Oudeis he/him Posted October 22, 2014 Posted October 22, 2014 Words of Radiance spoiler. Is there a difference between the common Shardblades based on which Spren they were originally? A difference between living Shardblades?
Kurkistan he/him Posted October 22, 2014 Posted October 22, 2014 Words of Radiance spoiler. Is there a difference between the common Shardblades based on which Spren they were originally? A difference between living Shardblades? We're in Cosmere theories, all released books are fair game. That aside, do you mean besides the superficial? Because Pattern and Syl's blades look different (specifically Pattern has geometric pattersn, Syl is more swirly, IIRC. I believe the patterns are also different colors.)
Oudeis he/him Posted October 22, 2014 Posted October 22, 2014 I meant if they had actual different powers. I suppose aesthetic concerns exist, as well. Dalinar is flung through the air, and he says that the armor righted itself, as though it knew which way way down. I wondered if this were a trait of the Order his Plate was originally a part of, or a thing that all Plate has in common.
Oudeis he/him Posted October 22, 2014 Posted October 22, 2014 (edited) What would happen if you Leeched a listener in slaveform? Warform? Stormform? What if you Leeched an Awakened object? An Awakener? A Lifeless? A Returned? Edited October 22, 2014 by Outis
Mailliw73 he/him Posted October 22, 2014 Posted October 22, 2014 What defines a High Epic? How does Tia's tier system of Epics work?
Oudeis he/him Posted October 22, 2014 Posted October 22, 2014 I thought David defined High Epic for us as any Epic with access to one of the Prime Invulnerability powers...
Mailliw73 he/him Posted October 22, 2014 Posted October 22, 2014 I thought that too, but then Voidus posted this quote from Steelheart: But most are beneath your notice. You target High Epics, and there are only a few hundred of those in Newcago. Among them, only a couple dozen have a prime invincibility I just tweeted Brandon and Peter to see if they would answer and Peter gave the response of: "You may find helpful answers in FIREFIGHT." 1
Oudeis he/him Posted October 23, 2014 Posted October 23, 2014 D'aw, I don't get replies to my tweets... I tweeted an awesome picture with an adorable backstory, too...
Mailliw73 he/him Posted October 23, 2014 Posted October 23, 2014 Brandon himself tweeted back and said it is where you have to negate the Epics power somehow to kill them. I tweeted back asking how that differed from a prime invincibility though. 2
Oudeis he/him Posted October 23, 2014 Posted October 23, 2014 Q: Are the Parshendi of Odium? A: Not originally. Q: Are the Parshendi of Cultivation? A: Not originally. Q: Are the Parshendi of Honor? A: No Source Could the Parshendi ever become "Of honor"?
Moogle Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 When Vasher is 'hiding' his Divine Breath, is he still just as resistant to other Investiture, like having metal in him Pushed?
Jo and the Bush all/any Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 Would Nightblood be Invested enough to Pierce Shardplate? Could you use Nightblood as a Hemalurgic Spike? Can Nightblood cut the Shades in the Forests of Hell? Why did they Name the Sword Nightblood? Assuming Nightblood were made of Allomantic/Feruchemic Metals, Woud Sazed be able to Store attributes in him? What happens if a Man in Shardplate wielded Nightblood? Can a Chromium Misting Destroy the Investiture in Nighblood? What would happen if you unsheathed Nightblood than Through it into a Shardpool? Can Nightblood be taken to Shadesmar? A Shardblade Can't cut Nightblood because of it's his Investiture. Could a Shardblade cut throgh Nightblood's Sheath? What would Happen if Nightblood was wielded by a 'Broken' Elantrian? Is it possible to get Investiture out of Nightblood? If Szeth were to stab Kaladin with Nightblood, but Kaladin inhaled Stormlight to Heal, would Nightblood consume the Stormlight, preventing the healing? If a Feruchemist were to Tap enough Attributes at once, would this make them 'invested' enough to become immune to Shardblades? If a Radiant Wielded Nightblood, could he suck up the Radiant's Spren? How did I come up with so many Questions about Nightblood so fast? 2
WeiryWriter he/him Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 Nightblood can be used as a spike, though it would be difficult: We asked if a shardblade or Nightblood could be used as a hemalurgic spike (i.e.: two different investitures of magic). Brandon said that yes, in theory you could do that, but objects have a limit to how much investiture they can hold, and that it could be argued that things like Nightblood and Shardblades are already "full."

Oudeis he/him Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 Returned are Sentient Awakened things. Nightblood is a Sentient Awakened Thing. Returned are able to gather additional Breath and use them to Awaken. If Nightblood somehow were given more Breath, could he Awaken?
Curiosity he/him Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 Did the Shattering of Adonalsium involve aluminum in any important way? 4
SmurfAquamarineBodies he/him Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 Can a Returned gain a Nehal-bond?
Oudeis he/him Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 Could a Returned's Divine Breath heal an Inquisitor back into being a normal human? 2
SmurfAquamarineBodies he/him Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 Could a Returned's Divine Breath heal an Inquisitor back into being a normal human? Would the Breath remove the Spikes?
Moogle Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 Would the Breath remove the Spikes? Feruchemical healing can push out foreign matter, so maybe it can?
Link Start he/him Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 Feruchemical healing can push out foreign matter, so maybe it can? Not always, it didn't push out the rings in Sazed vs. Marsh.
Kurkistan he/him Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 Could a Returned's Divine Breath heal an Inquisitor back into being a normal human? Ooh, good question. This is particularly interesting because Divine Breath doesn't abide by the normal rules that healing does in the Cosmere: it doesn't need a great amount of error-prone tinkering (like specialized AonDor), but at the same time doesn't rely on the Cognitive aspect of the person being healed. 1
Oudeis he/him Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 The question above was from my friend, and he is very gratified that you all seem to like it so much. The following question is my own, and contains Words of Radiance spoilers. Hypothetical scenario. Kaladin betrays his ideals again, trapping Syl as a Shardblade. Adolin takes this blade and uses a gemstone to bond to it. Then, Kaladin un-betrays his ideals again. What happens? Syl's bond to Adolin is simply broken? I find myself wondering if it's really that simple.
Jo and the Bush all/any Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Could Nightblood attract a Spren and Become a KR? Could Nightblood get a Boon and Bane from the Nightwatcher?
Moogle Posted October 31, 2014 Posted October 31, 2014 (edited) Could Nightblood attract a Spren and Become a KR? Answered: Q: Could an awakened sentient object (e.g Nightblood ) bond a spren? A: Technically but the specific circumstances you would need are so bizarre, in practice no. (source) Edited October 31, 2014 by Moogle 2
