Heightening Chart

[ZahelOfTheWiki]

Recently I finished Warbreaker, and I loved the magic system, but was disappointed to find there was no visual Ars Arcana like we've gotten for most of the other magic systems. So, I made my own. I'm planning to make another one for the other aspects of awakening, but the there was so much info on the heightenings that it grew into its own page. Let me know what you guys think!

I like the color gradation and the little margin note at the bottom that resembles Nazh's notes in the Stormlight books.

Thanks! I like the idea that with a inter-shardworld economy, there is an economy of information, including the different uses of investiture.

Both of these look really cool!

[Wyndlerunner he/him]

Certainly magnificent! it also certainly fits within the trend of Nalthians being somewhat more scientific about Investiture.

I would love to see these in the Warbreaker leatherbound! They're that good!

This is awesome. Can I have permission to use these in my (Very rough) guide to investiture magic? @ZahelOfTheWiki

Yeah, sure! I'm also considering making posters on the other Cosmere magic systems in this sort of scholar/notes style, so stay tuned for that.

[overlord stick]

Thanks! I'll be on the watch for those!

[+Slowswift]

Dang, those are awesome! I need those on my wall ASAP.  

[Beholder He/him]

Can we all use these charts? Please?

[Obeythelaw7 Him/He]

how do you know about the 11th heightening? I can't see a patern.

I'm pretty sure it mentions that in Khriss' notes in the Ars Arcanum of warbreaker, all that text (I think) is an exact copy, just stylized and with some cool motifs and drawing

No mention by Khriss in the Ars Arcanum:

Spoiler

The only supposition is that 10th Heightening may also have other abilities:

Hope that helps
