  1. Actualy, it is not slimmer, it is just that Rosharans have eye colors that don't exist on earth, like light yellow or dark violet. The difference is that lighteyes have gemstone light eye colors and darkeyes have almost black eye colors. Hazel and other intermediarie eye colors don't seem to exist on Roshar. Also, more misconceptions: For me Szeth is so pale his skin is the same color as his clothes. Maybe it was the guard asking "What are you, spirit or man?", and now he looks like a ghost to me.
  2. I Love You, by Woodkid is a wonderful song for Navani in Way of Kings, when she almost fells that Dalinar hates her and he is doing his best to supress his feelings for her. Counting Stars, by OneRepublic for Dalinar getting tired of doing war for money and seeking a more meaningful life for himself and all of Alethkar. Oh, and Home, by Phillip Phillips, for the Shallan flashbacks when she tried to make life better for her brothers.
  3. Meteors hitting the moon and throwing rocks into space? I mean, that is what happens outside the cosmere.
  4. The problem is that vorinism loves simetry, especialy in words, so it would be expected that its primary script would reflect that simetry by having one letter for each phoneme and each phoneme being represented by only one letter. English is... not like that at all.Maybe I am judging english to harshly, since it is not my native tongue, but you must admit that it is just plain weird at times. But to be fair, I doubt any written language is like that.
  5. Bah. Everyone knows chouta is eaten with bare fingers.
  6. The safe itself, of course, not the contents.
  7. Yes, but it is also not truly alive, so it may also need to sync with the wielder hearthbeat to be summoned.
  8. Except, as I said before, Roshar doens't have any eye color that isn't almost black or gemstone light, so you would be a worldhopper without an disguise. My eyes are hazel, with more green than brown, so I would need eyedrops to go unnoticed.
  9. For some reason Amaram is always white, and Adolin's skintone varies, even when I get everyones skin color right.
  10. No. Here is the first hint: The first two things are more mundane than they seem.
  11. No. I made it to be very difficult, so I may drop a hint if it takes too long for someone to get it right.
  12. Maybe it is part of it, but as far as we know she just uses her ability to touch spren to climb Wyndle.
  13. Wait, you mean Dalinar isn't always in a blue and silver uniform? I could swear he slept wearing a uniform with a cerimonial sword on his belt.
  14. For some reason Dalinar's height varies depending on who he is speaking to, from average Alethi height when speaking to Shallan to taller than Rock when speaking with Rlain.
  15. In Roshar eyes only seem to come in "almost black" and "gemstone light" varieties, so I guess people with intermediary colors just plain don't fit in the vorin social system, and if a number of them appeared the ardents would start a assembly to decide their position.
  16. Except if Kaladin could use Adhesion to decrease pressure and air resistence, or perhaps create favorable air flow, wich may be part of what he does when he is riding the winds with all the windspren. Also, I wonder if Adhesion works underwather, or in any gas that is not "air" as we see it.
  17. But then how does simetry work if different letters have different sounds in different parts of a word? For exemple: Ghoti ≠ Fish. English spelling is weird.
  18. So far as we know, Ruin couldn't splinter Preservation because their situation was unique, as being complete polar opposites. Maybe to splinter Preservation he would have to splinter himself, since their powers oppose one another automaticaly. Also, we don't really know how shard to shard combat works, aside from Ruin versus Preservation, wich is a unique case. Perhaps it varies so much from shard to shard that experience isn't of much use. Perhaps in three hundred years Sazed learned enough to be able to use his powers with mastery, and there is some cap about how much you can learn that makes his and Rayse's finesse with their powers very close. The only obvious weakness Harmony has is forcing its holder into non-intervention.
  19. Actually, if someone could fake laughter it would be Shallan. Not saying she WAS faking, of course, just nitpicking. EDIT damnation, accidentaly downvoted a post by Emerald101, can someone upvote to compensate?
  20. Honestly, the evolution of military uniforms through Roshar must be more confusing and contrived than the number of common aquaintances between the main characters.
  21. I have no idea if Pattern looks like black ink or if he looks like an pattern under the surface of things, but I will always see him as a black, ink-like, pattern flowing around over the surface of things
  22. Yes, I know, but I called one of the four items wine in the second last line. Not Szeth, althought I added that line just so people wouldn't think it was Szeth, since the rest fits so well
  23. Elsecallers seem to be willing to kill to prove a point, so they probaly believe ideas>people and probaly served as guardians of knowledge during desolations Stonewards valued determination above actually being right. Bondsmiths seek to mantain unity, even when it mean letting someone like Sadeas or Amaram get away with their crimes. Honestly, I am surprised they managed to coexist during a single desolation.
