Hello world

[egg_ox]

I'm a long-time fan of the Cosmere. I've read nearly every book, and at this point I'm just interested in finding more people who share my interests. Plus I do love a good theory.

A little about me: My favorite book is The Final Empire, and my favorite magic system is Allomancy or Hemalurgy. If I could choose a power from any magic system, I'd choose Twinborn of Allomantic Pewter and Feruchemical Gold (with some healthy Hemalurgy if it suits me). My Knight Radiant order is Skybreaker and I'm a certified Moash hater.

 

My favorite characters are Jasnah, Steris, Wayne, Adolin, Vivenna and Marsh (mostly in that order).

 

Outside of the Cosmere, I'm writing a book series with a friend that is a mix of Fantasy and Sci-fi, focusing on Dragons. I enjoy D&D, The Legend of Zelda, Monster Hunter and Team Fortress 2 (I main Medic). I work on helicopters for a living, and I speak Spanish.

Welcome to the Shard! 

If you were the Vessel for a Shard, which Shard would you be and why?

If you could live on any planet in the Cosmere, would you? If so, which one?

Thank you, kindly!

And, that's a pretty interesting question right out of the gate. I think I'd choose Autonomy or Invention. They both seem the most "freeing" to me while also fitting with my personal interests.

As for planets, in a glorified view, I'd love to experience Era 1 Scadrial; it would probably be dreary, but I find it fascinating. Roshar would also be a lovely place to live, though I'd want to live in Herdaz, or maybe the Horneater peaks.

Feel free to my identity. Just remember to pay off any debts you may come across, and I get 3% of any earnings you make with my name.

 

And, duly noted. I'll start working on a device to shatter Treamayne.

Hello! Welcome to Coder's Gauntlet of Questions. Can you survive them all?

What is your fav compounding and non-compounding twinborn combos? Which radiant order's ideals do you most identify with, and which's surges do you like the best?

For compounding, my joke answer is twin Electrum just because it's inherently funny to say "I have unlimited determination". That said, Brass, Zinc and Steel are all really cool, and I'm curious to see what twin Copper can do. 

For regular Twinborn powers, my go-to is always Pewter/Gold, because you could be constantly storing health and offsetting it with a burn of Pewter. I have seen Chromium/Steel as an idea, and it would be cool to be able to quickly get close to someone and take away their powers.

For Radiants, it sometimes swaps between Skybreaker and Stoneward (with Skybreaker coming out on top more often). As for which surge is the coolest? It's hard to say. Being able to "fly" is certainly useful, and the uses for Division beyond just destroying things brings a lot of interesting capabilities. That said, Lightweaving+Soulcasting brings a lot of potential to the table, and I think some really cool things could be done.

Twin Copper has been theorized to give 10 of each memories. Each in perfect mint condition, as if they were still in the metalmind.

Some people believe that gold could even store Pewter healing.

Skybreaker/Stoneward with Lightweaver surges, eh? I'm just a Lightweaver through and through.

I think it's interesting, but why stop at 10? 16 is a better number anyway (haha, and all that). I think the power behind compounding allows for some crazy things. Maybe it could copy memories to let you have a safe version and a for-use version. Maybe it expands your mind and makes it so you don't need a Coppermind at all. I think memories are so different than any of the other Feruchemical attributes, that it's interesting to theorize about.

And, I think I could do alright in lightweaving; I do enjoy drawing and writing, after all. Perhaps my sense of justice just outweighs my sense of creativity.

Well, it has been theorized by many that compounding gives a 10x effect.
