Question

Posted

While Sixth of the Dusk, I noticed that many of the creatures on Patji have a sort of "mind sense", that allows them to track and detect you by your mental signature. The Aviar seems to naturally be able to share their powers with someone they've bonded, but those powers can be taken by hemalurgy. Even so, it's apparently more complicated than taking most other invested arts, since the aviar has power over the bond, similar to radiant spren. But what if you try to spike powers out of the other creatures of Patji? They (presumably) don't rely on a bond to generate their powers, so you could take those with hemalurgy no problem, right? Although, do they even have the same range of abilities, or are aviar simply superior to them in this way? And one last thing about this concerning hemalurgy, does this mind sense count as an invested power, like allomantic powers, or is it an innate attribute, like strength or intelligence?

It should be possible to Hemalurgically steal those. Hemalurgy can steal innate attributes the same as Invested Arts so it shouldn't be a problem either way (the chart doesn't show every bindpoint, only the ones used for Inquisitors). I would say it's less of a magic system, more of a magic interacting with nature situation. It does use Realmatics and Investiture, everything does, but it doesn't actively change anything of nature, it's a part of it.

I think it's a matter of target and application of the Spike. Stealing the power from the bonded Human is easy for the Aviar to break.  Stealing it from them directly might be harder to integrate into a human Spiritweb (without side effects?).  Or you might be able to target the parasitic worm granting abilities to the Aviar in the first place.  I wonder if you'd get teh intelligence bump that they do on top of the Power, of if it's just a side effect of an Animal being Invested.
