FireSlayer she/her Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 So I'm not sure exactly what I should say here...no good with this sort of thing. I'm a girl, in case you were wondering, and FireSlayer is the first Sanderson ship I ever floated. Then I was quickly sucked into Mistborn (Hero of Ages killed me) and now I'm waiting to read Words of Radiance. Aside from being a Sanderfan or whatever the official fandom name is, I'm also a Tolkiendil, Marvelite, and Whovian (working through season 4). I write fanfic, I write other things, I read tons, I ship OTPs and brOTPs, I play the piano and I'm an ISFJ. Also a collector of my friends' Myers-Briggs types. =) I dunno. Anything else you were wondering? =) 7
Lindel he/him Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 (edited) Welcome to the forum! Have an upvote. Have you read Warbreaker, Alloy of Law, Elantris, and Emperor's Soul? Oh, and just a bit of advice. If a stranger offers you cookies, don't take them! Unless you aspire to give your life for science... Edited June 17, 2015 by Lindel

I've read Elantris and have AoL on hold at the library. *nods* o_o Thanks for the warning.... xD Hello! Have an upvote and a cookie. Thank you and...er...what kind of cookie? *wavers* Welcome! Have a cookie! o_o Heavens. That looks really good.... *mutters* Must--resist! 1
Tetriona she/her Posted June 18, 2015 Posted June 18, 2015 Welcome, welcome, welcome! It is always nice to meet a fan of both Brandon Sanderson AND J.R.R. Tolkien! I myself am an ENFP! As to anything else we all were wondering......ummm...... Who's your favorite female character in any of Sanderson's books? Male character?
Redbird he/him Posted June 18, 2015 Posted June 18, 2015 We have all kinds of cookies, and what is you favorite magic system?
+Wax he/him Posted June 18, 2015 Posted June 18, 2015 Welcome and have an upvote! Besides Brandon, what's your reading profile?

I myself am an ENFP! As to anything else we all were wondering......ummm...... Who's your favorite female character in any of Sanderson's books? Male character? Urgh, in all the things I've read? Female--well, Vin's pretty awesome, but so was Sarene. Male--oh sparks. Cody, David, Elend, Zane, Sazed, Spook, Kaladin...yeah. I have a hard time picking faves, in case you couldn't tell. xD We have all kinds of cookies, and what is you favorite magic system? The whole fabrial/soulcaster thing's pretty amazing, but I'd probably lean towards Aon Dor. That is, assuming you were looking for a purely Sanderson answer. Also I did my research and I think I'll abstain on the cookies for now, tempting though they might look. Welcome and have an upvote! Besides Brandon, what's your reading profile? Tolkien, the classics (love Jane Eyre and anything by Oscar Wilde), a select few Christian authors like Janette Oke and George MacDonald, H. Rider Haggard's historical adventures, and then recently I've been sampling YA fiction since it's supposedly for roughly my age group. Don't like Divergent (though I'm still gonna finish the series), Artemis Fowl's not bad aside from the crude humor, love Gail Carson Levine and Shannon Hale, probably not going to try Hunger Games but who knows...yeah. I'm nearly as much an omnivore in the fictional sense as I am in the culinary sense. And I'm sorry if that was way more than you wanted to know, I can go on for a while about books. xD Edited June 18, 2015 by FireSlayer

That is, assuming you were looking for a purely Sanderson answer. AonDor? But you've read Mistborn! How can your answer not be Allomancy? The perfect balance of awesome powers and simple limitations, the virtually scientific laws governing those powers, the cleverness in the way the characters are able to take those powers and maximize their utility, the way that we as fans have been able to analyze the magic and find inconsistencies that are answered in future books... Sorry. Anyway, if you haven't read Warbreaker, do it. It's great!

Allomancy's definitely way amazing (I've decided what types of Misting I'd be both by personality and personal desire), but I'm not a fighter and the whole drawing runes and precision and modifications of Aon Dor really appeals to my mathematical and kind-of-not-really-artsy side (basically the things I draw best are Tengwar characters xD).
