Popular Post Calderis Posted June 13, 2017 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 (edited) The past few days on the Shard have been kind of slow. So here's a ridiculous time waster. There once was an ardent swordmaster, Whose speech was a vibrant disaster, He'd grumble with hues, While training bridge crews, He most certainly wasn't named Vasher. Wax has a friend who likes hats, Who battles with bubbles and bats, His accents are "borrowed," His history sorrowed, That Wayne is the oddest of cats.

Ciridae Posted June 13, 2017 Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 (edited) A slippery girl that is awesome, She can slide and make trees blossom, She's got a Voidbringer, And steals people's dinner, If she had to, she'd eat a whole possum.

Calderis Posted June 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 @Ciridae I tried coming up with one for Lift and failed miserably. A girl named Shallan killed her parents, Admit this to herself well... She daren't, But because of her spren, She remembers again, And has gained magic powers inherent. Elantris's power once bloomed, Then the chasm turned it to a tomb, Through trial and error, Raoden's the bearer, Of Elantris's power resumed. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dashardie Posted June 13, 2017 Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 There once was a girl named Vin Whose mentor really was a has-been So she gulped down a vial and ran for a mile Thank god she was not Kaladin 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Confused Posted June 13, 2017 Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 These are fun! My entries: A young boy named Kal was depressed. The rain between years made him stressed. His brother then died, But Syl came to his side And now they all call him Stormblessed! As forgers go, Shai was the best. An emperor owed her largesse. She painted with Dor Her soul stamps galore - So many things left to Invest! Jasnah and Ivory could Cast Their souls anywhere but the past, Desolations they knew Would soon come anew. How can humanity last? 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calderis Posted June 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 Hrathen of Fjordell was torn, By the tenants of being a Gyorn, Wild circumstances, And Dahkor advances, Forced him to save those he'd scorned. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Extesian Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 Deep ‘neath the mountains of Sel Approacheth a new type of h.ell For Wyrn told no lies Jaddeth will arise And take up his place beside Trell A nightmare created from Breath That brings to the evil swift death. If your thoughts aren’t so pure Avoid the allure Of a black sword, with silver sheath With Honor she ruled many days Til Odium invested in Braize She knew it would d.amn her But brave is our Slammer Her prize was imprisoning Rayse 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calderis Posted June 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 (edited) A pious and virtuous Shin, Accused of the gravest of sins, Truthless they said, His life he must shed, He slaughtered in white, assassin. Edit: The shard is a wonderful place, Filled with knowledge and excessive grace, It's late and I'm tired, And I'm feeling inspired, To sleep 'fore I fall on my face. Goodnight.

dashardie Posted June 15, 2017 Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 Kal had a brother named Tien So cute, that he could not e'en Til he went off to fight, Oh what a plight! Then Syl became his new sunbe-am (it's a bit of a stretch, I know...) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calderis Posted June 15, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 The Old Magic, Taravangian sought, For the future is shadowed and fraught, Now no matter the cost, In the lives that are lost, He believes that salvation's been bought. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dashardie Posted June 15, 2017 Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 (edited) A friend we may have in Hoid But that man, we learn to avoid Whether it's in the mist Or by the edge of a fist, He may damnation us all to the void Edited June 15, 2017 by dashardie "damnation" just doesn't work 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Confused Posted June 15, 2017 Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 (edited) These are SO much more entertaining than theorizing! All of the entries are excellent, but I especially like Calderis's "good night" message and Taravangian ditty. Shards are a piece of the whole Of the cosmere’s very first soul. Adonalsium they called him Before they destroyed him, And now Shards fulfill his role. Leras and Ati were friends Who decided to follow a trend. A planet they made, But the plans that they laid Would lead to that planet’s end. Honor was a very fine fellow. He bought drinks to make his friends mellow. But Odium came, Honor’s death to proclaim, And vibrated Honor to jello. [I hypothesize Honor’s death created the Shattered Plains.] Did Shashara Awaken a sword? Or was it a spren from abroad? She commanded “Kill evil,” What an upheaval When Nightblood received his reward! Edited June 15, 2017 by Confused 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dashardie Posted June 15, 2017 Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 (edited) This is highly entertaining to me as well...much more satisfying than doing my ACTUAL work.... That Lift is oh so awesome Or so its said quite often You can't seem to work While she has a Shardfork And tries to eat a vasum Edited June 15, 2017 by dashardie spelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calderis Posted June 15, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 They claimed 'twas the last desolation, While abandoning Taln to Damnation, It's utterly sad, That the Heralds are mad, Their actions deserve condemnation. A source of chaos in Azir, And a friend of the new Prime, most dear, Lift likes to eat, And she comes from the streets, Her penchant for novelty's clear. (the best I've come up with for Lift. Don't know why she makes this so difficult.) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
What's a Seawolf? Posted June 15, 2017 Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 Right hand of the Survivor, Of goods he's a supplier, But then Kel disappeared, He lost even more cheer, Dockson got caught in a quagmire. Master of so many tricks, Some clearly do not like his shtick, Stronger than Lightweavers, Can't even catch fever, Of course I'm talking about Stick! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Confused Posted June 15, 2017 Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 (edited) Here's one for Lift: Lift was from Rall Elorim. That City of Shadows was dim. She saw the Nightwatcher, Who said, “Now I’ve gotcha," And made Lift become so awesome! Edited June 15, 2017 by Confused Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Extesian Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 It was a good post. I support stick-bashing. I have this temptation to do all my replies in limerick form. I that'll last about one post Wait, let me rephrase Imma be silly, no lie, use limerick for my reply. I doubt it'll last So I'll do this quite fast Before people think that I'm high. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
