Which Character From Mistborn Era One Do You Want To See Most In Bands of Mourning?

[Patar he/him]

Potential Spoilers for Mistborn Era One and SoS. In Alloy of Law and Shadows of Self, we have had a few appearances from characters from the original trilogy. Out of those characters who survived Mistborn Era One, who do you want to see most in Bands of Mourning?

Demoux

When is Demoux in era 2? I must have missed this.

 

Or is it just that he is a known Worldhopper, and so could potentially appear?

He hasn't appeared in era 2, but we know that he is alive at the time it is going on. I don't see him appearing, but I kind of want it to happen. Perhaps he could detail what he is up to on Roshar, and drop hints on why he is looking for Hoid.

[DreamEternal]

Nah, just a worldhopper who was know to be alive shortly before Era 2.

[Stormgate he/him]

I like TenSoon, and want to see some of the limits-or lack of- in kandra shapeshifting abilities, beyond those we already know.

[King's Twit he/him]

Ah, that makes sense.

 

I would love for Demoux to get an opportunity to talk to his "god" the Survivor. Assuming Kelsier is still around and still Kelsier.

 

Demoux being more Cosmere-aware now, he probably realizes that Kelsier isn't God, but I think he still would put a lot of stock in what Kelsier has to say.

I don't see why Saze is in here. I think it's a given that wax is gonna have a deep "why you do this" with him sometime.

As of this post, nobody has voted for Sazed. I find it slightly humorous that since it's virtually a given he is going to be in BoM, and we're all a bit ticked with him for what he did to Wax, nobody votes for him.

Actually, I do want to see him in the book, but feel that it's such a given that he will be that I'm putting my vote in on someone who's not a shoo-in.  Because apparently my brain thinks that this vote actually makes a difference there.  Yeah.  Tonight's logic brought to you by Wayne's Pickles.

I didn't vote for him because he is going to be there anyway. Him doing what he did makes him more interesting to read about in my opinion.

Oddly, I loved the Character of MeLaan the most.
I am pretty sure that WoB says that she isn't just a Kandra, but is TenSoon's adopted daughter? That relationship of fascinating. I was rooting for her way way back in Era 1 when she offered to gather the Younger generations to try and help him. There was so much in that one interaction that spoke volumes of their relationship, and I wanted to see it explored again.

 

She's awesome. I hope she is the "Kandra Researcher" in question. 

[Noblehunter]

Strictly speaking, Sazed isn't around anymore. I'd like to see him again but we're stuck with Harmony.

 

Marsh seems likely to be a good source for infodumps and he suffers from fewer restrictions than Harmony.

[DSC01 he/him]

Marsh is my top pick, even though a part of me wants to say Demoux. I got my TenSoon and MeLaan fix in SoS. As for Kelsier, well, I just don't think that he's coming back. He was a really cool character for The Final Empire, but I don't know what he'd bring to the story if he was resurrected or showed up as a Splinterholder or something.

[Stormgate he/him]

He's still around as a Cognitive Shadow, it's not all that far fetched that he be in the books.

Most kandra beyond the First Generation are likely born from mistwraith parents and not originally Terris, so even after gaining sentience they would probably be the equivalent of babies. They probably use older generation kandra to train and educate them on shapeshifting and the Contract, and with MeLaan it was apparently TenSoon.

So it's some bizarre mix of affection towards a parent and mentor-student idolization. And maybe a bit of a senpai-kouhai thing, and yes I don't know how to phrase that without resorting to Japanese
