Due to the unusual ecology of Roshar, there's much less oxygen in the air. As a result, Sapphire soulcasted into air is a luxury item that can be bottled up and redistributed for profit. Here is a visual representation of the process

[OB] Black Sphere Brandon Trolling
Patrick Star replied to Child of Hodor's topic in Stormlight Archive
He wanted a desolation, not a sudden en-masse slave rebellion. Gavilar's goal was to spark the return of the Heralds, presumably without dying himself. Simply healing the parsh would have been bad. He wanted to make sure he sparked a desolation when he was ready. -
[OB] Black Sphere Brandon Trolling
Patrick Star replied to Child of Hodor's topic in Stormlight Archive
I think it's more that Gavilar wants whatever's in the gem to be used at some point. If Navani, Jasnah, or the Parshendi got it, whatever's in there would never get out. Remember, Gavilar wanted to start a desolation. Hiding the sphere wouldn't be ideal, but it's better than having it go to someone who doesn't share his goals. -

He probably lied and claimed he made it so as to not around suspicion. -

I'm like 99% sure it's Ba-abo-mishram. After seeing Nergaul or however you spell it trapped in the king's drop, Navani mentions that she saw that Gavilar had something similar. It's definitely an unmade, there's really no other good explanation. -
You were expecting it to be Yelig-nar, but it was me, DIO!

contest [OB] There is no way Dalinar could loose if ....
Patrick Star replied to SzethIsBadAsHell's topic in Stormlight Archive
I think if Dalinar had anything that was loose on him, Adolin would drag him to his tailor for a refitting -
I don't think combing the gravity surge is a good idea. Any style you'd be going for would just get abnormally floofy and never settle down. It would look like you just took a bath in a vat of hairspray.

[OB] Kalak in the prologue to Way of Kings
Patrick Star replied to NiceBleach's topic in Stormlight Archive
If the "Unmade are Heralds" theory is correct, Kalak corresponds to Yelig-nar, and his form of madness is specifically a lack of willpower (as Yelig-nar engages its host in a battle of wills to determine if they're consumed). Also fits with him being the patron of the Willshapers.- 13 replies

[OB] The Unmade. Gotta catch 'em all!
Patrick Star replied to Bigmikey357's topic in Stormlight Archive
IMO Ba-abo-mishram is in Gavilar's sphere that he gave to Szeth, so it's likely still floating around in Jah Keved somewhere -
He did swear it after the battle. His Highspren's just scared that Nightblood's going to eat it, so it stays hidden. Nale has both his Honorblade and his Sprenblade. He probably doesn't use plate because he's been acting as a police officer, and it would draw too much attention, especially since he's never been in a situation that required plate. That's not true, though. He vaporized the floor in a circle a few feet in diameter immediately upon being drawn. Nothing like cutting through butter at all.

In Warbreaker, Nightblood vaporized stone ceilings and walls. The only reason he didn't also vaporize the ground below the people is that they're separate objects, and he was only touching the person.

[OB] Who do you look forward to seeing?
Patrick Star replied to Toaster Retribution's topic in Stormlight Archive
I think I speak for everyone when I say I'm excited to see as much Moash as possible in the future books. He's such a well-written character that he's misunderstood by so many people here, and I really think that he'll end up being the hero of the series and the entire cosmere moving forward. In fact, he's such an incredible guy that he definitely wouldn't sneak into my bedroom and hold an honorblade to the back of my head as I wrote stuff on the internet. No way, he's way better than that. Please send someone, I need help -
[OB] How do you pronounce Stormlight names Part 3
Patrick Star replied to Llarimar's topic in Stormlight Archive
Rysn is actually a microprocessor, apparently -
Because she currently holds a position as a merchant/banker right now, and the Bondsmith who bonds the Sibling was likely involved in running the day-to-day operations of Urithuru, which due to its oathgates was a major throughway and economic hub back when the Radiants were around. It fits her character and qualifications.

[OB] Who will NOT be Radiant?
Patrick Star replied to Toaster Retribution's topic in Stormlight Archive
Moash -
It's inactive because they need to construct additional pylons

Can we all agree to call her new sword Whiteblood?

It's actually Mikasa from Attack on Titan

[OB] What's up with Oathbringer?
Patrick Star replied to Sherlock Holmes's topic in Stormlight Archive
Not OP, but the movie has multiple failings in terms of plot and character. We waited 34 years to see Luke on the big screen again, and we find out that he's gone full emo on us and spends 90% of the movie whining about how bad the force is, then dies. The whole mutiny plot with Poe was idiotic from the start. Clear orders from command would have caused none of the movie to happen in the first place. Instead of giving orders like "We pass an old outpost in a bit. We'll cloak transporters and escape while they focus fire on the main ship", they instead just go "oh we'll just wait here to die, k?" Then, if those orders come through, Rei gets trapped on Ren's ship. It's like the transitive property of plot holes. Finn starts off as a wuss and tries to desert. Poe's opening scene was out of place. No way in hell both Rose and Finn make it out of that final battle alive. -
[OB] Engineering solutions to Rosharan problems.
Patrick Star replied to Gasper's topic in Stormlight Archive
Why go through all that effort though? Bombs are way cheaper and easier to produce than fabrials.
