More than just the moon can wax and wane.

Would a Tineye be able to smell, on the breath of a mistling, what metal they are burning, functioning as something of a close range Seeker?

Game: Sentence by Sentence Fanfiction
David Coppercloud replied to Atilium's topic in Sanderson Fan Works
"Does my meaning have to be nice when speaking to the likes of you?" -
I think it would be cool if a savant Coppercloud were able to block the vision and ability of Coinshots and Lurchers.

I'm just excitedly waiting for Sanderson to introduce a character with the ability. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tx79_X9pKto

I like that Sanderson changed things around a bit, and tied in the western theme with what readily available bits of metal Wax could employ as a Coinshot, rather than having him throw money around the place. It has been awhile since I read the book, but does anyone else think that a discarded bullet casing would roll along the ground when acted upon by a magnetic push from above, instead of acting a strong anchor? And in that case might a coin, also, slid along the ground, if it where pushed from an angle other than directly above?

Awkward Silence... ... ... Say! Any of you guys know how to Madison?

Perhaps my thought would be better illustrated with Aluminium and Chromium. Would it make a difference whether you are burning a little or a lot, the effect would be the same, particularly in the case of Aluminium, you're immediately out of other metals. Or is it not instant, and it does make a difference if your have a lot of aluminium in your system and/or are flaring it?

With regard to Miles: If I were a secret organization that was collecting Mistlings and potentially had agents everywhere, I might take measures to secure Miles a very powerful twinborn, with everyone thinking he is dead. I can think of two ways that his execution might have been faked. The first is that those last bullets that were shot in his face to confirm his dead could be employed to have the reverse effect; shooting him in the face with some of his own metal minds. All one would need to do then would be to steal away the body before notices signs of life. Yes he has proven to be stubborn when taking orders, but there are many tools of persuation in convinsing a man who heals rapidly, to do what you want. The second is: is there a visual difference between a Gold Feruchemist healing quickly and a Kandra moving around his meat? There is a rumour floating around that one of the characters was swapped with a Kandra during the course of the book. And the book Marsh gave Marasi: I think Brandon had cleverly incorporated as a part of the book as the index after the last chapter. Note that it is written in the first person, especially the section dealing with Hemalurgy.

To the King of Nowhere. I don't think that you would have an immediate infinite amount, it would probably be a proportionate amount of return compared with how much was in the metal mind you are burning. Though it would probably be compounding at a higher rate of return. Also I think it would still be possible to catch that windfall in a metal mind, if one has the knack for it. Back to the topic in general, if Duralumin and the other auxiliary metal were all used up at the time of their burning, and each to their intended effect, wouldn't that mean that the amount that was burnt would be irrelevant, as the returns for a small amount would be the same as a large amount. That kind seems like it defeat the purpose of Allomancy requiring fuel.

Following the silly answers.This is who I think should be the cast if anime characters were actually actors, who had real lives off screen, and had to do auditions: Kelsier: Kamina, Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagonn Vin: Re-l, Ergo Proxy Elend: Ashitaka, Princess Moninoko Shan Elariel: Android 18, Dragon Ball Z Sazed: Angemon, Digimon Ham: Armstrong, Full Metal Alchemist Breeze: Lelouch, Code Geass Clubs: Jet Black, Cowboy BeBop Spook: Shinji Ikari, Neo Genesis Marsh: Nicholas D. Wolfwood, Trigun Dockson: Maiza Avario, Baccano! Lord Renoux: The Count of Monte Cristo, Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo Lord Venture: Kaiba, Yu Gi Oh! Lord Ruler: Light, Death Note

Thank you my Baron, for your generous invitation, I am glad my excessive eagerness had not caused offence. TwiLyghtSansSparkles, please forgive me if I am speaking out of turn, but I do believe that a Compounder is one that would have access to both the Allomantic and Feruchemical abilities of the one metal, with the Feruchemical trait being of a near limitless supply. In the case of Chromium that is the Allomantic ability to drain the metal(s) of another mistling, and the Feruchemical ability to store luck, with the luck being made a boundless store with the combination. In regards to the event described in your tale, considering all things, I believe that it is divine providence that cause such happenings to be of such great fortune to you.

Why dear sir, do not be discouraged. I had not been referring to yourself as a gargoyle; I had assumed that a building of this age and architecture would have anthropomorphic gargoyles. But if I am a poet then it is just as likely that you would be a gargoyle. In either case please forgive a foreigner of his eccentricities.

The forum signs me out automatically. This isn't a major issue, but just gets annoying having to sign back in again, all the time.

And the winner is Chrono!!

Does anyone think that Miles will make a reappearance in the sequel? His own abilities would be the mechanism, so it wouldn't that much of a deus ex machina.
-
No the worst cast would be if Steven Seagal played everyone, and the only mark to distinguish one character from the next would that for each of them he would try to do a different accent.

You Know You're a Sanderfan When...
David Coppercloud replied to Shardbearer's topic in General Brandon Discussion
When you suspect that they put soft drink into aluminium cans, so that Lurchers had to get up and go to the fridge like everyone else. -
Yeah sorry guys, I think I went a bit overboard, and I didn't realize that Friday isn't a thing in the book(s) that I'm meaning. + the style I wrote it in is misleading It is not Joel from the Rithmatist, and neither is it Stephen Leeds nor Alcatraz from Legion. It is a Sanderson book, and do we really need to have gender pronouns on the internet?

Whether I shall turn out to be the hero of my own life, or whether that station will be held by anybody else, these pages must show. To begin my journey with the beginning of my journey, I record that I awoke on a Friday, at twelve o'clock at night, with a thumping great headache. - Can I jump in like that, or is it someone else's turn? -

When you look at a periodic table and google metallurgy as background information for your Allomancy theory. * Note: most of the alloys have forms that contain copper. Not just Brass and Bronze but also Pewter and Electrum * -
Off the top of my head: Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagon FLCL Baccano! The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood Trigun Cowboy Bebob Samurai Champloo Dragon Ball Z (Kai) Zoids Gundam 00 and Seed Sword Art Online (the first half) Attack on Titan Angel Beast Fruits Basket Naruto Pokemon Digimon Yu Gi Oh! Last Exile Code Geass Death Note Ghost in the Shell It's weird, I find it hard to think of shows like Pokemon, Digimon and Yu Gi Oh as being anime, since I watched them before I knew what anime was. They have always just been normal.
