As [[Splinter]]s of a [[Shard]] of [[Adonalsium]], seons are a sapient form of [[Investiture]] and possess several magical qualities. They are immortal.{{wob ref|3885}} They generate their own light and have control over their brightness, to the point that they can become nearly invisible.{{book ref|Elantris|32}} They move by floating and seem to be able to change their speed and altitude quickly.{{book ref|Elantris|32}} They are able to mimic human speech and mannerisms, which they may have perfected over time.{{book ref|Elantris|5}} Their senses are superior to those of humans.{{book ref|Elantris|32}} They have an innate sense of direction and can point the way to any place they have ever been.{{book ref|Elantris|32}}{{book ref|Elantris|62}} They cannot be harmed by conventional means.{{wob ref|7439}}
They are able to link to each other over long distances to allow their masters to communicate instantly. Seons seem to function no differently in the Cognitive Realm and is one of the few ways to allow instantaneous contact between the [[Physical Realm]] and [[Cognitive Realm]].{{book ref|sa4|115}} They can temporarily transform into a three-dimensional image of the person speaking on the other end of the link.{{book ref|Elantris|2}}{{book ref|Elantris|12}} The image shows only the person's features and not anything else in their surroundings.{{book ref|Elantris|2}} It is not clear if they can transform for any other purpose.
Although [[Sel]]ish magic generally does not function properly away from Sel,{{wob ref|6164}} seons are capable of traveling to another planet.{{wob ref|736}} Their ability to leave the planet is somehow related to the unusual properties of Investiture on Sel, and does not necessarily apply to similar magical beings.{{wob ref|14522}} The [[Ghostbloods]] were able to bring at least two seons to [[Roshar]], including [[Ala]].{{book ref|sa4|115}}
