  1. Challenge: All of Scadrial's people wish to work together to create the closest thing to a Fullborn to combat any potential threats to the planet right after the events of TLM. As this is era 2, only technology and magic available during that age can be used. No hypothetical abilities are allowed, so Hemalurgic spikes with multiples powers, Blanked Identities, or other things not yet confirmed via WoB or seen in the books are unavailable. I'd start with a natural steel/steel Twinborn for Compounding, as that's possibly one of the most broken combos available in the Metallic Arts and A-steel is a must have. Since medallions are finicky in what they can grant (seeming to only allow someone to either Tap or Store Feruchemical attributes), I'd give them five Hemalurgic spikes that provide A-pewter, A-tin, A-bronze, A-zinc (or brass), and A-duralumin. I'd then give them a Malwish medallion that provided F-gold, F-chromium, and F-iron. Additionally, I would give them a group of individual medallions that granted F-bronze, F-Bendalloy, F-cadmium, F-brass, F-duralumin, and F-copper. These metals either don't have to be used continually (F-bronze and Bendalloy can just be Tapped occasionally to get their benefit) or are more circumstantial in nature, so swapping them out with the primary medallion is more feasible. Finally, Harmonium cubes can be used to carry Allomantic effects, though the cube acts as the user of the Allomancy, making finesse control over the power difficult in most cases (i.e., can't direct Steelpushing or Emotional Allomancy selectively) and internal powers are pretty much useless for our purposes. With that in mind, A-copper, A-Bendalloy, A-chromium, and A-cadmium can all be nearly as useful (or even more so in cadmium's case) than if they were used by a true Allomancer. A-copper could still make a Coppercloud to conceal you and an aluminum helmet can play the part to shield from Emotional Allomancy, Bendalloy can still be activated on yourself even if you can't change the shape of the bubble, ranged chromium Allomancy is even better than normal, and cadmium is just way more effective when used on someone else in nearly every circumstance. All in all, this would grant our Metallic champion the effects of 20 separate metals, though they'd have to deal with the complications of the Flaw (though aluminum would certainly help), swapping certain medallions for circumstantial effects (such as if they need to breath underwater or travers a frozen mountain), filling those medallions with the attributes they needed (which is apparently more complicated that originally thought, as Wax comments on his people not having figured it out in TLM), and of course needing both Harmonium and Allomancers of the right types to fuel them. But hey, no wishy-washy hypotheses are required for it, and it should technically work as of era 2 tech.
  2. Greetings, Travelers! Welcome to the biginning of the monthly 17th Shard Art Brawl thread! @Kajsa :) and I had the idea to create this when we were both bored (at least, I was), and here we are! I'm too lazy to type out all of the rules for this, plus, my hands and wrists are cramping up because of how long I've been sitting at the computer for a super long time, so I'll edit this post later and add in the rules. Also, Kajsa, if you have ideas for rules, please feel free to post them on here ^^ Basically, Kajsa and I will be in charge of each round. the amount of rounds each month is still TBD, and so is basically everything else lol. If you wish to participate, please announce that in this topic. People will post prompts here, and then the participants will have a specific amount of time to create a 2D art piece based off of the prompt that was given. If you fail to meet the deadline for submissions, you will not be included for that round. I have more ideas for this but my fingers are cramping really bad so I'LL BE BACK WITH MORE INFO!
  3. Shard: Method of access investiture: Powers: Cost: Example Shard: valor; oceanic world Method a accessing investiture: arpoching small suns that are scatter around the sea floor. They close you getting the more heat they give off and more invested a person can become. Powers: First level The user gets the power to produce and control light. Second level : the user gives of and can manipulate heat. Finally level user can give off and manipulate dangerous levels of radiation. Cost: a user will slowly loose his exstra investiture this is excellorated by power use (Think stormlight but much slower) loss of power decreases your level (like breath) What can you come up with?
  4. I’m not sure where this is supposed to go, so I’m putting it here: Challenge: Write a fanfic set in Era 2, where Kell drags Marsh to a showing of a play based on TFE so they can make fun of it - and remember old friends. Bonus: Dox and Ham are cast as women. Brandon makes a cameo as the playwrite. Era 2 main cast characters are present. Sazed gets dragged into the fun. Challenge 2: Write a modern age Scadrial fanfic involving Survivorist metal band (think Christian Metal) called the Survivor’s Crew. Bonus: Kell is the secret backer funding the whole thing. The Band members dress like crew members. Have actual music for the band. They don’t only do heavy metal. Write lyrics for the songs.
  5. Wasing the say of greeting the you. Having the idea of speaking the difficulty: having the you of speaking the same of me. Musting the all of speaking of being the Spook. Iffing the do of speaking the normal, punishing the Stick of you!
  6. So... Me and my real life friends like to set reading goals to celebrate the release of books. For example I read the Temeraire series to celebrate the realease of Calamity. My Oathbringer goal is to read The Malazen Book of The Fallen, The Wheel of Time, ASOIAF, Discworld, and The Lightbringer. Care to set or share a goal?
