    It'd be very hard for her to do it imo. Every power she could have Marsh has and more, and he's had time to make much bigger stores. If she goes for speed he could in theory tap even more because of having the time to make a much bigger storage, and he could have compounded it. Combine that with tin, and the freaky inquisitor vision, and Marsh would be very hard to get the drop on by surprise. Unless the trellium spike doesn't get a blue line..... I'll have to reread the end of SoS again to see if it mentions that. Anyways, it was hard to kill normal inquisitors as a mistborn or feruchemist in the original trilogy. Marsh has been upgraded far beyond that iirc HoA.

    Great series, only real criticism is that I wish they had read mistborn about push and pulls involving weight. A few of the fight scenes drove me nuts watching because while she was strong, she would have been pushed back more.
  3. Charononus
    Make me think of this.

    Sazed was long limbed and lanky according to the text because he was a eunuch. Which is odd because I thought that the process made eunuchs pudgy but.......

    OreSeur had many broken bones at that time, he was having a hard time even walking. Pretty hard to fight when you don't have a working skeleton.

    If the soul is damaged my guess is that it pulls information from one of the other realms.

    Hasn't really been in real history either. You have short periods without conflict but nothing long term.

    This depends on how broadly you want to define things. Some of the first chemotherapy drugs were a class called Alkylating agents. These were derived from mustard gas after it was used during world war one. The advances in war don't have immediate use in other fields typically but they have effects that typically get discovered shortly there after.

    Honestly just about every science gets boosts from war as people look for ways to get an edge.

    Honestly this and Sazed changing things were my first thoughts when reading the books. But I feel the need to point out that someone told me about the WoB talking about Marsh's atium. I'm really bad at searching for the WoB's though so unfortunately I can't find it.
  11. Charononus
    There are way too many unknowns imo. Also I think I remember seeing someone say that there was a WoB that Marsh has been going 300 some odd years off of a small bag of atium and would be able to be around a while longer, so I think that's a big problem with your math on this.

    Yes but their surgery is late 19th to early 20th century. Gravitation and air pressure were discovered here in the mid to late 17th century. I doubt the rest of their sciences are more than 200 years behind their medical skills.

    Ok I'm curious on how you'd define me then. I say atheist but maybe you have a different take. My problem is that I'm very literal minded and don't believe in anything that can't be measured. Now I really don't care one way or the other about religion in general, either so I'm curious on what you'd call that.

    IMO Hoid is probably as close to being a shardholder as you can get without being a shardholder. Hoid fascinates me.
  15. Charononus
    I don't know. Newton published in 1687 and the barometer was made in 1643 iirc. Roshar has an odd mix of technology. If their surgeons are any indication, I'd say they could probably be in a similar educational point as the this time period of earths history. Now that doesn't mean that any windrunner will know it, but that they could.

    I recently started going thru the original trilogy again, and had the same thoughts. Man I think copper feruchemy has to be the magic I wish for the most out of all the fantasy book magic powers I've read.
  17. Charononus
    Not really a faith. It's meaning is that you don't have a faith.
  18. Charononus
    Well honestly I think Nalan is crazy. He may follow laws, but his perceptions are completely skewed to where you can't really trust a thing he says.

    Classic Trell

    Charononus replied to Oudeis's topic in Mistborn

    Depends on the morality system. Journey before destination, it'll always be wrong. Ends justify the means and it could be right.

    Also I assumed that when the blood dried the decay protection was lost, so quickly using the spike seems best still.
  21. Charononus
    I thought the same.

    I don't know, I think if he tried to trade some whiskey for Shardplate poor Wayne would end up with rapidly depleted metalminds.
  23. Charononus
    I don't buy any of it. With how the honorblades seem to all be in shinovar, and how the shin seem to have a law before all things going on. (Szeth was a product of his culture) I think the skybreakers did survive and are in Shinovar.

    My take on it is that she would be able to be a radiant on another planet. However if she say went to Scadrial and ate some Lerasium, she would be able to augment allomancy with the pure investiture she gets from food, producing extremely powerful effects similar to when TLR soothed crowds etc.
  25. Charononus
    I just want to see more Hoid.
