Turos

Ooops! That's my cue to hide!

Totteluva, spoiler alert: it's really good.

There must be Mistborn fans in Canada or something. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=5&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwi3mqHQtPvJAhXE4CYKHe62DcgQFggyMAQ&url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FBoxing_Day&usg=AFQjCNHZBrKQMkzCruY6GoAIyoDBTszdQQ&sig2=jxrbF94FYov_9ut35oyVFw

Free boxings for everyone! Don't let those filthy Lurchers steal yours.

How do his fingers fold that far?! I must learn this secret.

Turos stared down the Knight Radiant, who returned his gazed. He recognized that massive black and red blade. "You just had to show up here, didn't you." Turos muttered. Rend nodded. "You could say that. Obedience, after." "Are we really going to do this?" Rend smirked, drawing the shardblade out of the concrete and hefting it over his shoulder. "That's your call, traitor. Here and now or there and then. I'll let you decide. It's going to happen either way, but I let you choose whether this city suffers casualties in the process." Turos spat. "Hugh, get out here already." A voice yelped from a nearby window. Sounds of muffled footsteps were followed by the door of an office building opening. A fat man trudge out quickly, his suit buttons threatening to pop off with each hurried step. He visibly lost at least two hundred pounds as he approached Turos. "How did you know it was me?" Hugh asked breathlessly. "I went through shards know how much trouble to perfect my disguise, and it didn't even matter, did it?" Turos nodded at the dustbringer. "We can talk later. Now we need to deal with priorities." Hugh sniffed. "I'll miss these Jindoeese buffets. Nobody else has quite the right spice in their cuisine." "You'll get over it. Now get us out of here." The two of them approached Rend, who frowned. "Too bad. This city could use some shaking up." A thin, silvery shardblade formed in Hugh's outstretched hand. "It has been too long since I have said the words." He raised it and pointed it to the side. "I will endure all opposition. I will create a better tomorrow." His eyes glowed with violet light as he breathed in colored mist that flowed from one of his pockets. With both hands, he gripped the shardblade and carved a large circle in the air. Streams of light followed the motion of the blade and a portal formed within. Rend motioned for Turos and Hugh to enter first. After they went through, he turned and looked at the fallen indivudual he had attacked at first. "You're safe. This time." He turned and entered and the portal collapsed.

Glad to see this RP is back up and running! Unfortunately for me, I have to resign. I am putting most of my attentions into my work right now, probably for another year. Good luck! Anyone is free to kill off or inherit my characters! Or I can write a random explosion and send them to their pyrotechnic dooms

You're welcome to join, even later, as long as we still have things left to create, which we do. It's been a slow crawl recently on my end as I'm now working two jobs. The number of available powers in the game has been streamlined as has the plot. I've also recently reorganized our work submission process and task scheduling. There is a big need for level designers, specifically those skilled in 3d modeling of landscapes, buildings and props. For those who have an interest in learning, I suggest the free program, Blender. We have a nice number of music tracks and a rockbud animation recently Other free programs: Inkscape (vector art, using editable lines) The GIMP (Photoshop-like image editor)

I use the GIMP for my tiny animations and export them as an animated .gif The large ones I use Inkscape, port to GIMP, then port to Spriter Pro. I'm not familiar with Apple at all. Sorry :/ Good luck to you, though. Yep! Unless they are integrated into the website, just use that trick.

Dalinar took Shallan out onto the plains because she has discovered the plains are symmetrical on four axes and he wanted her to determine where the Parshendi would be located based on her figuring more of the pattern out. The closer they came to the center, the nearer the mirroring occured.

Six words. It actually works well.

If only Cook was an Unkalaki. "Air-sick low-orbiters..."

To be or not to be? Wait........ what was the question again?

The question I asked got a very clear answer, but the bit on the end is not quite something I understand. I'll have to ask him about that one. Here ya go.

Nice modeling!

Man... I was cheering for Bob...

My feelings are that smokestone is the odd one out due to the same reason each gem has a certain value. Why did Jasnah turn the fallen stone into smoke? it may have been a valuable gemstone for that size, but it was the cheapest of the three, perhaps, and less painful to lose if it had cracked. Who needs smoke? What value can you derive from it? If that is the attitude, why base your coin on it? The only fault with this theory is if the gases that can be soulcast include useful gases. Nothing in the books makes me aware of machinery that would benefit from even those, however, and it may be likely that only surgebinders who can soulcast would ever be able to make anything more specific than smoke. If you were trapped in a cavein or fallen debris, would you value sapphire air? Definitely. And we have seen how useful it is to soulcast stone, expecially if its marble (hmm, there goes my theory of specifics). Smokestone is the least profitable in the current stage of technology and unworthy of currency.

I guess it wasn't dialogue. My bad. Too bad it doesn't say which is not included. You matchups make sense, too. I kinda thought of 1 and 2 as the gas forms of 6 and 7. 6 is basically water-based liquids, at least it seems that way. 7 is oils. 1 is evaporated from 6 and 2 is burned up from 7, other than fog. That one should probably be smog to fit better. Meh. I wonder what would be used to create mold, mushrooms (if they have them) and other bacteria mass, since they belong to neither the plant nor the animal kingdoms.

I've been looking over the Ten Essences and the values of different spheres based on the gemstones within. Emerald is the most valuable because it is used to soulcast things into food. After looking at the chart of the essences, emerald is tied to plants. Plants are food. What about flangria, the soulcast 'mystery meat'? It doesn't make sense that plants and meat go together with emeralds when there is a perfectly well-suited gemstone for soulcasting flangria. Heliodor is associated with meat. My theory is that heliodor is used for that purpose and that the value of heliodor is probably two or three ranks below that of emerald currency. It doesn't sound like flangria is that appealing to characters in the books, sans herdazians and Sigzil, but it is still food and can mix things up in a warcamp. Peter Alhstrom has been cited for explaining that there are five ranks of sphere currency. Shallan is cited for saying that nine of the ten gemstones are used for currency. Thus, some gems share value with others. I imagine heliodor is equal in value with ruby spheres (rank 3), or possibly as high as sapphire (rank2). Sources: my gut. Edit: As a side note: have you ever noticed how the essences are listed? 1 - Sapphire(soft blue) - Translucent gas, air 2 - Smokestone(glassy black) - Opaque gas, smoke, fog 3 - Ruby(red) - Fire 4 - Diamond(clear, white) - Quartz, glass, crystal 5 - Emerald(green) - Wood, plants, moss 6 - Garnet(deep violet) - Blood, all non-oil liquid 7 - Zircon(pale blue) - All oils 8 - Amethyst(soft violet) - Metal 9 - Topaz(tan) - Rock and Stone 10 - Heliodor(yellow) - Meat, flesh 1 and 6 are similar. Same for 2 and 7, 4 and 9, and 5 and 10. The latter seem to be more human/creature-related or more solid.

That actually sounds really cool, your majesty. Investiture-powered lasers. Pew pew poof!

*Cook wonders if haze organs are good for making a mean haggis with a halucinatory kick.*

Ah cool. Ok, I'll post.

Soulcast his skeleton into metal and use it as spikes.

I'll play the cook. He's only known as 'The Cook' or 'Cook'. He doesn't talk at all. He does listen, though. He's very good at listening. He's a top-of-the-line master chef whose life's ambition was shattered by the introduction of the replicator. Now he mostly just programs in new recipes and washes dishes, even though he doesn't need to. If he catches you going to deposit your dishes in the dematerializer, he will snatch them away from you with a glare and run away into the kitchen, which is more of a closet, and wash them, then sigh depressively and deposit the clean dishes into the dematerializer. He is human and has a monstrously large mustache, which he has let grow since he doesn't actually do any cooking whatsoever. If someone had a request for a homemade meal, he would probably have a heart attack. I'll also play his watch. Cook knows people don't wear watches anymore, but he already feels antiquated, so he wears one. It has a very enhanced articial intelligence. The best part is that it is programed specifically to know nothing about cooking. That boosts cook's morale, and the watch is very verbose on stating how little it knows about cooking. The watch serves one basic function: it tells you how pointless a watch is in space where relativity ruins the concept entirely since the watch isn't connected to any subspace clocks, or even to the ship. The watch does make comments on other topics, however, so things don't get too stale. The watch has developed a fascination for people's hand sizes.
