With the increased understanding of Surgebinding, I feel the "someone healed me" is a really easy explaination (regardless if he was a Radiant or a Fabrial). By the way, I fel weird that after the discovery of Shallan/Jasnah as Soulcasters and the usage of Oathgates.... Nobody even wondered if it is possible the existence of Fabrials able to performe the other surges

The earrings to work as spike needs to be part of her and be quite literally inserted into her soul.. it's definitely into her regardless of the blood
-
I don't see it as automatic, as Vin's earring is not burned also if she use quite often Durallumin (and the very few times she burned aluminium).
-
Yeah and if he would not change the method to obtain immortality for that point, he would probably start to use other little tricks to gather the needed youth like using Durallumin to burn the storage faster or make multiple peoples store youth for him messing with Identity to access to their Atiummind too. But honestly, he need only to keep compounding for 2-3 years... He could use the Well to become fully immortal if He wishes.... At this cycle of the Well, he had time to design the Well's power usages and exploit the Ascension

Did Shallan ‘kill’ Pattern like Kaladin did Syl?
Yata replied to Fanghur Rahl's topic in Stormlight Archive
Shallan didn't kill Pattern in her childhood. After the mother's death she started to repress herself, something that would lead to Pattern's death for Oathbreaking. Luckly enough as the regression wasn't instantaneus. Pattern managed to flee into the CR before it was too late. This allows him to survive also if in bad shape... we don't know if over time he would die in the CR for Shallan's regression and their bond evaporating. On a slight tangential point (as you wrote it in the OP), Spren before the right Oath can't become Blades, regardless of their will... They need the Bond to have reached at least a certain threeshold before they could be pulled fully into the PR and manifest themself as ShardBlade -
Unless I misrememer the wob, that was only about the physical damage. You will probably die regardless from the spiritual damage done to yourself. Of course this scenario doesn't preclude an external source that apply Healing to the victim to make her heal. We know the Primers could store from inanimate objects, if we assume they could be used to make a subject tap too... I don't see a living being as different
-
As Calderis said there is no instance of Heralds having or refering to have Plate of any kind (other than Nale, but he is something more). Much more Kalak stated to be murdered many times from Thunderclast's claws and this is an unlikely scenario if you are an unlimited fueled Surgebinder with a Plate (that use Investiture to repair itself)
-
By the way, we don't even know if a Bloodmaker is more likely to not die when Hemalurgy is performed on himself. If he die on the spot... He can't use the Healing to fix himself. There are a couple of istances in cosmere of Spiritual Shock distrupting the ability of a user to performe magic for a while (it's what happened to TLR and the reason he didn't simply pull his own metalminds back), so if you performe Hemalurgy on someone with an active auto-Healing... He probably would die like everyone else would do, of course if he survives the Hemalurgy itself, the Soul could be fixed with his own power
-
Some terrismen could be long descendants of him, of course his directs children need to be not Feruchemist (to be saved from the Mistwrath turning). For a while I toyed with the idea of someone in the Kandra Comunity to be originally one of TLR's children, but the Mistwraiths don't live enough to be part of the second gen
-
I doubt you could use the Steel-Iron to levitate an object for the same physical reasons others already pointed. Zane's feat is mostly countering the gravity with his Steel using a coin as anchor and he could rotate on himself with his own moviment to unbalance himself a bit and start a controlled movement
-
Rashek's Atium compound could not last forever, soon or later his ability to produce Youth will be not enough for the amount of Youth he need. Of course this is a moot problem as probably he would turn himself truly immortal with the Well at the next chance.
-
Yeah it was a quite recent clarification. Before we believed stronger allomancers simply could burn the metals with highter rates and therefore gain more power/s.
-
I don't think they could perform AonDor for the weird situation they were in. I assumed the best they could do was to feed themself with Investiture (unclear if it is the Dor or something else) to keep their Elantrian status at last partially at work (unless they will die for old age) but they can't performe AonDor (by the way, for how the AonDor works... I wonder if it could be used in the CR at all...)
-
I don't think there is a correlation here. Simply to become an Elantrian you need both to spike the connection to the area and to spike the actual power. For the radiants, I don't think you need to spike multiple stuffs.... But honestly I don't even think the Hemalurgy will work at all as Radiants require the Spren approval... So you will need to act as a Radiant regardless
-
All the books ' evidences say otherwise. As almost no progresses were made by the Steel canton in a millennium
-
Hemalurgy has not a genetic component and it works with everyone. Probably Brandon was just loosely speaking there or simply if you consider Scadrial alone without the rest of the Cosmere... That sentence makes sense
-
It's a bit more complex than "17 godmetals" because in theory different Vessels's metals also with the same Shard could result in slighty different godmetal (example. Vinium would act differently from Lerasium) and in theory we don't even know if different Avatar of the same Vessel would result in different godmetals (Example: we don't know if Bavadinium and Pajium could be differents).... Mostly reasoning on hipotetical godmetals is a moot point
-
We knows it's possible for the WoB about the effect of an Atium-Lerasium alloy and the Lerasium-Bavadium Alloy. Harmonium is not an alloy of the two but rather a new element made by both Ruin and Pres... There is a WoB on that too. And of course there is the huge component (that others already pointed) on the inability of the usual Metalborn to burn something from a Shard he has no connection with.

Shallan and Adolin's wedding gifts from Cosmere characters
Yata replied to Messydesk's topic in Cosmere Discussion
Poor present, they already did to themself... it's called marriage -
Why did Aona and Skai decide to settle together?
Yata replied to goody153's topic in Cosmere Discussion
We know that other than Honor & Culti, there were at least another relationship of that style among the Vessels, maybe it was the one between Aona and Skai -
Like Cal said. Probably they tried to avoid that problem using a Leecher but they understate the amount of charge he had
-
Or also the Monks as their magic requires others to be sacrificed.
-
Actually I disagree with the Steel Inquisitors placed as undead or much more like Vampire in the specific (this is something most in line with Returned, as you pointed). But if you place the Inquisitors as Undeads simply because they are made with Hemalurgy, you probably need to place in the list Koloss too. To me, any kind of Hemalurgic Construct is actually a Spiritual Frankenstein Monster... But honestly in the cosmere the whole definition of "undead" seems to me quite frail, under some assumption every Cognitive and Spiritual Being could count as a "ghost" of sort, Shards included
-
What magic did honor take? And how their messing with pre-existing stuffs is meaningful for something that was designed to work in that way far before they started to mess ?
-
The whole gemheart mechanism predates the H&C's arrival on Roshar, so it can't be designed by them or their relationship
