Ask me any question in your mind about me, about life, or about anything you can think of. For example: What’s your favorite color? or what is the purpose of a rubber duck? (To answer my own questions, my favorite color is black, and rubber ducks provide entertainment for small children who think taking baths are a form of torture forced upon them by their parents.) So, any questions? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's your favorite character in the Cosmere and why? What's one thing you are worried or anxious about in regard to the future of Cosmere stories? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's your favorite magic system in the Cosmere and why? What's your favorite character in the Cosmere and why? What's one thing you are worried or anxious about in regard to the future of Cosmere stories? Under General Discussion there’s a whole AMA section. 1. I really like the Selish magic system. The AonDor is just so cool, and to me it seems much more elegant than, say, Allomancy. 2. My favorite character is Wayne. His “trades” are literally hilarious, and he’s a really interesting person. 3. The only thing I’m worried about is how far Brandon has planned ahead. He foresees to finish the Cosmere when he’s about 70, I think, and what if something happens to him? That would be terrible by itself, but that also means the overall story would go unfinished. Even though someone else would probably finish it for him, I’m worried we won’t receive the best possible Cosmere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got the name idea from Star Wars Rebels: S2 E17: "The Honorable Ones." I liked it, then realized it also fit with lots of Cosmere characters. Kaladin, for example (hence the profile photo). I decided to make it my profile and here I am. "The Honorable One" just sounded cool to me. It doesn't really say anything about me---It's just a name I picked. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The AonDor is just so cool, and to me it seems much more elegant than, say, Allomancy. Makes sense. My favorite is Hemalurgy, as it just has so many secrets to unravel and because you can use it to make just about any change to an organism you want. Plus, it's been mentioned by Brandon that it's something that transcends all other magics. Quote https://wob.coppermind.net/events/224/#e6876 Questioner I was wondering if a Hemalurgic spike would take surges, or if it could take a spren bond? Would it interact at all for that? Brandon Sanderson Hemalurgy can interact with every one of the magics. I designed it specifically in writing Mistborn for future use. Because some of the magics are so limited by their planet I wanted one that transcended all of them and Hemalurgy is very important to the entire cosmere. Its invention is a thing of great power and great danger to the entire cosmere. 20 hours ago, The Honorable One said: 2. My favorite character is Wayne. His “trades” are literally hilarious, and he’s a really interesting person. Yeah, he's pretty great I think my favorite character is either Dalinar (for his ideals and maturity. Plus there are some scenes that are funny with him) or Kelsier (as he was the first character I read about in the Cosmere and I like his charisma and personality). 20 hours ago, The Honorable One said: 3.

On graffiti (to no one in particular): “If you’re going to write on the walls, at least have the decency to spell everything right. I don’t want to look at ‘I hate this scool’ every time I use the bathroom.” I don’t know if that’s my best, but it’s one I like. 3 hours ago, Trusk'our said: Makes sense.

Yeah, it can be, particularly when the villains use it. I'd really like to see it used for more altruistic means, such as when Wax and Wayne reused some of Dumad's spikes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OokIa the Believer Posted October 11 Report Share Posted October 11 Which mistborn era is better? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ookla the Wayfarer Posted October 12 Author Report Share Posted October 12 4 hours ago, ΨιτιsτηεΒέsτ said: Which mistborn era is better? I'd have to say era one. Era two just got really confusing, since it had all the other Cosmere stuff in it. Era one was just completely Mistborn, and I like that. Era two had some great characters and plot points, but overall I prefer the OG era. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canada Lover Posted October 21 Report Share Posted October 21 @The Honorable One 1. What is your favourite book in the Stormlit Archive? 2. If you had to choose one Brandon Sanderson series to be the main character in, which one would it be? 3. Out of all of the powers in the cosmere, which one would you choose to have in real life? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Words of Radiance, all the way. Oathbringer is also good though. 2. Be the main character? Probably the Rithmatist. Everybody else goes through too much trauma. 3. Assuming I'd have the necessary materials to perform the magic, (metals, stormlight, etc.) I would choose to be an Elantrian. Drawing in the air?
