Tien likes to listen to any kind of rock (sorry)

I think bloodmakers can do it too. I imagine hypnosis works too

Yes, but I could not find a quotation specifically, so...

So, shapeshifting. That does not have a large position in the cosmere books. I don't think we have really seen it at all, so your curiosity should be piqued. Instead, let me walk you through healing: We know that the reason Kaladin did not heal his slave brand, but Lopen healed his arm was due to their perceptions of themselves. Kaladin saw himself with his slave brand. Basically, healing is modelled after a certain pattern defined by self perception. I think most people having read the night angel trilogy notice something here (massive night angel spoilers): I should introduce the following assumption here: Healing occurs whenever someone's physique differs from the perception/pattern proposed. Basically, it amounts to this. If someone who can heal changes how they see themselves, they will shapeshift, and this could be used to powerful ends. What do you think? Please tell me if I missed something. EDIT: Added a spoiler tag

I definitely agree with that. I always saw the body he took as that of TLR. Not sure why.

Also with what Wax understands at the end of BOM.

[Bands Spoilers] Redshift - because someone has to!
timasp replied to aeromancer's topic in Mistborn
Light, apart from a photon, is a wave. Brandon has mentioned somewhere that if something is half in, half out of a speed bubble, wether it is sped up depends on how said object sees itself. The way I see it is this. When the light sees itself as inside the speed bubble, the whole beam is suddenly incorporated at the same time. Now, as mentioned in the main post, the speed of light is constant. either the light sees itself as completely out of the bubble, or it progresses inside the bubble, entering the bubble instantaneously, without crossing any sort of 'boundary'. This would mean no red shift. That's how I always saw it, at least. -
I think there is WOB that Hoid failed to become an elantrian, but hung around elantris for a while

I may be wrong, but I think there's WOB that it works through feruchemy. Basically, it works both ways. You can burn your reserves, or you can burn a metal with the added amount of the attribute in it.

There has to be something else. There's always another secret. -
I accidentally bonded a spren. Oops. I think I'm a theory weaver, but I have yet to speak the second words.

I'd argue that preservation has the power of a mixture of all metals, but one metal brings one aspect of you closer to preservation
-
I'm pretty sure that we have WOB that there are not 10 "void-orders", and that the correlation is not 1-1
-
hm, the code doesn't seem to work for me, or is there something wrong?

What happens if you cover a hemalurgic spike in soulcast blood? Here's my theory: First off, we know from SoS that covering a spike in blood transfers powers hemalurgically, and that investiture is intrinsically linked to perception. If a radiant were to soulcast blood right onto a spike (atium, in this case, because it holds everything), what would happen? Because perception has so much power, I think that it would be as if that person's blood covered the spike. A person spiked with this would thus gain control over two surges. If someone else were to use a soulcaster, it would still be their blood on the spike. This might have other ramifications, but basically, soulcast blood is a replica of the blood of the soulcaster. What do you think? EDIT: as many have pointed out, I misread SoS, and so thought that covering a spike in blood (completely) was the same thing as stabbing someone.

I think, though, that the blood variation may be due to who's talking. Not everyone is specific with colours, so...
