swlotrgirl Posted November 30, 2019 Report Share Posted November 30, 2019 Hey guys, I'm new here so I thought I'd introduce myself. I became a huge fan of Brandon Sanderson a few years ago. I have read most of his books and love learning about the Cosmere. I wanted to become more active in the fandom so here I am. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destruction Posted November 30, 2019 Report Share Posted November 30, 2019 Hello and welcome to the shard. What books have you not read? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swlotrgirl Posted November 30, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2019 I haven't read the Wheel of Time books and some of his short stories/novellas like Children of the Nameless. I think I have read everything else of his. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destruction Posted November 30, 2019 Report Share Posted November 30, 2019 That's cool that you have read basically all of his books. I have basically as much as you as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honorless Posted November 30, 2019 Report Share Posted November 30, 2019 Who's your fav character, @swlotrgirl? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swlotrgirl Posted November 30, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2019 (edited) @Honorless, I have a lot of favorite characters. I guess the ones that come to mind right now are Shallan, Vin, Sazed, and Lightsong. I could list off more by each book, but that would probably take too long, haha. Who are your favorite characters?

swlotrgirl Posted November 30, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2019 @spren of destruction, that's awesome. I'm hoping to start reading the Wheel of Time series soon so that I can cross the books Brandon wrote off my list. I'm also making my way through Starsight right now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aon Tia Posted November 30, 2019 Report Share Posted November 30, 2019 Welcome to the shard @swlotrgirl I am waiting for my copy of starsight! I have also not read children of the nameless. Which magic system is your favourite that you would like to have? Which world would like to live in? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swlotrgirl Posted November 30, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2019 @The traveller Surgebinding is pretty cool. I also like Allomancy. @Honorless Moash, definitely. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honorless Posted November 30, 2019 Report Share Posted November 30, 2019 What's your favourite Order of the Knights Radiant? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aon Tia Posted November 30, 2019 Report Share Posted November 30, 2019 Yup windrunners or elsecallers for Surgebinding and steel misting for Allomancy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swlotrgirl Posted December 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2019 Well, I took a quiz a while ago that said I was a Lightweaver. Plus I think Lightweavers are cool and Shallan is one of my favorite characters. For Allomancy, being a Mistborn would obviously be best, but if I had to choose, I would be a Coinshot (Steel) or a Pewter Arm. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argent Posted December 1, 2019 Report Share Posted December 1, 2019 Wow, no love for the Cosmere in your display name? Tsk, tsk. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honorless Posted December 1, 2019 Report Share Posted December 1, 2019 My favourite are also the Lightweavers . As for Allomancy, I would choose Electrum or Nicrosil. If we're speaking Era 1, then Bronze 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aon Tia Posted December 1, 2019 Report Share Posted December 1, 2019 Electrum and nicrosil Allomancy? Really? @Honorless why? I would be game if we are talking about Feruchemy with these two. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honorless Posted December 1, 2019 Report Share Posted December 1, 2019 Future sight and power boosting are both pretty cool plus helpful in a pinch but not frontline combat material, they're perfect I'm not really sure about the Feruchemy aspects since we haven't seen either yet. The Spiritual Feruchemy metals sound dangerous and valuable (extra dangerous). I'm not interested in determination boosts either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swlotrgirl Posted December 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2019 (edited) @Wander89, yes I am. I actually came up with the name in high school and just keep using for a username, haha. As for my favorite moment, there are so many. I just finished reading Oathbringer again a few weeks ago so moments from there come to mind right now. Spoiler I loved the chapter with Shallan talking to Hoid in Kholinar after Grund is killed and she realizes that she wasn't helping people by giving them food. (CH. 82: The Girl Who Stood Up). Hoid's encouragement and advice to Shallan really spoke to me and I loved their interactions with each other. I also loved when Dalinar stood up to Odium and was like, "You cannot take my pain!" And then he Ascended and brought all three realms together?! So. Awesome. I have been a fantasy fan since I was a kid. What got me into the Cosmere specifically was that my sister, brother-in-law, and husband are all fans and they convinced me to start reading Brandon's books about three years ago. I think that answers everything, haha. Edited December 3, 2019 by swlotrgirl 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish that people in my family read Cosmere! How very lucky of you! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
