(And it was in Krakow) WoB: On one hand it can be read as "yeah, he did burn it cause he's an Allomancer, put two and two together"... but then why avoid saying it outright, even when asked for clarification on that? Okay good, I was afraid I missed something! Do we know anything about where a kandra's personality / memories originate? If it was an aspect of the blessings, then you need to explain how TenSoon didn't suddenly gain some of OreSeur's personality. But the hemalurgic decay also seems to have affected the post-Catacendre kandras' memories. Unless, perhaps, those memories simply began to break down without the blessing helping to retain them...
Hawkido Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 (edited) A question I would like to ask Mr. Sanderson: If the GhostBloods had their powerbase in a different system would their tattoo be different? Example: if they had originated on Roshar, would the tattoo be one diamond and two interconnected diamonds or possibly three separate diamonds? Edited April 5, 2017 by Hawkido

Mistwraiths are people with a blockage between Physical and Cognitive Aspect. Spikes help to bypass that blockage. Thus, memories and personality are a function of the body but they cannot be sustained while without spikes. 1
marsoupial they/them Posted April 6, 2017 Posted April 6, 2017 Were Devotion and Dominion the only Shards to arrive at/directly influence Sel? Also, have we ever seen Jaddeth before?

This question could be really tricky. Odium was in Sel too and his influence is still there for example. We don't even know if D&D had company in old times there
Stark he/him Posted April 7, 2017 Posted April 7, 2017 What happens to a Spren whose Nahel-bonded Radiant dies of natural, or unnatural causes, with all the oaths intact and unbroken? Does it make a difference if the Spren is in physical form at time of death?

Does it make a difference if the Spren is in physical form at time of death? Fairly sure we've been told that the Spren isn't locked away if the Radiant dies of natural causes. I don't know if them being in sword form makes a difference, but Syl remembers "helping people kill" in the past, so she outlasted the deaths of her hosts.

Thanks for the reminder, I'd forgotten about that memory. So traumatic, but not as traumatic as a broken Oath. And I guess we can infer that Syl's previous host died before the Recreance, or after, but kept their Oaths?

Does it make a difference if the Spren is in physical form at time of death? There's a couple of WoBs on it Quote QUESTION After a spren has been bonded, what happens if the person it's bonded with dies? BRANDON SANDERSON It is an emotional event for the spren, but not a damaging one. As long as their oaths are unbroken. ARGENT Kind of like if a close friend dies? BRANDON SANDERSON Maybe a little more personal than that. QUESTION I guess Helaran was not bonded to a spren then? BRANDON SANDERSON Why do you say that QUESTION I saw that his Blade had a gemstone at the bottom, so that was a clue. BRANDON SANDERSON That is a very good clue. Source Quote QUESTION After a spren has been bonded, what happens if the person it's bonded with dies? BRANDON SANDERSON It is an emotional event for the sprn, but not a damaging one. As long as their oaths are unbroken. Source I don't know if there's been anything about a difference if they're in physical form but it doesn't sound like it is a serious problem.
Kingsdaughter613 she/her Posted April 9, 2017 Posted April 9, 2017 (edited) Was Demoux's cold caused by a rhinovirus or enterovirus? This may need a WoP though. Edited April 9, 2017 by Kingsdaughter613
Jondesu he/him Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 Is crem a waste product or by-product of something else happening in the highstorms? Brandon called it Shardpoop once, albeit in response to someone asking if it was spren poop, but it seems possible that it's merely a waste product from an Investiture-related occurrence within the highstorm, possible even something to do with the Perpindicularity we believe is within the storm.
Rasha Posted April 14, 2017 Posted April 14, 2017 Does the Honorblade that Szeth is given for his punishment part of the punishment itself ? If yes, doesn't that seems kind of counterproductive to give your most sacred artifact to your worst brand of criminals ?
Andy92 Posted April 14, 2017 Posted April 14, 2017 Theoretically speaking, how long could Lift wield Nightblood in an IHOP on all you can eat pancake day? 3
Dragon314 he/him Posted April 15, 2017 Posted April 15, 2017 ....there is a table of contents for a list of questions lol
Oversleep Posted April 16, 2017 Posted April 16, 2017 Would tinfoil hat prevent Ruin from controlling an Inquisitor?
Andy92 Posted April 17, 2017 Posted April 17, 2017 I thought of a more realistic question tonight than the IHOP one...lol. I wonder what would be the potential advantages of a Forger having the power of a Mistborn, specifically the ability to use Malatium to see past alternatives of others. I wonder if this could give a Forger a better ability to create Soulstamps for others and grant people alternative identities that are in some way connected to their real identity.
Dunkum he/him Posted April 17, 2017 Posted April 17, 2017 i rather liked the IHOP version for a more cosmere relevant version: if you spiked Lyft with both allomantic and ferruchemical bendalloy, so that she could compound it, would that make it so her powers were essentially limitless and/or could she directly convert that investiture into stormlight to power her surgebinding

The Shin hate any form of violence, so a sword, even a magical one, would not be considered precious by them.

These are not swords, they are the tool of the gods, left behind as a memento of the victory that ended the "Last Desolation". Left in the stone because they were not needed anymore, because mankind had won. A symbol of everlasting peace, granted by the Heralds. 1
Oversleep Posted April 18, 2017 Posted April 18, 2017 (edited) When Adonalsium Shattered... was all of it split into Sixteen Shards? I know there are only 16 Shards and no more than that, I mean whether some of it's power leaked away or something? Seems like RAFO bait. Edited April 18, 2017 by Oversleep

The One Who Connects he/him Posted April 18, 2017 Posted April 18, 2017 (edited) Could the creation of the Knights Radiant count as Jezrien's "squires" via Windrunner Resonance? Are the Heraldic Insanities related to/caused by them abandoning the Oathpact or is it a side effect of their connection with Honor that affected them after he died? I'm grasping at straws here, but stuff pops into my head and I write it down here eventually. Edited April 18, 2017 by The One Who Connects Could, not Would

So far: 9 Lists comprising 137 total Questions You can't possibly think I came up with the 43 question Nalthis Questionnaire on the spot it was all written down prior to the post. But I will still put the questions here, so that people can see them to ask during Q&A's or tell me there's already an answer. Edited April 19, 2017 by The One Who Connects
