{{anchor|Soulcasting}}
* '''Soulcasting''': This ability transforms any material into one of the Surgebinder's choice. To [[Soulcast]], the Surgebinder shifts their perception to see into the [[Cognitive Realm]], and communicates with the Cognitive aspect of the object they want to transform. This
** Surge Fabrial: A soulcaster [[fabrial]] is able to mimic the Radiant ability of Soulcasting.{{book ref|sa1|72}} Most are only able to effect small, singular changes, such as turning stone into water, while about one in ten can affect any change.{{book ref|sa1|5}} When Soulcasting, the fabrial draws Stormlight from the corresponding gemstone.
** Savantism: Long-term use of Soulcasting, whether via Surgebinding or a fabrial, can lead to the user becoming a [[savant]], transforming slowly into the essence they frequently transform other objects into.{{wob ref|1557}} The effects of savanthood are much less pronounced for Surgebinders compared to fabrial users, and can take a different path in their manifestation, due to the [[Nahel bond]].{{wob ref|8742}} This process is different from simply having transformed a portion of oneself accidentally.{{book ref|sa3|i|4}}
{{anchor|Elsecalling}}
* '''Elsecalling''': This ability allows the Surgebinder to travel between the [[Cognitive Realm|Cognitive]] and [[Physical Realm]]s by creating a miniature [[perpendicularity]].{{wob ref|1525}} A circular wall of [[Stormlight]] can be seen briefly at the target location before the Surgebinder arrives.{{book ref|sa2|epilogue}} The Surgebinder can also bring other beings and objects with them while transporting themselves.{{epigraph ref|sa2|53}} This allows many Surgebinders with Transportation the ability to [[worldhop]].{{wob ref|655}} However, it's much harder to leave the [[Cognitive Realm]] than it is to enter it,
** Surge Fabrial: [[Oathgates]] are able to mimic the Radiant ability of Transportation. They allow the user to transport anything on top of their platform and in their control chamber between Oathgates in an instant. However, as far as is known, they function in pairs - an Oathgate in [[Urithiru]] only connects to one Oathgate outside, and the Oathgate outside only connects to one Oathgate in Urithiru. They can only be activated by [[Honorblade]]s or living [[Shardblade]]s.{{book ref|sa2|86}} Transportation of more than one person through them requires use of more Stormlight.{{book ref|sa2|87}}
