==Description==
The Scar is a region of stars{{wob ref|8094}} that are unusually bright.{{wob ref|6089}}{{wob ref|3363}} In a cosmere star chart that was commissioned by an unknown patron,{{wob ref|8088}} the Scar includes a constellation known as "The Dragon".{{wob ref|8088}}{{file ref|Cosmere constellation map.jpg|Cosmere constellation map}} Most of the stars in the Scar have a red tint on the chart,{{file ref|Cosmere constellation map.jpg|Cosmere constellation map}} and are perceived as red when viewed from several planets, unlike other stars.{{book ref|mb3|7}}{{book ref|sa1|2}} The color is significant,{{wob ref|8093}} possibly because of [[Trell (Trellism)|Trell]] being associated with both stars and the color red, although it is not yet known for certain.
The apparent shape of the Scar varies depending on the vantage point in the cosmere; it is not always visible on every planet.{{wob ref|13018}}{{wob ref|3363}} This is due to the positioning of the various planetary systems{{wob ref|3363}} as well as local factors such as mist or ash.{{book ref|mb6|epilogue}}
