the most useless uses for useful powers


king of nowhere

Recommended Posts

Forge yourself extra past, turning yourself into the future version of yourself.

Once again: Potentially awesome. It probably isn't possible with Forging, but a version of Shai with an extra couple decades of expertise would probably come in handy.

When the neighbors dog wont stop barking, forge it without a bark.

When the neighbors have a party and you're trying to sleep, forge the stereo broken

When people take up multiple parking spots, use shardplate to move the vehicle across the parking lot and then lash it to the new spot

When a girl wont stop texting on a date, forge the phone broken

Go to a hotel and wait for kids to try jumping up and down to break the elevator, then use fulcramy to actually break it. Look in horror to the kids and ask "what did you do?" then use Aons to travel out of the elevator

Go to a high school and lash the guys pants above their butts

I suggest dumping the girl, because she's clearly not intersted enough in you.

In fact, you can forge yourself so that you never went to the date in the first place but left her waiting. That would suit her just fine.

Or, if you can't find the right words to break up with her, forge yourself so that you already did the breaking up.

If you still want to try to court her, I suggest using emotional allomancy to riot despair and loneliness (or other bad feelings) every time she touches the mobile phone. See how long it takes before she get a pavlovian response to it.

Permanently fill steel and zync, live in slow-motion

Fill Atium all your live, more in the beginning, going less and less with every year. Around forty instead start tapping it, more every year: You are now Benjamin Button

Fill away your sense of identity then compound determination, you are determined to be nobody

Use atium and duralumin to see if a date's going well,then if it isn't,use steelminds to ditch her.

Soulcast a shardblade into a piece of poop.

Soulcast Lerasium into aluminium.

Full Lash somebody's pants to the ground.

Use Cadmimiuminds to sing underwater.

This is both possible (check out Shai's soul-stamps; one of her stamps is, essentially, a form of this) and useful.

It'd take years to do, and require you to know a heck of a lot about the subject to make the revised self plausible.

 

Seems pretty useless to me.

You don't necessarily need to know about the subject yourself, just change your history so that you spend time studying it. As someone else pointed out, Shai actually has a stamp that does this. All the stamp would need to say would be something like: studied under master artisan for five years
