Serenelle She/Her Posted April 11 Posted April 11 Hello all! I am very new to this fandom, and have been reading Sanderson since July 2025, after being introduced by my siblings, who had been pestering me for like a year. One Mistborn Final Empire later and fast forward 3 months and I have 80% of the cosmere read and have been chipping my way through the rest since finishing Stormlight. The only cosmere books (I think) I have not read is the White Sand trilogy, I don't do well with comic books (probably going to wait for the prose version whenever that's coming out, Sanderson), and then Yumi and The Nightmare Painter, which I DNFed after like 4 chapters (no offense but Painter's POV was so confusing and boring), and maybe I'll get back to it someday. As for non-cosmere works, I've only read the first two Skyward books and Sunreach (I'm actively reading the third book and plan to finish the entire series, along with Skyward flight, by summer). I have been lurking around here cluelessly (because I swear I can't navigate these forums for the life of me) for about 2 weeks before making my account, and I still have no idea what the rank thing is, among a lot of other things here, so forgive me if I accidentally put something in the wrong topic somehow, or anything of the sort. I made an account to start theorizing, because I want to see what others think about my stupid theories that are very well thought-out, but also not very well thought-out, meaning I spent a whole lot of time thinking about them, but didn't spend much time thinking about why they're absolutely not going to happen and why there dumb, if you know what I mean. That being said, I still can't wait to be part of the fandom! Spoiler Spoiler Also these things are very fun... 4
KaladinsSenseOfHumourSpren He/Him Posted April 11 Posted April 11 Welcome to the Shard! Don't worry, YatNP (Yumi and the Nightmare Painter) gets better. If could invite any 6 Sanderson characters to a party, who would you invite?
DcD25yhtdA8 he/him Posted April 11 Posted April 11 Welcome, O Great One, we are grateful for thy presence, welcome, enjoy yourself, and don't, and I repeat, don't go too far down the rabbit hole, you will never return. Spoiler Spoiler Also these are really fun.

If could invite any 6 Sanderson characters to a party, who would you invite? If I could invite any 6 Sanderson characters to a party... My first thought was just my 6 favorite characters, but half of those conversations would be very awkward, so realistically they would be characters that are not socially awkward and characters I think I would personally get along with. I would probably want someone like Khriss at my party because I feel like we could yap so much cosmere together it would be great. And then also maybe Starling because I feel like the conversation wouldn't be awkward because she's so outgoing and I feel like I could get a good conversation. Shai, because she seems like a really nice person and also I love her ideology. Marasi because I feel like we would just click, I have an interest in true crime stuff and that sort of thing and she's also an introvert so yeah. Shallan because me and her have so much in common, and also Shallan is one of my favorite characters already soo, and also putting Shallan and Shai in the same place would be interesting... I feel like those two would click so much. And then Rokke (which is technically a character btw) because idk what it is about them, but I love the Aviar. And that would be my 6 people I would invite to probably the most weird party I'd would ever have been to. 2

Don't eat the cookie, they have a metal spike in them, they are trying to steal from you. If you we're a Radiant what order would you be? Misting? Ferring?

If I were a Radiant realistically I would probably be a Truthwatcher or maybe a Lightweaver, because I am most definitely more of a scholar then of a fighter. If I were a misting I would probably be a soother or rioter, none of the others really fit me, I know, very honest person you've got here. If I were a Ferring I would probably be a Sentry (bronze), because storing sleep would actually just be awesome, or I would be a sparker (Zinc), because storing mental speed would also be great, I could just store some mental speed for those upcoming AP exams I have and I would be set.

(HEY NO AP EXAMS) [mental speed would not help me] {I need writing speed acatually} *ahem* Hai! Sparker and Slider are my favorites If you had to sentence two characters to fight to the death, who would you choose? Edited April 11 by Through the Living Sherma

Spoilers for WaT: Spoiler If I were to have two characters fight to the death, I would choose Szeth (with Nightblood of course) and Taravangian because I want Taravangian dead and gone just like Rayse. He's such a good villain and I hate him with a burning passion. 1

Through the living Wahr He/Him Posted April 13 Posted April 13 Hi, always nice to see new people. Especially if they are Truthwatchers like me. What are your favorite three Cosmere Books?
Keke They/he Posted April 13 Posted April 13 Welcome! If you could go to any planet what would it be? (Cosmere or not)
