Fullborn IRL Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 Could a brass Twinborn have the resonance of making waves of heat like a flamethrower or thermostat?
Quantus he/him Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 It's possible, I think, but RAFO'd. If growing colder would help you sink thermal energy and survive a fire, and Feruchemy makes you immune to the heat, then I think you should be able to hoard or Compound heat and tap it all at once for a pretty big flash of outward heat. You'd probably need something else, (magic or mechanical) to actually direct the heat, but at minimum you should be able to turn into a lowkey fire elemental and melt things with a touch, on par with Wax storing enough weigh to crush buildings. Quote Thoughtful Spurts If tapping heat means your own body gets hotter, does it also mean you become immune to hot temperatures so long as you're tapping it, or should you fill heat and grow colder for that to happen? Brandon Sanderson As everything in Feruchemy, you become immune to the effects of the ability only. Like weight doesn't crush you, but at the same time doesn't have a net gain in strength. Growing colder, however, would be more helpful in this regard. 17th Shard Forum Q&A (Sept. 26, 2012) Quote Eoin Burke Could a Brass twinborn compound to effectively be a human flamethrower? Also can a compounder store faster? Brandon Sanderson RAFO! #NookTalks Twitter Q&A with Barnes & Noble (Feb. 16, 2016)
