I'm trying to make sense of this, but I have no idea what's going on. Is this like a role-play, forum post with an actual topic, or what? Please help.

Could it require a specific fabrial or one of the magic systems in Roshar? Or maybe it's like a Nahel bond, and the spren go willingly.

Brandon Sanderson-esque books
Assassin in Burgundy replied to Assassin in Burgundy's topic in Entertainment Discussion
I also tried the Malazan book of the Fallen but I also gave up. I am currently reading the long price quartet. I have heard that it gets much better after the first. Is that true? by the way, thank for the feedback. -

Ok, thanks for the feedback. I'll read those. -
Hello, I was just wondering if anyone knows any big fantasy epic books like Brandon's. I've already read GoT, LOTR, and Name of the Wind. Are their anymore out there like them? Thanks, and please respond with your favorite books.

Another Hoid Theory
Assassin in Burgundy replied to Darkness Ascendant's topic in Cosmere Discussion
Maybe Hoid has enough Breath to shut off his aging? That would be 2,000 Breaths. He already has at least 200 because in WoR he said "This is so much easier with perfect pitch," while playing for Kaladin in the dungeon, and I wouldn't put it past him to harvest/buy more Breaths.- 15 replies

D&D- Desolations and Dustbringers

Ok, thank you! I wasn't expecting a reply so fast. -
Gavilar's Black Sphere theories
Assassin in Burgundy replied to Assassin in Burgundy's topic in Stormlight Archive
Okay, this could be possibly true. I still think that the sphere is Midnight Essence blood or whatever, but according to the Coppermind, Midnight Essence was like the harbinger for the Desolations. Maybe if that sphere could return the Midnight Essence, then Gavilar thought that that would return the Desolations also. I'm still kind of making this up. But could this work? -
Never thought I'd choose a talking sword over an actual character, but Nightblood is awesome. Though Lightsong is pretty cool too. A god who didn't believe in his own religion is a great concept

You and four of your friends have been recruited to infiltrate the Unmade fortress somewhere in Natanatan. You will start in Urithuru and attempt to find the fortress. Once/if you do, you will need to fight your way into it and find the Unmade Nergoual. You will need to fight your way through Voidbringers, Midnight essence, and more to reach the fortress and stop the Unmade from launching an army to attack Urithuru and destroy the Radiants. Do not fail me. Desolations and Dustbringers is fairly simple. Fro those who have played D&D or other roleplaying games, you will find this easy. I've played it a ton with my friends, so I've had a lot of practice dungeon mastering. Basically it's D&D on Roshar but I basically describe stuff as we go along, without a module. To fight something, I'll judge what the chances are and IRL, roll a 20 sided die. If it's at or above the number I was using, you hit. For this version, you will be fledgling Radiants, similar to Kaladin in the end of WoK. You will not have Shardblades for this campaign, but you'll still be as BA as Kaladin. I can record what health and how much Stormlight you have left, (Stormlight quotient, or SQ), but I can send a word document for a character sheet if you also want to keep track. All you have to do is come up with responses to my scenarios and questions. For example: Me: You leave Urithuru with the honor of kings. Ahead stretches out the twisted wilds of Natanatan. You have been told to go south, and a path stretches before you. What do you do? Player1: We follow the path, but keep our weapons out and armor on in case we run into enemies. are we on foot or on horse? Me: You Each have a Ryshadium. Player1: OK, good. We begin to follow the trail. And so on and so on. The game is very simple and we can just post our actions on the forum, hassle free. Character making: The first five people can play. I'm sorry that I can't take more, but after that it gets too complicated to keep track of the players. However, you are welcome to start games of your own under a different topic once this five-player limit is reached. And I will make more campaigns after this one. H.P= Health Tf2= closest Tf2 character to them. Choose your Order. You will be able to use their surges, which I will list. Windrunner- Juggernauts, good for taking damage and dealing out even more. H.P: 30. Tf2: Heavy. Surges are basic, full, and reverse lashings. Lightweavers- Wizards/support. Can join part in combat, but more helpful using soul casting and light weaving as distractions. H.P: 25. Tf2: Engineer. Surges are Soulcasting and Lightweaving. Dustbringers- Ranged, set stuff on fire and turn off friction. H.P: 20. Tf2: Sniper. Surges are fire-throwing and friction manipulation. Edgedancers- Healers, move and strike fast, then retreat. H.P: 20. Tf2: Medic/Scout Sorry I can't do more, but I felt like this would be enough. If you want, you can share your characters backstory, nationality, name, spren, etc. Remember, the first five responders can play, so reply fast. More details will come out when you ask them, and you can buy equipment and stuff right before we start the mission Have fun!

People you wouldn't want to meet in a dark alley
Assassin in Burgundy replied to Voidus's topic in The Alleyverse
I've already accepted the Theoryweaver. Is that bad? -
I tried to grab some Preservation but I Mist. I thought about being an Inquisitor. I didn't see the point. What do you call a fat, tyrannical king? Lard Ruler When shall I make another bad Mistborn joke? Ten...Soon. (I should be pun-ished. I'm very sorry)
-
I'll definitely do this. I haven't seen the show, but I'm currently reading a Clash of Kings. Sounds fun!

If I can still play, I'd like to be burgundy (didn't see that comin) next to Shinovar, maybe Aimia. Also, will there be an online map or list of actions? P.S. Cloudjumper- since you're near Shinovar, team? I'll eat your cookies.

Facepalm-worthy Moments during Readings
Assassin in Burgundy replied to Patrick Star's topic in Stormlight Archive
It starts exactly on pg 522 according to Reddit. You might not have recognized it because Hoid's name was never truly used. -
I've always wondered about the black sphere that Gavilar gave to Szeth. And unfortunately, the Coppermind has almost nothing on it. So without further ado, here are my theories that have no reliable truth and are probably not true. #1. Shadesmar Sphere. My first most likely untrue theory is that the black sphere is the "sprensphere" of Odium. In Shadesmar, each one of the spheres refer to something back in the physical realm, (I think). I believe Gavilar was somehow able to transport back a sphere from Shadesmar, and this sphere was of Odium, another Shard or something else important that my illogical mind cannot fathom. #2. Voidbringer Stormlight. This is probably the most likely to be true, but still, that chance is slim. As pointed out to me by @Pathfinder, Voidbringers are filled with Investiture. For those who don't know what that is, go here ---> http://coppermind.net/wiki/Investiture. Stormlight is a type of Investiture, and it fills spheres. According to Dalinar's flashbacks, Voidbringers/Midnight Essence (are they similar/the same?) bled black smoke, similar to Stormlight. What Gavilar may have done is fill a dun sphere not with Stormlight, but with Voidlight. (Made-up term). He may have needed this for returning the desolations for some unknown reason. So, which one of these is more likely to be true? Or, even better, and post your, more likely correct, theories. Also... Here is a Sanderson Interragation Session about Gavilar's Black sphere below. I couldn't really make heads or tails of it. QUESTION As far as I can tell, in The Stormlight Archive, we have seen three different lights: the stormlight, the amberlight in the flashbacks, and the dark light in the stone. Do those correspond to the three Shards? BRANDON SANDERSON No, the amberlight is more a function of...it's no different than the stormlight. QUESTION So, you see that in a storm? Like when gems gather that in the storm? BRANDON SANDERSON That amberlight is more related to... so, no... you are not seeing something other than stormlight. That is like saying that stormlight in a topaz is a different color than stormlight in a sapphire. It's not different colors; you're just seeing it filtered through something. The dark light of the, um, the gemstone that Szeth was given is indeed something different and distinct. QUESTION Voooiidlight? BRANDON SANDERSON Yes, it is related to a different shard. How about that?

Nightwatcher Boon/Bane (Game)
Assassin in Burgundy replied to killersquirrel59's topic in Forum Games & Random Stuff
Granted. The pet baby seal is so cute that all you can do is spend time with it. It eventually waddles back to the ocean. You follow and almost drown. I wish for a flying cow covered in ketchup packets. (Make of that what you will).
