I hope that the Cosmere avoids ever doing such a problematic display as Miss America. Secondly Jasnah would almost certainly win. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renarin Kholin Posted January 31, 2020 Report Share Posted January 31, 2020 Definitely not Syl. She would get distracted and transform into a raindrop or a flower or something. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Secondly Jasnah would almost certainly win. First of all, I think stabbing someone to steal their abilities is more problematic than a beauty pageant, second of all this was just a fun scenario to talk about hypothetical interactions between characters Edited January 31, 2020 by Allendrius Grammatical errors 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsecaller_17.5 Posted January 31, 2020 Report Share Posted January 31, 2020 (edited) Let's throw MeLaan in. Not only can see make herself supernaturally beautiful she has in the past. And it's hilariously easy for her. Edited January 31, 2020 by Elsecaller_17.5 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quantus Posted January 31, 2020 Report Share Posted January 31, 2020 (edited) Jasnah if it's a surprise, Shai if they have enough prep time. More of the traditional beauty queen traits (always described as superior beauty AND mind, lots of talent, and...that's all they want right? She's also experienced enough in high society to fake the parts that she doesnt believe in. The closest second for a rounded candidate is Vivenna, and by the time she might be socially experienced enough to beat Jasnah she was rocking face scars. But give Shai the time, and she could turn herself into the perfect Womanly ideal of the judges themselves, whatever it may be. EDIT: 3 minutes ago, Elsecaller_17.5 said: Let's throw MeLaan in. Not only can see make herself supernaturally beautiful she has in the past. And it's hilariously easy for her. OOh, wow excellent point. She's a real Contender! I think she'd beat Jasnah, because at the end of the day Jasnah would find the whole idea a tiring waste of time while MeLaan would probably find the silliness amusing, and the difference would likely shine through. Actually, if we are examining the list, Siri probably beats her sister in a classic beauty pageant, though I suppose she's married these days (or long dead?).

Paalm Tree Posted January 31, 2020 Report Share Posted January 31, 2020 (edited) Any kandra could win, regardless of gender, they can look almost how ever they want, are good at acting high class, can be put on the spot and adapt to whatever happens easily Also, you cannot forget about Vin, she has a pretty good chance, she is pretty, can act well, and very good under pressure. She would win the talent portions. Another mistborn character is Allriane, who would do pretty decently. Jasnah would win, hands down though.

RShara Posted February 1, 2020 Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 I get that this is meant to be light and fun, but can I say that judging women by their physical appearance is making me extremely uncomfortable? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it's hilariously easy for her. right, forgot melaan. i'd like to revert my vote, then. not only she can look how she wants, but she actually enjoys the attention, and that makes a difference. it's why jasnah wouldn't rank so high, imho; she always act like she's trying to set herself aloft, and this kills her attractiveness. allrianne is another good contender if she can riot the judges. 17 minutes ago, RShara said: I get that this is meant to be light and fun, but can I say that judging women by their physical appearance is making me extremely uncomfortable? first, we are not judging their physical appearance, but we are rather judging their ability to tamper with it and with a jury and second, it's not like we are deciding their worth based on it. I know some internet lechers have given the whole issue a bad name, but this is no different than any other contest of skill (and yes, being attractive is a matter of skill - of attitude, behavior - as much as looks, so it's not just a matter of "nature was generous with you") Edited February 1, 2020 by king of nowhere 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirWolfe Posted February 1, 2020 Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 I'd imagine some of the Rosharan judges would try and disqualify a few of the non Rosharan contestants for "exposing too much safehand". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
