'''Voidbinding''' is a prime manifestation of [[Investiture]] on [[Roshar]]. A Voidbinder can manipulate the [[Surge]]s{{wob ref|7029}}, much like a [[Surgebinder]], although the effects of the Surges aren't the same as Surgebinding. The Ars Arcanum refers to this as ten different "levels" of Voidbinding, and also states that the ten levels of Voidbinding may be different.{{book ref|sa1|part=ars}}
== Prerequisites ==
It is currently unknown how one becomes a Voidbinder under normal circumstances. The only known method is bonding with a [[Spren#Corrupted_Spren|corrupted]] [[Nahel bond|Nahel spren]], with the only example of this being [[Renarin Kholin]] and [[Glys]].{{wob ref|8461}} It is said, however, that Voidbinding typically originates with the [[Unmade]].{{wob ref|1640}}
Voidbinding can presumably use [[Voidlight]] as a fuel source, but this hasn't been observed so far. It is possible to fuel Voidbinding with [[Stormlight]], however, as [[Renarin Kholin]] does.{{wob ref|8461}}▼
== Mythology ==
One of the most common powers associated with Voidbinding is prophecy and foresight.{{book ref|twok|18}}{{wob ref|8904}} According to the [[ardent]]s, even the [[Herald]]s denounced its use. Whether or not this is true or a myth
The Vorin reluctance to guess the future led to the rise of games like breakneck, that don't require directly guessing the future.{{book ref|twok|i|6}}

== Abilities ==
=== Illumination ===
The Surge of [[Illumination]], when Voidbound, appears to involve futuresight, as with [[Renarin Kholin|Renarin's]] visions. This is likely the reason Voidbinding is often associated with prophecy and foresight.
=== Other ===
{{theory}}
There is an ability displayed by one of the [[Fused]] at [[Kholinar]] which has yet to be confirmed to any one Surge, either Voidish or otherwise.
Some speculate the [[Black sphere|sphere]] [[Szeth]] takes from [[Gavilar]] in the prologue is related to Voidbinding.
It is currently unknown whether the [[Fused]] have access to Voidbinding or [[Surgebinding]]. The abilities seen so far are typical of Surgebinding, but that doesn't mean that there aren't Voidbinding Fused, or that the Fused we've seen can't access Voidbinding. Alternatively, the Fused could be using a different system entirely.
