Geranid

Geranid is a scientist and ardent living with her husband, Ashir, " ... on a tiny Reshi island, technically sent to provide for the religious needs of any Vorin visitors." However, according to her husband, living there was a way of getting away and focusing on both Geranid's and Ashir's own experiments.
Her Calling is science, specifically spren studies.
==Experimentation==
Geranid discovers that when she measures spren, they vary in size, luminosity, and shape. But when she makes a notation they immediately freeze in their current state.
==Characteristics==
Geranid is skeptical of her husband's efforts with regard to foods that might please her, yet she indulges him nevertheless. She often finds his efforts terrible.
==Notes==
*According to a reader, this is totally equivalent to projective measurements in quantum physics. According to Brandon, quantum physics does play a role in the way the cosmere works, and this was partially intended to display that. However, he does take a different route, as thinking about something can directly influence it in the cosmere. So it's more a fantastical version of quantum physics.Stormlight Three Update #5, /r/Stormlight_Archive, 11/18/16
==Q&A with Brandon==
Q. Belief has had a lot to do with the cosmere. For example, in Warbreaker, the appearances of the ReturnedReturned had a lot to do with belief. Will belief have a big part to play in The Stormlight Archive?
A. It already has. The two scholars measuring the spren.Book signing, Provo, UT, 3/4/14
