Dean he/him Posted July 7, 2020 Posted July 7, 2020 (edited) I have no idea what I am doing here. Cause this is my first time, joining any fansite. I love Fantasy and Sci-fi... but I also love any good literature. Anyway, I encountered Sanderson's books through his BYU lectures. I watched them on youtube. Currently, I am working on my own novel. Anyway, I have read The Stormlight Archive series and also Warbreaker. I absolutely adore them. Kaladin, Syl, and Dalinar are my favorites. I have no friends who have read these books(yet)... so have none to discuss it with. Somehow I stumbled on this site and had been lurking on it for a while. And in doing so, I have read many fascinating theories that blew my mind and some great character analyzing and the understanding of the deeper concepts, people have shown... as piqued my interest, so here I am. I have no idea how to do any of this... post or poll... I'll try to learn and keep up with u guys... Journey before Destination, Radiants... Edited July 7, 2020 by Dean 2

Dean he/him Posted July 7, 2020 Author Posted July 7, 2020 Hello, Mist. I haven't read Mistborn, yet. For now, Surgebinding is my favorite. What's yours? 1

And having dealt with little depression nd loneliness myself... I can relate with him. And Dalinar is such a special one... I always liked him, nd when he gave away Oathbringer to Sadeas... I'll just say this, Sanderson blew me away with that moment. The Stormlight Archive as come to mean so much to me... I am new to the Cosmere... nd also new to FanSites(a brave new world, it seems, atleast for me, for now, hopefully)... never done this before actually... Who's your favorite character?

There are sooo many cool characters that it’s hard to choose. I might have to go with Lopen. He’s not nearly as important as many others, but I always love the comical characters; plus he’s just plain awesome. 1

The Lopen... its funny how Stormfather reacts when Lopen swears his oath... I think if anyone can stand up to The Stormfather... its Lopen. 1

I am a Lightweaver like Shallan, which I definitely feel fits me. "I will speak my truth" The 2 runners-up were Willshaper and Edgedancer. What were your next two closest orders? 1
Chaos he/him Posted July 8, 2020 Posted July 8, 2020 Hi @Dean just so you know if you hit the + button next to Quote you can quote multiple people at once. We'd prefer this over double-posting, which we discourage. No worries though, just wanted to let you know! Welcome!! 1

Working and stuff. I'm an Elsecaller like Jasnah. I totally accept the result. Jasnah is like the closest in my likeness, personality-wise and in mental thought process. So yeah. "I will reach my potential" is the motto. Also, I'm Truthwatcher second, and Skybreaker third. So you're a Windrunner! I think there're a lot of Windrunners here in the Shard. Do you agree with the result? Some of my friends are unsatisfied. I don't really know why though. Edited July 8, 2020 by Adran Oathbreaker Add'l info 2
