Hoid's Identity

[Yipyip]

Hey Everyone,

 

I'm new to the forum and I was looking for a topic on Hoid's identity. Specifically, him being a shard. If anyone could direct me towards that topic that would be awesome. If there isn't one I'll start one myself. Really excited to be on the forum though!

Welcome to the forums! I can point you towards the Theoryland collection of Brandon quotes, where we have one that says Hoid is not a Shard, to answer your specific question. I'd encourage you to take a nice, long look through the interview database; there is a lot of information that was never released in the books, only in interviews, that is really eye-opening.

Also if you read Secret History, even without Sanderson in an interview, well without getting a "spoiler" I believe it possibly answers your question?

Hoid is not a shard but he did know the shards before there asention.
