Eternal Khol he/him Posted July 19, 2020 Posted July 19, 2020 (edited) After seeing @Elegy inspiring post on the statistical analysis of White Sand Prose, I decided i would do the same thing for AoN. Ive modeled the charts after the ones Elegy provided. and will be putting the chapter by chapter in a spoiler tag because of its length i wanted to also do one for Mistborn Prime, but its told entirely in the PoV of its main character, so there’s no point i didnt count the introduction by brandon at the beginning, chapter headings, etc... so its a few thousand words shorter than the full document Enioy! p.s. i refer to chapter 29 as “chapter 28” because there is no chapter 28 Unique POV Breakdown: Character (8) # of POVs (102) % of Total POVs Word Count (152,380) % of Word Count Raeth 54 52.94% 107,626 70.63% D’Naa 34 33.33% 34,697 22.77% Laene 5 4.90% 3,529 2.32% Darro 4 3.92% 3,990 2.62% Shaad 2 1.96% 1,077 0.71% Ala’d 1 0.98% 323 0.21% Agaris 1 0.98% 739 0.48% The Former 1 0.98% 399 0.26% Spoiler Chapter by Chapter Breakdown Chapter Character Word Count Prologue Agaris 739 Chapter 1 Raeth 3,267 D’naa 1,591 Raeth 2,463 Chapter 2 D’naa 1,114 Raeth 3,796 D’naa 499 Raeth 620 Chapter 3 Raeth 1,267 D’naa 766 Raeth 3,649 Chapter 4 D’naa 1,501 Raeth 1,035 D’naa 645 Raeth 1,514 D’naa 1,736 Raeth 946 D’naa 600 Raeth 580 Chapter 5 Raeth 2,177 D’naa 1,624 Raeth 2,620 Chapter 6 D’naa 736 Raeth 1,265 Laene 1,509 Raeth 2,513 D’naa 267 Chapter 7 D’naa 1417 Raeth 916 D’naa 641 Raeth 449 Chapter 8 Raeth 3,914 D’naa 984 Raeth 825 Chapter 9 Raeth 2,543 D’naa 676 Raeth 1681 Chapter 10 D’naa 247 Raeth 416 D’naa 637 Raeth 2403 Shaad 413 Chapter 11 Raeth 6,080 Chapter 12 Raeth 3,822 Laene 463 Chapter 13 D’naa 2129 Raeth 4295 Chapter 14 D’naa 1586 Raeth 1360 Chapter 15 Raeth 1149 D’naa 588 Raeth 1724 D’naa 301 Raeth 1800 Chapter 16 Raeth 4575 Chapter 17 D’naa 4391 Darro 427 Raeth 2157 Chapter 18 Raeth 3000 Laene 714 Raeth 2144 Chapter 19 Shaad 664 Raeth 4625 Chapter 20 D’naa 213 Raeth 578 D’naa 137 Raeth 4405 D’naa 321 Raeth 562 Chapter 21 Raeth 2530 D’naa 2271 Chapter 22 Raeth 1537 D’naa 1232 Raeth 333 Darro 910 D’naa 253 Ala’d 323 Chapter 23 Raeth 1332 Laene 342 Raeth 3120 Laene 501 Raeth 276 Chapter 24 Raeth 762 D’naa 760 Raeth 2157 Chapter 25 Raeth 567 D’naa 406 Raeth 880 Darro 1493 D’naa 1106 Raeth 977 Chapter 26 Darro 1160 Raeth 1734 D’naa 1806 Raeth 913 Chapter 27 Raeth 1383 D’naa 1032 Raeth 3257 Chapter 28 Raeth 724 D’naa 484 Raeth 2009 Epilogue The Former 399 its also interesting to note that even though Darro only got less than 4,000 words told through his PoV throughout the novel, Brandon loved his character enough to make him a transplant character in Nightblood(whenever it comes out) Edited July 20, 2020 by Eternal Khol 5

Half of this good book and half of this good book shuffled together. The Shakespearean farce, which is fun and, kind of silly, and this guy who's in not in a position to lead... and the deep worldbuilding war novel with the cosmere magic. And it's like, "We're going to shuffle these together and see how it turns out." Questioner I loved it. I thought it was good. Brandon Sanderson And my brother's cameo is in this book. Darro is named after my brother, Jordo. Barnes & Noble B-Fest 2016 (June 11, 2016) 2
Elegy he/him Posted July 19, 2020 Posted July 19, 2020 Beautiful! I love statistics 5 hours ago, Eternal Khol said: Ive modeled the charts after the ones Elegy provided. I took the formating from the Coppermind's Statistical Analysis pages (but left out the chapter percentages, since I felt they didn't say all that much). Judging from the pages' histories, I believe the user to establish this was @cem, so that's where the model and the idea come from!

Thanks for pinging me! Good work, @Eternal Khol! Oh wow, the whole Cosmere? Looking forward to it! Hmm... pretty sure Kaladin has the highest word count of all so far
