== Astronomy ==
In physical space, the Scadrian system appears to be the closest to [[Rosharan System | Roshar]]. Its star is part of the "Awakener" constellation.{{file ref|Cosmere constellation map.jpg|Cosmere constellation map}} The Scadrian [[Cognitive Realm]] is known as [[Expanse of the Vapors]], and can be accessed from [[Roshar]]. It is close enough to [[Threnody | Threnodian]] Cognitive Realm that [[Shade]]s appearing at its borders are a legitimate concern.{{msh ref|5|2}}
== Inhabitants ==
The inhabitants of Scadrial were created by Ruin and Preservation in the image of [[Yolen | Yolish]] humans.{{au ref|scadrian}} The [[Final Empire]] saw the creation of two additional species - the shapeshifting [[kandra]] and near-mindless [[koloss]] - through Shardic intervention and the use of [[Hemalurgy]] on humans. Following the [[Catacendre]], the koloss became a true breeding race, the koloss-blooded.{{book ref|mb4|1}}
== History ==
The planet of Scadrial did not exist prior to the [[Shattering]]. The Shards of [[Preservation]] and [[Ruin]] decided to create the planet from scratch, under the stipulation that Ruin would later be allowed to destroy it. However, Preservation betrayed Ruin, trapping him in the [[Well of Ascension]], one of Scadrial's two [[Perpendicularity | Perpendicularities]], to prevent the destruction, at the cost of his own mind and a significant chunk of his power.
At some point, a [[Sel | Selish]] organization called the [[Ire]] set up a base in the Scadrian Cognitive Realm, intending to claim the Shard once its holder was dead.{{msh ref|5|2}}
Over centuries, several people have held the power of the Well of Ascension. A number of civillizations have developed during that period, and the technological advancement has almost reached the Steam Age. The penultimate of those holders was [[Rashek]], who moved the planet closer to the sun in an attempt to burn away the [[Deepness]] while holding the power, and folded all the existing states into the [[Final Empire]] under his rule. The last holder, [[Vin]], chose to release the power - releasing Ruin as well - due to the Shard's misdirection. The following events saw Ruin and Preservation merged into [[Harmony]], who restored the system to its previous orbit and rejuvenated the land in an event known as the Catacendre.
While the civillization on Scadrial has since recovered from this ordeal, in recent years the system appears to be invaded by an unknown power.{{book ref|mb6|28}}
