lyssie95 she/her Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Hey, do Wax and Wayne count as Terrisman? They are at least part-terris... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windrunner he/him Posted April 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Oh for the days when the only races on Scadrial were skaa, noble, and Terris. I'd say that Wax probably falls into noble, considering he is a descendant of Breeze and Allriane who were both nobles and he also rules a noble house. Wayne could probably be Terris, since he apparently looks enough like one that he could imitate a Terris butler. The problem is that I'm not sure how much the old terms for races apply anymore. The nobles and skaa were mostly homogenized in the Final Empire. I don't even know if skaa still exist anymore. Until we get more information, I'd go with Wax as a noble, and Wayne as Terris. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lyssie95 she/her Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 You can put multple abilities etc., why not multiple races? Maybe Wax as Noble, Terrisman and Wayne as Terrisman? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voidus Posted April 29, 2012 Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 On the subject of the magic infoboxes I think that considering we only have 6 or so that we know about with enough depth to do a good job it seems to me that we had best wait for a few more stormlight books to reveal some more about Voidbinding, the Old Magic and possibly a third system although actually now that I think about it could we add a more general magic infobox for separate powers? only really useful for the Metallic Arts and Surgebinding so far but I think it could definitely be useful and I've wanted to have a look at all the metallic arts for a while. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos he/him Posted April 29, 2012 Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 Yeah, we won't put much information about those other magics. actually now that I think about it could we add a more general magic infobox for separate powers? What do you mean by this? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voidus Posted April 29, 2012 Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 I was thinking that if it weren't just for the system (allomancy) but for the seperate powers (Iron, Steel, Pewter, three lashings, etc.) it could be more useful, especially once we know more about the separate orders of the KR 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos he/him Posted April 29, 2012 Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 Maybe. What would be in an individual power's infobox? A problem with that would be that not all magics have distinct powers like Surges or Allomantic abilites. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voidus Posted April 29, 2012 Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 Yeah that's something I thought of too, bit hard to do one for every Aon and Command. Not sure what to do about that, well obviously we could make a separate article for every known Command and Aon but I think that's a little too much Maybe two separate Infoboxes then? One for the system and one for individual powers (If they exist) I just think that once the SA fleshes out a bit more there are potentially 30 powers as well as the 48 from Mistborn (Counting each of the Metallic Arts seperately) so around 80 seperate powers and I think they could benefit from having some standardised info (Which Shard powers it, which Shardworld it's on, mostly the same as the ones for the System but perhaps a few seperate ones (known users perhaps?) and images for the symbols representing it. I'm sure I could think up some more ideas. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe ST he/him Posted April 29, 2012 Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 I'd just leave all the new characters' races out until we get distinct names for them. They are no longer either skaa or Terris or even Noble, you could probably call them Elendian? But until we get some canonical terms, best to leave it out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windrunner he/him Posted April 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 You're right Joe, it's probably too early to tell. They might not even have a demonym for themselves since they think that they're the only group of people on Scadrial. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
