'''Voidlight''' is the visiblea form of gaseous [[Investiture]] similar to [[Stormlight]], but associated with [[Odium]].{{wob ref|10390}}

A singer can sing the [[Song of Prayer]] to obtaincreate a Voidlight voidlightsphere, though this would draw Odium's attention.{{book ref|sa4|67}} It appears that this process is perhaps somewhat troublesome or time-consuming, as during battle, the [[Pursuer]] would go to some placesomeplace to fetch stored voidlightVoidlight instead of creating it directly.{{book ref|sa4|2}} In the past, [[Ba-Ado-Mishram]] is said to have provided it.{{epigraph ref|sa3|80}} The [[Fused]] enter the [[Physical Realm]] suffused with Voidlight.{{book ref|sa3|i|6}} Leaving gemstones out in [[Everstorm]] doesn't infuse them with voidlightVoidlight.{{Cite}}

Voidlight is stored in gemstones similar to stormlightStormlight, but these two types of light cannot be stored in the same gemstone.{{book ref|sa4|69}} Voidlight leaks significantly slower than stormlightStormlight.{{book ref|sa4|16}}

Voidlight takes the form of dark, nearly purple-on-black vapor, glowing violet.{{book ref|sa3|54}}{{book ref|sa4|16}} When a person is infused with it, Voidlight spreads over the surface of their skin rather than sinking in.{{book ref|sa3|54}} On the skin, it pulsescan be made to pulse, and when a person infused with Voidlight moves, they leave behind trails of violet light.{{book ref|sa3|i|6}}{{book ref|sa3|79}} However, Voidlight does not leak from the Fused.{{wob ref|9412}}

Voidlight has an emotional effect similar to Stormlight, but instead of a need to move, it causes a feeling of enhanced passion, and emotions become more vibrant.{{book ref|sa4|67}}{{wob ref|11750}} When drawn in tointo the body of a singer, it infuses mainly the gemheart, rather than the entire body as with Stormlight.{{book ref|sa4|67}} ItHumans iscan unknowndraw whetherin humansVoidlight canif drawthey inlearn voidlightthe orcorrect nottone and rhythm.{{book ref|sa4|97}}

Historically, the [[Regal]] forms of the [[singer]]s are associated with Voidlight, which is said to come from the king of gods.{{book ref|sa3|prologue}} Voidlight powers some, if not all, of Regals' special powers.{{book ref|sa4|67}} In the present day, it's used by the [[Fused]] to access [[Surge]]s, similarly to how a [[Surgebinder]] uses [[Stormlight]]. Also similarly, Voidlight provides healing to the person infused with it.{{book ref|sa3|79}} However, Fused do not lose Voidlight when not using it, and it can power their Surges for far longer, albeit more weakly.{{wob ref|9412}} Holding it has some sort of emotional impact, though different from Stormlight's.{{wob ref|11750}}

[[Larkin]]s are capable of feeding on Voidlight, with no apparent ill effects.{{book ref|sa3|i|13}}
