'''Shardbearer''' wasis a term used to refer to someone who heldholds a '''[[Shardblade]]''' or a suit of '''[[Shardplate]]'''. If someone heldholds both a [[Shardblade]] and [[Shardplate]], they wereare considered to be a "Fullfull Shardbearer."
 
Although the term generally refers to true Shardblades and Shardplate, the term Shardbearer is also applied to those who hold Shardblade-like weapons, such as the [[Honorblade]]s and the unique blade [[Nightblood]].
They had to wait ten heartbeats (which the [[Shardbearer]] could hear no matter how loud his surroundings) after summoning the Shardblade before it appeared. When a Shardblade appeared, it formed as if from mist, wet with dew. If the Blade was dropped or put down when the [[Shardbearer]] was still alive, the Shardblade would vanish unless the bearer willed it to remain. However, when the '''Shardbearer''' died, the Shardblade remained corporeal and could be claimed by another.
The term "Shardbearer" is not to be confused with "[[Shard]]" or "Shardholder," which refers to someone holding a [[Shard of Adonalsium]].
