Yeah, how would the Investiture know when someone has achieved something? Does Cultivation hand-pick people like Endowment? What power do Stories give here?

Or Cultivation could do a spren-type thing where splinters get to decide.

well, bascially, in this planet, investiture works differently. The people of Uviab call investiture Stories (see where im going) and has the explained properties below. If you ammass enough stories, then upon death, you will become a Cognitive Shadow that are sustained with these stories. On Uviab, stories make up everything (this is what cultivation will use the supernova for) and can be edited if you have enough power. This leads to a forgery-type situation where you can edit the stories of something to literally just do forgery.

You could use Connection and Identity as the power source (or, rather, the mechanism through which the actual power source determines where to go), using the ideas and thoughts of others about your deeds and reputation.

Yeah that. I was also thinking I would pull a Preservation and directly Invest all of my humans.

Oh yeah, microkinesis still happens there

The people from Yolen are still alive. Barely, but alive.

Uhh yeah

Also I will be (maybe) changing microtekinesis bc I don't know that and don't want to deal with something I don't know.

I also know of a cool slightly similar ability I could replace with it that fits with Uviab's theme more.

I've got a question for you. Since all the shards are deranged in a way, and aspects stripped of context, and are bad- how do you take Divine Love and Compassion to the extreme?

Good question.

Love even the most pointless or unworthy things, I guess.

an all-loving god is such not a bad thing though 😭
"Devotion loves all things- even the tiny things, the way the wind goes through the wildflower, the way a child smiles as the sun peaks through the clouds... Frost!" he continues, smiling. "She even loves the way the refuse of the whales smells!"

Well, I don't know.

I guess this can make her like Preservation though, when something she loves is killing some other thing she loves.

That's what I thought- but Glass described her as not taking crap from anyone, so I'm tempted that the vessel will move it away from unending compassion.

Anyways, since Virtuosity is gonna be all over, the shard will be co-opting and acting within several magic systems. 

The vessel himself is going to be doing things.

how exactly are your Surges Dominion-y acquisition wise?

I suppose they are justified by either exacting control over or subjecting oneself to the control of another. Environmental would entail ‘taking’ and suppressing a power from outside the self, or having that power given directly to you by a user of Direct-Adhesion, and thereby be subject to their will, or risk the revoking of your Surge.

Nahel Acquisition would be similar. Either subjecting oneself to the service of a godspren, or by pressing a lesser spren into your own spiritual service.

In regards to to your comment on the ‘Odium stuff’ section of the document, could you elaborate upon “The innate Investiture of your people will have to be quite high.”?

This is good then.

For Odium, it's because to pass emotion like Breath you'll need Investiture.

That is but one of potential opportunities  being explored, I assure you. However! Is it not also possible that there exists small portions of the mortal soul which would correspond to emotional capability (zinc Hemalurgy is noted to steal emotional fortitude), and those could be drawn upon as fuel, irrespective of any extra added Investiture?
