=== Formation and Appearance ===
To become a Regal, a singer has to bond a [[voidspren]]; a non-sapient variety is used for this purpose.{{book ref|sa3|i|3}} The form is assumed much like any other, by stepping into the storm with the mindset to bond an appropriate spren. Unlike a Fused possession, a form of power can be taken on both in [[highstorm]] and the [[Everstorm]].{{book ref|sa2|i|5}}{{book ref|sa3|i|6}} In some cases, [[Odium]] may force a Regal form upon a singer personally while the latter is in the Everstorm.{{book ref|sa3|i|6}}
{{quote|In the past, Odium granted forms of power, but Ba-Ado-Mishram thought she could do it. Ended up handing out forms of power as easily as Fused give each other titles, Connected herself to the entire singer species. Became a little god. Too little.
|[[Ulim]] explaining to [[Venli]]{{book ref|sa4|73}}
}}
During the [[False Desolation]], [[Ba-Ado-Mishram]] was able to Connect to all singers on Roshar and grant a large portion of them forms of power as well as Voidlight.{{book ref|sa4|73}} This is no longer possible since the Unmade is now imprisoned in a gemstone.
The forms of power come in many different shapes; their precise number is unknown, though higher than ten.{{wob ref|6285}} Regardless, they can always be recognized by having red eyes, as opposed to typical [[singer]] black.{{book ref|sa3|109}}{{book ref|sa2|11}} Historically, they were associated with [[Voidlight]] and [[Ba-Ado-Mishram]], though neither is necessary for their functioning.{{book ref|sa3|prologue}}{{epigraph ref|sa3|80}}
