The one who reads: Instead of having an enchantment called Nahel Bond, why don't you use an 1/1 Enchantment Creature called Spren with bestow? EDIT - To everyone who commented on it, I made Vin Gold because it looks cool and these aren't actual cards. I acknowledge that in a real set, it wouldn't be gold.
-
Nice, although a little expensive. Does the X in the mana cost have to be the same number as in the activated ability's cost?
-
Would anyone be interested in a Kingkiller Chronicle RP? I'm not sure exactly how it would work, but it probably would take place at the University, or at least start there. I'm willing to GM, or if someone else really wants to they can.

What you hear is wrong. At the Dark Alley we bake Cookies of Ruin, Odium, Dominion... you name it. In fact, I am the specialist in Baking cookies for the non-Metallic magic systems.

Here's a thread to post custom Magic the Gathering cards that are Sanderson book themed. Here's my first one, Vin, Skaa Mistborn. (Her planeswalker/legendary enchantment creature sequel will be Vin, Ascendant Warrior) (Click the image to make it full size) Please post your own card ideas. You can make cards at mtgcardsmith.com.

I think I'll take a look at Corvallis.

I'm not sure. Where else could he be?

theory Cohesion and Tension (and Division) Part 2
ostrichofevil replied to ostrichofevil's topic in Stormlight Archive
Really? Wind runners can't weaken gravitation; they can only create it. If you see a wind runner who's floating it's because they've created reverse gravity to counter Roshar's. My Division can be used to melt stones. If you weaken the intermolecular bonds in a solid, it will melt (without heat). As for fire, I believe that that is created using Abrasion, by the Dustbringers.- 20 replies

theory Cohesion and Tension (and Division) Part 2
ostrichofevil posted a topic in Stormlight Archive
Several months ago I posted a theory on what the surges of Cohesion and Tension do. Here is a link to that post, but I'll sum it up below: Cohesion: Weaken, or even dissolve the intermolecular bonds within a substance. Tension: Strengthen the bonds within a substance However, this theory has a major problem: the actual force of cohesion (wikipedia page) holds substances together, while in my theory Cohesion breaks them apart. Also, my idea for the Surge of Tension doesn't have much to do with what Tension actually is. (and the Coppermind page says that it alters the stiffness of an object.) So, here is my new theory for what the Surges of Cohesion, Division, and Tension do: Cohesion: Strengthen the intermolecular/atomic bonds within a substance or object. Example uses: - Create a wall of solid air by strengthening the bonds between the air molecules. - Make your armor virtually impregnable by strengthening the metallic bonding. Tension: Make a substance stiffer--increase its tension Example uses: - Stiffen a carpet, allowing people to walk on it--and then when they've fallen for your trap, release it, and watch them fall into your strategically located pit. - Walk on water by increasing its surface tension Division: Weaken, or even dissolve the bonds that hold an object together. The opposite of Cohesion. Example uses: - Weaken the intermolecular bonds that hold your enemies together, and watch them dissolve into piles of sludge. - Destroy the bonds that hold a wall together, allowing you to walk right through. That's my new theory. Please reply with feedback, speculation, and/or possible uses for these powers.- 20 replies

Good point. In that case, he lives in Los Angeles, California.
-
It would probably take about 5 minutes of concentration to get that hot. He rules Nantucket Island, on the east coast. He's normally fairly peaceful (for an Epic), but when he uses his fire for too long he becomes unstable.
-
No, but if he doesn't concentrate it only lasts 10 minutes. He can cool down to -60º Fahrenheit and up to 1000º Fahrenheit. If given enough time, he can create temperatures up to 4000º, but that takes at least several hours of partial concentration.
-
It would melt. However, he can will it to stay frozen, and it will stay frozen until he wills it to stop staying frozen. Shard-Shattering He can control maybe like 1000 kiloliters (a cube 10 meters on each side). On a good day, he can control up to 8000 kl (20x20x20), but that takes a lot out of him.

Let's write Cosmere-themed limericks! Here's mine: There once was a Mistborn named Vin Who sat upon a pin. Her Pewter she Flared, At the prankster she glared, And Pushed it right back at him.
-
There's more than one way that he can use it. If he simply shoots the Winterflame at the steak, then yes, he would get a cold but cooked steak. However, if he wants to make a hot popsicle (like with hot chocolate), he would continue to will the liquid to freeze even as he heated it up.
-
It makes things both freeze and burn and can't be extinguished by normal methods. He has an interesting way of cooking food where he targets it with his powers, causing it to freeze while without becoming cold.
-
Here's my second Epic idea: Epic Name: Winterflame Powers: Water/Ice Manipulation Fire Creation and Manipulation Can combine Water/Ice and Fire to make a "Winterflame", which he frequently uses in combat Does that work?

Does anyone already have a power that has to do with plants? Using vines to attack the enemy etc. EDIT - Or elemental powers?
-
There's already someone with those powers? In that case, I'll try to think of something else.
-
Okay. I think I have an idea for an Epic: Epic Name: Silverflux Powers: Can turn any metal into a liquid (without increasing the temperature) Can telekinetically move and "bend" (Avatar style) any metal liquified in this way Can solidify liquid metal Can temporarily turn any other liquids into liquid metal I'm open for comments. I'm supposed to PM someone my weakness, correct?
-
Thanks! I think that I'll start by looking at Salem, since I have some Epic ideas.
