'''Dawnbringer''' is a sentient sword and is one of the [[Six Sacred Swords]]. She is wielded by [[Keras Selyrian]], but is also bonded to [[Reika]], who served as her Guardian. As the Sacred Sword of Light, Dawn possesses several powerful light-based abilities.

==Personality==
Dawn has a very playful personality, often teasing Keras, but is also quickly jealous when he turns his attention towards other things.

==History==
Dawn is one of the [[Six Sacred Swords]], but also may have been crafted in some way by [[Aendaryn]] for his first apprentice to use against a [[vae'kes]]. Aendaryn originally intended for the [[Empyrean Heart]] to be affixed to Dawnbringer's pommel, but was not able to finish the weapon in this way. 

Dawn gained consciousness long after this, and "grew up" in her shrine alongside her guardian/adoptive sister [[Reika]]. She was eventually found by [[Taelien Salaris|Keras Selyrian]], who became her wielder despite lacking her three amulets.

==Magic==
Dawn possesses a strong bond to the Dominions of [[light essence|Light]], [[spirit essence|Spirit]], and [[stability essence|Stability]].

;Light's Bond: Dawnbringer's spirit bond with her wielder allows her to communicate telpathically with them while they are nearby.

;Dawn's Mark: Once someone bonds to a sacred sword, they gain a mark on their body similar to an attunement. The mark grows stronger over time and allows for the exchange of mana between the wielder and the blade, letting the wielder gain light and spirit mana from Dawn (and eventually enhancement mana). This generally provides Dawn's wielder with a level of magical resistance in addition to increasing their speed. 

;Golden Dawn: This ability makes Dawn glow incredibly bright, blinding enemies and countering shadow magic. It also appears to harm phantasmal creatures and shadow monsters like [[ruinshade|ruinshades]].

;Luminous Arc: An extremely fast, long-distance blast of light from Dawn's blade that is very powerful, but consumes a lot of mana.

;Radiant Dawn: Dawn's signature technique, Radiant Dawn allows for her to reflect magic with the flat of her blade. This is mana intensive, but can reflect even some of the strongest magic, including the signature techniques of other sacred swords. 


Dawn has also gradually developed some abilities from her bond with Keras, alllowing her to use some [[metal essence|metal sorcery]] and a much weaker version of Keras's [[sae essence|annihilation aura]].
