On the topic of Chromium stealing Destiny: I can't help but wonder if Destiny works in a similar way to how Ta'veren work in WoT. It kind of fits with what you guys were saying about some people having a higher "Destiny Quotient" (Lol) and would kind of fit with the sort of inspiration Brandon might have had for the ability. And being able to "Steal Destiny" might be like spiking Rand or Mat to gain their kind of powers, and gain the ability to sort of twist fate around you like they did.
Just spitballing, but it could also mean that if you somehow steal enough people's destiny, you could artifically turn yourself into a kind of Ta'veren. Or would that just try to pull you in a bunch of different directions at once?

Interesting to think about.
