0 Calderis Posted August 26, 2018 Report Share Posted August 26, 2018 Theoretically, sure... Quote The_Vikachu Another hemalurgy question: Is it possible to steal more than just spiritual DNA with hemalurgy? If you, say, infused someone with a hundred hemalurgic spikes charged from people who liked chicken, would the spike person enjoy chicken as well? Brandon Sanderson You can steal quite a lot with Hemalurgy. Anything encoded on a person's soul, really. Not sure if chicken liking counts, though... source Practically... Not sure how many Larkin you'd need to kill to figure out the right bindpoint/metal necessary, let alone where to place that in a person to grant the ability...

I mean, its Heart should be more or less universal with a big enough spike isn't it? so you could probably do it with just one, if it is doable.

Probably taking it via the heart is enough, but shoving that spike into the heart of a victim might not grant the desired result. Or any result. Depends on how the larkin's sDNA interacts and how they feast, be it a physical trait or other form of trait. I personally do not know what the larkins do with the investiture beyond consuming it (though it seems Chiri-Chiri uses it somewhat for growth) so that would probably have an effect.

0 atiummisting17 Posted August 27, 2018 Report Share Posted August 27, 2018 Probably, but whoever got the spike afterwards would likely be deformed by the corrupting nature of Hemalurgy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
