=== Herald and Radiant ===▼

{{for|Herald#Abilities|a more in-depth description of general Heraldic powers}}▼

As a [[Herald]] of the [[Almighty]], Nale is functionally immortal. He does not appear to age while on [[Roshar]]; and when he does die, he is transported to [[Braize]], where he can return to when he wishes, though this comes with the risk of releasing another [[Desolation]]. He also has access to an [[Honorblade]], and is in fact the only Herald to have recovered his after the [[Aharietiam]].{{book ref|sa3|106}} The Honorblade makes him a [[Surgebinder]], granting him powers over the [[Surge]]s of [[Division]] and [[Gravitation]].{{book ref|sa2|i|9}}{{book ref|sa3|121}}▼

Apart from his powers as a Herald, Nale has formed a [[Nahel bond]] with a [[highspren]], making him a [[Skybreaker]]. He's the only Skybreaker in centuries to have reached the Fifth Ideal, and has access to a living [[Shardblade]], giving him two Blades in total.{{book ref|sa3|90}}{{book ref|sa3|106}} It's unknown if his double bond -- with the Honorblade and the [[spren]] -- enhances his Surgebinding abilities in any way. However, he does have some sort of "hack" that lets him acquire [[Stormlight]] where others cannot, though it might be due to his nature as a Herald.{{wob ref|3398}}▼

While he has the power, until the [[True Desolation]], he seems to avoid using it in the presence of others, likely to keep a low profile.{{book ref|sa2|i|9}}▼

=== Resources ===▼

Nale is the head of the Order of Skybreakers, with many of its members sworn to follow him directly by their Third Ideal. This provides him with a small, but powerful fighting force willing to obey his every command. They seem to follow him unquestioningly, even when he turns against humanity.{{book ref|sa3|117}} Some of them are as high as the Fourth Ideal, while others are merely squires, though all seem rather well-trained.{{book ref|sa3|90}}▼

Apart from the Skybreakers, Nale seems to have vast resources and connections. He has access to various rare items and creatures: he can acquire a [[larkin]] without apparent difficulty, has a [[Regrowth]] [[fabrial]] able to bring people back from the dead, and was even in possession of [[Nightblood]] for a while, having gotten his hands on it by means unknown.{{book ref|sa2|i|9}}{{book ref|sa2|88}} He keeps caches of food and supplies throughout the continent, though many of them are poorly-maintained.{{book ref|sa3|106}}▼

He seems well-connected in Western [[Roshar]]. He can track Lift over vast distances and easily get his hands on attire of local lawkeepers, as well as necessary paperwork for him to join them.{{book ref|sa2|i|9}} He's also fostered good relationships with most local governments, enough so that they're willing to grant him authority after he reveals himself and the Skybreakers to them.{{book ref|sa3|92}}▼
