Spearguy Posted May 26, 2023 Report Share Posted May 26, 2023 (edited) Just wanted to see who is viewed as the most dangerous character, I put both the Heralds and Five scholars on this list due to the fact that I wanted them on here but it would have made it a bit of a mess. Dangerous in this context isn't how strong they are in a fight, it is more so about how much harm they could cause on a wide scale.

Ishar is very dangerous, Nightblood is dangerous (he killed a Vessel). Rashek would be there high on the list, but he's dead now. Dalinar as a Bondsmith (not yet, he's too green now) Hoid is the most knowledgeable person in Cosmere with lots of powers, he can mess things up even though he can't kill or harm. There are dragons and Avatars too. God-King has a lot of Breaths, he can make an army of Lifeless with that. Marsh has Atium. Kelsier has a big secret organization messing with other planets, the Ire was very close to stealing Preservation. And Rysn has a Dawnshard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I debated a bit on whether to put nightblood on the poll but decided that the threat that nightblood can pose varies wildly depending on who's wielding him.

Quote Nightblood is dangerous (he killed a Vessel). Nightblood is powerless unless wielded, and to kill a Vessel required quite unique combination of events. I don't think he can do much large scale harm, he is at the end of the a sword, albeit one-hit kill one. Quote Rashek would be there high on the list, but he's dead now. Rashek is one man with a lot of personally dangerous powers, but he is still just one guy, and with some limitations (e.g. needs metalminds which can be taken away by properly utiliized Invested Art). Quote Dalinar as a Bondsmith (not yet, he's too green now) Yep, though I would say his position as 'stand-in' for Honor is what makes him more dangerous than just being a Bondsmith. Quote Hoid is the most knowledgeable person in Cosmere with lots of powers, he can mess things up even though he can't kill or harm. Hoid is quite dangerous when he wants, but he is not as smart as he thinks he is, as evidenced by RoW. But he is up-there when it comes to dangerousness, if he decides to actually try for something. Quote There are dragons and Dragons seem non-interventions, so they would not pose much danger. How dangerous they would be is a question. Quote Avatars too. Avatars are sort of minor Shard, less power, but more leevay in how to use it (possibly). Quote God-King has a lot of Breaths, he can make an army of Lifeless with that. He can have about 50 000 Lifeless if he uses up all his Breath. Not that large an army in grand scheme of things. Quote Marsh has Atium. Per WoB barely enough Atium to stay alive, he cannot do much with it. And even then, Atium would not make him that influential. Quote Kelsier has a big secret organization messing with other planets Not that big, based on what we see in SA and TLM, it has maybe a few dozen members, if that. Quote the Ire was very close to stealing Preservation. Organization, not individual. Quote ,And Rysn has a Dawnshard. And a Change dawnshard at that, that could lead to some 'fun' if properly powered. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightblood is less dangerous than Bondsmith unbound: Spoiler Scott Beckman (paraphrased) Which is scarier... Which is more dangerous: a sword that wants to destroy evil, or a Bondsmith with no bounds? Brandon Sanderson (paraphrased) A Bondsmith with no bounds. Scott Beckman (paraphrased) Can an unbound Bondsmith take that sword's... ability for himself? Brandon Sanderson (paraphrased) Not exactly, but something similar. Probably not what you're thinking, but he could essentially take what that sword is, yes. Miscellaneous 2022 (Sept. 17, 2022) I think Ishar or Hoid are prime candidates. But Kelsier is too, not because he can fight, but because he has Ghostbloods, he can use them to start rebellions, assassinate people, mess up words etc - if it is this kind of mess we're talking about, then Kelsier would likely win. Just give him enough time and he will topple another government or god. 9 minutes ago, therunner said: Ishar is also insane and not very effective (at the moment).

Tamriel Wolfsbaine Posted May 26, 2023 Report Share Posted May 26, 2023 I had to go with the 5 scholars. I would just say Vasher with Nightblood and the Peacegiver's gift.

His insanity makes him even more dangerous and unpredictable. Plus he controls Tukar and Shinovar. The OP asks for most ;dangerous' individual, where dangerous means capable of large scale damage. Ishar due to his madness is relatively locally focused, and not really able to affect large change. Only reason he rules Tukar and Shinovar is that they worship Heralds, and he happens to be one. But opinions may vary of course. Quote Yes, but that's a future potential not right now. No, that is right now. It is the reason why Odium deals with him, why Dalinar can propose Contenst of Champions. He is bonded to the largest remnant of Honor, that has been merged with CS of Tanavast, this is what makes him special even among Bondsmiths. Quote Add to this his control over Koloss army, Inquisitors and Kandra, and the whole Scadrial population under his rule - he can mess things up in a more general way than 1v1 fight. Individually dangerous. Quote One of them is. We know nothing about the others. And one dragon clearly was very active, she is a Shard now. One is isolations (Frost), one is Shard that seems to 'nudge' things at most and otherwise stays hands off (Koravellium Avast), and Spoiler Last one researches Aethers and has little interest in other events. So 2/3 are seemingly not interested in affecting things, and the last one does so only in very limited fashion (possibly due to Intent). Quote He also has Phantoms. If he were to invade a minor world, he would conquer it. Again, individually dangerous, is the question posed in OP Quote It really depends on what kind of danger we're talking about. In combat or in general? Per OP: "Dangerous in this context isn't how strong they are in a fight, it is more so about how much harm they could cause on a wide scale. " Quote There are dozens on Roshar alone. They have agents on many other worlds as well. No there are not. There is Iyatil, Mraize, and few other agents. However, considering how Rosharan branch operates, a lot of those are not full Ghostblood members, more catpaws. I mean, Shallan was not yet Ghostblood, despite how important things she was handling. They seem to be active on 4-5 worlds (based on what is said in TLM), so even if they have ~20 agents on each world, they are barely a hundred of them. Quote Then unknown leader of Ire or whatever. Do they have one? They could be organized democratically, like Fused are for all we know. Quote I feel under fire, I've just listed potential candidates, nothing more Sorry about that I merely disputed why some would not make sense, considering the conditions in OP (individually dangerous, where dangerous is how much harm they can cause on large scale). Edit: @Quantus Quote And you think that makes him Less Dangerous? Yes. He can be accidentally dangerous and quite a lot, but if he actually was as smart as he thinks himself, he would be faar more dangerous in my opinion. Fool can ef-things up, but genius can purposefully break things far more effectively. Quote If "Dangerous" is the largest disparity between Power and Experience or Understanding, I think Dalinar or Rysn are leading the pack. Good argument. Quote Honorable mention to whomever made Azure's blade and thus could theoretically make a rival to Nightblood, not knowing anything else about them. Imagine a more overtly antagonistic Command, "UnRavel Everything" or something. Nightblood required Shardic intervention it seems, so most likely you could not replicate it.

Dangerous in this context isn't how strong they are in a fight, it is more so about how much harm they could cause on a wide scale. I see "harm on a wide scale" and "isn't how strong they are in a fight" - this for me means more than a single guy walking around and killing people with his magical powers, it means about control and influence one can have, followers he can amass, armies he can muster, charisma he has. Napoleon was a very dangerous person not because he could walk around Europe by himself and destroy any army opposing him, but because he had armies of loyal soldiers ready to die for him and charisma to inspire them. Hitler wasn't "individually dangerous", he was dangerous because of his charisma and fanatical followers he had. For me those things are important. Very important. Could Kelsier walk up to TLR and kill him? No, never. And yet he abolished him and killed him indirectly. Not because he was "individually dangerous" but because he was a charismatic smart person who with limited resources created a rebellion against him and trained Vin who killed him. That's why Kelsier is dangerous. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, that we know off, but she is still quite hands off by Shard standards.

The Stick Posted May 27, 2023 Report Share Posted May 27, 2023 If Kelsier and the Ghostbloods know how to make Trellium-Harmonium nukes, I would say they are the most dangerous. Otherwise, Susebron is unstoppable. Sure, his awakening is seemingly nowhere near as powerful as other Invested Arts. However, he is above ninth heightening. This means he can awaken steel. He needs only 20,000 breaths to retain ninth heightening. He has 50,000 breaths. Awakening steel costs 1,000 breaths. This means he could make 30 Nightbloods. One Nightblood is enough to terrify Hoid and the vessels. 30 unsheathed Nightbloods could probably cripple a Shard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, Endowment was involved in creation of Nightblood, so Susebron cannot do that. At most he can create 30ish of Awakened Swords like Azure has, and those are vastly less powerful, more on the level of Deadeye Shardblade. Highly likely Nightblood is unique, and no sword like him will be created again, unless Shard gets involved. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Stick Posted May 27, 2023 Report Share Posted May 27, 2023 (edited) Ishar is terrifying because he is a crazy swordsman, unchained bondsmiths, has tons of forbidden knowledge, and is completely insane.

Duxredux Posted May 28, 2023 Report Share Posted May 28, 2023 I'm voting Ishar. Look at his track record. He's the only non-Shard we know that literally made a planet uninhabitable. He founded the Knights Radiant and convinced a lot of very important people, including Honor, that the Oathpact was a good idea (getting immortality and the Bondsmith Honorblade in the bargain I might add) after they knew he nuked a planet. His idea trapped Odium for thousands of years. Now he's unhinged and an unchained Bondsmith. And he still just convinced Dalinar, whose bond to the Stormfather he just tried to steal, to meet up with him in Shinovar. His knack for getting people who already know how his plans turn out to go along with his next scheme is perhaps as scary as his Bondsmith powers. The dude wants to become Adonalsium. Possibly even more than Odium, they shouldn't let Ishar out of the Rosharan system, especially if he had his Honorblade and was still insane. Maybe not even if he was sane. His ambition, knowledge, chutzpah, charisma, and power are all formidable. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cometaryorbit Posted May 29, 2023 Report Share Posted May 29, 2023 (edited) If "(old version)" means Blackthorn Dalinar not Bondsmith Dalinar, and the no-Shards rule means we get the non-Ascended versions of Vin, Kelsier, and Taravangian and TLR without the Well... ...then probably Ishar, for the reasons @Duxredux stated. Though TLR in his younger days - say a century or two after his conquest, before he got overconfident and bored - would give him a run for his money - especially if "on a wide scale" means TLR gets his mind-controlled koloss armies and a vast empire that he rules as god-king. TFE is probably larger and more powerful than Tukar, though we know so little about Tukar. Outside the listed people, it depends on what counts as too close to a Shard - Threnody's Evil killed a continent.
