nbozb Posted April 17, 2020 Posted April 17, 2020 I guess I'm here now! I'm currently making my way through Stormlight (I'm on Oathbringer). Hi! 2
Failsafe she/her Posted April 17, 2020 Posted April 17, 2020 Welcome to the Shard! Who's your favorite character?
Experience he/him Posted April 18, 2020 Posted April 18, 2020 Welcome! Have you read any other of his books?
Honorless he/him Posted April 18, 2020 Posted April 18, 2020 Welcome to the Shard, careful so you don't get spoiled (don't go to The Stormlight Archive forums till you're done)
GoWibble he/him Posted April 21, 2020 Posted April 21, 2020 Welcome to the Shard! Who is your favorite character and magic system and why?

I just finished Warbreaker and I love Lightsong, but my favorite storyline was Vivenna's. I'd say that my all time favorite characters in the Cosmere are Kaladin and Vin. What about you?

Thanks for the warning, I'll avoid that section. What's your favorite character arc in the Cosmere?

The first question is a very hard pick. I'd have to go with Kaladin and Vin though. My favorite magic system is Allomancy (though Hemalurgy is very, uh, interesting). Which of Sanderson's magic systems do you want to use the most?

I really like stormlight cause you know... it's stormlight. I guess way of kings?

Those are all great, but I think Renarin is my all time favorite. I also have a soft spot for Raoden and Steris.

I love Raoden! I think he's absolutely awesome. I haven't met Steris or Renerin that much yet, but when I reach those books, I'm sure I'll love them. They seem awesome. What about them makes them your favorite characters?

It was such a big book that I was terrified to get into it, but at the same time, I really wanted to. After I checked it out, it sat on my bookshelf for the longest time, until I made myself pick it up. I was hooked from the first chapter. Did you have a Way of Kings story?

Are you talking about the other copy of the introduction post I made? Sorry about that, lol. I couldn't figure out how anything worked on here. I'll definitely avoid in the future! Thanks!

I don't really remember when I first read Way of Kings Umm... I don't think I did, but yes I think it's very good from the very start.

I think I just have a thing for wholesome nerdy characters in general. Renarin doesn't get a ton of screentime, so pay attention to him, because I think he'll end up being the coolest character in the series.

Either Scadrial's, Roshar's, or Taldain's. and for non cosmere, either The Reckoners or the Rithmatist
