Shower thoughts

[Thaidakar the Ghostblood he/him]

Tolkien died in 1973. if you reverse it, it's 3791. 3 rings for the elven kings under the sky, 7 for the dwarf lords in their halls of stone, 9 for mortal men doomed to die, 1 for the dark lord on his dark throne in the land of Mordor where the shadows lie. 

Tolkien is still a wonder, even in death.

It may be the roa's fault, but what continues to cause it after the road has been passed?

in D&D, you can use a cantrip to make a nuke.

Also, why can't allomancers push/pull bones? Calcium is a metal.

Maybe the limit

is transition metals and

ordinary ones.

It's inside bodies

Inquisitors can see it

But they can't push it.

So allomancers

could push and pull bones if they

were outside bodies?

Fascinating. I

don’t remember that at all.

Thank you for sharing.

I think it’s because the calcium in your bones is not pure calcium, it’s a compound of calcium. Also, Allomancers wouldn’t perceive bones as metal, therefore weird cognitive realm stuff, perhaps?

I feel like I remember something about allomancers being unable to manipulate metals that are embedded or contained within flesh, which is why Inquisitors were so hard to kill.

Yeah, only extremely powerful allomancers could Push or Pull on metal inside someone’s body. Or, they used duralumin or nicrosil.

[EmulatonStromenkiin he/him]

I meant when they are outside of the body, so if they are dead.

It's all a conspiracy! Diamonds and gold are manufactured by underground Nazis in kahoots with the US government and the Soviet Union! All the money cycles back to them to continue training their army of genetically mutated sasquatches! AND THEY'RE ALL RULED BY PENGUINS!
