  1. Granted, but every time you receive physical damage you age one year. Get shot, age a year, get blown up, age a year, get a paper cut, age a year. I wish for a cursed object.
  2. Also, before reading Arcanum Unbound's Mistborn short stories, read the Mistborn sequels first, as the short stories contain spoilers for the sequel books (especially secret history).
  3. @Staphylococcus why are you sorry, we use Hemalurgy, thread necromancy is encouraged here.
  4. @Staphylococcus uses thread necromancy, it's effectiveness remains to be seen.
  5. Can you tell me where you found this passage, cause I don't know it, and I would like to read it. Edit: Never mind, I just found it. It's interesting. Edit 2: Her is it if anybody was wondering:

    Aonic names

    Alright, thanks.

    Aonic names

    What makes a name an aonic name? I know that it has to have an aon in it somewhere, but are there other requirements? For example, we know Aon Reo exists, so would Oreo be a valid aonic name?

    Roshar's Sun

    They aren't, if you follow the link I posted you'll see that with a sun of the mass of my early estimates the distance from the sun where the orbital period is 1.1 earth years wouldn't fall inside of the habitable zone.
  9. http://www.theoryland.com/intvsresults.php?kw=savant So you would basically be as powerful as Preservation I guess?
  10. http://www.theoryland.com/intvsresults.php?kw=savant (second WoB) Edit: Nevermind, ninja'd by Extensian.
  11. Wasn't there also something about using Forging on mistings and ferrings to change the type of metal they could use?

    Roshar's Sun

    I was running calculations on Roshar's orbit, and the mass and class of it's sun. I used a different way to get the data, the results are here:
  13. How many Discord chat servers does this make? IIRC there also a couple of older servers.
  14. When it comes to fetish fuel, Kandra are probably your best bet (I'll leaving thinking up stuff to you guys, because forum rules). Also, you could use unsealed copperminds and compounding to create some really interesting experiences .
  15. @Quiver, can you tell me where in book one prof seemingly died in that case, because I can't remember it.
  16. Maybe they did rule the countries, but did it from the shadows. Ruling a country directly makes other magic users focus on you, especially if you did some morally questionable stuff to take power, or suppress the peasants. You could just as easily take control of some puppet rulers. If they peasants decide to rise up because of the poor living conditions, they'll kill you puppet ruler, but you can just start over with the next one. Take care with how you do it and the other magic users will never do anything against you, making it a much more attractive option. If most countries had these shadow rulers, it would also make sense as to why they never reveal the masquerade, as it could cause the peasants of their own country to notice them. After a couple of centuries, it is common sense among magic users that anyone who tries to break the masquerade gets assassinated by their fellow magic users. Skip forward to modern times, and this has resulted in special organizations that enforce this, and as their moral standards progressed, these organizations basically become the magic law enforcement.
  17. As long as there are intro threads, there will be abominations people trying to sell cookies.
  18. But bad references are the best kind of humor...
  19. In case of Secret History, I would wait until you've read Bands of Mourning, as Secret History contains spoilers for it.
  20. Welcome, out of interest, which programming language do you prefer?
  21. "Thanks", says Kenod, "I like honey".
  22. Should I start running?
  23. "Thank you", Kenod accepts the tea. "Is it English tea? As I normally find it to be too bitter."
  24. "First of all, I like tea", Kenod says. "Second of all, is mind reading really that surprising?"
