It should be mentioned that Chromium could likely be used to burn a Surgebinders Stormlight stores out of existence. Particularly if they're a 'master of their craft' Now aside from the obvious use of Atium all metals would include Lerasium. And you said as much as they need. So not only could they use Lerasiums* unknown other abilities, they could just keep burning it to make them insanely strong as an Allomancer. Then they could emulate TLRs example and just rip all the metal out of peoples bodies.

Alendi was both Hemalurgically spiked and a Seeker, both still existed prior to Rashek using the well.

"The time is 11:49! THE TIME IS 11:49!!!!!!!!!!!"

That depends if a certain Necromancer then reanimated the chop into a terrifying, terrifying lamb or if it stayed dead
-
MV then proceeded to cuddle up to the lamb herself and decided it was a way better boyfriend than Backtrack.
-
Metronome is indeed deathly afraid of lambs.
-
It was somewhat obvious, if I point it out it's not very likely anyone won't get it It's in his 'Day in the life of Metronome' post though. Although I don't think anyone even picked up on it first time through.
-
His canonical weakness however is probably in both of those places
-
Well they can do that with Allomancer spikes too, my point was just that I don't think they have trouble finding enough Mistings for a new Inquisitor, that wouldn't be the factor that's limiting them.
-
I think I may have actually dropped a really big hint at what Metronomes weakness is at some point.
-
It's not instantaneouss plus against someone as invested as TLR it's not guaranteed to even be able to damage him on all three realms. And again this is assuming he can manage to even stab TLR in the first place. And that TLR doesn't simply burn Nightblood.
-
On Inquisitors compounding my speculation on the subject is that since the Inquisitors gained feruchemy through hemalurgy and since that limits their storing abilities that they'd be able to burn a metalmind for a charge perfectly fine, what they would not then be able to do though is to re-store that charge and take it out as needed. -
I seem to vaguely remember that we got a Bendalloy alloy quote at some point but I can't find it so that may just be me imagining things.
-
The amounts she was burning would be so small that she probably wouldn't even notice that she got sick from it.
-
It can also heal from Hemalurgy, it can definitely heal at the very least spiritual wounds too. So regular Shardblade? No problem. Nightblood? Potentially a problem but not a guarantee. And if you're wrong then you've basically just destroyed the entire cosmere because TLR now has Nightblood. Not sure that Vasher would take that bet.

I'm probably just thinking of Wax's speculation that it was her. You're still talking around 10x compounded speed for that (Maybe you could get away with something like 5x speed but against a marksman as skilled as Wax it'd be pretty risky), not as big a deal but still several hours of storage for maybe a minute or twos worth. Plus it would rely on you seeing every gun that was pointed at you to know when to use it and when not as well as which way to dodge. I mean coinshots are basically completely immune to bullets all the time unless someone uses Aluminium, way better than being able to dodge bullets that you see coming for a couple of minutes a day.
-
Bleeder is one of the best Kandra at changing forms, she could have approximated it pretty easily and I think it was explicitly mentioned that it was indeed her. Well to be able to actually dodge bullet they'd need to compound their speed to at least 50x normal, more likely 100x. Given that they can store maybe 20% at a time they need to be storing for 500 times as long as they tap, which is not even taking into account how much they'd be spending to actually compress it. So they'd get maybe a minute of bullet-time speed a day (And probably less, I wouldn't be surprised if it was closer to a few seconds) if they spent the entire rest of the day doing absolutely nothing but storing speed.
-
I don't know about dodging bullets, not without compounding. Move fast enough to avoid getting shot sure but not actually watching a bullet fly out of a gun and dodging it deliberately. And by stepping very carefully they'd be going easily 5x slower than at running pace if not more. Even just compounding to 5x your normal speed would burn through your metalminds pretty quickly, you'd need weeks of storage just for a couple minutes. Which is something I think people forget about Bleeder, she had weeks to store up Steel which she only ever used for a few seconds at a time, she probably didn't even get an hours worth of speed out of it. It may be strong but it's like gold, you need to use it at ridiculous rates to get much out of it. Being a couple times faster than a normal people will give you a bit of an edge but it's only when you're moving at 10x speeds or more that you're getting to the really invincible stages.
-
He was just speculating though wasn't he? I don't remember them doing bullet forensics or anything. I think steels only really that powerful now that they have guns, and now Iron and Steel have become much less useful (And are going to be even less useful in the next trilogy once Aluminium is no longer rare in the least) Well yeah you could tie Miles up but a regular Steelrunner (Who isn't compounding) can still be killed, just like anyone in a Bendalloy bubble can. It's just harder. (In fact arguable even harder against Sliders since they can buy as much Bendalloy as they need, theoretically someone could be in a Bendalloy bubble their entire life, Steelrunners still have to spend time storing) Caltrops would probably do a fair number on them too.

Shattered fragments of the power of Adonalsium.

On the subject of Zinc. As for the matters of friction and speeding up your gun, I thought of the gun thing at first too but this is a room filled with bodyguards, she easily could have just used three different guns that she stole. On the friction point I kinda assumed that was going to happen with steel, otherwise it would not be particularly useful so I guess I wasn't surprised when it happened, I kinda pictured it doing some wibbly-wobbly realmatics things to get away with that piece of trickery while still being an internal power.

I'm an aspiring indie game developer and I've got quite a bit of a programming background, I studied it at uni for a while and I've been coding since I was about 12. Now the problem comes in in my artistic side, 3D modelling is something I'm not terrible at since I've had a bit of practice at it but in terms of 2d art I haven't studied it since I was about 14 and even then I was both terrible at art and also incredibly uninterested. Now I'm steadily improving some of the basic skills in digital artwork (Using photoshop at the moment and slowly working stuff out with the help of some online tutorials) and trying to practice sketching (Though I'm just absolutely horrible at it, my dominant hand has an intermittent tremor which can make things difficult if it starts acting up) but finding progress to be pretty slow, which is frustrating since I usually pick things up pretty darn fast. Anyway I've seen plenty of really awesome artwork on the Shard so I figured I'd seek the advice of those more artistically inclined for any tips, suggestions, practice methods, tutorials, web series or basically whatever you think might possibly help.

I made some Knights Radiant themed signatures
Voidus replied to Infinite Citadel's topic in Creator's Corner
(Headline) The Knights radiant declares war! (Content) The Canadians have entered the race to win a multi-billion pound project to build up to six nuclear reactors. Conclusion: Urithiru is located in Canada. Also the KR are now developing nuclear technology, I'd like to see the Voidbringers try to beat that with their lousy Everstorm. -
Thanks! I'm trying not to have anyone being too deserving of a spot but that being said Necropathy definitely does. He's not pure evil and he's even going to be attempting to go the Steelheart route of having a city that is actually provided for but he's just completely amoral, he's willing to do anything to accomplish his goals and if that means going around threatening pregnant women and causing peoples bodies to continuously die and heal for weeks on end then so be it.
