== Appearance ==
The Dor often shows its presence through some sort of bright glowing, whether through Seons, Aons, the twists of the Dakhor bones,
== Composition & Nature ==
The Dor is a mass of plasma-like substance{{wob ref|6852}} in the [[Cognitive Realm]], a large amount of power left behind after [[Odium]] visited Sel.{{au ref|selish}}{{wob ref|4129}} It is the remnant of the combined powers of Devotion and Dominion after the Shards were Splintered.{{wob ref|2787}}{{wob ref|1533}} The Dor exists in the Cognitive Realm and is very dangerous, appearing as a large source of mindless, uncontrolled power.{{au ref|selish}} Due to being in the Cognitive Realm it has attained rudimentary emotions.{{wob ref|9708}} Furthermore, this has shaped the nature of the the magic systems, making them very dependent upon location, geography, [[Intent]] and perception, far more so then in other systems.{{au ref|selish}}
This geographic limitation can be bypassed by carrying purified Dor to other locations.{{book ref|mb7|40}}{{book ref|mb7|42}}
The programming-esque way Investiture is drawn from the Dor is the result of the fact that its power is trapped in the Cognitive Realm, as well as the personalities of the original Vessels of [[Devotion]] and [[Dominion]] and the nature of Sel's [[focus]]: forms.{{wob ref|4249}} Those that use the Dor can sense when others are using it.{{book ref|Elantris|56}}
