Granted, but you are relocated to the stone age! Good luck finding any metal to use I wish for Reese's Pieces for all mankind! -

*stops mating* Awwwwww! Not even a little bit? Welcome to the Shard! I must say, it was bold of you to join us. Who's your favourite Sanderson character?
-
Welcome to the Shard! (Don't give away your Breath to Niteshado ). Which of Brandon's books is your favourite?
-
Welcome sule! Niteshado stole my usual questions (that's not the only thing he's trying to steal ) so I'll ask you why do you love baby corn?
-
Welcome! And happy Cpt. Picard Day! (one week in advance ) If Kelsier was in the Starfleet, what colour shirt do you think he would he wear?
-
The mimes grabbed the rock and tried to use it to patch one of the holes.

I know the feeling! There's just so many great characters. I think right now my favourite is Kelsier. I love how if he'd been in a different circumstance he could have become a villain, but he ended up being a great hero instead (plus he's super quotable!).

Like moths to a flame, the repairers of the 4th wall descended on the breach. The mimes placed a large poster over the hole to cover it up while they waited for the cement truck to arrive

I have a tough time choosing. They're all good for different reasons. Mistborn has the best magic system, Elantris goes crazy with the plot twists, Reckoners has a Canadian guy in it, SA has crabs, and who can forget Warbreaker with the mercenary humour? If I had to choose one, I think I'd go with The Alloy of Law. I love the Wax and Wayne books, they're fantastic in every way!

Welcome! If you had a Jurassic park style island with cosmere creatures instead of dinosaurs, what's something you'd put in it?

It was too dark to see well. Thick clouds hung overhead, blocking all the afternoon sunlight. Mace frowned, contemplating how best to continue his work. He kept missing the nails he tried to strike. Giving up in disgust, he decided that repairing the porch could be left for another time. As he slowly rose to his feet, his legs spasmed in agony. He’d been pushing himself too hard to store health, he knew that. But he also knew that he’d need it eventually, so he persisted, constantly skimming it and other attributes. When he got to his feet, he took a moment to admire the building in front of him. A single level above ground, it sprawled out to either side of him. The ranch had been inherited from his grandfather, and had been in the family for generations. He hadn’t spent much time at it recently, and it showed. Some of the façade was chipped, the paint had seen better days, and the garden had long since been overtaken by an invasive species of plant his father had brought home from Roshar. But it didn’t matter. Even if the dozens of rooms inside were in shoddy condition, they could still be used if needed. All that was needed was a little dusting and the repair of a few floorboards. Not that he planned to spend much time in the house anyway. The ranch was mostly just for show. Generations ago there had been a thriving giraffe population to care for, but since then the animals had dwindled away. No one had lived in the building for years. The real fun was all underground these days. Mace dusted himself off and turned away from the building. Tapping his tin metalmind he spared a glance to the south. Downhill, a couple of kilometers away, lay a ghost town. A suspicious fire had killed most of the residents, and the ones who survived had been forced out by roving bands of bandits. The Roughs was no place for the weak. As he looked, the roof a stable finally gave way and crumbled to the ground. Mac would have to visit the town later, some of the still standing buildings were home to edible vermin. Fresh game would be a nice change to his simple menu that he shared with his guest. Mace continued on his way. After making his way down a beaten dirt path for a minute, he came upon his destination. Set into the side of a low hill was a stone doorway, reminiscent of a tomb. Mace’s family had originally intended for it to house the dead, but they had later modernized and renovated it. It had started with a small renovation, then progressed over the years to become a full underground lair. It had everything he could want, including designated rooms, carved hallways, escape tunnels, ventilation, and a killer game room. As Mace approached he pressed on a small rock near the door. Since the door was unlocked, it quietly slipped to the side, opened by a hidden mechanism. Stone doors were hard to keep clean but were worth it for the extra security they provided. As the hot Scadrial sun beat down on him, Mace took one last breath of fresh air. He had much to do to prepare. In the distance, lighting crackled and it began to rain. Mace sighed, then walked into the heart of the hill.

Characters who should join the MCU
Archer replied to Toaster Retribution's topic in Entertainment Discussion
How's about someone other than a white male as the villain most of the time? Please? -
@Hoid would disagree with you. And possibly @Hoid_The_World_Hopper and @Hoid17

Welcome! Would you like a hemalurgy-free cookie? It's like a normal cookie, except it isn't spiked so it's much healthier for you. I agree with you on the Warbreaker point. I'm a supporter of reading Warbreaker near the beginning of your Sanderfandom, not just because it's a good introduction to the cosmere, but for the reasons you mentioned as well.
