Dazewater is a liquid that is used to anesthetize patients during surgery on Roshar during the Era of Solitude.[1]
Properties
Dazewater is a very expensive clear liquid.[1] In order to put a patient under, dazewater is poured onto a rag or bandage and then pressed to the patient's face, over their mouth and nose. When the patient breathes it in, pain is lessened and the patient becomes nonsensical, speaking gibberish and grinning.
Dazewater is so potent that the surgeon who applies it has to hold his breath in order to avoid breathing it in himself.[1] In order to dispose of the dazewater, the rag it is soaked in has to be burned. The heat negates the dazewater, causing it to steam off the cloth. Dazewater can also be used to ease a person's pain as he dies.
History
Lirin had Kaladin administer dazewater to Citylord Roshone and his son Rillir after they returned from their whitespine hunt with serious injuries.[1]
During the invasion of Urithiru an ardent theorized, incorrectly, that a dazewater leak was causing the Radiants to lose consciousness.[2]
