A '''fabrial''' is a [[Stormlight]]-powered mechanical device that uses [[spren]] captured in gemstones to perform a task. A person who creates or designs fabrials is called an '''artifabrian'''.{{book ref|sa1|part=ars}}
A '''fabrial''' is a type of mechanical device, powered by [[Stormlight]] that uses [[spren]] captured in gemstones to perform a variety of tasks.{{book ref|sa1|part=ars}} The types of spren that can be captured in a gem depend on the gem's type and color, implying that there are "thousands of possible combinations" of fabrials that can be made.{{file ref|Navani1.jpg|text=Navani's Notebook: One}} A fabrial-gem's power can be determined by the invisible pattern of Stormlight that gets filtered through the gemstone.{{file ref|Navani2.jpg|text=Navani's Notebook: Two}} These fabrial-gems are encased in a wire frame, but it is not known whether this has an effect on the fabrial.

Any [[Surge]] can be replicated by fabrial science.{{wob ref|3013}} However, in the present day, fabrials that use Surges are extremely rare, and most of them date back to the era of the [[Knights Radiant]].
 
In contrast to [[Surgebinding]] or [[Old Magic]], most fabrials can be operated by anyone, as long as they know how to do so (the only exception being the [[Oathgate]]s, which require a Radiant to activate, although that might be a security measure rather than a crucial design element).{{book ref|sa2|86}} Some, like heatrials, are even capable of functioning without human input.{{book ref|sa2|4}}

== History ==
During the [[Heraldic Epochs]], the Radiants[[Knights hadRadiant]] accessknew how to knowledge ofcreate [[Surge]] fabrials, including [[Soulcaster]]s, healing fabrials, and [[Oathgate]]s. They'reTheir knowledge of non-Surge fabrials, which the modern fabrial science concerns itself with, was notfar asless advanced asthan modernthat of the current scholars,.{{book ref|sa3|96}} thoughSome theyprinciples, didhowever, havewere someknown knowledge.even Thethen: among others, the lifts in [[Urithiru]] were created with conjoining fabrials and gears.{{book ref|sa3|24}} With the fall of the Radiants, knowledge of most fabrials was lost, with Soulcasters as the major exception. TheseOver stories eventually got exaggerated into people believingtime, the Radiantsstories hadof moreRadiant fabrialfabrials technologybecame thanvastly they did.{{book ref|sa3|96}} Modern advances in fabrial technology only picked up fairly recentlyexaggerated, with [[Navani]]many aspeople abelieving particularlythat importantthey patronwere offar research.more Most research occurs in the eastern nations of [[Alethkar]]numerous, and [[Jahmuch Keved]].more [[Half-shard]]sadvanced, anthan importantwhat breakthroughmodern inscience fabrialhas research, were perfected in 1173created.{{book ref|sa1sa3|2296}}
 
While the fabrials were known for centuries, it was only recently that the pace of fabrial inventions picked up, with creations such as the heating fabrials and [[spanreed]]s being only a few decades old at most. Most research occurs in the eastern nations of [[Alethkar]] and [[Jah Keved]], with [[Navani Kholin]] as a particularly important patron. [[Half-shard]]s, an important breakthrough in fabrial research that attempts to mimic [[Shardplate]], were only perfected in 1173, at the tail end of the [[Era of Solitude]].{{book ref|sa1|22}}
▲== Creation ==
Creating modern fabrials requires trapping the proper type of spren in a gemstone cut for that purpose.{{book ref|sa3|33}} To trap the spren, artifabrians lure it into a gemstone with something it loves and knows well. Once it is lured into the gem, the spren cannot easily escape.{{book ref|sa3}} Once trapped in a gem, spren respond to stimuli in consistent and predictable ways. The metal frame surrounding the gem creates the stimuli the spren react to. For example, pressing metal against a flamespren in a ruby increases and decreases heat.{{book ref|sa3|33}} Multiple fabrial gems can be placed inside a single wire frame, which lets them work together in creating results. The [[emotion bracelet]], for example, has ten gems.{{file ref|Navani2.jpg|text=Navani's Notebook: Two}} ▼
 
== Creation and Functioning ==
How the ancient surge fabrials were created is not known, but it is likely a different method from modern fabrials. Ancient Soulcasters require a request for aid not seen in modern fabrials.{{book ref|sa3|i|4}} They still do involve spren being bound to gemstones in some way. Two large spren can be seen guarding and controlling the Oathgates in Shadesmar.{{book ref|sa3|116}} [[Odium]] tells the [[Fused]] that the Oathgate can be rebuilt if the building is destroyed but the gemstones are recovered and the spren are not compromised.{{book ref|sa3|117}}▼

== Types ==
{{for|:Category: Fabrials| a full listing of known fabrial- machine designs}}
Modern artifabrians divide the fabrials they design amonginto five groups across three categories. The fabrials they create are all the result of scientific research.{{book ref|sa1|part=ars}} Ancient fabrials, including Surge fabrials, do not fit into these categories and are categorizedgrouped seperately.
 
=== Altering fabrials ===
Appropriately named, altering fabrials qualitatively alter the property or attribute they target. Well-known examples include altering the temperature of an object or an area and enhancing or dampening the sensation of pain, though artifabrians believe there is potential for even greater types of fabrials in this category.{{book ref|sa1|part=ars}}
 
;Augmenters: Altering fabrials that increase or enhance an attribute are known as augmenters. They work best with forces, emotions or sensations.{{book ref|sa1|part=ars}} [[Half-shard]]s and [[Grandbow]]s are examples of augmenters that increase durability.{{book ref|sa1|part=ars}}{{book ref|sa1|12}} There are also heating fabrials that generate heat, sometimes called warmers or heatrials.{{book ref|sa1|15}} sometimes called warmers{{book ref|sa3|62}} or heatrials.{{book ref|sa3|100}} Painrials that enhance the feeling of pain also fall under this category.{{book ref|sa3|118}}
;Diminishers: Diminishers act as opposites of augmenters, decreasing the magnitude of their targeted trait. In general they operate in a similar manner to augmenters, with similar restrictions.{{book ref|sa1|part=ars}} [[Painrial]]s that decrease pain are a type of diminisher,{{book ref|sa1|60}} though the term can also be used to describe a pain augmenter.{{book ref|sa3|118}}▼

=== Pairing fabrials ===
Pairing fabrials are, as the name suggests, created in pairs that can move in parallel, or the opposite, over great distances. This category was a recent discovery during the [[War of Reckoning]].{{book ref|sa1|part=ars}} Force is conserved between each pair of fabrials., Theand the force required to move one is equivalent toone required for moving both. Despite limitations in how far the fabrials can be separated and still work, which is affected(dictated by certain processes during their manufacture), conjectures about possible applications are being discussed.{{book ref|sa1|part=ars}}
 
;Conjoiners: Conjoiners are created from infused rubies which are split in half. The two halves would then be able to exhibit parallel movements over large distances. [[Spanreed]]s are the most widespread example of conjoiner, linking two pens and allowing for long-distance comunications.{{book ref|sa1|28}}{{book ref|sa1|part=ars}}

;Reversers: Reversers are created in a similar manner to conjoiners, using an amethyst instead of a ruby. The two halves are then able to exhibit equal, but opposite reactions; lifting one would cause the other to be lowered.{{book ref|sa1|part=ars}}
 
=== Warning fabrials ===
[[File: Navani2.jpg|thumb|An excerpt from Navani's Notebook depicting an Emotion Bracelet and examples of stormlight patterns]]
Warning fabrials detect things and give notice to the user. Their range depends on the the amount of Stormlight infused into its fabrial-gem.{{book ref|sa1|part=ars}}
 
;Alerters: Alerters areuse ableheliodors to detect the presence of objects, feelings, sensations, or phenomenonphenomena, and warn the user. Alerters utilize heliodors in their design. There are alerters which can detect approaching people, which are able towhile excludeexcluding certain peoplepersons from detection.{{book ref|sa1|part=ars}} The [[Emotion bracelet]] is an alerter able to detect different emotions.{{file ref|Navani2.jpg|text=Navani's Notebook: Two}}
 
===Surge Fabrials===
These are fabrials that are able to manipulate Surges, replicating the effects of [[Surgebinding]] and [[Voidbinding]].{{wob ref|3013}}{{wob ref|7029}}
 
;Soulcasters[[Soulcaster]]s: These fabrials mimic the the Radiant ability of [[Soulcasting]].{{book ref|sa1|72}} A soulcaster-fabrial consists of two rings and a bracelet connected by chains which hold a group of three gemstones across the back of the hand. Most are only able to effect small, singular changes, such as turning stone into water., while Aboutabout one in ten can effect any change.{{book ref|sa1|5}} They can be activated by tapping one of the three gemstones when holding the hand against what is to be changed.{{book ref|sa1|42}} They manipulate the Surge of Transformation.
;Regrowth: A female [[Stoneward]] possessed what appears to be a fabrial constructed from a large topaz and heliodor that was able to "regrow" and repair injuries.{{book ref|sa1|19}} It manipulated the Surge of Growth.
 
;Oathgates: These fabrials manipulate the Surge of Transportation. There are hints that the [[Oathgate]]s were responsible for the near-instantaneous travel possible during the Heraldic Epochs and were one of the only ways to reach [[Urithiru]]. They could only be activated by living [[Shardblade]]s, as wielded by the [[Knights Radiant]].{{book ref|wor|86}} Transportation of more than one person through the gates required use of more Stormlight for the ten gemstone lanterns within.{{book ref|wor|87}}▼
;Regrowth fabrial: Ancient Radiants possessed fabrials constructed from a large topaz and heliodor that were able to "regrow" and repair injuries through manipulating the Surge of [[Progression]].{{book ref|sa1|19}} In the present day, they have been lost; however, the [[Herald]] [[Nale]] possesses one capable of bringing someone back even from the brink of death.{{book ref|sa2|88}}

===Possible Fabrials===
;Shardplate: [[Shardplate]] is occasionally referred to as a fabrial,. itIt's isunknown not known ifwhether this is accurate, however, sinceas Shardplate appears to operate in a different manner.
 
;Wristwatch: The wristwatch that [[Dalinar]] receives from [[Navani]] might be a fabrial, although it might as well operate purely mechanically. It's also equipped with a diminisher painrial, while Navani's own version has a switch that allows it to turn into an augmenter, for self-defense.{{book ref|sa3|16}}{{book ref|sa3|117}}
 
;Gemstone column: There is a column of gemstones in [[Urithiru]]'s lower level, the purpose of which remains unknown. [[Renarin]] speculates that it might be a fabrial allowing the city to operate properly, although if so, it appears to be non-functional.{{book ref|sa3|29}}
Theoretically a fabrial could be used to detect emotional [[Allomancy]].{{wob ref|11576}}▼
 
== Trivia ==
* It is possible for synthetic gemstones to be used in fabrials.{{wob ref|2702}}
▲* Theoretically, a fabrial could be used to detect emotional [[Allomancy]].{{wob ref|11576}}
* The term "fabrial" will, eventually, come to be used for all magic-based mechanical devices in the [[Cosmere]], such as the mechanism that picks [[Elantrian]]s.{{wob ref|8621}}
* Fabrials are one of very few known magic system in the Cosmere that do not require the user to be [[Investiture|Invested]] themselves or meet certain prerequisites (such as being born in a particular place, as is the case for most [[Sel]]ish magics), the only other being [[unsealed metalminds]] of [[Scadrial]].
