Aesudan Kholin, Theories and Speculations
thegatorgirl00 replied to Gavin-son-son-Odegard's topic in Stormlight Archive
If Aesudan were working with the Diagramists, that would probably mean she is acting spoiled and selfish on purpose. Her actions would turn people against her and the leadership, creating the discontent and riots currently gappening. That way, when Mr. T comes in with his Jah Keved army, the people would welcome him with open arms due to his reputation as a kind and generous ruler. Storms, I like this theory. The two of them could basically just be playing good cop bad cop on the scale of countries. The main problem with this is that Mr. T never thought about or mentioned her in any of his chapters, which you would expect him to if she were such an important part of his plans.- 108 replies

You Know You're a Sanderfan When...
thegatorgirl00 replied to Shardbearer's topic in General Brandon Discussion
So Hulk is a pewter savant. When you misread perpendicularly as perpendicularity. Every time. -
Does anyone else find it suspicious that Swara's mother is mentioned once at the very beginning and never seen again? I think she did it.

I know you said to ignore the in-world book part, but I went on the Coppermind and found the ones I think are most likely to be a later title anyways. Arts and Majesty- the book that defines the masculine and feminine arts. The subject matter seems like something Jasnah might discuss, but the title seems to fit Shalash perfectly. Nearer the Flame- a classic story about a man's descent into insanity. Seems to fit Taln best, but it might also work with Szeth or Eshonai. Shadows Remembered- a book of children's tales about the Voidbringers. Seems like it would fit Lift, but for some reason I'm leaning towards Renarin instead. Not sure why. The Arguments- part of the Vorin doctrine. I like this for Jasnah. Palates of Personality- a book about food. For Lift, obviously. Times and Passages- don't know what it's about. It sounds like it could work as a title, though. For Eshonai, maybe. Western Voyages- don't know what it's about. It sounds like it could work for Szeth. There are other books, but those are the ones I think are most likely to be titles.

AU says Roshar is .9 cosmere standard, aka Earth, so I suspect it is smaller than your estimates. -

Students can choose to join the HSA, or Human Spren Alliance. This club, led by the faculty's main liaison to spren Professors Jasnah and Ivory, is working to overcome the thousands of years of animosity between spren and humans that came as a result of the mass murder of the spren. Current projects include petitioning for the ban of the use of dead Shardblades, led by Professors Kaladin and Sylphrena. Nahel bond not required for entry, though students in the club often find themselves developing one. Join HSA today!

Narrowing Down the Last Shards [AU]
thegatorgirl00 replied to Khyrindor's topic in Cosmere Discussion
@Kaladin Zahel, instead of Humility, I think Charity would be a better pair for Ambition. Ambition- trying to better oneself Charity- trying to better others I think the third in the set would have something to do with inaction, the desire to observe without interfering. I keep thinking about the deist idea of God, but I don't have a good name for the attribute.- 164 replies

Don't worry, we've all been That New Guy before, and I know how hard it can be to figure things out when you first join. My main concern was that you would have people interested in your game, since I know how disappointing it can be when a game you're playing dies due to lack of interest.

We actually already have something like this that takes place in September. It's called the Annual Sanderson Tournament. You could still make this, but you would probably want to make it different somehow to get more participation from the people who do it in September. Here's the most recent game.

Narrowing Down the Last Shards [AU]
thegatorgirl00 replied to Khyrindor's topic in Cosmere Discussion
I do not believe there is a Shard based entirely on having knowledge. While it is a traditional godly attribute, I think realmatics covers it to some extent for all shards. All shards can see in the spiritual realm, and all shards have some amount of future sight. I'd suggest replacing them with the following (some of @ROSHtafARian's choices) Internal pushing : Invention -- the desire to discover new things. Alternative names could be Exploration or Curiousity. Internal pulling : Caution -- to think carefully about knowledge before acting. Alternative names could be Wisdom or Forethought.- 164 replies

Who will die in Oathbringer?
thegatorgirl00 replied to Toaster Retribution's topic in Stormlight Archive
I have a theory that if a Herald were killed by Nightblood, they would die permanently. Nothing that concrete, but it always seemed to fit the little we know about Nightblood and the Heralds. We need more information about how the Oathpact works first. -

Stormlight Archive Translation Guide
thegatorgirl00 replied to Harakeke's topic in Stormlight Archive
I recall a WoB about the J pronounced as Y being a more modern lighteyes phenomenon. So Jasnah and Jezerezeh would have the Y sound while Jezrien and any darkeyes would have the J sound. I saw this a while ago though, so I might be misremembering some parts. If anyone knows what I'm talking about they can post it, or I can search for it later.- 379 replies

[Snapshot Spoilers] Snapshot Reactions Thread
thegatorgirl00 replied to ccstat's topic in Other Stories
Did you read Brandon's postscript @Mason Wheeler? It talks about that problem. I enjoyed the story. I have a lot of questions about the world this takes place in. Is the thing that powers the Snapshots basically an epic? I hope we can eventually learn more about it. -

I'd suggest using these titles for the Era 1 characters. It doesn't have TenSoon or Human, though. http://coppermind.net/wiki/Preservers My suggestions Sadeas- You may name me a liar, but I did what I did today as a mercy. A way of letting you die in glory, rather than watching you descend further and further. Adolin- I believe in Father. I believe he’s right, that the things he sees are real. That the world needs a united Alethkar. Fights like this one are my way to make it happen. @esamitch, can you give an update on which ones are still needed to narrow the search?

It looks like you didn't include any of the numerals. There might be a couple others on the Coppermind page as well. http://coppermind.net/wiki/Glyphs

Cosmere University Paper Topics/Ideas
thegatorgirl00 replied to blakismaximus22's topic in General Brandon Discussion
If you wanted something shorter, you could do The Emperor's Soul. There's a lot in there about the nature of art and beauty.
