Truthwatch3r Posted January 19, 2020 Report Share Posted January 19, 2020 Hi all! My brother wanted me to start listening to the Revolutions podcast but somewhere in the process of looking that up I stumbled across the Shardcast; I have yet to learn a thing about revolutions, but I'm putting a lot more of the cosmere together than I had realized before. Thanks :-) Looking forward to digging in to this site as I finish Mistborn, reread Oathbringer, start on Elantris, etc! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aon Tia Posted January 19, 2020 Report Share Posted January 19, 2020 (edited) Welcome to the shard @Truthwatch3r What is your favourite cosmere character so far? Edited January 20, 2020 by The traveller 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truthwatch3r Posted January 20, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 (edited) @The traveller Hmmmm perhaps Sazed right now, though I'm only just nearing the end of WoA and I understand there's a lot more that will happen with him... I also really like Vivenna's toughness, and the scene with Hoid and Shallan telling The Girl who Looked Up always melts my heart, Hah too many to choose just one!

Honorless Posted January 21, 2020 Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 @Truthwatch3r, who's your least favourite character? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truthwatch3r Posted January 21, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 @Honorless lol besides Moash? I was about to say Taravangian wins hands down, but then again Sadeas' arrogance really irritates me even more than Taravangian's twisted logic in justifying himself. One thing I've noticed about Mistborn is that Brandon didn't really write many straight-out villains for us to hate (though I do count Straff so far) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing I've noticed about Mistborn is that Brandon didn't really write many straight-out villains for us to hate (though I do count Straff so far) I could not agree with you on each of these !! Moash is really on a very very bad downward spiral right now! And Taravangian!! Thank you for saying taravangian!! I agree with you totally. You would be surprised but not many hate him!! straff is certainly the most clear villain villain character in cosmere! He had nothing redeemable about him in my eyes! How good a person must his wife be, to have Straff get a fine son like Elend!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truthwatch3r Posted January 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 @The traveller huh. I am really surprised to hear that not many people hate Taravangian! Good point about Elend's mother.. according to coppermind I guess we never do learn anything about her :-\ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I want to go back through and see if Elend mentions her, but that's not going to happen until I finish HoA 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I can remember there is no mention of her being alive or dead but I think she is dead because when at the end of TFE they are emptying the straff villa, they seemed to live alone father and son!

From what little we know about them so far, they certainly fit me the best. I'm looking forward to finding out more about them, although it'll be interesting if Renarin and Glys continue to be our only example... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right? Yeah she's definitely not around at that point... Just went and checked out the thread on Taravangian. Wow, that was really good- brought up quite a few points I hadn't ever thought about Edited January 22, 2020 by Truthwatch3r 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol I still hate him, but I hadn't ever put together the possibility of Cultivation manipulating both him and Dalinar and using T as a plant in Odium's camp. And *shudder* I'm so glad it didn't end up being Renarin who wrote the Diagram! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He obviously knew that cultivation had tinkered with Dalinar but still decided to take his chances. So I am worried that he is going to be extra cautious with T!! And things may not turn out exactly how Cultivation hopes they would. Oh yes I am very glad that Renarin has been given some other storyline because I don’t see him making this diagram and trying to kill every ruler in order to become the one ultimate ruler! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
