  1. Happy birthady, Nathrang!

  2. Sometimes I think we overcomplicate things. Everyone would be shocked if "keeping eachother company" was a reason for a mysterious worldbuilding element in Stormlight. It would be a brilliant twist on Brandons part.
  3. Eragon would stomp Kaladin. He could just break into his mind and keep on death-wording him until he runs out of Stormlight. And Kaladin might not even be able to hurt Eragon, depending on how his magic shields work against Shardblades.
  4. By who? A bunch of KRs, a Shard, Fused...?
  5. Welcome! Have an upvote, hope you enjoy the Shard!
  6. It is probably boring to guard a door, especially if you are alone. They are there to keep eachother company.
  7. I started to wonder, how does this work? Since Nale is a Cognitive Shadow with a body, and is connected to the Oathpact, wouldn’t his bond be wierd in some way. For example, what happens if he dies and goes to Braize? Will the spren go with him?
  8. Agreed. If they did, Pattern would beat Syl in every single popularity poll.
  9. This is far to complicated for a simple toaster to comprehend. You are wrong. Uh... NO MATING!
  10. The bolded part was wrong, so I fixed it. And yes, I totally agree, Patterns awesomeness is around 1000000.
  11. What are you guys talking about? Aside from Raoden and a rushed ending, Elantris is pretty great. Liking Syl over Pattern is like dividing by zero. Impossible, and should be forbidden :-)
  12. I think you have gotten your eras mixed up. The current Mistborn Era (Era 2) is around the time of SA. Era 4 is far into the future :-) As to the theory itself, I think Hoid will be an antagonist, and yes, maybe the big bad in the final Mistborn story. I also agree regarding the ”bringing back a dead person” theory, and I think that will be his motive. I don’t think Hoid is a bad person though. He cares about people a great deal, but there is probably someone dead who he cares even more about.
  13. Amaram is my favorite Stormlight character, and my second favorite Cosmere character, behind Kelsier. Neither Taravangian, Nale, Moash or Amaram are evil. Moash is an interesting character, even if some of his chapters were kinda boring. I think Jasnah is cold and too self-important. She is overpowered as well. In short, don’t like her. Renarin is, apart from his powers, not that interesting. Lopen and Lift can be too much. Stick is overrated. Pattern > Syl. Always. I also agree with @CrazyRioter on Navani. She shouldn’t be a Bondsmith. Warbreaker, while still good, is the worst Cosmere book. Edit: Emperors Soul is overrated.
  14. I am all for parents and couples. Just want to add fan-favorite characters to the mix as well.
  15. Hoid TLR Vin’s mother Mare Jezrien Nale Chanarach Vedel Paliah Ash Battar Kalak Ishar Raodens mother Kwaan Wyrn Wyrn the First Shashara Arsteel Yesteel @I am a STICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Great list. Fixed caps for you, its a pet peeve of mine :-) Taln would totally invent mashed potatoes. He loves helping humanity. Who would kill Taln for inventing mashed potatoes?
  16. Accidental double post.
  17. Spoilers for Mistborn and Warbreaker: In short, I doubt this is an issue :-)
  18. The Ghostbloods are wierd. They are the most mysterious secret society on Roshar (that we currently know of), and probably the most dangerous too. The Sons of Honor wound up being a non-factor (their one on-screen member is dead) and the Diagram, while competent, is currently being absorbed into the forces of Odium, and hasn´t really had the huge amount of success they expected. But the Ghostbloods are still out there, and hasn´t even made one major play yet, as far as we know. I thought a bit about Mraize recently, and suddenly, I got an idea: what if Mraize is the Head of Information in the organisation? So, why would Mraize be the Information-boss? Well, first off, he knows a LOT. He knows everything about the Skybreakers, he knows of Shallans family, of the Diagram, of Amarams involvement with the Sons of Honor, of Ashs madness and of Talns location. That is an incredibly extensive list. Second, whenever we see him, he is trying to obtain information of some kind. He is constantly sending Shallan to spy on various people, or, in OB, to find Re-Shepir. He is himself seen spying on Ialai. He is undercover in Dalinars army during the Battle of Narak as well, and interrogates Ash, presumably for some kind of info regarding Heralds or the Oathpact. More or less everything Mraize does is about gaining information. We also know that Mraize is a title, and a title generally comes with some kind of position. What if a Mraize is a master spy/Head of Information? If Mraize is the Ghostbloods major information guy, the powers of his Aviar would probably relate to information-gathering as well. I believe that the birds powers is either the powers that we see Sak having in Sixth of the Dusk (being able to warn its master of eventual death) or some kind of power relating to sensing danger or emotion. If we look at the birds interaction with Shallan in OB, it chirps at her twice, both times when she appears to be angry at Mraize, or threatening towards him. Having an aviar that works as some sort of warning signal, wether through sensing emotions or warning of general danger, would be of great use for a spy like Mraize. I don´t know how reliable this is, or even if it is important, but I felt like posting it, in order to see peoples reaction.
  19. Adolin died in the original version of WoK, but in the canon books he obviously survived. I don´t think he got a pass on dying though. I would be surprised if SA10 ends and Adolin still lives.
  20. He lets go of Sah, his daughter, Noro, Beard and technically Skar and Drehy too, for a while.
  21. You might be right about his problem. Still, he gets past it. He lets Elhokar go.
  22. Nope. I am born 99 so I never really got into 80s movies. But please tell me. I’ll guess on Terminator for the fun of guessing.
  23. That actor needs to be Tom Hiddleston.
  24. I would argue that Kaladins OB arc is a complete arc. He finally accepts that he can’t always be a hero. He accepts that everyone can’t be saved. These are huge steps for his character.
