future books.{{qa ref|533|9|Stormlight Archives hints|date=Sep 16th, 2010}} It is possible that members of the [[Seventeenth Shard]] travel using Shadesmar.
 
The [[ardent]]s in Roshar are aware of Shadesmar, and have texts describing someone traveling there.{{book ref|sa1|i|8}}

== Appearance ==

Geographically, itRoshar appearsin tothe beCognitive aRealm reflectionappears like an inversion of [[Roshar]]the continent in the Physical Realm, with its inland seas corresponding exactly to the shape of the land of Roshar. The "seas" are made of tiny dark glass beads that represent objects that exist in the Physical Realm. When asked if this is the general rule, Sanderson said "there are places in Shadesmar that are different, and some are the same."{{qa ref|1108|17|ground/water inversion|date=Mar 13th, 2014}}
 
Living things manifest on Roshar's Cognitive Realm as flames. A flame vanishes when the person represented by it dies.
Areas where there is a lot of thinking (cognitive function) are expanded while areas without any thought are diminished. This allows a person to enter the cognitive realm and ''walk'' from the Shadesmar representation of one planet to that of another planet in a matter of days. The empty space between the planets in the physical realm creates barely any "space" in the cognitive realm due to the lack of thinking creatures in it.{{qa ref|1097|22|Whenever a planet has enough thinking life on it...it drops into Shadesmar|date=Dec 6th, 2014}}

The sky on Roshar's Shadesmar is black, with strange cloud formations and a small, cold sun. The land, which corresponds to bodies of water on the Physical Realm, appear to be made of obsidian. Trees made of crystal grow on this land.{{book ref|WoR|7}}
== Regions ==
 
The map of Shadesmar found in [[The Way of Kings]] includes several regions perpendicular to [[Roshar]], as well as the names of other Expanses. If you walk far enough in the direction of one of those expanses(often days), you can arrive on other worlds.{{17s ref|post|204063| ... but you can go to Shadesmar, walk in the directions where it says "The Realm of the Vapors" and it runs into Scadrial|date=2014-12-10}} The areas labeled are as follows:

== Uses ==
== RegionsSpren ==
Shadesmar can be visited by those with an inherent Soulcasting ability. On [[Roshar]], entrance is granted by beings that Jasnah calls a type of [[spren]]. They appear in The Way of Kings to Shallan Davar and [[Elhokar Kholin]], and one of these beings, called Cryptics is described by Shallan as
:''Main article:'' [[Spren]]
 
'''Spren''' are [[Splinter]]s that reside mainly on the Cognitive Realm of Roshar. Each spren represents an idea or concept, and are described as ideas that gained life.
 
There is great variety among spren, both in appearance and in cognitive levels. Some spren are intelligent enough to build their own civilizations and live on cities in Shadesmar, while others are more like animals.{{book ref|WoR|1}} Most of these spren appear and behave differently when they transition to the Physical Realm.
 
== Access and Use ==
The [[ardent]]s in Roshar are aware of Shadesmar{{book ref|sa1|i|8}}, and have used fabrials that allow them to [[Soulcast]] objects through it. There are also people whose bond with certain types of [[spren]] grants them access to Shadesmar. One type of such a spren, called a [[Cryptic]], is described by [[Shallan]] as

Another type of spren that give access to Shadesmar are [[Inkspren]]. These do not seem to require truths from the [[Elsecaller]]s that they are bonded to. Aside from Soulcasting, Elsecallers can also use the glass beads on Shadesmar to form various structures that can be used there. For example, [[Jasnah]] can create a raft out of Shadesmar beads that she could stand safely on.{{book ref|WoK|70}}
 
[[Stormlight]] (or an alternative source of [[Investiture]]) is needed{{book ref|WoK|70}},(or alternative source of investiture) in order to control objects in Shadesmar, as well as for [[soulcastingSoulcasting]]. Traveling there without sufficient stormlightStormlight is considered to be perilous.
