Renarin Kholin he/him Posted March 22, 2020 Posted March 22, 2020 Given the current covid-19 pandemic, I would like to raise the question: how would your favorite Cosmere characters do in quarantine? I'll go first. Kaladin would hate it. We see in WoR how he reacts to being in jail. He would get depressed so quickly. Maybe less so if he is quarantined with Bridge Four, but overall I think he would do poorly in quarantine. Lightsong, on the other hand, would love it! No human contact means he wouldn't have to listen to any petitions. He could be as lazy and useless as he wanted. Of course, he would need to break quarantine to get his weekly Breath, or else he wouldn't last very long. 11
Steel Inquisitive he/him Posted March 22, 2020 Posted March 22, 2020 (I'm assuming we're ignoring healing factors) Vin would sneak out at night regardless. I just can't see her waiting around:-) Renarin would practice reading. He would probably enjoy it. 5

Popular Post Failsafe she/her Posted March 22, 2020 Popular Post Posted March 22, 2020 I think there's a whole book about what Raoden would do... 36
Karger he/him Posted March 22, 2020 Posted March 22, 2020 Lift would not keep quarantine. Elend would enjoy tracking and dealing with the disease in the most efficient way possible but at the same time be heartbroken over the suffering. Rock on the other hand would enjoy spending time cooking with his family. They would all gain at least 20 pounds as they worked on various culinary experiments. 8
Daughter of Tanavast she/her Posted March 22, 2020 Posted March 22, 2020 Adolin would enjoy the time to drink wine and look over some folios, but I think he would get restless pretty quickly. But I think he would be the voice of reason in quarantine, especially if he's there with Kaladin, Shallan, and Dalinar, all of whom would try to leave the house to 'save' people, even though there's really nothing they could do. But Kaladin might get a free pass to leave, as he could actually be useful in dealing with the sickness. 1
+ZincAboutIt she/her Posted March 22, 2020 Posted March 22, 2020 I can definitely imagine Kaladin flying around, keeping a safe distance, and persistently yelling "Go back inside!" to people sneaking out for unnecessary reasons. Must. Protect. EVERYONE. 7
Kelsier'sGodComplex she/her Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 Like Kaladin, I don't Syl would fair well.

GoWibble he/him Posted April 2, 2020 Posted April 2, 2020 Kelsier would pace constantly and would grow annoyed with everyone and tell them to just "Survive" Either that or he would take the quarantine in stride and just act like he was sitting in his house... 1
StanLemon Posted April 3, 2020 Posted April 3, 2020 Kaladin would probably hate it but he would do it without a second thought if it is explained to him that it would keep his soldiers safe 1
Ataraxian Wist she/her Posted April 3, 2020 Posted April 3, 2020 Szeth would sit at home. I mean, he doesn't really have a home, but still. Lift would try to eat as much as possible and be awesome, but would definitely use that awesomeness to escape. Or pester somebody. Nightblood would Destroy Evil. Whatever that means.

jamesbondsmith He/him Posted April 4, 2020 Posted April 4, 2020 I feel half of Dalinar's problems in WOK (specifically the ones about his visions being widely known) would have been solved by being in quarantine 1

Ripheus23 Posted April 7, 2020 Posted April 7, 2020 Everyone would try to get quarantined on Ashyn so they could get powers out of their infection, supposing they got infected. 5
QuaranTindwyl she/her Posted April 7, 2020 Posted April 7, 2020 Sazed would use it to save some health. And Sixth of the Dusk would't even notice it! Does the quarantine in Cosmere mean that the borders between the planets are closed!?! Poor Hoid! 2
I Am A Fish he/him Posted April 7, 2020 Posted April 7, 2020 Odium would use this time to bring about another desolation Honor would look at people fighting over toilet paper and be like, 3

Iarwainiel I she/her Posted May 5, 2020 Posted May 5, 2020 Wax would go out at night and help the constables to enforce a curfew, if there was one. Steris would make lists! - inventories of toilet paper, disinfectant, food. You would definitely want to be quarantined in her house - she would be prepared! Wayne wouldn't stay in. He might find a style of hat that a mask could be attached to. He would seem to be nonchalant about it, but deep down he'd want to protect others from infection. Melaan would ... just be Melaan. She might also be thinking of whose bones might soon be available, and stash some away if transforming into that person looked to have strategic value in the future. (I'm assuming that kandra would be immune to disease in general; no idea if that's correct or not.) What a fun question @Renarin Kholin !! Thanks for starting this thread! 3
Rushu42 she/her Posted May 5, 2020 Posted May 5, 2020 I fee like Sarene would be one of those people that pick up like 5 new hobbies, just because she can't deal with the boredom. 4
