SaphicColours Posted March 26, 2019 Report Share Posted March 26, 2019 Salutations, I suppose. I'm not really sure what to say here other than welcome to my AMA? Is it too soon for one? Perhaps, but I'm rather unimportant, so have some fun. Bonus points for fun questions. Negative points for baked good, metaphysical or otherwise. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karger Posted March 26, 2019 Report Share Posted March 26, 2019 Alright then would you care to check out the Jasnah v Kaladin debate and offer a verdict? Also please provide us some detail about yourself books read, favorite order, how you picked up the first one? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also please provide us some detail about yourself books read, favorite order, how you picked up the first one? Yeah sure, I'll check it out right after this. Let's see... I've read/listened to the audio books for Mistborn Era 1 & 2, Elantris, Warbreaker, Arcanum Unbound, and the Stormlight books released so far. I've read White Sands 1, but not vol 2 yet. I picked up my first book, Mistborn, when I had my first brain surgery at 17 (about 9 years ago), but didn't invest (pun intended) a lot of time or love until I read Way of Kings. This was because of the headaches I dealt with after my brain surgery that made reading difficult. Thankfully, I've healed since then so they aren't as frequent and rarely so bad. Oddly enough, I've struggled a lot with the Mistborn series in general because I'm unsure how I to feel about it. Lots of conflicting feelings there, most of the bad being completely unfair and undeserved. 2 minutes ago, Ghanderflaffle said: Would you like a cookie? Do you like hats? Of course I do! I wouldn't be a very good lesbian if I didnt have a beanie at all times regardless of the weather or climate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What order of the Knights Radiant would you say would belong to? Also, did you get the metaphysical baked goods bit from Invocation? He has been offering evil ones lately.

It made me laugh so I thought I'd keep that proverbial ball rolling a bit. That's a tough one, as I'm really unsure. Is there a test I can take? Without such, I would guess Edgedancer, Stoneward, or Willshaper. I know that sounds a bit contradictory but it happens. I could probably tell you which I think I wouldn't be... Elsecaller, Dustbringer/Releaser (if Malata is to be archetypical of their personality), and Truthwatcher. I wouldn't mind being a Windrunner, Skybreaker, bondsmith, or lightweaver. But I'm not sure if or how much I fit with those. Edited March 27, 2019 by SaphicColours Words are hard 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odd. I got Stoneward and Willshaper in equal amounts (36), and Edgedancer (31) only a little after that. Skybreaker (28) and Lightweaver (21) after that, followed by Truthwatcher and bondsmith (Between 10 and 15) Elsecaller, Windrunner, and Dustbringer were my lowest (being 5 at most, zero on 2 of them) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the only one that seems to not replace Truthwatcher with Edgedancer all the time.

For stormlight and for the other worlds. I'd love to see what kind of metalurgist or feruchemist I would be. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's your favorite magic system? Favorite magic system is a tough one. Awakening, Metalurgy, Feruchemy, and surgebinding are all amazing to me. I'm probably as interested in the concept/practice of twinborn as much as I am surgebinding, with awakening falling behind those. At least from those that I really know so far. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's just so many of them that are good, so I feel you on the difficulty of that choice. I'd have to agree that the future of Twinborn and the rest of the Metallic Arts is intriguing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was a bit sad to hear about Mistborns and Full Feruchemists being a thing of the past, and even the mistborns that were made after being at a significant power drop. I was hoping to see another mistborn or full feruchemist. But I'm also extremely interested in seeing what resonances twinborns end up making, and seeing the effects of compounding. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought so too. When I first heard about a mistborn serial killer that's how I took it: that the serial killers victims were mistborn. The other option "the serial killer IS a mistborn" makes things dramatically different, and interesting, albeit in a completely different way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm about to dive into a theory that's been floating around for a bit but I need to know that first. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
