[OB] A new perspective on who wrote Oathbringer

[Necessary Eagle Cryptic]

About half of Roshar has been declared to be Really Truly Obviously the author at this point. But why only settle for half? Suggest a character that no one else has proposed yet, you special snowflake. I'll start:

1. Bavadin. (okay, she's not from Roshar, but: c'mon, it's Bavadin).

2. May Aladar

3. Mraize's pet chicken

[Nathrangking Prime]

1)Sureblood

2)Re- Shephir

3)Vathah

[Toaster Retribution Prime]

Rayse

[Kinnsayyy Misting]

Wayne? Kelsier? SPOOK?? 

[Steeldancer Prime]

A Kandra-Sleepless hybrid. 

[Aleksiel Returned]

Gaz

Vivenna

Adonalsium

Cenn's future autobiography, he's actually alive. He will become Honor's champion, but sadly fail.

[Kinnsayyy Misting]

Okay I have had time to reflect. All of these answers are clearly incorrect. The true writer of Oathbringer is...  

Spoiler

STICK

 

[Andy92 Full Shardbearer]

King Lopen 

[maxal Dawnshard]

Nohadon.

[Fifth of Daybreak Most Ancient]

It was Yalb of course!

[Solant Envisager]

Stick!

Kinnsayyy beat me to it

[ADIMORTIS Cobalt Guard]

The answer, of course, is Brandon Sanderson.

[Subvisual Haze Steel Inquisitor]

The author was YOU THE READER all along

- directed by M. Night Shamalan

[Ammanas Rambleman]

I haven't been keeping up with on possible writers, but Sigzil makes a lot of sense to me. I don't know if this is a popular idea or not.

[Fifth of Daybreak Most Ancient]

Is it too on the nose to say Hoid?

[Salkara Silent Gatherer]

Merin.

[Extesian Bondsmith]

Glys

[duladen Ferring]

Sebarial

[Subvisual Haze Steel Inquisitor]

It was a collaborative project written by both of Shallan's parents, Helarin, Sadeas, Gavilar, Highlord Roion, Tien, Tyn and Tanavast.

Turns out none of them were "really dead", they all get resurrected in the final 2 chapters and then publish their in-world book.

[Head Crabs Noble]

1. Sixth of Dusk

2. Hrathen

3. Nightblood

4. Chull dung

[Paliah Bridgeman]

Or maybe Oathbringer is revived and writes its autobiography. 

[Beatsmorn Pahn Kahl]

Eshonai, but everytime I say "Eshonai becomes the Willshaper" it gets 10% louder

[The Sovereign Mistborn]

Not a particularly weird one, but I don't think I've seen anyone propose Shallan. The "I've been called a monster" line makes me think it could be her.

[ScavellTane Arbiter]

I'm still on the 'Non-of-the-above' camp.

Tyn isn't seemingly dead either.

Which is good because I want to see more of her.

Nevermind I messed up Tyn and Lyn.
