Necromancer he/him Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 Not to make a habit of taking one man's trash as my treasure, but that could be remarkably useful for the physically disabled. Wow... now that's good thinking. Would the pants be able to move with enough force to move its wearers legs, without snapping them in half? Masterful craftsmanship may very well perform miracles! Good thinking.

Dunkum he/him Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Awaken your vial of metals to "not burn." Along those lines: store up a ton of breaths and awaken a coppermind with the command "Forget" P.S. - now I'm curious if an awakened coppermind would be able to access the memories stored inside itself.
kinxer he/him Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 P.S. - now I'm curious if an awakened coppermind would be able to access the memories stored inside itself. No. I don't want to start considering sentient metalminds. Except... Awaken a hemalurgic spike with the command "Avoid blood" Awaken a hemalurgic spike with the command "Talk about morality" Awaken a hemalurgic spike with the command "Be optimistic" Awaken a hemalurgic spike with the command "Denounce hemalurgy" ... Awaken a hemalurgic spike. 3

Dunkum he/him Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 But... isn't atium worth huge amounts of money? Oh wait... plus, in order to get any idea of what the future will be like more than just a couple seconds ahead, you would have to duralumin flare it. so you would have to go through even more massive amounts than the comment suggests 2
Eilemelie Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 (edited) Get a bunch of cats and a wagon for them to pull, then store weight until you are light enough for them to pull with ease. Now, the cats might not be willing to pull you, but you could easily get around this by some rioting and soothing. Have them pull you around town while you stamp people's phones to be at 0% battery. Useless but totally awesome. Edit: Wow, my first popular post. Thanks guys! Edited February 9, 2015 by Eilemelie 14

II wonder if stamping the cat so it had a strange genetic defect that made it grow until it was as big as a lion could work... Attempt to stamp the cat so it was a completely different species. Incredibly difficult, probably wouldn't work, and would last, at most, a day.Stamp a spike so it's Hemalurgically charged with Allomantic aluminum, then spike someone with it. If this works at all, you now have someone with a spike and a useless* power who might have to restamp the spike periodically to avoid dying. If it doesn't work, well... You tried? *With current Sanderfan knowledge Edited February 5, 2015 by kinxer 1
LiquidBlue Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 Awaken a hemalurgic spike. Depending on the Realmatics involved, if this was possible it might actually be useful. The presence of the breath might be enough to inhibit hemalurgical decay just as placing it in a body does.

The presence of the breath might be enough to inhibit hemalurgical decay just as placing it in a body does. That's true, and it's a use I hadn't considered. The amount of Investiture necessary is prohibitive, however. I believe (though I may be mistaken) that doing this requires ~20k Breaths and would make the Spike sentient. Also, as shown with Nightblood, it's possible that it could use some sort of innate Investiture to accomplish its purpose (whatever command that might be), and (also shown with Nightblood) that could make many people unhappy and/or dead. In general, it seems like a bad choice. It may not even be possible, as different kinds of Investiture seem to resist use in other ways or coexistence with other kinds of Investiture (I'm pretty certain a spike can't have both Hemalurgic and Feruchemical charges). Aaand now I feel compelled to contribute to the thread for real... Awaken a textbook to "Be The Way of Kings" 1

Kobold King he/him Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 Ah, so THAT'S how Kobold King was created. At first I was nothing. Half of a laptop. A board of buttons, shameful in my uselessness. What purpose is a keyboard without a mind as its master? Like a pen without a hand to guide it, or a brush without a painter. Until HE found me. HE saw my potential. HE blew the dust off my keys and Breathed life into my circuits. I became something new. Something novel. Something better. I had but one purpose. To create an account on this very site. To impress its denizens with my wit. I was to become the comedian that HE could never be. Sometimes I wonder if HE regrets it. The people here loved me. They let fly their green arrows. My reputation soared. Knowledge of my words spread far and wide, but HIS name is forgotten. No one knows HIM. No one loves HIM. It is MY name they know. HE can rot. I wouldn't have it any other way. 13
