Full Metal Rithmatist Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 Imagine if through some convoluted process of investiture hacking a Kandra became a knight radiant. They said the vows and their spren gains the ability to become a Shardblade. The kandra has the spren transform into a shardskeleton to use as their body. Hell yeah thatd be cool. If you thought this thread was building to some kind of point. You were wrong. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkJester Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 O.o oh my... LOL. I guess they would have unbreakable bones... That and when in the home land, they would have the most beautiful skeleton... I guess it would really be the only skeleton they would need. They could adjust the skeleton on a whim and change their appearance without changing the skeleton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Landis963 Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 Assuming of course that the spikes don't scare the spren off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yata Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 Yes as Landis said, the Spikes will probably scary the Spren and avoid the Bonding...anyway also if a BraveSpren bond with him, I don't think a Spren may become a ShardSkeleton (multiple and mobile parts), but nice concept 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might take issue with being stuck inside their 'Binder's body all the time, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to be that they need to dematerialize every time in order to change the shape, as that is what Syl was doing. Therefore, the constantly changing skeleton idea wouldn't work because there would be a period where there would be no bones, in which case the kandra would start to collapse, then there might not be room for the spren to materialize inside the kandra, and nothing would work.

nervousnerd Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 (edited) Even if spikes were not a problem, I think plate would be more likely to be useful as a skeleton depending on how malleable its forms are. The thing is: why would you use a shard skeleton when you could just use it as armor and protect yourself better? I suppose in that sense you would use it as some sort of exoskeleton, Edited January 19, 2017 by nervousnerd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
