The '''Fused''' are the souls of ancient [[singer]]s that are able to be reborn by possessing the bodies of living singers. They are considered to be higher in singer society than [[Regal]]s and common singers.{{book ref|sa3|i|6}} They have powers similar to [[Surgebinding]]; however, unlike the Knights Radiant, there are only nine "brands" of them, rather than ten, and each brand has access to a single Surge, with none accessing Adhesion.{{book refcite|sa3|121somewhere in sa4}}

These ancient singer [[Cognitive_ShadowCognitive Shadow|shadows]] exist in a state very similar to [[spren]], until they take over a [[singer]] body. This process requires a living singer to open themselves up to bonding a new spren during one of Roshar's invested [[highstorm|storms]], in the same way as they would to adopt a new form. The singer shadows waiting to become a Fused then choose one of these willing, open singers; in a process that causes intense pain to the host, it then takes over the host's body.{{book ref|sa3|i|6}}
 
The Fused can be killed by conventional means, but they can use [[Voidlight]] to heal.{{book ref|sa4|5}} However, damaging their gemheart is instantly fatal.{{book ref|sa3|79}} The Fused can be permanently killed by being stabbed with a [[raysium]] dagger connected to a gem of [[anti-Voidlight]], provided there is enough anti-Voidlight in the gemstone.{{book ref|sa4|97}} If they are wounded by an insufficient amount of Voidlight to destroy them completely, they may still be wounded sufficiently that they will be reborn mad.{{book ref|sa4|113}} They can also be permanently killed by [[Nightblood]].{{wob ref|10440}}
