chikinllama Posted January 21, 2014 Posted January 21, 2014 (edited) Another wild speculation post here, not sure if it's been covered before, but I thought I'd take a stab at how I visualize the windrunners in Dalinar's flashbacks using shardplate, even though Szeth seems to think that it isn't compatible (no factual basis behind this, just musings): Since shardplate needs stormlight to be powered, I always imagined the Radiants feeding the plate stormlight that they have in their bodies, and when non Radiants picked up the plate, the needed another source of stormlight so they started using gems. This allowed Radiants to surgebind through plate but nobody else. Thoughts? Sorry for the bad spelling, I'm typing in my phone. Edited January 21, 2014 by chikinllama
chikinllama Posted January 21, 2014 Author Posted January 21, 2014 (edited) Mine was more of a gut feeling. I like yours better because it's fleshed out and draws implications like using the plate as a battery! Will +1 when I get on a computer Edited January 21, 2014 by chikinllama
