Surgebinding is a manifestation of Investiture on Roshar. A Surgebinder can manipulate natural forces locally known as Surges. Each Surgebinder has access to two adjacent of the ten Surges shown in the Knights Radiant table.^{[Falta cita]} This results in three powers which can be used by Investing, or infusing as known locally, objects or people with Stormlight.

Prerequisites

Surgebinding is not innate to Rosharans. They gain the ability depending on their actions. It is thought the Divine Attributes in Ten Essences table determines if one becomes a Surgebinder as well as which Surges they can manipulate. These behaviors attract the attention of one of the ten spren that give access to Surgebinding. The spren and the Surgebinder, then, forms a Spiritual bond known as Nahel bond locally.^{[Falta cita]}

Which Surges the Surgebinder can manipulate depends on with what kind of spren he or she forms a Nahel bond.

Abilities

Basic Lashing

Gravity

Basic Lashing alters an object's or being's spiritual gravitational bond to the planet below, instead temporarily linking it to a different object or direction. It allows the Surgebinder to run up walls, send objects or people flying off into the air. Advance user of Basic Lashing can make himself or herself lighter by binding only a portion of his or her mass upward. Binding a quarter of one's mass upward effectively halves that person's weight. Similarly, it is possible to use multiple Basic Lashings to make a being's effective weight higher.

Reverse Lashing

Reverse Lashing creates a bubble around an object that imitates its spiritual link to the ground beneath it. In effect, this makes the infused object pull other objects towards itself. It is much harder for Reverse Lashing to affect objects touching the ground, where their link to the planet is strongest. Objects falling or in flight are the easiest to influence. Other objects can be affected, but the Stormlight and skill required are much more substantial. It is unknown whether this ability manipulates Gravity or a combination of Gravity and Atmospheric Pressure.

Full Lashing

Atmospheric Pressure

Full Lashing temporarily creates an extremely powerful bond between two objects. To use this ability, the Surgebinder infuses an object with Stormlight, then presses another object to it. Most object would break apart before the bond holding them together would.

Slicking

Friction

Slicking makes the Surgebinder temporarily frictionless. The Surgebinder can target specific parts of his or her body to use this ability. It allows the Surgebinder to ride the thinnest rope at speed, dance across rooftops or move through a battlefield like a ribbon on the wind. It is unknown whether external objects can be affected by Slicking or the ability requires objects constant touching to Surgebinder.

Growth

Growth

Growth accelerates organic growth to tremendous speeds. The Surgebinder can infuse the seeds to a plant with Stormlight and in seconds, it will become fully developed. It is unknown if this ability only works on plants.
