'''AonDor''' is a manifestation of [[Investiture]] located on the [[Cosmere#Planets|planet]] [[Sel]] that is used by the [[Elantrian]]s.{{book ref|Elantris|4}} It involves the use of variously shaped [[Aon]]s, which draw energy from the [[Dor]] and must be fine-tuned to the landscape.
Only an [[Elantrian]] can use the [[Aon]]s to draw power from the [[Dor]].{{book ref|Elantris|7}} This means that to use AonDor, a person must originally be of [[Aonic]] descent.{{wob ref|2173}} The person must then be chosen by the [[Shaod]]. Their skin will glow, their hair will turn white, and they gain the ability to draw Aons that channel the Dor.{{book ref|Elantris|4}}
It is also possible to form this Connection by being invited into specific groups (presumably Elantrian groups, such as the [[Ire]]), though the exact mechanics of this are not yet known.{{book ref|tress|64}} Someone can also [[Forgery|stamp]] themselves to become an Elantrian.{{book ref|mb7|54}}

=== Curses ===
It is possible through complex Aon Equations to lay complex curses upon people with specific effects and conditions, even to the point of transforming someone into a completely different species.{{book ref|tress|64}} They can also completely change one's personality,{{book ref|tress|13}} limit their intelligence,{{book ref|tress|24}} and forbid one from being able to speak of their curse or how to break it.{{book ref|tress|24}}{{book ref|tress|61}}
Cursed individuals have a ring of Aons surrounding them, which describes and makes up their curse.{{book ref|tress|64}} These appear to be difficult or impossible to see by those without access to AonDor.
It is possible to create another city similar to Elantris in other locations on Sel.{{wob ref|254}} The [[Ire]] created a base similar to it in the [[Cognitive Realm]] of [[Scadrial]], though in order for this to work, Investiture from Sel needs to be piped to it.{{msh ref|5|2}} There are, however, other ways to achieve the same effect.{{wob ref|13387}}
AonDor will not normally work on planets other than [[Sel]],{{wob ref|1473}}{{wob ref|6164}} but it is possible to hack the magic system and get it to work on other planets.{{book ref|tress|64}}{{wob ref|5633}}{{book ref|mb7|54}} A Full [[Feruchemist]] could use [[nicrosil#Feruchemical Use|nicrosil]] to create an [[unsealed metalminds|unsealed]] [[
