Hey, I resent that remark! We're clearly buzzards. Anyway, the idea itself has merit, especially if Frost doesn't know about the 4th dead Shard or the thriving community living in its bones.

Heal Spook, hurt Szeth. 1. Kelsier 6 HP 2. Kaladin 4 HP 3. Vin 5 HP 4. Elend 6 HP 5. Shallan 6 HP 6. Dalinar 5 HP 7. Vivenna 5 HP 8. Siri 5 HP 9. Adolin 4 HP 10. Spook 4 HP 11. Sazed 5 HP 12.

Yes. Roshar is one of them. We don't know if any other galactic landmarks were created by Shards or by Adonalsium. I would rephrase the question such that it asks whether there are important unInvested or naturally Invested places/things/etc. in the Cosmere which were NOT created by Adonalsium or his successors. And if yes, have we seen any of them?

This. The grand majority of all the W&W books have very little to do with the Western setting, and much more to do with Wax being Scadrial's Sherlock Holmes. Or, in the case of BoM, Scadrial's Indiana Jones.

I suspect that Lightsong and Blushweaver's returns and political moves caused Bluefingers to accelerate his plans just a tad too fast, so that he'd be in too deep when Susebron was healed (by Lightsong, who was only present because he'd been targeted by Bluefingers for his command of a Lifeless garrison). Endowment, therefore, wanted to head off the impending Manywar, restore the God King to his full strength, and punish the schemer by bringing his works down around his ears.

And I'm certain that the Khriss we saw was selflessly giving up her own water ration for the sake of her beloved professors. [/sarcasm] Besides, "a couple of hours" seems like a pretty good time frame between the start of the Darksiders' deprivation (if you can even call it that) and their discovery of Kenton, as ludicrously coincidental as it is. And the annoyance you mention could easily contribute to the irritability and general 'tude that Khriss displays throughout that scene.

I like that idea, especially if magic is possible on Darkside. (I assume Investiture is available on Darkside, somehow?)

A naive college student with a silver spoon in her mouth, perhaps?

I don't think Autonomy would be "in" the sun, any more than Preservation was "in" the mists of Scadrial. Sure, the bulk of his power might be there (and in Darkside's light source), but I'd be willing to bet that like any other Shard he's keeping watch over his domain, rewarding and punishing as he sees fit.

Because Nicrosil is expensive to produce, and there aren't enough copper veins in the world to keep up with demand. The limitations on Copper feruchemy are such that the memories in question will emerge from the coppermind as short-term memories, defeating the purpose of using them as study aids. I could go on, but it won't be quite so simple as "Copperminds make school obsolete."

Mine is major - a 15-Note sequence (lots of deconstructed thirds) repeated throughout the verse, then a separate 10-Note sequence for "and with a song you'll sleep,/ my baby dear." I'll write it out once I get a proper note ID app. Or access to a piano.

Okay, posters for Words of Radiance... Still splitting it into three, like I did for WoK. Part one (Stormlight 4: Winds' Approach) would be Shallan falling into Shadesmar, Renarin falling in Shardplate (with Dalinar and Zahel in the foreground), and Kaladin falling into the arena with Adolin's 4-on-1 duel. Part two (Stormlight 5: The Blade, The Act, and The Soul) would be Pattern on a cracked mirror, on which is reflected the Davar family in public and in private, Syl over a bucket of water (Kaladin and a jail cell should be reflected in it), and a stormspren in a jewel, through which is seen Eshonai, looking concerned. Part 3 (Stormlight 6: Words of Radiance) would be Shallan looking out of the Oathgate at Urithiru, Kaladin glowing and protecting Elhokar, and Dalinar on the Shattered Plains facing the Stormfather. Poster scheme for Stormlight 5 lovingly ripped off of @mirahound's wonderful idea.

I'm almost afraid to watch this, because I have my own headcanon version of Shallan's lullaby which will almost certainly conflict with yours.

He does find himself in train top duels surprisingly often, though.

Gaining the 5th Heightening just so you can finish a jigsaw puzzle.

Remember how people felt back when WoR was released when Szeth and Jasnah came back from the dead? Imagine that, but worse. The Beyond is for characters whose stories are finished, not for those who still have a part to play.

Isn't there a thread for this? (Keywords "Where's WalDo?")

Point of order: this hypothetical Augur would not be able to Forge, because they wouldn't have the requisite SDNA to form the proper bond with the Dor. A Forger could travel to Scadrial and get an unsealed Gold Allomancy nicromind, though.

It was Iron, IIRC, charged with Allomantic steel. (We didn't see how exactly he got it, but long story short Ruin tricked him into getting it implanted)

Short answer: yes. Long answer: What @Pagerunner said.

First off, I'd split each Stormlight book into 3 movies, and each movie would have several posters showcasing the main characters, all of which would have matched compositions. For the first movie (The Stormlight Archive: The Way of Kings) it would be Kaladin in the slave cage, reaching between the bars for Windspren!Syl, Szeth reaching for Gavilar's black gemstone, and Shallan reaching for a Soulcaster. The second (Stormlight 2: Dying Storms) would be Kaladin against the highstorm, Dalinar in battle against Parshendi (on a generic gem heart raid), and Jasnah after the battle with the muggers. The third (Stormlight 3: The Silence Above) is Kaladin charging into the battle of the Tower, Shallan charging into the library to confront Jasnah, and Taln charging toward a village in the distance. The taglines for each would be the three parts of the First Ideal, naturally.

You could probably steal emotions from her, but hemalurgy is the epitome of "don't try this at home."

In addition to the interference problem and the human shape problem, there's also the problem that a "zombie" spren is similar in case to the Post-Reod Elantrians - namely they're not entirely dead.

So I'm cobbling together a retelling of the Ravenloft campaign, with an additional metaplot concerning the final days of Barovia. In said metaplot, the Dark Powers have gotten supremely bored of Strahd and his interminable angst over his lost love Tatyana, so have decided to dissolve the Realm and move onto greener pastures. However, Madame Eva has cajoled them into one last game of wits: the Powers must choose one last adventuring party to serve as catspaws, who will then be tasked with fulfilling three wishes for the darklord - Strahd. (This is mainly a stalling tactic so Madame Eva can start evacuating people) However, what should the boons be? One of them, naturally, should be the Ireena subplot (Tatyana's reincarnation - souls are of limited supply in Barovia, and Strahd is cursed to recognize, then alienate each incarnation), but I'm having trouble with the other two.

Aunt Lu and Uncle Won, I believe were the "characters" in question.
