Shallan’s-Squire Posted August 25 Report Share Posted August 25 Hi. I’m new here, I think Shallan is the best, and I’m ready to defend that opinion. Bring it on 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ookla the Resolute Posted August 25 Report Share Posted August 25 Okay, kaladin is easier to understand, Dalinar's self improvement arc is cool, and Jasanah wouldn't have died if not for Shallen. Additionally, Shallon's order, lightweavers, are super overrated, and Shallen and Adolin seem so scuffed together (imo). Happy? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jasnah dying because of Shallan is a moot point, but I won’t say why because of potential spoilers. I agree that Kaladin is easier to understand and Dalinar’s arc is cool, but neither of those things make them better than Shallan. I also agree that Adolin and Shallan’s relationship is weird at times, but it’s getting better imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shallen is a more complex character, and way harder to understand, and as such most don't really connect well, which means they don't like them. Although Shallen flashback scenes can be boring 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Least favorite like I wish they didn’t exist, or least favorite as in Im glad they are part of the story, but I want to see them get wrecked by the good guys? I think Moash is one of my least favorite. I like him as a character, but I hate him as a person, and I hope Kaladin gets to kill him 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shallan’s-Squire Posted August 25 Author Report Share Posted August 25 1 hour ago, Edema Ruh said: My reasons are too emotional to be explained in simple and logical words. Hmmm. Well here’s one reason I love Shallan. She didn’t need the stormfather to save her in her darkest moment, or get freed from a weird stone to realize she could do good. She didn’t need to go to the nightwatcher to overcome her past, or have her entire civilization wiped out before she turned to the good side. Shallan has done plenty of terrible things, but I believe she has truly been a good person through it all, and she chooses to be good even though she sometimes has good reason not to. She blocks out a lot of her past, but that allows her to be happy and support others while being tormented inside. She never gave up, and she just keeps going as long as she can, that’s why she’s a winner 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he has the best scenes. And he is very cool 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fieri Posted August 26 Report Share Posted August 26 While my favorite character has been Kaladin from start to finish, I have gradually grown to enjoy all of the cast. (I know, my love is cheap.) Shallan is a harder character to read, and I'm not the biggest fan of reading about espionage, but that doesn't take away from the fact that she is a good person. Anyways, welcome to the Shard 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
