WiseCandle he/him Posted January 25, 2019 Posted January 25, 2019 Audiobook listener so sorry for spelling. Mistborn era 1: a begger shows up in the Well of Accession to assist Kell before he meets Lord Lanrian. That begger calls himself Hoid though it never really fit to his usual way of creating a witty and/or memorable manor. That being said when Vin goes to the Ball her informer fares too close to not be him. That overly exacerbated drama to explain his stories yet so eager to help her get out of the ball, create a distraction for her two tails, and for such a low price. He never demonstrated any real power in these instances but his real character that I've seen. Mistborn era 2: Again a begger shows up to give Wax a very strange coin. Yet at the same time he is mistaken for drinking "cologne" and seemed sickly. Yet I am guessing that our mystery Hoid had been running for the last 329 years running from Trell, Marsh," the sovereign" who ever he is, Preservation (before he died), the unmade, remaining of the 16 and some of the Hunters, and priests. Maybe the Southerners as well if he was involved in those rare few tri-powered cubes.
Scion of the Mists Posted January 25, 2019 Posted January 25, 2019 Yes, both of those are Hoid appearances. There's a full list of them at his Coppermind page (although major spoilers for Mistborn: Secret History). He also was the Terris refuge leader in Well of Ascension. In Era 2, he was present at the wedding in Alloy of Law and as a carriage driver in Shadows of Self. 1
WiseCandle he/him Posted January 25, 2019 Author Posted January 25, 2019 (edited) My jaw dropped reading all that. But it still leads me to a question I couldn't find in the threads, probably die to my own error. If Harmony wrote in the books of Founding that Kel ascended, and in the link he was in the cognitive realm with Hoid, how did he have a body to return to in order for this to all fit together? His body was ingested and his bones in use after he died by the Lord Ruler. Spikes can only do so much, as well. Edited January 25, 2019 by WiseCandle

Some combination of Hemalurgy and shenanigans that we don't know full details for as of yet, until The Lost Metal comes out in 2020/2021 1
WiseCandle he/him Posted January 25, 2019 Author Posted January 25, 2019 Patience... Not my strongest attribute.. but one rabbit hole at a tme I suppose.

Now that you mention it, it does seem as if the plot of MBE4 will revolve around Hoid being chased by representatives of every major group in the Cosmere.

There are too many loose threads being dangled above us to not suggest at least 2 major clashes and possibly a third; at least. Maybe I just have to much time to theorize at the moment but the Spearhead was a screw in, Soverign has 1 eye spike (not like an obligators), and the belt had some sort of bodily function for the Soverign otherwise there is no use to waste the metal. Saz has put a "bubble" around the world. iorn eyes is still hidding somewhere and something important, beyond the last of era 1 atium. Ruin is able to spread across planets in search of the shards. Admitting he was not formed fully enough in Oathbringer, so, God's reclaiming part if himself seems down right perfect to lead to all out disharmony and tieing things closer to clear...... Maybe.... Kinda ish but better and cleaner than this. Still researching as I go.
