ParadoxicalZen replied to Lightning's topic in Events and Signings
Well...IIRC, the events are fair game given the sometimes cosmere heavy questions and WoBs received, with the exception of the spoiler limitations on new books -

Have yet to buy sun/moon, gonna get a preowned X and AS first. With levelling, I usually go by the surrounding g wild pokemon; if I'm either same or a few higher, then I would say you're fine

Darkness [Edgedancer Spoilers]
ParadoxicalZen replied to thegatorgirl00's topic in Stormlight Archive
I see the Heralds' issues/faults as to do with breaking the Oathpact than anything else, granted we don't k ow the circumstances that forged it in the first place so it's debatable either way. One thing is for certain; I think we safely say that drooling bald man/presumed Herald in the WoK prologue is not Ishar, given how Name has described him -

I seem to recall something along the lines being said that Honourblades can make cracks due to the exorbitant amounts of storm light required by average people to use it but I can't be certain, like how Mistborn Spoiler -

[AU Spoilers] Bavadin, Autonomy, and new info
ParadoxicalZen replied to FirstSelector's topic in Cosmere Discussion
Or it may be Brandon playing on the trope about presuming some ambiguous characters to be male, like Bleeder/Paalm. Granted, Bavadin seems like a masculine name given Brandon's written naming conventions but also seeing as how Aonic requires alternative emphasis on word sounds, Baa/vah/dIN could easily be Buh/vah/dEEN or Buh/vay/dEEN Off the top of my head, any WoB I've seen pertaining to Bavadin/Autonomy has Brandon never actually respond with a gender pronouns but I could be wrong mind, nor have I seen any WoBs asking if Autonomy has changed Hans, other than the one saying that some Shards have, but it doesn't happen often -
Random Stuff IX: Rogue Admins

@Kaymyth I've done it a few times, but its usually a kind of gliding thing where I'll get as high as I can but the sky is like a ceiling and I'll hit it and then be pulled down by gravity. -

Has anyone had the utmost intensely irrational desire to fly, like a bird/insert-other-mythicalornonmythical-flying-species-here? Cause I have and am currently doing so. I really want to know what it feels like -

[AU Spoilers] BS preface & Scadrial essay
ParadoxicalZen replied to masaru's topic in Cosmere Discussion
True, but if that was the case, then Taldain would still have a Shardpool so as I said, depending on how much a Shard can manipulate/interfere with their Shardpool (or if they even can) then accessing it could still be possible through the CR (perhaps it is super difficult to do so similarly to Sel) but perhaps Autonomy sealed it off in the PR which would have a domino effect in the CR, thereby negating the issue. Too many unknowns -
[AU Spoilers] BS preface & Scadrial essay
ParadoxicalZen replied to masaru's topic in Cosmere Discussion
Hmm, missed that. Seeing as the WoB uses 'inaccessible' and 'currently', I can think of three likely scenarios; 1. Autonomy is no longer present in the Taldainian system, so no Shard > no Shardpool > no shadesmar worldhopping + no FTL ships either (could be used as evidence for A = T theory) 2. Autonomy isn't actually Invested in Taldain itself but in it's resident star (seeing how little we know about how much influence a Shard can exert over it's respective Shardpool, the pool's location can be argued either way ) and has somehow sealed off the system from being entered 3. A similar scenario to Odium being unable to leave the Rosharan system but this time, either Autonomy/another Shard/another force has instigated some kind of lock/barrier -

Can you link the Taldain info? Must a slipped under my radar -
[AU Spoilers] BS preface & Scadrial essay
ParadoxicalZen replied to masaru's topic in Cosmere Discussion
Your observation is correct Yata. My guess is, from the points succeeding, Ascensions. As we know, in terms of potency, Rosharans are much stronger and have access to a must more vast Investiture resource whereas the only known Scadrian to have similar access was Vin with the mists...but even then, the Investiture potency of liquid Investiture/Shardpools must be heaps above that of gaseous sources as Rashek moved the planet...so I..don't actually have an answer -
The Official Thread of Relationships
ParadoxicalZen replied to Curious Anamaximder's topic in General Discussion
I question sometimes if i even feel 'love' I mean, I have the desire for a relationship yet I also chafe at the idea and want to run a mile. My attention span is incredibly short so any company I do keep I usually tire of but I still want the company. I can talk to girls/women easily but struggle immensely to be seen in a romantic manner or as anything more than a brother/close friend (which is fine, as I regard most of my female friends similarly) but it gets a little grating and tiresome after a while. I guess...I just hate feeling lonely even though I know I'm not alone Or maybe I'm just over thinking and my head needs a little shrinking and I'm just not cut out for basic human interactions -

ParadoxicalZen replied to Lightning's topic in Events and Signings
Question(s); Can a Shard have more than one godspren level/type/class Splinter and if so, can they exist in two far apart places (different star systems)? Can a Shard send a significant amount of it's Investiture to another place so that said place becomes Invested? How long does a Shard's Investiture need to stay on a p!anet for a Shardpool/Perpendicularity to form? -
Its hard to say for certain, as SotD is pretty late cosmere so it's history events could easily be around the same time as any of the book's timeframes EDIT: although, now I'm wondering; could the inherent trait of the pool's Investiture be manifesting throughout Patji itself? We know from SA (minor SA, Jasnah excerpt and Elantris spoilers)

Night core. Especially when its traditional Irish songs (Celtic woman <333) or some Buddha Bar if you fancy some jazzy chill out sounds. Meatloaf is always good -

ParadoxicalZen replied to soyperson's topic in Entertainment Discussion
Establish how many and who they are; I'd go for five and you can have demi/lesser gods representing different sandwich combinations
