Velvet Thunder he/him Posted July 4, 2017 Report Share Posted July 4, 2017 Hi all, These are my first physical steps into the realm of the 17th Shard! (I've been watching you all, delving through your topics and discussions from the..cognitive realm(?)... creepy, I know.) Glad to meet the community! I'm a huge fantasy fanboy, and stumbled across Brandon about 6 years ago. Since I picked up that first series (Mistborn) I have read all his works, bar Alcatraz (which I'm sure I will someday), and have fallen in love with the Cosmere. If I had to pick a favourite, it would undoubtedly be The Stormlight Archive. You could almost say it has a, *ahem*, perfect pitch? Or hue? OK, fine.. I'll stop. It just resonates well with me and ticks all the right boxes (and then some). SO, I guess it goes without saying that we all love Brandon's books, so I guess I should say a little more about me? Radiant Order - An odd split (perhaps?) between Windrunner and Dustbringer. Metallic Art - Allomancy: Mistborn. Heightening - As long as both Brandon and I are of the fifth, so he can keep writing and I can keep reading forever, I'm fairly open minded.. Favourite Character - Wit/Hoid/Topaz/Drifter... etc. He is brilliant and there is going to be SO much more to learn. (I love secrets, hidden power/knowledge/mysteries etc). I'm sure you've heard it all before anyway. Just happy to be here! You'll most likely see me lurking around the Stormlight area, getting involved in theories, discussing things in FAR too much depth and trying to figure out how to transfer myself into the cosmere. Want to know more? Well, I'm sure I'll be posting some more, so in the very wise words of a man I respect enormously - RAFO. (I joke, ask me anything and I will tell you the answer. Maybe. Probably.) See you around! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeleWorms Posted July 4, 2017 Report Share Posted July 4, 2017 Hey, welcome to the Shard! You've answered most of the usual introductory questions on your own, so good job there. I've gotta ask though: In what book have you liked Hoid's appearance the most? (Hopefully you don't RAFO me here.) Anyway, here's some advice I give to all newcomers: Do not, under any circumstances, eat the cookies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still remember the first time I read it (I'm on my 6th time through, I think) I actually burst out laughing after his tirade of abuse he so magnificently hurled at Sadeas! We also get a glimpse, just in our peripheral vision, of his motives. And anything I can learn about him, his past and his motives I will devour. Unlike the cookies, under sound advice. Does anyone hear those voices? Something about killing.... ah forget it, it's probably just my imagination. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
