Steel Inquisitive Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 (edited) If you had to pick a Shard to be the sole shard of your planet.... Who would you pick? (With the assumption that were talking about the shard not the vessel.) I personally would vote for Endowment. Seems like the most chill shard, and least invasive. (Unless she's turning you immortal, which I'm okay with) Preservation might be an option.... But according to Ruin he would freeze everyone in place.... Not ideal. Cultivation would just be scary! You would never know what she's planning for mankind..... Edited December 10, 2018 by Steel Inqusitive 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Invocation Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 (edited) If any Shard goes, probably the hinted Ingenuity Shard. If only ones we've seen count, I'd probably go with Harmony. Cultivation is a close second for me, since I like watching things change.

+Sorana Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 Devotion, if a splintered shard is an option, too. From what we know I think it could be alright to live with devotion as god. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I cant argue with that logic I would choose Honor, but knowing my personality, it would be less about keeping oaths and more about respect Edited December 10, 2018 by Ookla the Gray 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Zodiac Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 Honor started going crazy towards the end though. I would choose Harmony, because eventually we will have trouble interacting with the planet and that fine by me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RShara Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 (edited) Endowment or Harmony, for me. I really like the idea of Breaths (and immortality) but Harmony is just so benevolent. I really like Pathism. Edited December 10, 2018 by RShara 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're overestimating the benevolence of Autonomy. Oh, and I'd go with Honor. But I'm also the guy who actually likes Skybreakers, so y'all can probably guess my opinion on oaths. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jace21 Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 Autonomy, Harmony or Endowment. From the glimpses, admittedly small, that we have had of Autonomy and Endowment's worlds, these 3 seem to interfere the least, or at least benevolently.

scudalarm Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 If Autonomy is indeed the Shard in the Drominad system, the way the world runs feels very "Man vs Nature". Alternate choice is Endowment, everybody has the potential to be a magic user which is cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weltall Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 I'm going to add my vote to Endowment. Even without factoring in Edgli's 'I'll stay off your lawn if you stay off mine' attitude towards the other Shards, you've got a Shard whose focus is all on giving things to other people. I figure that's harder to go wrong with than a lot of options. Also, both Hoid and Brandon would be tempted by this Shard and if the God Beyond Himself thinks that way... 7 hours ago, Zodiac said: Honor started going crazy towards the end though.

Yeah, Leras did much the same, except the only thing left was his already weakened remnant, didn't he? A long death like that probably messes you up in the head.

Steel Inquisitive Posted December 11, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2018 I could be tempted to vote for Devotion.... But we haven't seen how she would lead without Dominion.... So probably stick with Endowment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calderis Posted December 11, 2018 Report Share Posted December 11, 2018 Am I the only one who sees Endowment in a negatively light Shardwise? Yes, it's benevolent, but it also requires giving of it's subjects. Awakening can't exist without legions of drabs, condemned to near perpetual sickness and depression. For every "gift" there is a cost. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
