  1. Powder mage is great, but not really on my top 10 list. On my top 100 for sure though.
  2. Yes it is! Just go to your settings and do it. If you have these sorts of questions in the future, put them on the "tech support" board.
  3. But these are just coins. His uncle doesn't believe that he was able to do it, and insisted that he was lying. Only some people have that ability.
  4. Wax says something very odd in a flashback. He is with his uncle Edward who is showing him a coin and a counterfeit duplicate. He tells them apart by overlapping them in his eyes. I've always assumed this ability is a result of him being a twinborn, kind of like when Radiants get abilities from mixing two shards. Then he says something very odd. Is this a common ability on Scadrial? Was this friend an unusual person? Discuss
  5. Lift! She would say: Who would eat "richer" food, Hoid or Denth?
  6. Maybe Syl could provide the umbrella... SHARDBRELLA!!!!
  7. Can malen and femalen go into mate form? Spren are very connected to the emotion a person is feeling and what they think about the world. If a parshendi doesn't feel like they are a gender, it would seem like they would have a hard time bonding mateform spren.
  8. My computer is named stormlight, and I think that's half the reason I've never gotten throttled by my school's wifi guy. He's a cosmere fan too!
  9. Something interesting: usually, male humans bond female spren, and vice versa. What would parshendi perceive as their spren's gender? How to Parshendi reproduce, anyways?
  10. "Subspren" is not offensive when Rotspren is so clearly inferior to Honorspren. It's like calling a scoop of jello "subhuman."
  11. I have studied MMA for seven years now, and I have to say that the punch scene annoyed me a bit. It wasn't a very good punch. Thumb on the outside is nothing special. The trick is to make it go over your first two fingers, and that is pretty easy to get the hang of. I feel like somebody as good as Kaladin would be so accustomed to that he wouldn't mention it. His first two knuckles hitting first is great, but again, not really special if it's a hook punch. You definitely don't want it sliding across the front of his face. That means you missed. The idea is to punch them right around the ear so that it hits them full on in the side of the head. Having your hand slide like that is the mark of a really bad punch. It doesn't mean Kal is a bad fighter to throw a punch like this once in a while, but it certainly isn't great enough to talk about.
  12. I know this is odd, but I really love the back shelf. It's got all the flowers, and that basket, and pictures on it. I don't know why, but that's really awesome.
  13. But Wyndle said that she would have bonded another person who made shoes for orphans. Sounds a lot like Ym so I think Ym must be an Edgedancer.
  14. Renarin is a Truthwatcher, but the Stump and Lift and Ym are all Edgedancers. They are very different. Edgedancers remember and consider those who are abandoned.
  15. Kaladin. His spear Katas are awesome, and if he were in one of his guilty modes, he would want to hide his face from everybody, and stuntmen usually do that so they are t recognized as such Who would play the tuba better, Zane or Marsh?
  16. The real question here is what sort of insanity does Ishar manifest? His attributes are Pious/Guiding, so maybe his insanity has something to do with restarting the Heiocracy? Also, I think its unlikely that Mr. T is working with Ishar. The Heralds are of Honor, and Mr. T seems very influenced by Cultivation.
  17. Welcome to the forums! I hope we can nourish your love of the Cosmere, and keep you sated until Oathvember arrives!
  18. Yeah, we are really desperate for Oathvember.
  19. Maybe you could make a Deathstar moon? Or would that be to far away from the magic source?
  20. We'd need a unit that has an exact amount, every single time. An allomantic bead can be measured fairly accurately by weight, but the results are difficult to measure exactly. In mental metals such as zinc, it is difficult to measure the person's reaction because it is an emotional response. In physical ones such as tin, you have to keep the allomancer's original physical abilities into account before measuring, and that is difficult to do. With Stormlight, since the stormlight leaks out of the gems, it isn't really possible to get a consitant unit. You could measure them right after a highstorm, but we don't yet know if each highstorm has the same amount of investiture. You could measure the amount of investiture in a single grain of sand on Taldain, but the sand gets it's investiture from fungus that grows on it, and maybe some fungus grows more on some grains than others. Since Dor flows into a person over time, there is no way that can be measure. Lightsong complains that he is always fed breath from children because as people get older, their breath gets weaker. So Breaths are not constant. The only constant unit that I can think of is a Divine Breath. They are given out by a shard, and I imagine Endowment is fair about giving everybody equal amounts. They don't seem to disappear, and they are easy to measure. So I'd say the best way to measure Investiture is through units of Divine Breath.
  21. Generally the realization of these traumas leads her to creating a new Truth that moves her farther along through the ranks of Lightweavers. Maybe this will inspire a new one.
  22. This is interesting: could you really bond multiple spren? I feel like that's kind of cheating on the spren. But maybe it could happen.
  23. I work at a biotech lab and people send in information about their cats and dogs, as well as samples of their poop so we can study their microbiome. Today, I was glancing over some of the information about the cats. There was one person who sent in information about two of their cats. One cat's name was Jasnah. The other was Kaladin. Is the person who did this on the shard?
