She is known widely as a brilliant scholar and for her denunciation of [[Vorinism]].{{book ref|sa1|3}} She is a member of the [[Veristitalian]]s, an order of historians dedicated to reconstructing unbiased and factual accounts of the past in order to better understand the present.{{book ref|sa1|28}} She
== Appearance and Personality ==
During their days sailing, Shallan occasionally asked Jasnah about the Ghostbloods, but she claimed to know very little of them beyond the fact that they wanted her research, and were willing to kill for it. Jasnah contacted Navani via spanreed to ask whether Shallan's Soulcaster could be fixed. She also requested Navani arrange a betrothal between [[Adolin Kholin|Adolin]] and Shallan. Navani answered positively to both. She also arranged a relatively small amount of money to be sent to the [[House Davar|Davar family]]. It was on the ship that she explained the nature of Shadesmar and the spren to Shallan at length, showing a good understanding of the [[Realmatic Theory]]. She claimed that meeting was not an accident, that the spren had guided Shallan to her, and that the old ways were returning because spren sensed an impending danger and were trying to preserve themselves. Jasnah also explained about the perception of power.
Jasnah was seemingly murdered by either the Ghostbloods or mercenaries working for [[Tyn]] on board after being stabbed through the heart. However she was able to escape to Shadesmar using the [[Surgebinding#Transportation|Surge of Transportation]] where she was able to heal using Stormlight.{{tor ref|stormlight-archive-scene-after-words-of-radiance|text=Tor.com release of a scene set after Words of Radiance.|date=Aug 6th, 2014}} She re-appears following the summoning of the [[Everstorm]] to [[Hoid|Wit]]. She threatens him with a Shardblade, presumably her spren [[Ivory]]. She has gained knowledge through her journey through Shadesmar, most notably about the original [[Knights Radiant]].{{book ref|
After her travels through the Cognitive Realm she returns to [[Urithiru]] to resume her attempts at fighting off the Voidbringers. She attempts to rally the [[Vorin]] army, and takes part in meetings with current Rosharian leaders.
== Attributes and Abilities ==
=== Surgebinding ===
Jasnah has a Nahel bond with the [[spren]] [[Ivory]] which gives her the ability to Surgebind.{{book ref|sa2|3}} She has access to the [[Surge]]s of transformation and transportation.{{book ref|sa1|72}} As with all Surgebinders, she has superhuman speed, strength and healing when she holds Stormlight. She has demonstrated her ability to Soulcast multiple times,
;Transformation:
The Surge of Transformation allows Jasnah to use [[Soulcasting]]. Jasnah can use Soulcasting in various ways with great precision, ranging from burning letters into a page,{{book ref|sa1|33}} to transforming boulders into smoke,{{book ref|sa1|5}} and purifying Shallan's blood from a poison called backbreaker powder.{{book ref|sa1|50}} She also used Soulcasting as a very deadly weapon when she and Shallan were attacked by four footpads in Kharbranth and she Soulcast their assailants into fire, crystal and smoke, and even more dramatically when she fought Odium's forces in the [[Battle of Thaylen City]]. {{book ref|sa1|36}}{{book ref|sa3|118}} She has expressed that she is not very capable of Soulcasting organics and she was, indeed, unable to successfully Soulcast the strawberry jam that Kabsal brought to Shallan's hospital room.{{book ref|sa1|48}} Though to be fair, she had never tasted strawberry in her life before, which, without a doubt, contributed to her failure.{{book ref|sa1|72}}
She has also shown the ability to Soulcast multiple targets at distance. In this method of Soulcasting, bolts of Stormlight can be seen traveling towards the intended target. When Jasnah used this ability to transform two men into smoke, it caused the [[Polestone#Smokestone|smokestone]] she used to shatter, indicating that this method may use more Stormlight than regular Soulcasting.{{book ref|sa1|36}} This ability may be a specialized version of Soulcasting or a distinct ability resulting from manipulating a combination of the Surges of transformation and transportation.
Jasnah pretends to use a fake Soulcaster fabrial to disguise her Surgebinding abilities from the public.{{book ref|sa1|70}}
;Transportation:
Jasnah can transport herself into and out of the Realm of Shadesmar, along with at least her clothing and small physical objects. As of [[Words of Radiance]] it has not yet been revealed whether she can transport others into Shadesmar, or what the limits of her ability to transport objects is. She did retrieve Shallan from Shadesmar after her ward entered with not enough Stormlight available to return.{{book ref|sa1|70}}
