Maybe the creation of his world, his inspirations and that... On the topic, does anyone know where I can find clear summaries for each book? It gives me a headache trying to remember all the sub-sub-sub-sub-characters which become the saviours of the world by book 10

You know windings? The font? Well, I remebered it when reading mistborn, and I thought Wow, let's make a font like that! Then, the Idea fell into disrepair for about a year, until today... The Allomantic Font!! Here's the file: Allomancy-Regular.ttf Now, you can be a mistborn nerd when you write as well!!

Devising a Dust-Powered Magic System
NamelessThirteenth replied to NamelessThirteenth's topic in Creator's Corner
Hmmm...could the dust perhaps be used in a way to heighten combat ability? I came up with two(ish) methods: they burn the dust, and then this "dustsmoke" can be bent into illusions. The level of illusions can increase, from images to ilusions that cause actual sensations (the dust enters the nose and pores, providing sensations) They cause the dust to explode - this has limitations though. The distance between the Mage and his Dust, however, cannot be more than a couple of centimetres. Due to this, they wear thick leather gloves and hold the dust in them, then slap the dust into faces and blow it up. the gloves are built with a couple of pockets for dust storage They put the dust in someone's water or food, allow it to course through their body. Then, they can explode the poisoned individual by touching their skin. Size of explosion depends on the amount of dust, and dust is obviouslt shat out after 3 days. A good, weak mage knows when to strike, so that the dust is in a vital area. What do you think? -
What IS NaNoWriMo? I keep hearing about it...but I dn't know what the hell it is!! Is it writing? If so, I'm interested

This is exactly what it sounds like. We all have those ideas in our heads - it would be cool if I could __________, what if he could ___________ - you know? So what if anybody could submit his idea to a central thread, and after a week or something, we can bundle all these cool ideas together into a magic system to end all magic systems? And then we put this magic system up on the therad, or we make a world to go with it, or leave it for anyone to use and edit it? This is the thread. Submit your magic system ideas , and comment on other's. Please (for ease of use) start a magic system suggestion with "It would be cool/nice/awesome if..." Let us weave some magic!

Devising a Dust-Powered Magic System
NamelessThirteenth replied to NamelessThirteenth's topic in Creator's Corner
I can get behind this...good idea (http://i.imgur.com/3YfOz4J.gif) This is also pretty cool, but it kinda starts entering the whole golem thingy, which I like, but I think may be hard to pull off without sounding cliche. Even so, this may form only one "Branch" of the power. Any more bright ideas? -
So, there's been this concept floating around in the dark corridors of my mind, and it goes like this... The magic is powered by the powdered dust of a certain rock. This dust - Lifedust - is used by mages in different ways. The esscence of it is that they create a temporary bond between them and the Dust, allowing them to influence it in certain ways. This connection is temporary, and depends on the strength of the Dustmage, the fineness of the powder and the distance between them (the closer the better). The problem I'm having trouble with is figuring out the power profiles: what can the Dustmages do with the Dust? Are they divided into orders? Do the powers calssify into certain groups? This is why I've decided to take ideas from the Forumgoers - you - about these powers. I'll consider anything and everything, so please help me out

Holy sonuvab#&@h, this thread just blew! My god! So if ya'll wondering where I've been exactly (although I don't think you have - you all lack the equipment) it's because my internet connection has been blocking off the forum for ages now. But I'm back, and ready. With an IQ surpass you all... Although that's not too much. My left pinkie has more intelligence and sense in it than the lot of you combined - and that's why it knows not to challenge me

Wait can a Gold compounder like the Lord Ruler or Miles Hundredlives survive a shardblade? Do they have the power to regenerate their souls like they regenerate their body?

Hello fellow Sharders, I was browsing online and learnt about this new poison, so I thought I’d raise awareness for it here. It is known as DHMO. DHMO: · is also known as hydroxyl acid, and is the major component of acid rain. · contributes to the "greenhouse effect". · may cause severe burns. · contributes to the erosion of our natural landscape. · accelerates corrosion and rusting of many metals. · may cause electrical failures and decreased effectiveness of automobile brakes. · has been found in excised tumors of terminal cancer patients. Despite the danger, dihydrogen monoxide is often used: · as an industrial solvent and coolant. · in nuclear power plants. · in the production of styrofoam. · as a fire retardant. · in many forms of cruel animal research. · in the distribution of pesticides. Even after washing, produce remains contaminated by this chemical. · as an additive in certain "junk-foods" and other food products. dhmo = dihydrogen monoxide = water

Somebody make a Mistborn anime!!!
NamelessThirteenth replied to NamelessThirteenth's topic in Mistborn
I think that in my head mistborn and stormlight has always been an anime, because of the art style and the characters. Plus, the events wouldn't be full if they wreer made into a movie. Nothing against movies or anything, but... we can all agree that SA is more complex (or will be) than GoT right? Now imagine Game of Thrones as a movie, or two, or three... doesn't fit, does it? The only way for GoT to screen AND keep its complexity was a HBO series (Boss company BTW). So the best we can hope for is for Stormlight, which is even more complicated than GoT, to be made into a very long and expensive HBO series, or a long and much cheaper anime, with no limits in violence, gore or complexity. Now that I think about it, mistborn the original trilogy would be awesome as a HBO series. Imagine kit streaming on Netflix...*makes excited giggling* -
If I wanted to kill myself, I'd climb up your pride and jump down to your IQ. This applies for you all..

A Shard influences plots
NamelessThirteenth replied to NamelessThirteenth's topic in Cosmere Discussion
Hmm... This provokes thought. I did know that the shards invest in planets and their people, but I did not know that the fact that they influence the plots was a given. Rather enlightening -
I have had this theory for sometime, and now that I have finished all the Cosmere books I can now post this theory, as, in my eyes, it has not been yet disproven. The events on a planet are influenced by the Invested Shard Think about it: In Elantris (On Sel), the story is mainly about Shu-Dereth as it attempts to convert the citizens of Arelon and Teod, and bring them under Wyrn's control. The part about religion ties into Devotion and its nature, while the part about control is connected to Dominion. In Mistborn Era 1 (Scadrial) the story was, simplified greatly, about different factions warring. People like Elend were attempting to preserve humanity while people like the Lord Ruler wre attempting to destroy it. IN Era 2, it's all about how Ruin and Preservation work against each other in one body (the theory doesn't fit very well in Era 2, but I pit that down to the fact that Sazed holds both). In Warbreaker (Nalthis) the story was all about giving (Endowment), and this is something I noticed at the end. Everyone was handing out Breath, and giving it away. In Stormlight Archive (Roshar) it was all about cultivating the human race in a harmful environment, and the political system greatly showcases the honor of every one of the highprinces, and how Dalinar attempts to overcome their pride and honor.

Okay, I took time because I wanted to put myself in your shoes, to see how it feels. That and internet shutdown. Oh and Zennix, you've gained my respect, no matter how little it's worth. You are the ONLY person here that seems to actually have their wits about them (and me of course, but that goes unsaid). BTW, remember how I said I was gonna put points? I decided thats a complete waste of my time. None of you deserve any anyway

Finally part of 17th Shard
NamelessThirteenth replied to l_raspberries's topic in Introduce Yourself!
Hello, welcome, and beware. Do NOT eat the cookies that will be offered to you (I learn from my mistakes, like Hemalurgic Headshot) -
I was reading a thread on how all the shards find it natural to manifest themeselves as metal, and then I read Shadows for Silence. It hit me that maybe silver is of Ambition (because he stayed there for a time) or another shard, while the Shades are of Odium, or another shard. Any speculation?
-
So I think the best way to go about drafting theories for the Cosmere is to look at what Sanderson has been RAFOing. I think that if we all worked together, we could notice trends in what he keeps secret from us, and make theories from there. Problem: I haven't been to any convention or release of any sort because I live in Australia and he hasn't done anything there (yet). So everyone that has been RAFOed and remembers it please post it HERE. That way we can all crack the Cosmere together.

The shards threw a party, but Ati ruined it. The worst person to fight alongside is Leras, he has a high sense of self-preservation. Rayse is the most hated of all the Shards (look up the meaning of odium).

I call myself NamelessThirteenth because my name carries so much awesome reputation it would blow your mind to know them all. Your name, on the other hand, is so lowly anyone who knew it would immediately be the scum of the earth. And THAT'S why nobody talks to your mum anymore (I thought you might be wondering). Oh, and for the record, I really like how you don't have to put your real face as the profile picture. If you did, I'm certain the Sharders would have left a long time ago (and those are the survivors, I excluded those who died from disgust, those who are in Intensive care, and those who are traumatised).

Sorry was in the middle of this Fanfic but then I had to leave the computer. I will continue later. Sorry
