Toaster Retribution he/him Posted February 2, 2020 Posted February 2, 2020 Sooo, I have wondered for a while which character is the Cosmere Chuck Norris. And I have reached the conclusion that it can only be Taln. After all, he is... well, Taln. But we obviously need to write down all his incredible facts: I’ll start: *The Oathpact was really between Honor and Taln. The other Heralds were only there because Taln didnt want more than one Honorblade. *Nohadon is Talns pen name. *Taln once tried tossing a chasmfiend to see how far it would go. Its impact on a nearby planet caused the Cataclysm of Ashyn. *Honor was Talns hype-man. *Taln knows everything about Vax. *Taln doesnt like rain, and decided to spend five minutes to build a small shed to stay in while the Highstorms passed. Humans found it and named it Urithiru. *Taln once got hit by lightning in a storm. He hit the lightning in return, and the storm got so traumatized that it needed two weeks vacation every year. This how the Weeping was created. Anyone else who has Taln facts? 16
king of nowhere Posted February 2, 2020 Posted February 2, 2020 taln does not die. at most, he takes a trip to another planet. taln had stopped the whole voidbringer invasion for four millennia without doing anything 11
Karger he/him Posted February 2, 2020 Posted February 2, 2020 (edited) Taln once through a bolder at an army. It killed 80 people. Then it hit. Taln was annoyed with Aimia a few hundred years ago. It was only mild annoyance. That is why the island was not destroyed completely. Some people on roshar build out of highstorm crem. They were inspired by Taln building out of highstorm rain. Cremlings were created by chasmfiends that shrank rather then fight him. Edited February 2, 2020 by Karger 4
Nathrangking he/him Posted February 2, 2020 Posted February 2, 2020 (edited) Taln once consumed an ocean in a single sitting and thus created the shattered plains. Taln takes Odium's passion. Once Taln got mad and that's how the passions came to be. Edited February 2, 2020 by Nathrangking
dashardie Posted February 2, 2020 Posted February 2, 2020 Taln once got bitten by a Whitespine. It died a few hours later. Taln's Scar: what happened when he got mad at the Cosmere 1
GoWibble he/him Posted February 2, 2020 Posted February 2, 2020 Adonsalium knew about Taln. He Shattered himself just to let Taln become who he is. When you see Shards whimper inn front of Ruin or Odium, Taln arrives making Odium (and Ruin in the Beyond) full-out cry. Taln took inspiration from the Julia set and made Roshar. He did this a few times before he told himself that the current permutation was enough. 1
king of nowhere Posted February 2, 2020 Posted February 2, 2020 (edited) taln counted up to infinity. twice. while under torture. once semirhage captured taln and made him one of her "patients". she only commented on the experience with the word "frustrating" Edited February 2, 2020 by king of nowhere 2
Nathrangking he/him Posted February 2, 2020 Posted February 2, 2020 When Taln said jump skyeels were born. Taln makes whitespines run from him. Whenever Taln sneezes there is a highstorm. 1
Toaster Retribution he/him Posted February 2, 2020 Author Posted February 2, 2020 @Nathrangking dunno where the other one went. I think a mod killed it unfortunately. Anyway: *Hoid has never insulted Taln. He can’t find anything to insult. *Taln once invested aluminum. *Taln doesnt need a Honorblade. The Honorblade needs Taln. *The Regals are the Voidbringers who Taln has bothered to kill personally. *Braize is where Taln goes for relaxing vacations. 1
Nathrangking he/him Posted February 2, 2020 Posted February 2, 2020 In Talnian Roshar Taln Drives the thrill! The Ashyn exodus began when Taln wanted a change of scenery. Ashtermarn cannot get enough of Taln. 1
Weltall Posted February 2, 2020 Posted February 2, 2020 Hoid once ended up worshiping Taln by accident. Taln once went to Patji for a tropical getaway but he came back finding the island too quiet and boring for his taste. The God Beyond was originally what Honor called Taln. Taln is the secret seventeenth Shard of Adonalsium And one last fact for the Wheel of Time fans: Spoiler Taln knows what's up with Nakomi and the pipe. 3
NameIess Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 Nightblood was created because Taln needed a razor. Taln let the desolation start because he was bored of chasing ghosts. Taln made the thrill a pacifist. Taln once fought Kaladin to a standstill in a grumpiness contest. Adonalsium is Taln's cognitive aspect. It shattered when people realized it was too weak. (Minor Alcatraz spoilers) Spoiler Taln broke Alcatraz. 7
Nathrangking he/him Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 Taln uses shardblades as toothpicks. Shards shatter if they look at Taln the wrong way When Lift saw him she knew him to be awesomeness incarnate. He puts life back into the lifeless. The lord ruler curses by his name. Denth is a snail next to him. 2
Naurock Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 Ah, man! My responses to the other Taln Facts thread got lost.
Eluvianii he/him Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 The reason plants on Roshar hide all the time is because they're afraid whoever is coming is Taln. Dalinar would give his pain to Taln. Taln gives blessings and curses to the Nightwatcher. Taln didn't like the tenth pancake, so he willed it out of existence. 3
Thanatos Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 @Eluvianii The Nightwatcher gives Taln blessings.... nobody curses Taln!!!

Quantus he/him Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 (edited) OP, Im sorry to say that the Role of Cosmere Chuck Norris is already taken by the almighty Stick. But Stick is Stick, and does not mind or care if others approach his divine status. Sooo: When the 16 tried to Shatter Adonalsium, they first had to get Taln's permission; Nothing breaks without his say so Taln breathes Breaths Taln is Adonalsium's predecessor (Retired) Edited February 3, 2020 by Quantus

Nobody's getting transformed into anything, because any proper Chuck Norris equivalent would laugh at such feeble attempts. Which is Stick's Shtick) Stick's Shtick...try saying that 5 times fast... 1
Nathrangking he/him Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 Taln carved The Rift one day when he was gardening. Taln keeps thunderclasts as pets. The Nightwatcher begs Taln for boons.
Honorless he/him Posted February 6, 2020 Posted February 6, 2020 Taln discovered fire by telling Stick to turn into fire. 4
