Modal Seoul

Also, a Shardblade has more reach than a lightsaber, soooo RIP Luke.

Bayle here. Hoid knew the Shard Vessels personally. Tanavast even bought him a drink(probably a bacon smoothie) but the Survival Shard and Hoid might've been totes besties. Is he looking for him/her? Does Hoid want to make sure that he/she is safe from the onslaught? Perhaps the Shard with no planet (see article on Shards in Coppermind) is the one leading the 17th Shard. Hoid does have multiple goals. Is this one of them?

If he was lonely, then the Shard Vessels were being jerks when they Shattered him. Maintenence, you're needed on Yolen.

Rodel here. This is a short story that features Hoid. It takes place after Warbreaker. Feel free to comment. The Man with Bacon Kasta cried. Her mother had sent her out of the house, furious, because she was visiting a boy her mother had deemed, “not worthy”. But to Kasta, he was worthy. He was everything. Quenn was the most handsomest boy ever. Despondent, Kasta ran down an alley, intending to sob in a street corner until she felt comfortable enough to go home. She slumped down on a wall and sniffed. “Need some food?” The voice had come out of nowhere. Kasta looked up to see the strangest man she had ever seen. He had no shirt on, and one leg of his trousers was torn away at the thigh. He was quite well muscled, which made Kasta blush slightly. The man also had stark white hair, even though he looked as though he couldn’t be older than thirty. “Wh-what?” she stammered. The man snapped his fingers impatiently. “I’m offering you food,” he said. “You know, the stuff you gnaw on until it enters your bowels? Are you going to accept my generous offer or am I just going to have to throw it on the ground and piss on it?” His sudden crude remark made Kasta stifle a laugh. “Yes,” she replied, with more confidence now. “I would like some food.” The man grinned widely. “Good!” With that, he plopped down next to her and brought out a piece of meat with a flourish. “Presenting the best food in the cosmere….bacon!” he exclaimed joyously. Kasta giggled, accepting the meat. The man was undoubtedly odd, but he made her forget her problems. “What happened to you?” she asked, gesturing at his three-fourths of a pair of trousers. The man chuckled. “Well, you see,” he explained. “A very old friend of mine is looking for me, and he actually hired some poor fools to procure me. Luckily, I gave them the slip somewhere in Teod.” “Where’s that?” Kasta wondered. The man dismissed her question with a wave of his hand. “Never mind that now,” he scoffed. “Back to my intriguing story, I arrived here a week ago, and visited Hallandren. Now I’m up here.” He paused. “Does that explain it?” Kasta shook her head. “No,” she said. “What happened to your clothes?” “That’s also an intriguing story,” the man replied, blue eyes twinkling. “When I was in Hallandren, I impersonated a storyteller. Told a nice story to the Vessel and one of the Returned.” “Colors!” Kasta exclaimed, eyes wide with excitement. “You’ve seen Princess Siri?” The man rolled his eyes, exasperation obvious. “Yes, yes, I have, she’s doing fine,” he said, annoyed. “May I continue?” Kasta nodded, and he did. “Just yesterday I decided to go, but somebody saw me pull off my beard. Caused quite the ruckus.” Kasta looked at him intently. “How did you get here in one day?” she questioned. The man held up a finger, cutting her off as he chewed his bacon. Then he swallowed. “Pewter.” he answered cheerily. Kasta’s eyebrows furrowed, confused. “Pewter?” The man nodded vigorously. “It works miracles,” he said. “But it has some effects. Which is why I needed bacon.” He went back to his bacon, jaw lethargically moving up and down. Kasta looked down at the ground. It was nice to have someone to talk to. She ate some bacon, then turned to the man again. “What’s your name?” The man’s face contorted, as if she had asked a difficult question. “Now that’s difficult,” he declared. “I’ve been called many things. Gheas. Idiot. Person with the Sharp Nose. Lunu’anaki.” He paused, thoughts deep in the past. “For now, you can call me Hoid.” Kasta smiled and stood up. She curtseyed. “It’s nice to meet you, Hoid.” she said. Hoid nodded distractedly. “It’s nice to meet you too, whatever your name is,” he returned. “Forgive me if I don’t bow. I’m terribly informal.” Kasta smiled and exited the alley. She felt good enough to face her mother now. As she made her way down the streets of Bevalis, a large man stepped in front of her. Startled, she stepped back. The man grinned evilly. “Step down this alley, pretty girl.” Kasta shook her head, trembling. “I will do no such thing.” The man’s face darkened. He pulled out a knife, blade glinting the in the afternoon sun. “Do it now, or I’ll gut you.” he snarled. Kasta shrieked in fear, then tried to run, but the man caught her by the arm. He threw her roughly into the alleyway, ripping the left sleeve and shoulder of her dress. He pinned her arms down with his knees. “Stop squirming, or I’ll kill you,” he yelled. He leaned in closer, whispering in her ear. “We’re gonna play a game. I’ll be the God King. You be the Vessel.” Before, he could go on, a voice cut in. “You would be executed for blasphemy in a heartbeat down in Hallandren, dear fellow,” said Hoid. “I’m not one who would want to get rid of blasphemy, of course, but all the same.” The man gaped at Hoid, who winked slyly. The man growled angrily, pointing the knife at him, in the process letting one of Kasta’s arms go. In a flash, Kasta lifted her leg and struck her assailant in the face. The man crumpled. Hoid clapped enthusiastically. “Oh, bravo,” he said with approval. “You would give the Ascendant Warrior a run for her boxings.” He helped Kasta up. “Let’s get you home.” said Hoid. ***** When Kasta’s mother saw her daughter enter the house with a shirtless man, her face went as white as the Royal Locks. But, as they explained, she calmed down enough to stop gasping. “I owe you my thanks,” she told Hoid. “What can I do for you?” Hoid shrugged, adopting an innocent look. “A shirt, a new pair of trousers, and some bacon,” he said. “Then I will depart.” Some minutes later, Hoid had been given the items he requested. As he exited the house, Kasta stopped him and caught him in an embrace. When she finally detached, Hoid looked astonished, grin now more of a grimace. “Um, ah, I must be going,” he stuttered. “I shouldn’t stay long in this part of the Realm. Edgli gets touchy.” He turned and began to saunter his way down the path. “Good-bye!” Kasta cried. Without looking back, Hoid waved farewell. ***** Some years later, before her children went to bed, Kasta would tell them of an eccentric man who talked of gods and royalty as if they were little infants. An enigma….who adored bacon.

Shardplate is Stormlight, in a sense. When you read WoK and WoR, it says that Shardplate leaks Stormlight when damaged. But I think Shardplate works a bit like the spheres they use for currency, not actual Stormlight.

The animation to this game is beautiful. It's definitely one of the best Zelda games, besides Ocarina of Time and the CDI ones. I just found the Master Sword!

Nice job. This is one of the best theories I've seen, and I once grew a garden for some keenspren.

Szeth will succumb to Nightblood and die. Adolin will be found as the murderer of Sadeas and be executed, then Shallan will marry Sebarial. Lopen will become Cultivation's champion. Lift will use her Shardfork to slay a Marabethian greatshell. Wit will tell everything to Jasnah.

I believe that Autonomy has a big part in the system. Investiture can't be channeled in large forms on Taldain anyway. The Daysiders have that huge star shining down, while the Darksiders have a white dwarf, and are unable to do anything with Investiture. But they do have technological advances over Dayside. I think since Kenton is a result between a person from Darkside and Praxton(Lord Mastrell) it hinders him and at the same time, gives him that ability to use Investiture. The word autonomy means self-governing, which explains her isolation, but that doesn't mean she can't control the way Investiture is represented.

The ranks are(from lowest to highest): Underfen, fen, diemfen, under-lesstrell, lesstrell, under-mastrell, and mastrell. Just to clarify.

Also, I don't think it would look good if the Taishin had a lord who looks like the result from an encounter between the Mummy and Bizarro. They need that public image, man!

Don't forget the fact that she'll need some pancakes as well.

Hey! Rodel here. I told you guys I was going to rank the X-Men movies soon. (See Rank the MCU). But, with no delaying, let's get to it! Feel free to rank them as well! 10. X-Men Origins: Wolverine 9. X-Men: The Last Stand 8. The Wolverine 7. X-Men 6. X-Men: Apocalypse 5. X-Men: First Class 4. Deadpool 3. X-Men: Days of Future Past 2. X2 1. Logan

When you ace a test and yell, "Praise Lord Jaddeth! He hath given me the power to vanquish diseases and curses!"

You guys need to all ask Endowment about this.

Hurt Shadows of Self, heal Warbreaker 6. The Hero of Ages--21 8. Shadows of Self--12 13. The Way of Kings--12 15. Edgedancer--23 16. Warbreaker--17 0

Actually, Cognitive Shadows technically are connected to a body, because they are formed after someone on Threnody dies. But just a remnant, if that makes sense. Also, @Palladia while it may seem that way with Preservation as well(being a Shadow), he is not, because having the Shard allows him to keep that connection with his physical body. But you are correct when you say it's only part of him. At the end of SH, he is so weak, he can't even be everywhere at the same time. Good job! Have an upvote!

Rodel here! Here's our picks for a movie cast for Elantris and Emperor's Soul.

Rodel here. I think the reason why it's not called "Nightside" is because it's not truly night, as said above. Secondly, not to be racist, but on Darkside people tend to be darker skinned, vice versa on Dayside. Finally, I believe it may have something to do with the amount of Investiture on Dayside. In White Sand, the Daysiders call Praxton's family tainted because he married a woman from Darkside. People born in Darkside can't draw power like Mastrells can. And even Sand Masters can draw it in small amounts Autonomy, the Shard, has a part too, according to me. Two stars on different sides, maybe controlling the way Investiture can be used. Also, Darkside has some technological advantage over Dayside. Kenton never heard of a gun until Baon used one to blow a Kertzian's face off. The word autonomy means self-governing, shown through Bavadin's isolation policy, but that doesn't mean she can't control the people. Food for thought.

Better read the Rithmatist and Arcanum Unbounded. Good luck out here!

You get Inspector Gadget! *inserts wombat*

Just fixed it.

That's true. But they had to exist at one point, or Twinborn wouldn't be alive.

That is correct. In Era 2, the Terris are wary of the outside world. They try to keep it pure, but that hasn't been doing well, evident in Wax, Wayne, Miles, an other Twinborn. So true Feruchemists do exist, but basically live in hiding, which is why not many appear in the books.
