+Slowswift Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Probably not, but we Mistborn need not make sense. It's beneath us. But seriously. Vin doesn't seem like the type to just sit down and talk to some random noble, even if said noble is J.R.R. Tolkien in disguise. Soother, maybe? Or, better yet, Mistborn... 2
spencer12347 he/him Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 It would be pretty cool to imagine J.R.R. Tolkien jumping over rooftops. 4
AerionBFII he/him Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 If he was an Allomancer he would have been an emotional Allomancer...... he was such a smooth talker or an old man....
Curious Anamaximder he/him Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 If Slowswift was a Allomancer he would be a Soother or a Seeker. During his conversation with Vin he didn't seem scared at all. He could be Mistborn. That would be awesome. If he is Hoid then he could just Lightweave the Slowswift disguise. Sowswift is a mystery.
Vaidd he/him Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Was Vin burning copper when she met with him? I don't have my books on me at the moment to check, but that seems like the kind of thing she'd do while meeting with a stranger.
happyman he/him Posted April 7, 2015 Posted April 7, 2015 He has a power far more potent than Allomancy: Author fiat. Vin never stood a chance against him, so it's a good thing she didn't try.
ARARITA he/him Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 I believe he was a Lightweaver worldhopper - even knowing he was written as tribute to Tolkien - I do not believe he was Hoid - i hope we see him again
Quiver he/him Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 Slowswift as a worldhopper? ...That might be kind of cool. I was prepared to just wrte it off as "Mistborn need not make sense", but it would be kind of cool if there were some other fantasy author cameos in books. Nothing major- I don't want them to do anything big- but it would be kind of cool to see cosmere homages to Tolkien,Martin, Jordan, etc running around the universe. ...Am I the only one who is picturing, like, an Avengers team-up of the greatest fanatsy novellists ever and it is the best thing? 3
Kairos Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 You know, Tolkien would be pretty good at it. Apparently, he used to run around in Anglo-Saxon war garb and freak people out. 1
Quiver he/him Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 Guys. Tolkien was a linguist. Brandon has a magic system based entirely on words. If Slowswift gets to Sell, he is gonna hack that system so bad. 4
