Karger he/him Posted August 28, 2019 Posted August 28, 2019 (edited) 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)! Edited August 28, 2019 by Karger
+Invocation Posted August 28, 2019 Posted August 28, 2019 The Radiant School. That's just the name. The motto? We're really bad at naming things. 1

Sylphrenna Posted August 28, 2019 Posted August 28, 2019 I think that the only moto that match everyone is "life before death, strength before weakness, journey before destination" 5
rjl Posted August 28, 2019 Posted August 28, 2019 School of Radiance. Life before death. Strength before Weakness. Journey before pancakes. 1
Weltall Posted August 28, 2019 Posted August 28, 2019 International House of Radiance. Motto: Breakfast before Lunch, Syrup before Butter, Waffles before Pancakes ...in retrospect, letting Lift name the school was probably a mistake. 9
Nathrangking he/him Posted August 28, 2019 Posted August 28, 2019 Rosharan Radiant Academy RRA for short. Motto: We'll take just about anyone!
Lunamor she/her Posted August 29, 2019 Posted August 29, 2019 ‘Lil Radiants Stormlight Academy. Motto: We’ve got issues! 3
Use the Falchion Posted August 29, 2019 Posted August 29, 2019 Stormlight School for Radiants and Voidbringers (or Stormligh School for Oaths and Surgebinding) Motto: The path to becoming better starts with your next step.
Eluvianii he/him Posted August 29, 2019 Posted August 29, 2019 Radiant Academy for the Fall of Odium (RAFO) Wanna know our motto? Register and find out. 10

+Hoiditthroughthegrapevine he/him Posted August 29, 2019 Posted August 29, 2019 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. 6
Wander89 he/him Posted August 29, 2019 Posted August 29, 2019 Kholin School for Gifted Radiants Rosharian Institute for the Radiantly Insane (Yes, I'm on a Marvel kick recently) 1
OldFilthyCasual Posted August 30, 2019 Posted August 30, 2019 The Kaladin Stormblessed Center for Kids Who Can't Fly Good And Who Wanna Learn to Lash Other Stuff Good Too. 8
Dancer Posted August 30, 2019 Posted August 30, 2019 "Air sick lowlanders" No Cremling shells allowed 2
Nathrangking he/him Posted August 30, 2019 Posted August 30, 2019 Radiants of Roshar Academy RRA for short. Motto- Your glowing is our top concern. 3

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.

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! Edited August 30, 2019 by Karger

Also the point of this name is to imprint the idea of service to others(that is why I came up with it). True, though it's still pretty much 99% Windrunners plus Renarin. But fair point on the ideal of service. Quote Also I now need my Dalinar as Dumbledore Hogwarts fanfic! 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 https://www.17thshard.com/forum/forum/13-sanderson-fan-works/

Though imagining Dalinar as the school's headmaster is a pretty storming awesome thought. 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.
+robardin he/him Posted August 30, 2019 Posted August 30, 2019 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. 2
