Inktober Day 4 - Murky

"The night's barely begun! Who would like to hear another story?" The traveling Jesk said. "Oh, Mr. Curious. I still don't know your name... Could you care to tell me?" The Jesk asked. "You like being called Mr. Curious? Okay. Well, what story did you want to hear?" The Jesk inquired. "The story of where all the swamps went? Ah, yes, I did say that little detail in my last retelling, didn't I?" The Jesk replied. "HEY! GET ON WITH THE STORY!" One of the rude onlookers shouted.

Inktober Day 3 - Crown

*ding ding* The sound of the door to the tavern opening. A jolly Jesk is laughing at all. Everyone is grumbling, looking away. "You, in the doorway! Would you like to hear a tale? A tale told by a liar and a fool?" The Jesk asks. "Ah, you want to know if it is myth or history? Why don't you listen and find out?" The Jesk replies. Everyone grumbles, and the Jesk tells them to shush. "Everyone, one and all, who wishes to hear a story, especially you, curious man,

3/14/25 Take a Breath.

The hunt for meaning, both of this life and the next, is inherently meaningless. Like everyone else, I've thought about things like: Who am I? Why am I here? What do I want? But in all honesty? I don't think it matters.  We always hunger for the next big thing, the next promotion, going to college, or making it in Hollywood. Because of this, we can never take a step back and just breathe. What matters is living a life that makes you happy, but seeking happiness can be hard. I know I've

9/29/25: What If?

Do you ever wonder who you would be if everything were different? What if you were straight? Would you have more guy friends? Would you feel you belong? Would you experience that fanciful mystery of young love? What if you grew up somewhere else? A place where people talk to each other outside their houses, where you could go places when you were young? What if I were born a different man in a different time in a different place? Would the world still go on the same? Sometime

7/12/25: Faith

Nothing in this world irritates me more than self-righteous "pagans," who demand that everyone subscribes to their Orthodoxy. Most aren't pagans, but rather Heathenists, worshipping a reconstructed religion. I have seen some suggest that the Norse gods don't get jealous, or threaten, or get angry - have they read anything ever? A wholly different person claimed that Pagonism is a set, defined religion that requires more "effort" than nature walks.  HUMAN SPIRITUALITY ISN'T ABOUT EFFORT

10/2/25: Hope

Hope is the oldest dream of all; the dream of a better tomorrow is one every man has felt. Sometimes all we have is hope, and in those days we cling to it like a drowning man. Even when we know it will do nothing, it is better to die standing, howling in pain as we bleed from our grip on the razor-sharp edge, than go quietly into the dark, whimpering. I will hope, always. I will cling to that hope, even when days are bleak, when the moon goes dark and the air is cold; I will hold on to

Minor Planets to Maybe be Used in Future Any vague ideas, inspirations, or full-ideas for notable planets that players might encounter or be discovered in the future, so we aren’t limited to barren rocks and so KSOHS doesn’t have to do all the work himself.   (this was also noted to be a neat idea, earlier. these planets may be affected by supernova Virtuosity business to certain degrees, iunno man i’m uncertain on the details)    I already have one cool idea: A sys

Character Details

Pre-Shattering Personal Relationships and Impressions A section for detailing any well-known details of disposition or opinions between and among those who Shattered Adonalsium.   (write things here) Uhhhhh Eloh liked stories and was really smart. He knew lots about the cosmere. He only cooperated in shattering because he knew they would do it without him, so why not do it too (also he had a plan) (did you perhaps have any desire for Eloh to have… ‘cultivated’ a relationship

Greater Roshar P4 [Redacted]

[Redacted] The third planet of Greater Roshar, unnamed at this time, is cold, windswept, and desolate, possessed only of a thin atmosphere generally unsuitable for extended habitation. No known species exist on this planet. Its metallic core is composed of an unknown metal which attracts Investiture, promoting unusual Invested effects in [Redacted]’s crust. Dark world of stormy sky, flashing red. Out of the cracks seeps shadows and red things, Midnight Essence and Thunderclas

Greater Roshar P3 Roshar

Planetary Bodies Roshar Roshar is a planet quite alien to those planets like Alaswha or Yolen. Invariably, life upon it is driven by Invested storms of great strength called highstorms. Flora has adapted to retreat from disturbances, and fauna hard shells. An abundance of Invested splinters exist on the planet, called spren by locals. It holds three moons of subtly unstable orbit, whereas all other planets in the system hold none.  Dominion’s arrival would subtly warp the spren in

Greater Roshar P2 Alashwa

Planetary Bodies Alaswha Alaswha is a planet somewhat reminiscent of the trune parts of Yolen, possessing of humans and other trune fauna and flora. It would also share features such as regular seasons, and is of similar size and gravity. Notable geographical features include the Central Sea, which serves as a convenient medium for trade and travel for many civilizations, most of which would rely upon it. Investiture is present in some portion on the planet, though was not pr

This is Argenti’s OG idea for the Threnody magic system, and I thought it was really cool so I just added a bunch more details and abilities and stuff into the Threonody/ENDOWMENT page, BUT SERIOUSLY THIS IDEA IS COOL (-wyver) Endowment and Preservation Magic system  The Gift of Life and The Gifts of the Dead   After death, Threnodites don’t cease to be.

Vision Shadows (WaT spoilers) (IotE spoilers spoiler boxed)

A long time ago (at least in this world), a cognitive shadow was created. Many reading this manuscript will know of this event. However, this is where our 2 worlds differ. In your world, it is yet unknown what will come of this very very special and unique cognitive shadow. In ours, it is already known, for it is far in the past. This cognitive shadow was called 'The Blackthorn' and it was a mix of Spren and Shadow. It was yet unknown what would happen to this being, or how this would play

Chromaturgy (HEMALURGY + ALLOMANCY + BREATHS CLONE???)

U sers of this magic are called drafters. There are 7 main colours. Monochromes draft one colour, bichromes 2, polychromes more than 2, and full-spectrum polychromes all 7. There are also Prisms, ancient gods and heretical colours, but I say we don't worry 'bout those for this RP. To draft a colour, you need a source of that light. To draft green for example, you can use the green light being released from a leaf or something. However, this does not work if you are, say, in a room with only

Shockstarters

Shockstarter: They can shock people with lighting powers, though using them causes them to take some of the damage they deal after a few attacks, forcing them to be aware of how much they are using it. The damage keeps growing, and they begin to get stunned until they are nearly dead. They can rest and the damage slowly fades, unless they push too far, and they will retain some permanent damage that can only be healed by a Brightbringer. Eventually, the threshold for the damage being permanent h

Dusksingers

Dusksingers. A roughly equal mix of human and singer ancestry. Exhibits mostly human skin textures, a pale tone with swirls of red, and the small carapace ridges along knuckles, knees, and elbows. Bright red hair is also inherited from singer ancestry. Can hear Rhythms, possesses a gemheart (but not singer forms), and has all black eyes and black nails, solid like claws.

Worldsingers

Bards are those lucky few who have drunk from the sap of the world tree- and been initiated into the sacred order that advises rulers across Vandra. With this comes a number of powers, the most notable of which is their ability to hear the Heartbeats of the world - rhythms chained to emotions, sensations, and gods - and to create Melodies, invested songs that draw on the power of the world and other nearby to create various invested effects. Bards, so long as they have a way to make m

Magic System Mayhem Planet

Somewhere in a far-off corner of the cosmere, there is a planet. This planet is known as the Worldhopper Planet. This planet has a magic system close to those of Elsecalling and Bondsmithing. There are these Spren known as Worldhopper Spren. You can only bond with one Worldhopper Spren at a time, but can bond with normal Rosharan Spren at the same time. Worldhopper spren give you the ability to make an incredibly temporary perpindicularity of your choice. This Perpindicularity does one of 3

Shardmancers (this one is my fav lol)

These people are called Shardmancers. There are strange metals found throughout the ground that do strange things when ingested. Shardmancers awaken (th
