Not necesarily viable ones on Roshar, but intriguing none the less. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightsworn Panda Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Hmm... I spent some time googling about this, and apparently, you can change your eye color with honey, certain (rare) eye drops, naturally (through genetics), exposure to light and even through hypnosis. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baine Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 The Mythbuster tested that. It didn't work. As a side note, what if the Mythbusters were on Scadrial? In the modern time, of course. Should I start a new thread for that? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrono Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Knowing them, they'd try to replicate Kaladin's Highstorm survival stunt and have to reengineer a new Buster. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kobold King Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 Knowing them, they'd try to replicate Kaladin's Highstorm survival stunt and have to reengineer a new Buster. If the Cosmere's Mythbusters are morally bankrupt noblemen, they could use a kandra instead of a dummy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swimmingly Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 Or, you know, an extemely well paid gold compounder/Thug-Bloodmaker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kobold King Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 Or, you know, an extemely well paid gold compounder/Thug-Bloodmaker If I were a gold Compounder, I'd take that job. Miles didn't feel pain, after all. (Granted, that was because he'd gotten used to the pain, but I can still see myself taking the job. I'd put the $ in $cadrial.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all the gold you'd be buying all the time, you'd be in considerable debt instead of rich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awesomeness Summoned Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 (edited) The Mythbuster tested that. It didn't work.While the mythbusters are entertaining, they don't exactly follow proper scientific methods most of the time so not sure I'd take them as the last word on if something is possible.Edit: Not that I believe hypnosis could really change someone's eye color of course Edited May 8, 2014 by Awesomeness Summoned 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swimmingly Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 A thug-bloodmaker is basically a poor man's gold compounder, then. You just go about normal life burning pewter and using it to keep you on your feet while you store health like crazy. I bet you could get some bursts of Miles-style healing if you timed them right doing that. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delightful Posted May 10, 2014 Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 Well that got derailed quickly Thinking of changing eye colour temporarily, there are also coloureds contacts you can buy for a costume. But I somehow think they wouldn't have those on Roshar. Although the do have glasses, so you never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kasimir Posted May 10, 2014 Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 There are permanent ways too (traumatic injury--stuff like blunt force etc) which would do it by damage to the iris or cornea. But I suspect that would be from light to dark, rather than vice versa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
