  1. Its cool. Kaladin is a brooder, I think he would attract women who like brooding, based on how Shallans and her personalities thoughts about him in this book and WoR. he tries to save everyone he cares about and when he fails he freezes or falls into depression, sometimes just hearing bad news is enough, like when he realized the bridge crews were meant to be damage sponges. Yes we know Kaladin is really a big softy, that's what Tarah must have seen in him, but he has shown always to choose his men over romance and his depressive states are intense. Sticking with someone like that would be difficult. Also if other book romances are to be followed, and seeing Kal is basically a medieval superhero, this woman will be put in a ton of danger for drama sake.
  2. Amaran was a willing coward. Everytime he had the change to be who he pretended he failed. He talked of forging Kaladin, of course that's BS but it could have been true. Everyone was talking about Kaladin, they called him stormblessed, if he paid even the slightest attention to his armies he would have gained Kal loyality and be in a batter position that ever. Him getting superpowers changed nothing, he was just some jerk swinging his sword making making stuff break.
  3. Now that's going to cause problems or finally give Dalinar the edge he needs to stop them fighting.
  4. I think you got it. It connects with all the clues in some way.but is it something that would make Kaladin break down crying. Also Kal did not leave with Tarah because he was protecting those who were not able. This could be waved away by the fact that Tarah is not some wisdom machine who knew Kal would be a radiant.
  5. They will complain and then....What? Alethkar is conquered are they going to run home and till their now enslaved buddies. Right now the goverment is the warcamps, Listener capital and Urithriyu. Also where does Kaladin hold land now? and what would he even do with it?
  6. As someone else posted. Not everyone finds love, and he does not have good options. Just realizations that looks good to fans and in theory. Shallan is interested in him through her disturbing multiple personalities, Author is clearly having some fun with the shippers. Highmarshal Azure is not from this world and made clear that her goals are different. Tarah, while interesting to see authors book the trend of having super special people marry other super special people and go with a seemingly normal girl, that relationship had a clear end and common end; she got another job and he did not want to leave. Jasnah...like I said, in theory the whole push-pull they hate each other so they must love each other is great; for drama, not so much for healthy relationship. Syl, I am not disturbed by that like others are, I just think its bad for them and sad. Only girl he can get his, is not actually a "girl" and is bonded to him so if the break up she dies. Nope. Kaladins brooding storm face self attract certain type of women, but can't hold them. Maybe a women will help him grow but they would have to first deal with his many issues and his depressive states, the relationship would consist of him taking extreme measures to protect her and him breaking down all the time and her dealing with it. It would be a nightmare. I think he knows this. Its commented on when he says he has his bridgemen and does not need anyone else. I think Stormblessed love life will be played for sad comedy like it was in this book.
  7. So more influencing then. OK, yeah its probably both Going to say its always who they were or likely to be and the introduction of their spren solidified the effect or kept them set on the path. That event always seemed strange, even without a re-read. yeah Tornado be too much, but I could see someone doing it. His already riding highstorms like a surfer. The cognitive/spiritual topics is hard for me to grasp, but going by how the lashings are described, the word spiritual is used when describing the lashings. So basic lashing could be seen as mostly physical, partly spiritual for it to work. So are you thinking that each surge/lashing uses 1. Variations of all three or at least 2 of the realms. 2.That each surge has a separate power related to to the realms. 3.The orders itself has 3 aspects; like Windrunners have basic lashings for physical and 2 other realmatic abilities. Going to say that his fighting and leadership ability is Cognitive, because its how others view him and himself. Spiritual is his squire ability that lets those close to him use storm light. That's going with number 3. With number 2 leads to tons of potential for creativity, what's more Brandon's style though? magic system with tons of potential or with hard limits from the outset. Anyways, will just post this now read more on realmatic theory then post more later. Having trouble with the quote format.
  8. Cool, that's a messed up ability to though. If she really is manipulating people without trying. So she's a sharingen user?(google it) It does say with lashings spiritual link to earth is broken and bubbles are created around objects. Give some examples, or what it would look like.
  9. Adhesion really does have the most potential for expansion and creativity. Gravitation is pretty much tapped out; already have reduced weight, weightlessness, fall/flying, lashing people around. Pressure could crush things, or trying to keep it as similar to gravitation, exert pressure in different directions like how basic lashings is used. There was a thread about a force push idea. What is the purpose of this when basic lashing does the same thing. Distance and Damage! that's what, no touching required. So to summarize this lashing gonna call it Complete lashing- This ability changes the force and direction of pressure exerted on object or person. Someone more knowledgeable with have to double check if this would work, all i know of air pressure is from grade school and youtube lol. With this we have 2 lashings for each surge, had some crazy ideas for vacuum, but they were crazy and its part of the same surge anyway. The lashings have some good uses outside battle,full lashing for prisoners and making traps for high value items. Basic lashing for travel. Reverse lashing cant think of anything.My complete lashing is kind of like wind telekinesis, may uses without being too broken an ability. Imagine Kaliden complete lashing a ball in one direction then another and varying speeds and force so it appears like he is using telekinesis, but from the sound of wind others will know what he's really doing. Maybe he can complete lash himself to make himself more aerodynamic to help with his fly/falling.
  10. If they can't resist and have taken stormform anyway, then its pretty sad. Escaped only to turn into stormform regardless.
  11. does anyone know how many escaped? I have a feeling they will join the bridgemen as fighting refugees and advisers on fighting voidbringers..
  12. Yeah sticking stuff together seems pretty lame. It can be sprayed though that's a plus. Maybe because we are thinking in military uses or single combat. Maybe there is some domestic/civilian uses. Binding prisoners for example. Also we dont know how bindspren works with full lashings for sure maybe there is a way to use bindspren to increase efficiency or range. One use could be increasing the weight of small object, throwing it, sticking it to target unable to get up because of the weight. The sticking together of things sound like it describes the atmospheric pressure part, but what about the vacuum? maybe that's a source of another 4th lashing.
  13. damnation your right, this is difficult. Good thing I made a thread or I would have though our fav grouch kaliden could do some crazy stuff. Epic. I can so see Kal chilling underground laying in wait with a frown on his face. gravitation fabrial exists? or is it possible.
  14. That I did not remember; very limiting indeed so my 2 ideas is dead.Makes sense though, also prevents kaladin from pulling a chibaku tensei. If reverse lashing works on people it could be uses as a way of restraining people, similar to a full lashing. Makes me wonder, is it fair to say the more restrictive the power the least storm light it uses?
