The Awakened Salad they/them Posted February 5, 2020 Posted February 5, 2020 21 hours ago, Use the Falchion said: Lightweaving Hoid. Why do I get the feeling that Hoid would find this hilarious. He’d either be competing disguised as someone else or hiding in the background having the best time of his life. 4
Draginon he/him Posted February 8, 2020 Posted February 8, 2020 No one’s going to mention Khriss for both beauty and brains? I imagine to keep the beauty side under control the contestants can’t use their local magics to change their appearance and Kandra have to stay in one form without changing anything about their appearance.

Nah. much more fun the other way
+ILuvHats he/him Posted February 15, 2020 Posted February 15, 2020 Does this beauty pageant now officially include both genders? If so, @Allendrius, can you update the OP to include male recommendations mentioned in the thread? It might help people like RShara feel more comfortable.
Retrac he/him Posted February 15, 2020 Posted February 15, 2020 I vote for the old fat men. Who ever they may be 2
SwordNimiForPresident the sword/that sword Posted February 15, 2020 Posted February 15, 2020 Any Elantrian. Man or woman, doesn't matter.
Minintrovert Posted February 18, 2020 Posted February 18, 2020 (edited) Can shards participate? Imagine trying to vote against Harmony. Also if it's a beauty pageant we have to mention the returned. Blushweaver is gorgeous, has perfect pitch, and convinced her fellows to put her in charge of a huge military force. Beauty skill and charisma right there. Edit: I've been thinking about it and in addition to a beauty pageant who would win in like Olympic events? Pewterarms? Surgebinders? Idk just a thought. Edited February 18, 2020 by Minintrovert 1
+robardin he/him Posted February 20, 2020 Posted February 20, 2020 Oh, no mention of Venli, is it? Even in mateform? Humans only, eh? RACISTS!! And what about Arclo the Dysian Aimian. If you think the Marshquisitor will win votes through intimidation, what about the judges feeling, just as they are about to vote, like a few teeny tiny creepy-crawlies are going up their legs. *shudder* 1

Surely there are more!

Surely there are more! Having trouble with his name, I think Telrii? The noble in Elantris that sold everyone out to one up the other noble. He was corpulent if I recall correctly. The ardent in oathbringer that introduced the rebel ardent to the queen's retinue. Ummmm, oh! the ardent researching food with the female ardent researching spren. Jasnah's versitilian "sister" who is actually a male baker. I will add more as I think of them.

You're thinking of Ahan; the Ardent's name was Lhan (who originally played a bigger role in a version where Taln had a lot more PoVs); Geranid's companion's name was Ashir; the Veristitalian was called Jochi Edited February 20, 2020 by Honorless were>where 1

RACISTS!! well, as a human straight male, i am only qualified to comment on the attractiveness of human females. but this raises a good point: what if the jury is made of listeners or aimians or other kind of aliens?

Well a human straight male can still objectively comment that another human straight male is handsome. But in regards to your point, then potentially Kandra would be the most suited to judge as they could physically look like any race or sex involved, and have possibly experienced living as any race or sex involved, so could most objectively comment. (also they would not only look, but have have fully functional parts of those individuals, so if anyone could truly understand where someone is coming from, it would theoretically be a kandra) Edited February 20, 2020 by Pathfinder 1

The only thing they couldn't judge is Dysian Aimian unless I'm missing out on another weird sentient species. Although might they be biased towards other Kandra?

Hmmm, although a kandra could theoretically (depending on size) take the body of a cremling bred by a Dysian Aimian, it is true they could not truly experience life as one as they would only be able to maintain a part, rather than the whole (the hive that is an Dysian Aimian). As to biased towards other Kandra, technicaly a kandra cannot know another kandra is another kandra unless shown/told (hence the problem in Shadows of Self). So if the judge didn't know which one was actually a kandra, there couldn't be any preferential treatment.
