Does anyone think we'll get any of Jasnah's childhood story in RoW? There's been a little more allusion to her childhood insanity and trust issues in Oathbringer, and I really hoped she'd be the focus backstory character in RoW. She has a traumatic past and the foreshadowing of it seems to suggest that we'll be filled in at some point, maybe book 5. I just feel she'd be a much more fascinating character if we knew that childhood patterns that caused her to be so emotionally withdrawn. Any thoughts?

So I've been thinking for a while about this and I came up with this theory: After Gavilar got killed, Jasnah goes away and does her heretic stuff blah blah. Then, at some point, she gets raped. Her Soulcasting powers would show up at that moment and she'd kill the guy somehow. This would explain why Jasnah is so cold to people in general, and also why she didn't hesitate to kill the street thugs in Kharbranth. Also, I remember seeing a quote somewhere where Shallan wonders what was done to her but I can't find it right now. Thoughts?

It’s kind of obvious from my handle who I’m most craving a POV flashback from! I want to know more about truthless; When someone is declared truthless do they all get a Honorblade. What do the Shamans from shinovar have to do with the honorblades? I have a suspicion that Nale has influenced their ideology . Mostly because they were convinced the Radiants would not returned which is something that Nale insisted on. Szeth wants to cleanse them, he is very angry with them. Do they deserve this? Or is Szeth just insane. if we learn this then we can guess if Dalinar will ever approve of Szeth 4th ideal quest. So many questions. Who trained Szeth? Do all members of his order train with all 10 honorblades like Szeth claims he has.? Is Szeth the best or are his peers of equal skill, or worse better than him....scary? So who do you most want to see a POV flashback from? I suspect a lot of Jasnah, a few Teravangion, but somebody may surprise and say somebody crazy like Navani! Tell us why u want to see it and what u hope is answered!

Right, considering that everyone has pretty much contributed in a RP of some form, I think it's time to start a backstory/profile thread. The format will be like this: Edit: You can't say that you have a "mysterious past" anymore. Current Name Gender: Original (if any) name: Faction: Position: Backstory and History: Powers: Weapon(s) of Choice: Likes and Dislikes: Mine is: Current name: Lightsworn Panda Gender: Male Original name: Unknown Faction: Observer's Guild Position: Leader and Founder Backstory and History: Panda's past is clouded and mysterious. Some rumors are that he was raised by pandas, since he sometimes acts like one and has a fetish for them. Powers: Panda can slightly alter the very matter of reality, allowing him to remove objects and use Ether magic, and has experience and skill in nearly every Cosmere power (excluding Hemalurgy, Forgery and some areas of Surgebinding). He is particularly skilled in Aons, able to draw dozens without using his hands. Panda is also a weapons specialist, and can wield almost any weapon. Panda can also perform Hollowification Bleach-style. Weapon(s) of Choice: Observer Reality Blade and twin ARMS 13 mm Auto Anti-Freak Combat Pistol, capable of shooting from Hemarlurgic Spikes to standard explosive rounds (Alucard's Jackal, in short. Google that up). Likes and Dislikes: Likes Pandas and watching confusion and destruction. Dislikes (working on it)
