Assassin in Burgundy he/him Posted July 17, 2016 Posted July 17, 2016 So i was reading one of the chapters with Zahel, and when he said "He half expected a voice to talk to him, but of course there wasn't. There hadn't been one in ages," (paraphrased), I first thought that he was a Radiant, but then i thought, could he actually be Vasher, and that voice be Nightblood? I haven't finished Warbreaker, but from reading a few posts, I've gotten the idea that Vasher left the planet. So, could Zahel be the Warbreaker? Please tell me if I'm right or just being stupid. Thanks! 5
Assassin in Burgundy he/him Posted July 17, 2016 Author Posted July 17, 2016 Wait, really? I thought that was totally wrong.
cloudjumper he/him Posted July 17, 2016 Posted July 17, 2016 There's a WOB on it. Quote BLACKYETI Did he [Vasher] actually come from Nalthis and not Roshar? BRANDON SANDERSON I’m not going to actually answer that one. Well I can answer that: yes he does come from Nalthis. It’s pretty obvious that the way that the Breath’s working, the reason he moved is because it’s easier to get Stormlight than Breaths, and Stormlight can fuel being a Returned like him. And so yes, he was born on Nalthis. Becoming Returned without being born on Nalthis would be really hard.
Stormgate he/him Posted July 17, 2016 Posted July 17, 2016 Yay! You found your first non-Hoid worldhopper! This is an important milestone in the growth of a Sanderfan. Good job! 3
goody153 Posted July 17, 2016 Posted July 17, 2016 I believe there's alot more worldhopper other than Vasher in Roshar that is non-hoid. but i really wonder what made nightblood and vasher separate (WoB says it was like a "falling out" rather than somebody managed to separate them) also what happened to Vivenna i wonder if she is also in Roshar 1
Stormgate he/him Posted July 17, 2016 Posted July 17, 2016 I never claimed that Vasher is the only non-Hoid worldhopper. In fact, there are others that have made an appearance on Roshar.
KnightRadiant she/her Posted July 17, 2016 Posted July 17, 2016 You know, I didn't realize that Vasher and Zahel were one and the same until I saw stuff on his site. My first world-hopper was actually Nazh. I read MB:SH at the same time that I was reading WoR, and I had puzzled over the name from the illustration "Bridge Four Tattoos", and finally made the connection that the Cosmere existed. By the way, I'm pretty sure he's the guy that Kaladin is annoyed with in one of the chapters after that illustration, I don't remember which one exactly. Congratulations on your first world-hopper! 1
Doc12 Posted July 17, 2016 Posted July 17, 2016 Fun fact, there are 3 fairly obvious worldhoppers running around in Way of Kings (Besides Hoid), and one that is slightly more obscure. Have fun rooting them out!

Have fun rooting them out! Were those people looking for Hoid in the Purelake Worldhoppers? And if not, why were they looking for him? Oh and the guy who did the drawings and kataks at the end.

Doc12 Posted July 17, 2016 Posted July 17, 2016 Again, you are correct. Now try identifying them! They're all characters from books you've read (you've read white sand, right?) One of them can be identified by his distinctive speech patterns, and the other two with descriptions.

I have a hold on White Sand in the library, but I haven't read it yet. Wait... is Spook a Worldhopper?
Assassin in Burgundy he/him Posted July 17, 2016 Author Posted July 17, 2016 Lopen? Rock? I'm just guessing the "distinctive speech patterns" now.
Doc12 Posted July 17, 2016 Posted July 17, 2016 Sorry, no. XD. The one I'm talking about is Grump. Read his parts again, he's the easiest worldhopper to recognize
Radiant Returned he/him Posted July 17, 2016 Posted July 17, 2016 One is from Sel, one is Scadrial, and one is from Taldain. Grump is definitely the only one I can tell who it is without already knowing.
Samaldin he/him Posted July 17, 2016 Posted July 17, 2016 Corect, congratulations you´re better at this than me, when i read WoR i had found Zahel odd but didn´t manage to link him to Vasher. I have yet to identify my first Worldhopper without outside assistance (probably wasn´t the smartes idea for that to read about Worldhopping after i found out about the cosmere...)^^
DrakeMarshall he/him Posted July 17, 2016 Posted July 17, 2016 Technically the most obvious worldhopper is a certain distinctive object... That's what first tipped me off about the presence of the cosmere.
Assassin in Burgundy he/him Posted July 18, 2016 Author Posted July 18, 2016 Is Nightblood a Worldhopper? That can't be right. Btw, is the Scadrial Worldhopper from the originals or the Wax and Wayne series? Also, is Taldain from White Sand?

Assassin in Burgundy he/him Posted July 18, 2016 Author Posted July 18, 2016 Is the Scadrial Worldhopper a big character?

Chaos he/him Posted July 18, 2016 Posted July 18, 2016 I edited this topic title as it was too spoilery. Please watch out for that. 1
