mullman Posted February 1, 2018 Posted February 1, 2018 I'm not sure if I should even ask this, but can you spike a plant? I'm mainly thinking of a tree or better yet a stick but I am open to spiking a carrot.

A person with carrots for spikes. What about a spiked chasmfeind?

You mean, spiking a chasmfiend to Ruin it into another form - like stapling four of them together to make a kolossfiend?! - or to give it magical powers? As footnoted in the Coppermind, we have a WOB that hemalurgy "would work on animals", after all... Teaching it to use Allomancy would probably be impossible (especially since it'd involve teaching it to identify and ingest the appropriate metals to burn), but assuming Feruchemy could be instinctual, you could spike a chasmfiend with F-steel or F-pewter (and put a suitably large metalmind collar onto it) to make something pretty terrifying. Heck, spike a chasmfiend with three Feruchemical spikes - F-steel, F-pewter, and F-gold - and then it might be pierced enough for a nicroboosted Soother or Rioter (or Mistborn) to seize control of. 2

And the endowment of intelligence is a common result of tinkering with Shard-based magic. Although.. we shouldn't be venturing down the path of giving intelligence to Chasmfiends. I'm imagining something functionally equivalent to the T-Rex in Jurassic Park, but with brainpower like the raptors in those movies. 1

Sparkrunner he/him Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 @robardin has a good point. Why waste time trying to bestow intelligence or teach something how to use it's powers? Just use emotional allomancy! Spy birds! Sabotage rodents! Elephant cavalry! Chasmfiend cavalry! Innumerous uses!

A person with carrots for spikes. What about a spiked chasmfeind? Yesterday a (slightly less competent) friend of mine mentioned something about carrots being good for your eyesight. I proceeded to tell him that yes, carrots are good for your eyesight. Assuming the carrot was made of tin, and actually wasn't a carrot at all and instead a hemalurgic spike that was recently stabbed through another persons heart. I then proceeded to explain the intricacies of Hemalurgy without offering any context. His only response was: "This isn't real, is it?" 10

Toaster Retribution he/him Posted February 4, 2018 Author Posted February 4, 2018 (edited) @Nathrangking Storms, you aren't supposed to tell everyone that I'm a top secret hemalurgic awakened cylon spy.
