Tariniel Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 (edited) So... I'm probably the last Sanderfan to realize this, but as I was rereading Warbreaker this morning I noticed that Austre is a play on the word austere, a hint towards the Idrian way of life. This got me interested in these little word twists, and I was wondering if you guys can throw in some other ones you have seen around the Comere Curious to see what else I may have missed...

Red Ferring Posted December 11, 2016 Report Share Posted December 11, 2016 -Clod the Lifeless. Like a dirt clod. Plain. Dull -Breeze. Figurative for his smooth talking. -Hammond/Ham. Because he's a muscle man. Ham is just a big chunk of muscle. -Dox. He's a peace maker and responsible fellow of the group. A healer of sorts. Dox. Doc. I know I'm reaching on that one. Those are all I can think of right now. Not exactly what you're talking about but it's what came to mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quiver Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 I don't know if it was intentional,but I cannot look at Kaladin and not make the connection to Paladin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

INTERVIEW: Jan 24th, 2015 Barnes & Noble (Newnan) QUESTION Do you consider Kaladin a paladin? BRANDON SANDERSON You know, that is partially why I came up with the name. He was named something else in the original draft and it just didn’t work. So I’m like “I need a new...” Yeah. TAGS Brandon on naming, You're not the only one!

Elenion Posted December 19, 2016 Report Share Posted December 19, 2016 Denth sounds like 'Dense' said with a lisp, and that's your first impression of him. Also, anyone else notice that if you turn 'Kalad' backwards and change one letter, you get 'Dalek'? Illuminati Exterminati confirmed! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kynedath Posted December 20, 2016 Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 I always thought that Dox was a play on Documents because he was like the administrator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
