Radiant School Name


Karger

Recommended Posts

When our Radiants go to school at Urithiru that school will need a name(and a motto).  Please post your suggestions so that we can decide on a good one(and so I can stop referring to it as Radiant School that is just boring)!

Envisager University, Urithiru branch.

Motto: At Envisager U we'll give you the push you need to figure out if you can be Radiant*.

 

*The school assumes no liability for underperforming students who fail to stop themselves from plummeting to their deaths when pushed from the top of the tower.

What about Bridge School?

All the non-Windrunners might find that name... Orderist? Ordercentric? Presumably the school's going to be training everyone except maybe Bondsmiths; kinda hard to teach them when you can only have three at a time. Though imagining Dalinar as the school's headmaster is a pretty storming awesome thought.

Bridge four did not just include Windrunners.  Also the point of this name is to imprint the idea of service to others(that is why I came up with it).  Also I now need my Dalinar as Dumbledore Hogwarts fanfic!

True, though it's still pretty much 99% Windrunners plus Renarin. But fair point on the ideal of service.

Well, I suppose you could write up a summary for what you'd like to see, post it and see if anyone's interested in writing it... My Harry Potter knowledge is pretty minimal and I've got non-Cosmere crackfic I'm working on right now, or I'd give it a go. xD

He doesn't need to teach in order to be headmaster. Also he can teach the stonewards and windrunners; there might be some differences in the specific usage of the surges, but they definitely overlap.

Since each Surge would need its own syllabus, if you will, to teach its use, it really should be Urithuru University with ten "colleges" or departments within it. Ten Surgemasters, one of who is named the Head or Chancellor; or perhaps, an independent head in charge over ten Surgemasters, a Head Surgemaster (not "Surge Headmaster" - that sounds like the name for a heavy metal band).

An independent Head Surgemaster wouldn't (necessarily) be a Dalinar-like Bondsmith who was the overall leader of the Knights Radiant, either. We are talking about a training school, so it should be someone more gifted in, and oriented towards, administration and pedagogy, which Dalinar is not. Maybe a rotating term of office among the ten Surgemasters, as I could easily see that serving as the Chair would be something a lot of active KRs would try to avoid instead of seek after.

I think being called something like the Surgemaster of Gravitation sounds awful, though. It'd be better to correlate each of the ten Surges with one of the ten numbers/Essences (they basically line up that way already), and call the Surgemaster of Gravitation "Jesmaster", of Regrowth "Vevmaster", and so on.
