The shanay-im, or Heavenly Ones, are a Brand of Fused who can use the Surge of Gravitation.[1]
Abilities
The shanay-im are Fused who can manipulate the Surge of Gravitation. Fused of this brand can manipulate their own gravity without expending Voidlight, but must use it to heal themselves or to Lash things other than themselves. These abilities are similar to the Basic Lashing used by the Windrunners and Skybreaker.[1] Shanay-im are often seen manipulating the gravitation vector of both themselves and other bodies and objects, resulting in abilities such as flight, reduced weight, and sending their enemies flying off into the air. The Fused accelerate more slowly than Surgebinders when using Gravitation.[2] This is due to them expending less energy and does not have to do with the gravity of Braize.[3] Over a large span, Fused will go faster than Surgebinders.[4] Fused can only Lash themselves once.[4] These Fused are able to enter space, but cannot travel far, since they would require a large amount of Voidlight to heal due to the lack of air and pressure.[5]
Culture
Shanay-im usually wear extremely long robes, trailing behind them several feet. They utilize long lances suited for aerial combat, with aluminum coating to block Shardblades and a fabrial to drain Stormlight from the Radiant it pierces.
When fighting Windrunners, they hold an honorable tradition of one-to-one dueling. They raise their weapons to those they wish to duel, and engage upon consent from the Windrunners. The rest of their members float about and do not interfere with the duel. The Windrunners play along with the tradition, as the Windrunners have a smaller number and this prevents them from being ganged up on.[6] This tradition do not extend to normal soldiers.

Trivia
