Steeldancer

Ok, two thoughts. First, i still think Adonalsium formed because investiture seeks sapience, especially if the Cosmere started with a big bang of some sort. It just makes more sense given that situation. Second, it is my theory that Felt is the hemalurgist that a few WoBs have referred to. A hemalurgist who goes around the Cosmere collecting stuff, who's not Hoid because he won't use Hemalurgy.

I don't think Adonalsium can be reformed. Referring to my theory, essentially I believe Adonalsium came about as a result of investiture being released by the Big Bang, and then formed as all investiture formed one, single mind. Thus, no human can become Adonalsium. They don't have an infinite mind. Plus, i don't think that kind of infinite mind can recurr again unless literally all investiture becomes free, which means no more life. Now, what Hoid is doing is definitely odd. He's collecting investitures. He tells stories. He connects himself to shards, despite the fact that we know he turned down a shard at the shattering. But, i don't think Adonalsium can be reforged.

1. I'm passing calculus again! 2. I asked a girl to Ball, she said yes!

Nalthis. It had quite the colorful cognitive realm. Steeldancer popped up out of Endowments perpendicularity, which was surrounded by the famous Tears of Edgli. Looking at the paper Eobard had given him, it seemed like all three individuals lived in Hallendren. He had actually never visited the Court of God's before. It should be an interesting trip. He popped a few steelminds into his mouth, and felt the familiar reserve of power appear in his stomach. Looking at his spren, he asked, "Is this right? I feel like I'm taking a bite out of something that is way too big for me. Powers like that... if others come and get them, where no natural investiture can replicate it, there will be no one to stop them." Phyl looked at him, her face of vines growing larger. "Listen." A reminder of an oath. "Perhaps I'll consult someone with Fortune. Perhaps they will be able to give me some guidance." And Steel burned steel, releasing the investiture spread through him, and he ran. Across the plains of Nalthis.

Not particularly. At this point in my SE career, i trust and believe no one. Including me.

Yeah, it seems like Autonomy hopped in right after I left.

...no I'm not. Darn. I forgot about the 2 actions thing. That's a little less freaky, but annoying that I could have picked up that bit of information if i had stayed.

...how... Ok what the heck? I worldhopped to scadrial last day, and nobody joined me. How in the world did Autonomy invest without me being aware? They had to create a doc for me, because I was the first one to show up. And I never had the chance to even become a shard. That's thoroughly confusing. Ok, yeah, i double checked the rules, autonomy had to be on scadrial, which only leaves the option that they just never commented on the world doc. Which is freaky. And really annoying. I thought I was all alone there.

...You know I just said I would do analysis. But, I'm sorry guys, I am just not feeling up to it. My brain is shot. I'm looking at posts and not reading anything at all. I think Pyromancer is a good choice. If you guys are right, good job noticing. I was bothered by the sheer luck of being survival twice. I mean, seriously, what would be the odds? So I think it makes sense as a cover, and then Survival would be fine with it, because they can be shielded from scrutiny. And now my head is already rejecting any more deep thinking. Sorry guys. I'll get in some thoughts and some RP tomorrow once I've slept and maybe that will help both my creativity and my analytic skills.

Ok, I just got back from my mentally exhausting shift at work, but I'll finally have enough time to do the analysis I've been promising but not delivering. Soon as I get my SS homework done. I will refrain from voting until I do that.

I think I assumed that if there was so much discussion about PMs, there would be more in play... which means I REALLY need to get around to taking some basic notes. And more RP.

I will second Rand. Trust groups, bad. Also, why does everyone have PMs when I haven't seen a single one? Me sad

Finished Obsidio, the last book of the Illuminae series. It was fantastic.

Steel stared at the man- Eobard- in shock. "You want me to awaken lightning," Steel said incredulously. "I'm not even sure that's possible." Eobard chuckled. "Normally, it isn't. After all, you have to catch it first." "Then why don't you go get it yourself?" Steel asked, trying to find a way out of this. "Sadly, I'm not connected enough to this universe. I don't have enough of a spirit-web to hold breath. Trust me, I've tried. The breath just refuses to pass to me, or any other investiture, as fascinating as it is. However, I'm sick of that. If the lightning Awakens, the Speed Force- which does exist to a degree here- will properly awaken, and will allow my Spiritual Aspect to come in greater harmony with this universe. Only you are fast enough to catch lightning, so I need you. If you won't, I've already discovered where your sister lives." Steel was instantly incensed. "If you so much as TOUCH my sister, I will-" Eobard waved his hands. "I won't need to even see her if you just go to Nalthis and meet with these three people. They should have collected enough breath by now, and they will pass it to you. Then, all you have to do is find a storm, and awaken the lightning. Simple enough. Then I'll leave you alone." Eobard proffered a piece of paper with three names and addresses on it. Steel hesitated. "Oh, and you have 5 days. You better get moving. You have all that Cognitive ground to cover..." Eobard laughed as Steel jumped onto the next peak over- Cultivation's perpendicularity. Time to find another spren ship to the edge of Roshar, and then run to Nalthis, and the perpendicularity of Endowment. Fantastic. Phyl vined her way up next to him, as he sat on a ship of Lightspren. "That man was scary," she said. "Indeed. What really scares me is what else his plan might do. It sounds simple enough, but I have this gut feeling that if I do as he says, things will go catastrophically wrong..." Steel looked out on the sea of beads, storing speed, preparing for an exciting couple of days ahead of him. He already knew he would need his speed. Best to prepare now.

... ok I totally missed that. I thought... I don't know what I made of that. Yes, that means he's not village. Yes, it's possible he's Khriss or Hoid, although I sort of doubt it. That would kind of ruin a faction and mess up the balance right off the bat, if he wasn't lying about Survival being corrupted from the beginning.

Never mind, it was Magestar. You remain Capless, Orlok. Um, I'm really just not sure what to make of Pyro. Part of the reason he sounds like me in my early games is that he posts a lot and is mildly confusing. That was where my suspicions came in. But if I'm going through possible scenarios, I'm thinking it's most likely that he's a very enthusiastic villager. If that playstyle was used by anyone else, i would suspect them of hiding something. Hm. Problem is, i don't really have any other suspicions. Also, Cultivation is boring. How about we kill Odiums vessel so I can actually remember to take an action and get Odium? As promised, i will get up some reads/analysis and some more RP later today.

Well. That was thoroughly confusing to read. Also, did I seriously read a post ever Orlok used all caps? I've never seen that before. Also, dang, Pyro sounds a lot like I think I did in my early games.

I can only be on for a few minutes, but I do want to mention something that's really really been irking me. I've said literally nothing useful, and because of that I'm not on anyone's radar. And that is the absolute anithesis of my usual playstyle. I keep looking at your reads and not seeing my name and being strangely offended it's my own fault becuase I'm focusing more on RP this game. But to assauge my conscience, I'll try and do some actual analysis tomorrow. Also, the only person who I'm even slightly suspicious of is Pyromancer , but I don't particularly want him lynched as he's a first time player. But I don't really have anything else at the moment.

Yeah if I were to guess, I think Teft bonded his spren sometime during WoR.

I would like Elbereth to explain herself. Although honestly I don't have any reads yet. If she doesn't explain herself, I think voting on her would be a good idea.

Note- liberties with the cosmere are being taken in my RP. There is no speedforce in the cosmere, and I wouldn't recommend trying to awaken lightning.

Steeldancer zoomed after the man, who was obviously heading back towards the horneater peaks. Unfortunately, Steel was running out of steel. He had filled a lot of metalminds before coming to Roshar, but running such a long distance had burned through most of his reserves. He would be forced to only tap, not burn if he ran out of the small steelminds he used for the purpose. Well, he always had the option of just frictioning his way up. So he stopped burning steel, and simply drifted on the momentum he already had. Sometimes he was quite inefficient with his metalmind usage. The man was way ahead of him, but the lightning he gave off- how DID he do that, anyway?- gave Steel something to follow. Across countries the man ran, and he danced. All the way to the horneater peaks. At which point he had also drained several spare metalminds for getting up the mountain, and for turning into stormlight for Abrasion. He really needed to restock. Finally, the man stopped, a few peaks over from the perpendicularity. "My name is Eobard, Eobard Thawne. And I need you to Awaken the lightning."

I think we should lynch someone who is genuinely suspicious. I don't really have any suspicions, but that's because I haven't really taken a good look at any posts yet.

As for why I wanted to be Odium, take a look at LG41. As far as I am aware, I'm the only player who has ever pulled off a SK win. I wanted to make that twice I'll have more RP and a vote on something later

DANG IT I FORGOT TO TAKE AN ACTION. GAHHHHHHH. No Odium for me Or do I
