So far the only known characters to visit there are [[Hoid]], [[Shallan Davar]] and [[Jasnah Kholin]].
 
The [[ardent]]s in Roshar are aware of Shadesmar, and apparently have text describing someone traveling there.{{book ref|b|sa1|i|8}}
 
== Appearance ==
{{quote|... a place with a black sky and a strange, small white sun that hung on the horizon ... Flames hovered nearby ... Like the tips of candles floating in the air and moving with the wind ... An endless dark sea, except it wasn't wet. It was made of the small beads, an entire ocean of tiny glass spheres|Shallan Davar{{book ref|b|sa1|c|45}}}}
 
Geographically it appears to be a reflection of [[Roshar]], with its inland seas corresponding exactly to the shape of the land of Roshar.
Shadesmar can be visited by those with an inherent Soulcasting ability. Entrance to it 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 (unofficially called a [[truthspren]]) is described by Shallan as
 
{{quote|a figure with a sharp, angular symbol hovering above its collar instead of a head|Shallan Davar{{book ref|b|sa1|c|45}}}}
 
To be granted entrance to Shadesmar, the person wishing to go there must speak a truth about themselves to the truthspren. Whilst Shallan is in Shadesmar, a voice speaks to her and causes her to Soulcast. It is theorised that this voice belongs to the Cognitive aspect of the goblet she is Soulcasting.
 
Apparently{{book ref|b|WoK|c|70}}, you need Stormlight (or alternative source of power) in order to control objects in Shadesmar, as well as for [[soulcasting]]. Traveling there without sufficient stormlight is considered to be extremely risky.
 
This is not the only way of entering Shadesmar. There is a way to access Shadesmar on other worlds, though it is not clear how to do so.
