A '''fabrial''' is a [[Light]]-powered mechanical device from [[Roshar]] that uses [[spren]] to perform a particular supernatural task. Modern fabrials typically use spren captured in gemstones, while older fabrials like Soulcasters typically have the spren manifest as metal touching (replaceable) gemstones.{{book ref|sa4|46}} The magical properties of modern fabrials can usually be activated by anyone who knows how to use them.{{book ref|sa2|86}} A person who creates or designs fabrials is called an '''artifabrian'''.{{book ref|sa4|part=ars}} The term "fabrial" is often used colloquially to refer to the entire device. Artifabrians, however, call that a "machine", and use the word fabrial to refer specifically to a gem with a captured spren.
