  1. I'm just started reading this book, but havent gotten very far so it's still just a theory, but i think it was the Dad's superhero t-shirt.
  2. Brandon Sanderson has been quoted to say there will be no more mistborn in the future mistborn trilogy. "In a future book series, Mistborn will also have become things of legend. The bloodlines will have become diluted to the point that there are no Mistborn, only Mistings--however, the latter are far more common. In this environment, a Nicrosil Misting could be invaluable both as an enhancer to your own team or a weapon to use against unsuspecting other Misthings." The next series will have Nicrosil and Chromium mistings: the first will intensify another's metal while the latter will weaken them. Ironeyes is technically a Mistborn, though I don't think he'll play an integral role: Sanderson didn't have him as a main character in AoL.
  3. Just a guess, but do you think that Elhokar can see the Cryptic spren, not because he's a soulcaster, but because he's potenially from another order? Sanderson was asked if other orders could see other spren and gave a RAFO answer, but it doesn't rule out the possibility.
  4. As far as we know only Jasnah and Shallan don't need one, though they do need the stormlight.
  5. Syl told Kaladin his ability to Surgebind was her doing so I doubt Tien could surge, but I have always thought there was something to Tien's love for rocks that was more than just ordinary.
  6. I think it would be awesome if it is Shallan who finally takes out Szeth-son-son-Vallano, maybe saving Kaladin during an epic battle using her Soulcasting and Shardblade. Well, one can dream.
  7. The Crytic (I still think Scholar) Spren might not have known or remembered much without the bond with Shallan, like Syl could not remember much until she took something from Kaladin and gave him the abilities of a Windrunner in turn. Maybe the Cryptic didn't know what was going on until Shallan gave it a truth (something a Scholar Spren would be interested in), and in turn the Spren gave Shallan the ability to Soulcast. The truth was powerful and in turn gave her a more powerful bond. Kaladin's powers came slower I would think because he wasn't trying to gain any ability. Syl just took what was there and gave more and more as Kaladin needed it.
  8. Thanks and good point: one other thing occurs to me though concerning the genetics of the Alethi, since their hair takes on different traits at the same time, as with some lighteyes having blonde hair with sprinkles of black, and so on, I would think genetic aren't passed on in the same way as ours.
  9. It occurred to me that maybe the Cyrptic/Creation Spren that Shallan sees are Scholar Spren. It would make sense why Jasnah and Shallan have both seen them,. It also falls in line why Shallan started seeing them after starting to study to be a scholar and being able to soulcast. The Parshendi, I think would also be intertested in these "Scholar spren" from the preview I read of the second book. That would come full circle rather nicely.
  10. Rust and ruin I've been a good boy this year, no really. I hope Santa brings me a signed copy of The Alloy of Law.
