'''Awakening''' is the art of combining colorcolour, [[BioChromatic Breath]] ('''"Breath"'''), and an Awakening [[Command]] in order to animate an object, resulting in one of four types of [[BioChromatic_Breath#Types_of_BioChromatic_entities|BioChromatic entities]]. It is a manifestation of Investiture on [[Nalthis]] which was discovered approximately 400 years before the [[Pahn Kahl rebellion]].{{book ref|wb|32}}

The process of Awakening begins when an [[Awakener]] releases some of their stored Breath into an object through the use of a Command. While doing so, the Awakener must also be in physical contact with a source of colorcolour (e.g. a piece of dyed cloth). If the Command is valid and is correctly visualized in the Awakener's mind, then colorcolour is drained from the colorcolour source and the target object becomes '''Awakened'''. It then proceeds to carry out the Command.

* Finally, at the '''Tenth Heightening''' (~50000 Breaths), the Awakener gains the ability to drain more colorcolour from objects to fuel more powerful Awakenings, as well as the ability to issue Commands mentally.

== ColorColour as fuel ==

Awakening an object has the additional cost of draining the colorcolour of nearby objects. ColorColour appears to act as a fuel for Awakening. Objects drained of their colorcolour usually turn grey, although an Awakener who achieved [[Heightening#Tenth_Heightening|Perfect Invocation]] could drain objects more fully, turning them white.

An effective way to prevent an Awakener from using his art is removing all but grey or white objects in his vicinity. Black, although not commonly considered a colorcolour, is very effective as a source of fuel for Awakening.

In most cases, the colorcolour of living things cannot be used for Awakening. This is because the living soul interferes with the Awakening process. The colorcolour of things taken from living things, on the other hand, may be used.{{qa ref|982|1}} An [[Awakener]] can, for example, use spilled blood as a colorcolour source.
