JohnTMS He/Him Posted May 26 Posted May 26 Hello all, Super excited to finally join up here on the forums! Suppose I'm done being that much of a hermit to pop out of the woodwork every once in a while to throw out my 2 steel coins, so to speak. Still have a handful more Cosmere books to read before I'm fully caught up, Yumi and the Nightmare Painter The Sunlit Man Isles of the Emberdark but sans anything from Fires of December, I don't mind spoilers in the slightest! Hope everyone reading has a phenomenal day
Through the Living Hopper He/Him Posted May 26 Posted May 26 Welcome to the Shard! You've arrived at the best place on the Internet, filled with the best people, the best desserts, and the best murderous animals! Here are a couple of tips to help you settle in to your new place as a cog in the Grand Apparatus that is the Shard: 1. Join S(anderson) E(limination). 2. Familiarize yourself with the most important forums: SE, Cosmere Q&A, and SE. 4. HAVE FUN! Make friends! 5. Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler The more people you interact with, the more people it's acceptable for you to follow, and then those people will feel obliged to follow you. And then you get rep and cool yellow words under your name. 1

Hope everyone reading has a phenomenal day We're in about the same position reading-wise in the Cosmere, I also need Tress of the Emerald Sea to be complete, just waiting on my library to get a copy. (I'll buy one eventually, but money's tight) That being said, I've been asking everyone, if you could bring any two characters together from any of the books, who would they be? No limitations in time/space/Investiture, Super Smash Bros style. My example is Wayne and The Lopen. Those two together would be hilarious! 1

If you could shadow one character for a week, who would you follow around? All-time favorite would have to go to Wayne, hands down. On the flipside of that, #stormmoash For a long time I would have answered your latter question with Sazed, pre or post-Ascension doesn't really matter to me. But given some recent rumblings in my noggin, I would change my answer to Khriss.

Honestly that's such a solid answer, that I'm having a hard time coming up with one that I prefer over it. I'll have to mull over that one further! 23 hours ago, Through The Living Grub said: Beautiful pfp. Welcome to the Shard! What has been your single most favorite Sanderson book so far? Favorite series as a whole? Thank you! I only figured some MTG-related fanart of one of my favorite characters would pair well with my MTG-slanted username! (Jace, The Mind Sculptor is the parallel, if anyone happening to mosey by is going 'huh?') Series as a whole so far, Stormlight not even close. I will go to my storming grave defending W&T - it's only the halfway point, people! While I find it impossible to pick a singular book, I do have an all-time favorite reveal, and I guess therefore one could argue favorite book since it's everything that folds into the reveal that made it so phenomenal for me on a first read, and to this day...
