'''BioChromatic Breath''', also known simply as '''Breath''', is the power of life on [[Nalthis]]. Every living being is born with a certain BioChromatic Investiture.<ref>
==BioChroma and Awakening==
Spontaneous Sentient BioChromatic Manifestations in a Deceased Host, also known as the [[Returned]], are the only known natural BioChromatic entity. They retain sentience after being Returned (by [[Endowment]]) following death, and are endowed with a divine Breath. Returned are able to Awaken normally using any Breaths on top of their divine Breath, but giving away the divine Breath results in death.
The '''divine Breath''', a single powerful Breath that grants the powers of the first five Heightenings, is a [[Splinter]] of [[Endowment]]. Giving away the divine Breath to another person will instantly heal that person, at the cost of the life of the Returned.<ref>
===Type II===
Type III objects can take a great deal of Breaths, often over one hundred, to create. However, since the object being Awakened is far from being alive, the Breath can be recovered afterwards. For this reason, much more is known about the Commands to Awaken Type III entities.
Someone who has reached the Ninth Heightening is able to Awaken things like stone or steel, which were never alive.<ref>
===Type IV===
==Drab==
A human without a single Breath is known as a '''Drab'''. Without Breath, colors lose their vibrancy and they are more prone to depression and sickness. The latter stems from the fact that Breath acts as a sort of magical booster for the immune system, and thus the body doesn't need to build up immunity.<ref>
