timemagetim he/him Posted June 8, 2014 Posted June 8, 2014 I need a good old fashioned fight. I want cannon characters from Sanderson's works. I can fight as Kaladin, Sazeth, Vashar, Shallan, Adolin or Eshoni. I can also be some unspecified awakener, mistborn, shardbearer, radiant, futrechemist etc.... We can have up to 4 fighters including myself. Rules will be established later.
Quiver he/him Posted June 8, 2014 Posted June 8, 2014 You know what? Fight scenes are my single weakest piece of writing, and something I need practice with. I'd be willing to give this a go, if you're up for it. Not sure who I'd use though. Would you prefer sticking to canon characters, and if so,many preferences for the magic you'd like to fight against?
timemagetim he/him Posted June 8, 2014 Author Posted June 8, 2014 (edited) I would really love to fight with Shallan if you can make that work but against Sazeth or Kalqdin would be fantastic. I think that a storm runner fighting a mistborn would be interesting or a mistborn vs an awakener. We also need to take into account where exactly it is were fighting.

Quiver he/him Posted June 8, 2014 Posted June 8, 2014 Shallan is actually one of my favourite characters of SA, so of you want to fight her, I'm fine with it. I think it would have to be a bit more complex than a duelling arena fight though. Just besides the fact that Shallan's abilities aren't especially combat-.oriented (yet), I imagine a war of subterfuge between her and Vin or Shai would be awesome. Basically, I'll choose whatever you want to fight against. I'd say it's probably best to sort out combatants and the fighting style before picking an arena though.
timemagetim he/him Posted June 8, 2014 Author Posted June 8, 2014 I dont know Shai but i would love to do the whole Subterfuge War between Vin and Shallan would be fantastic. I dont know where we would fight though.
Jo and the Bush all/any Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 The Idrian Slums. It's a Neutral Territory that both Benefit from, but neither know well.
Jo and the Bush all/any Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 (edited) The Investiture Equivelent to Vin's Metals. Just Ignore me By the Way. Edited June 9, 2014 by Hello. My name is Joe
Swimmingly he/him Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 The Investiture Equivelent to Vin's Metals. Just Ignore me By the Way. I'm pretty sure Scadrial is much lower Investiture - and much more efficient than Roshar. The powers are more focused and subtler. So, Vin might Sooth Shallans's wariness walking into an ambush. On the other hand, does Shallan get Pattern? If she does, Vin should get OreSeur.
Jo and the Bush all/any Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 Swim, are you Participating in this? Or is it just Quiver and Time? Cause I'm willing to be TenSoon/OreSeur if you'll be Pattern. 1
Swimmingly he/him Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 (edited) No, I'm just making suggestions in the set-up. Actaully, I might. Edited June 9, 2014 by Swimmingly 1
Quiver he/him Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 (edited) If we want to get very technical and elaborate, maybe we should try drafting someone in to referree/moderate it. You know, rule on what information either of us has, and make sure it doesn't end up in a game of one upsmanship. And Joe, you and Swim as OreSeur and Pattern would be fantastic. Just sayin' lol Edited June 9, 2014 by Quiver
timemagetim he/him Posted June 9, 2014 Author Posted June 9, 2014 Having a separate person playing pattern and OreSeur would be fantastic. And yes having a referee would be beneficial as well. I think we can give Shallan a bit less Stormlight because she will still have her Shardblade/knife.
Swimmingly he/him Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 By the way, what can Pattern do? - Decoding - Unlocking - Illusion-anchor - Voice-imitation - Manipulating small objects - Reconnaissance Anything else?
Swimmingly he/him Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 Oh yeah! And bad jokes! And probably math, given that his real name seems to be an equation or complex ratio.
Quiver he/him Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 ...I can't help but notice that, as awesome as a four-player partner spy war might be, it is pretty much the antithesis of the "good old fashioned fight" you asked.
Swimmingly he/him Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 Welcome to the 17th Shard. Simplicity? What's simplicity?
Quiver he/him Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 Simplicity? Which world is that on? Has it been published yet?
timemagetim he/him Posted June 10, 2014 Author Posted June 10, 2014 hahaha i dont mind that this sounds like a lot of fun. im rather unfamiliar with OreSuer. explain that a bit please?
Swimmingly he/him Posted June 10, 2014 Posted June 10, 2014 He's a kandra. Can't recall which Blessings he ended up with, but never less, shape shifter.
Jo and the Bush all/any Posted June 10, 2014 Posted June 10, 2014 My Name is OreSeur. I am a Kandra, with the Blessing of Potency. I may ingest the Bones of the Dead, to assume their Shape. Currently, Lady Vin has me take the Body of a WolfHound. Due to the First Contract. I may not harm a Human. I may aid Lady Vin, by supplying her with Metals, and scouting, But I may not attack.
Swimmingly he/him Posted June 10, 2014 Posted June 10, 2014 I am Pattern. I am a spren. I work with patterns - small-scale manipulations such as locks as well as codes. I do not have enough of a physical presence to attack, but I can scout and provide a base for Illuminations. If Shallan uses me as a Shardblade, I can shapeshift to any weapon, but lose my subtler abilities. Too overpowered?
