This is a fun activity rather than a serious theory.

 

You are creating an interworld team to combat Odium and the Ghostbloods etc. 

I'm going to suggest a limit of two characters per Shardworld, and no gods or near gods, though I'll let you set your own rules.

 

Whom do you pick and why? Thinking about how they interact as well as act. You can equip them as long as you can explain how they have access to that equipment. You can decide how much timeline timings matter to you personally

I pick one person: Vin. The GBs have now joined the anti-Odium coalition, as Kell is going to help his daughter.

Oh, I get more people? Elend.

So that’s two powerful Mistborn, plus the Fullborn and his ‘crew’ they just converted...

Nalthis: Vasher and Nightblood.

Sel: Shai. Although her powers won’t work she has many other abilities that will.

Taldain: Khriss for her knowledge. Kenton for his skill.

Threnody: Nazh, because he comes with Khriss. Silence because she’s awesome.

First of the Sun: Sixth of the Dusk and Vathi, if only because they are the only two characters we have from there.

Roshar: Dalinar, as the Stormfather’s Bondsmith. Kaladin because... I think this is obvious.

Yolen: Hoid and Frost, the only two non-Shardic beings we know came from there. 
 

Yeah, Odium is chull food. Now, if we can just keep Kell and Hoid from each other’s throats...

Super fun! 

Roshar: Kaladin (because well, he's Kaladin Stormblessed) and Ishar (he knows more than Dalinar does, so until Dalinar reaches his level...Ishar it is)

Mistborn: Obvious, Vin and Elend. GB wouldn't dare to strike their own.

Nalthis: Nightblood and Vivienna/Azure's sword because terrible things will happen when they combine and Odium already knows how terrible NB can be. GBs can diminish themselves in aftershock. 

Taldain: Khriss and Kenton. Too bad we can't take Bavadin. 

Threnody/First of the Sun: (Uh...haven't read these book. xD) 

Yolen: Frost and Hoid...wippeee, bye bye Odium.

Mistborn: Wayne and Marasi

Roshar: Venli and Leshwei (Although I guess she's kind of a god) so Rlain

Nalthis: Nightblood, I mean come on, and Vivienna

Taldain: Just a whole bunch of sand

First of the sun: A couple of those death-seeing aviar

Yolen: Hoid because he's the only character we've met

I love how we can now eliminate one entire threat just by recruiting one person: Vin.

V: Kelsier, whatever you’re doing with these Ghostbloods, you’re going to stop and help me.

Ghostbloods immediately join the Ascendant Warrior. (Kell does love his daughter.)

Posted

Ooh! This is fun! :D

I went more of the “Cosmere knowledge and science” route than pure combat effectiveness/magical powers.
Scadrial: 

  • Vin. Good relations with Kelsier. Very sneaky, so she fulfills the “Rogue” archetype. Also a really good fighter capable of fighting foes with gravitation without the fear of falling.
  • Marsh. Very proficient with hemalurgy, so we can have that magic system on our side. I’d very much like to see how we can steal various surges from fused. Also is a full feruchemist and allomancer, so he’s practically immortal.

With both Vin and Marsh, I think we can rely on Kelsier to help, but not take over. I think we can count on the Marsh-Vin tag team to keep him in line.

Nalthis:

  • Nightblood. For very obvious reasons. The question is who to wield him? It’s possible that Marsh’s compounding could allow him to hold Nightblood indefinitely, which is somehow scarier than Szeth with Nightblood.
  • Vasher. Another Cosmere scholar. He can help Marsh with all his hemalurgy.

Taldain:

  • Khriss. Again, getting all these Cosmere scholars together to take down one goal seems very promising.

Roshar:

  • Dalinar. I feel like with Khriss and Vasher here, Dalinar will catch up on the Bondsmith training he’s missed and come up with some interesting uses of connection. Plus whatever’s going on with him and honor’s splinters/unity.
  • Navani. She’s a second Bondsmith, plus she knows probably the most about fabrials out of every living character. My main reason for including her is actually for cohesion (no, not the surge). A lot of these people have very strong personalities that would grade on each-other, and I think Navani could help smooth some of that tension (pun very much intended)

Okay, this is fun.  Let's see here...

Scadrial: I'm gonna go with Vin, because obviously, and Wax.  

Taldain: Kenton and Aarik, because I think he's cool.  (Aarik can be Hawkeye - no superpowers, very cool.)

Sel: Not sure... it's been a while since I read Elantris.  Maybe Hrathen.

Threnody: Nazh and Silence.

Nalthis: Nightblood, obviously, and Vasher, because someone has to keep the sword in check, and Vasher knows how to deal with Nightblood after all this time, I think.

Yolen: Hoid.  'nough said.

And Roshar: Kaladin and Navani.

Ok I didn't make a full Cosmere team and I'm probably breaking the rules but the first place my brain went was this image: Rysn riding full-grown Chiri-chiri with Lift riding behind her wielding Nightblood while drinking from a camelbak type setup of straight calories :lol:

Posted

Sel: Shai, and maybe Raoden, he fixed the Dor so he might be able to get the magic to work, or we could just have it work.

Scadrial: Vin and Elend, because I doubt Vin would join without him.

Nalthis: Susebron, because Tenth Heightening monster.

Roshar: Szeth and Shallan.  If you even need to list people from Roshar since that's where Odium is.  I can think about eqipment and iteractions in a bit.

If you want to be technical, the Avengers do have a god on their team...

So my team is going to be led by Vasher, because he's like basically just Nick Fury. 

Kelsier is basically Iron Man. (Punintended).

Vin is basically black widow. 

Kaladin is Thor.

Raoden is doctor strange.

Jerick (from Dragonsteel Prime) Is basically Captain America.

Hoid is Loki

Dalinar when he goes Blackthorn mode is just the Hulk. (Maybe thats a reach?)

And to finish Sixth could be Hawkeye.

Maybe switch Kaladin to be Captain America and put Taln in as Thor? According to Brandon, he's the mostly likely person to be able to lift Mjolnir after all!

Sazed would probably be the most 1:1 comparison. (Scholar in base form, hulking warrior of destruction when the situation calls for it, struggling to find peace within oneself), but maybe Zellion could also fit this category.

Ohh interesting choice!

Not to completely change directions, but what about an Anti-hero team? Like the Marvels Dark Avengers or DCs Suicide Squad? I'd do:

Scadrial: Lord Ruler/Marsh

Roshar: Taravangian (pre ascension)/Szeth

Nalthis: Nightblood/Vasher

Sel: Hrathen/Riina

Threnody: Silence

Yolen: Hoid

I know that this isn't all the planets, but I don't know enough of first of the sun, and I haven't read white sand yet. Regardless, an Anti hero team of vigilantes and forcibly reformed villains would be pretty dang cool. What are y'all's thoughts?

Posted

Scadrial:

  • Rashek: Generally op and would probably be the heavy hitter. (Rashek from before he was corrupted by Ruin after 1000 years)
  • Kelsier: Great plotter/planner and would be the leader. Also has hemalurgy knowledge

Roshar:

  • Kaladin: Great team player and would mesh with everyone else
  • Szeth: Cause Nightblood

Nalthis:

  • Vasher: Has a large knowledge of Awakening
  • Susebron: Has 10k breaths

Sel:

  • Hrathen: Dedicated and has knowledge of whatever the bone magic is called.
  • Galladon: Chill+Elantrian+Already Worldhopper

Yolen:

  • Hoid

Taldain:

  • Khriss: Cosmere knowledge
  • Kenton: cause sandmaster

Psychological warfare group:

Yolen: Hoid. Because Hoid.

Roshar: Jasnah and Taravangian, because Jasnah is good at insults and Taravangian is good at mind games

Scadrial: Wax and Wayne, because the two of them are just completely baffling sometimes. (Also, just because Wayne.)

Sel: Galladon and Sarene, because Galladon can make people depressed, and Sarene, because of how quickly she managed to cause someone to hang themself.

Nalthis: Lightsong and Nightblood, because both of them are at least somewhat crazy.

With this team, there should be no problems driving everyone insane! (Well, everyone that wasn't already crazy)

This team would tear each other apart.  Taravangian and Jasnah would tear each other apart not just because one is atheist and the other a god but because they both would want to be in charge and would engage in all kinds of political and underhand games against each other. 
 

Wax and Wayne would just ditch the rest to do their own thing with night blood. 
 

Galladon and Light song would spend the entire time drinking and being otherwise useless while Sarene would be caught in between the political games of our 2 would be leaders. 
 

Hoid would either do one of these three things 

1. Become a mastermind who controlled the group from the shadows and secretly lead their every move.  
 

2. Get thrown out of the group after they got tired of his constant insults.
 

3. All of the above.

First, I was thinking Taravangian pre Ascension, so that wouldn't be a problem. Second, I don't think Galladon ended up getting drunk in Elantris at any point, Lightsong would be there just to troll people, and all you need to do is stick your victims in the same room as my group and watch as their mind just gives up. Also, I now kind of want to change from normal Hoid to Hoid when he was cursed by Riina, because that would probably be even more mentally destabilizing.

Nalthis: Nightblood and Vasher

Roshar: Kaladin and Dalinar

Scadrial: Vin and TenSoon (I'm surprised no one has mentioned him yet)

Sel: Shai and Raoden

Taladain: Khriss and Kenton

Yolen: Hoid
