Hi y'all!

[TheGenderfluidWillshaper]

I've been a Cosmere fan for a few months, figured I should join the 17th Shard already. You might know me as PurpleAndTurqouise on AO3 (posted some Earthsea, Harry Potter and Gravity Falls fanfiction there. Clarification: different fanfics.) or as Daphna-Shmuel IRL. Looking mostly for theories about Hemalurgy and queer Stormlight fanfics.

Welcome to the Shard! Which Cosmere books have you read, and who's your favorite and least favorite character?

I've read:

Elantris + Hope of Elantris

Mistborn Era 1 + the first three books in Era 2 + Secret History 

Stormlight Archive 1-4 (currently in the middle of WaT) + Dawnshard

Warbreaker

Tress and the Emerald Sea

Yumi and the Nightmare Painter

Alcatraz 1-3

The Reckoners 1 + 2

 

My favourite characters are: Shallan, cause I love characters with a hobby; Kaladin, cause reading his scenes is kinda my therapy; Dalinar, cause his premise is so original; Lift, cause I find her funny and relatable; And Hoid, cause he's, well, Hoid. 

 

My least favourite characters are: Starf Venture, cause he's a selfish idiot, an abusive father AND incredibly misogynistic; Torol Sadias that storming traitor, and (Spoiler Warning to the beginning of WaT

Gavilar Kholin. I should have known anyone so concerned about his 'legacy' isn't a true leader but a narcissist. His death serves him right for manipulating Dalinar and Venli + pushing away Navani. I don't know, maybe the Althey (unsure about the spelling) people NEEDED that manipulation so Dalinar and the Knights Radiant can turn it into truth, but it doesn't excuse it.
