That is a load of assumptions. Many don't apply to most settings.

I am sorry but I think you misunderstood me. I also want less focus on Kaladin, I just don't think he is not interesting to read about.

For the Szeth fight, I wouldn't say Kaladin's swordfighting surprised him. He was shocked because he became incapable of denying the return of the Radiants, and being surprised, afraid and deeply shaked by having your worldview shattered stoped him from fighting with his full potential. But yeah, Szeth isn't that much of a swordfighter anyway, he prefers to use his lashings in creative ways and fight dirty. Nothing Kaladin ever did made me think he is nowhere near Szeth when it comes to his surgebinding skills.

First, if Kaladin had no prejudice against lighteyes it would be very unbelievable, considering he had all it would take to reach high layers of society if it wasn't for the vorin chaste system, and instead became an expendable slave. Second, some of us like to read about characters with depression. What you see as "mopeyness" in him I see as something that helps make him simpathetic. Third, not all of us who want less Kaladin POV chapters dislike the character. It is just that there won't be enough space for all characters if Kaladin takes half of the book, and he doens't need half of the book.

The person who did this comic could have double checked some things...

If you think directly messing with people's brains is the only way to convince them to do or think what you want them to, then I don't think I will be able to convince you without resorting to telepathy.

I'd put the information Szeth had above the blade. The person who gave him his orders is still out there.

There is no such a thing as emotional radiancy. Shallan manipulates people tge old fashioned way, with some subcouncious lightweaving once in a while.

And you still think three syllabes are to long a name for the reader to remember?

Yes and I sort off skipped the "knowledgeable" part, and assumed you only meant it would have a different effect if Vin had burned it. Althought I still think you don't need to be a mistborn to access this other effect.

Really? My first name has three syllabes and most people call me by my last name, which also has three syllabes and is harder to pronounce.

I don't know, I hate using placeholders. Also, what are your feelings about four-sylabe names? Too long to go with no nickname?

Okay, I will use this name for a sailor since I already found a name for the butler.Anyone else can't write without thinking about the right name and just can't use placeholders?

Actualt, it was mister Suit that did it.

Shallan?

They never reach who they shouldShallan is like the sea

How does Tornward sounds as a surname for an occultist?

I need a name for a butler. Anything, I doubt he will appear after the first page.

Unfortunately, I write in portuguese . Sorrynotsorry.I may try to translate it, if I ever get it done to the end.

Nah, the saint was scary, but I like to make good characters very creepy. Or you are right. It is not like there needs to be an answer anyway. I just prefer the theory he was the seal that held something else trapped.Now, I must leave and write a story about a cannibal witch who is not evil . And go write my horror story. If I had so much ideas in half an hour, it may get too big if I wait too long.

Nope, she comes back to him in the end because he told(and wrote) the history.

Thank you for the incentive. I think it would also be good pratice for my conventional writing, since I like to place my protagonists in a strange balance of extreme creepyness and fundamentaly good morality, and if I move the balance further into the creepy side I could get sone interesting antagonists. I can feel the ideas proliferating.Now, a guardian... A dark spirit, guarding a secret entombed by a saint... A ship visits the isle, only a man returns, spared by the spirit, and reveals the secret knowing it could mean the death of his nation. But what is entombed with the saint? A monster wouldn't fit the magic system, so what. Is. There. Now I know what you meant when you wrote that you didn't know what was behind the scenes, Morzathot. I like this sensation. PS: a green arrow for who guesses why the protagonist is spared.

Really? I am more intelligent than avarage, and know my share people who are probably much more intelligent than me and still threat others less intelligent than them normaly, while I felt like Kvothe was trying to show how smarter than everyone he was every two chapters.He isn't the accidentaly arrogant smart guy, who subcounciously assumes he is tge most intelligent in the room even when he means absolutely no harm because he usually is the smartest in the room. He isn't the guy who assumes everyone to be as intelligent as he is and confuses them. He isn't the guy who is smart but has no clue about how to deal with people and either does not notice or does not care. He feels like the guy who takes pleasure of being above others and showing it to them, something that is very anoying for me as a reader.

The only one of those we know for sure is the writing on metal.

A question related to a theory of mine that would surely be RAFOed, "Is the humming done by ardents while soulcasting related to the Rhythms listeners attune themselves to?", or worded in a less direct way, "have we seem non-parshendi doing something similar to attuning to the Rhythms?
