Brandon has already stated that Odium's goal is to become the only Shard, I see that as a personal goal of his and an effect of how his own personality is filtering the Shards Intent. This isn't against his Intent, just taking a much longer view of it. And I only meant he wanted to destroy the Shards, not people, although if he did, he like other Shards could presumably just make more.

The Enhancement Metals are suspiciously boring
Voidus replied to Phantom Monstrosity's topic in Mistborn
Yeah back when we didn't know what they did and some people guessed that they'd just enhance/destroy other people's metals, Peter pointed out what you have, that that's not how the other metals work but as Observer said Brandon thought it was just too cool an idea to pass up. -
Well he wants to destroy all the other Shards so I don't think he wants them to hate I just meant that maybe he's ignoring a short-term goal of increasing hatred on one world in order to pursue his longer term goal of becoming the only Shard, at which point he could influence the universe as he wished.
-
Although he didn't kill everyone on Sel when he visited (Which should have been easy once he killed Aona and Skai), so maybe there is something to it, perhaps the Desolations are more about harming other Shards somehow, we know that the Oathpacts bound him in some manner so perhaps he couldn't destroy all of the Rosharian Shards without the desolations.
-
Well your eyes can move pretty darn quickly, you could easily read up to probably 10x faster without your eyes movement speed being a problem.
-
And don't forget the last of Dalinar's vision, Odium wants there to be no people at all, which is hardly conducive to increasing the amount of hate in the world.
-
I always thought it'd make a brilliant location for Shinovar if they ever made a SA movie.
-
Hey NZ is more than that, it's the country where the LOTR films were made, which is far more epic.
-
Someone's already done a really amazing gravity warping game, so a SA game could be really great too.
-
Ah alright, I thought it was probably better to live an approximate date then none, so I left it in but put a disputed tag on it. Unless anyone thinks we should just leave it until we find exact dates?
-
Oh Voidbringer, we don't want to be Seon that! Why can't you just have a Dawn-Shard instead so we don't have to hear about it? But seriously guys, can we really a Fjordell these puns? We might scare some potential 17th Sharders off, we might psychologically Skaa them with all these.
-
That's 1024 years (It's a multiple of 16), but yeah I always figured that as well.
-
I like this theory, but mostly just because it supports my own theory that Shallan's father also had Soulcasting abilities and his Soulcaster was a fake as well.
-
Could he be the holder of the Shard which 'just wants to hide and survive'?
-
Please do James, or you'll Ruin all of the books for us. And what about those who come here as Seekers of Brandons good books? What are they going to think of our Cultivation of his image? We should Honor his books and show them some Devotion, instead of making such lame jokes. But anyway it's early here so maybe I'm not thinking straight, ah well gotta rise, you know 'up and Ati-um'.
-
You can try, but your punshment will consist of Three Lashings.
-
There are Sanderson related puns now? I must have Mist that.
-
No one else came even close to TLR strength, despite being Savants, although Spook probably came close with his Tin, the Well didn't make Vin any stronger so he'd need to actively use it's power to do that which seems unlikely given he only had a limited amount of time to use it and so much to do.
-
Well we mostly talk about the mechanics of the cosmere, interesting pieces of information, magic systems, etc. most of the time, but I think if you asked most of us would probably be quite big fans of Vin and Elend, although I do agree that usually there'd be a bigger fanbase of it, someone should get started organising that.
-
Odium managed to Splinter two other Shards as well, it's assumed that he's stronger somehow than the others (Probably through less investiture in others)
-
Well I've finally finished citing everything, took a few months but we got there in the end. One reformatted and cited Chronology. Does anyone know where those dates for Nightblood and Emperor's soul came from? I couldn't find anything at all for those.
-
Just found this video http://www.mediabistro.com/galleycat/brandon-sanderson-records-his-writing-process_b64488 of Brandon showing some of his pre-writting for a Stormlight 2 interlude, time to go over every word that's visible to see if we can pick anything out.

Your Favorite High Fantasy Books
Voidus replied to ProfessorMLyon's topic in Entertainment Discussion
Really? I really didn't like the end of the Assassin's trilogy, although I haven't read the Tawny man so if it picks up there then I might be able to like it again, which I really did up until the very end. -
All the cosmere topics I could find:

Haha, I was born in Sydney, we lived there for a few years before moving. and upvotes for supporting football.
