http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/3638-kandra-on-other-shardworlds/ I've seen others use the word world hopping for what is presumably allomancy based ftl travel. It's not that locked down. People just use it to refer to anyone that can travel from world to world. E.g. With the idea that TenSoon and MeLaan are worldhopping together with ftl and doing stuff. I've also seen it used to refer to how shards transported humans from world to world back in the olden days. www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/3497-humanitys-spread-through-the-cosmere

As far as I am aware, Sanderson hasn't given us clear terminology on what travel via Shadesmar is called, and hasn't called it world hopping or world traveling. I was referring to them hoping from world to world, having adventures and killing shards or whatever they actually do. http://www.wizards.com/magic/multiverse/planeswalkers.aspx I'd more naturally use the term traveling for what Hoid does than world hopping, since he presumably has to walk all the way to the other world through shadesmar and one of the possible obvious inspirations for it travels rather than hops.

"She took me to what looked like his sort of region. I think she was going to use me as proof. Present me as her prison. After petting me and playing with me. I tapped a lot of connection. I can probably avoid her better in the future. Tin and electrum will guide me. I didn't use it properly last time, to protect myself. I won't make that mistake again. This terris feruchemy is versatile, but it can't match the total control over the world that allomancy brings." Alfie nodded. "I am hungry. It took a lot out of me, those injuries. I'd love something good."

Harmony. He finds it disturbing, parasitic, chaotic, destructive, yet impressive. His dislike of it is clear. Hemalurgy is not a power of balance in most cases. It is a way to unbalance things.

"The woman took me. She knocked me out as I was leaving with a brick. She shot at me." Alfie shook, remembering the dark events. It had been bad. As Satsu asked for the spike, he started healing heavily. He would try to have a lot of that power within him when the spike left. Arrrgh. It hurt. But the tingles of power within him numbed it. This wound wouldn't cut as deep as most. Stars flashed before his eyes and the world went out of focus. The wound dripped a little more blood onto the floor. "It was the terris woman. The tin burner who you saw before. She was waiting for me outside with a gun and a brick. She knew something about us. She captured me, and I mollified her with my metals. I managed to escape with pewter and steel and electrum." He breathed in deep, trying to focus. He felt very dizzy.

Sanderson has explicitly stated that Stormlight won't go into great detail about the Cosmere. Dragonsteel and Mistborn 3, due in over a decade, probably will. Dragonsteel will involve the original characters that became shards as humans, Mistborn 3 will involve worldhopping allomancers.

Alfie floated. Then, from afar, a massive metal object flew towards him. He danced and dodged but nothing could stop it. It hit him. He gave in. Healing flushed his body. His bones knitted, his skin healed. Old wounds closed. He stopped breathing. He didn't need to breath. Wow. He got up, feeling quite strong. He had... something new in him. A spike. The source of this power? "I remember the beatings and the attacks... where am I?" He forced his eyes open, against the blood and sweat that had dribbled onto them from a cut on his forehead. He was in the basement and Satsu... Was in a lot of pain. "Your... gold spike." he flexed his paws, the world coming into focus. "Thank you. You saved me from her."

The hugo awards perhaps? http://www.brandonsanderson.com/blog/1152 So riding on the fame of him winning an award at the hugo awards (presumably involving his books getting increased sales) he can release the new scene.

A lot of people are gonna be irrational. They'll see the book and go "Ooh, mistborn. I'll be a mistborn." Irrationality is always important to consider.

Alfie wiggled on the floor, spinning through dreams and fantasies in his head. He felt so weak. Even in his dreams he could barely stand. The world was against him. And a cat couldn't do much against the world.

That was why I picked it up.

Runelords book 1 sum of all men. A lot of similarities to awakening and feruchemy.

Can you go for any ability from the series? Because then I go for being the Shard of Preservation. If not, I'd go for the power of being a seeker that was turned into an inquisitor with some random series of spikes. I would then seek down y'all and become more powerful.

Lord Sindred strolled outside, confident that he had made Satsu seen reason and weathered the worst of it. And a 60% discount, ooh, it made his hands itch in anticipation. He wouldn't be able to get a much better deal than that. Politely saying goodbye to the Butler, he left the house and went to get his cab. Felendwyl was waiting for him, looking eager and agitated. "I captured one. It flew through the air like an eagle but I got it! And then it twisted my mind with emotional allomancy- I wouldn't care for a cat like that! But I held onto it, until we got to your estate. Then it used pewter to bulge like a frog and escape from my arms. I saw it all!" Sindred patted her. "Of course. His cat is a frog eagle. I have completed my negotiations. Are you ready to return home? Felendwyl looked sad. "Yes... I guess." They walked, Felendwyl telling him all about what happened, Sindred listening knowingly.

Didn't Kelsier hold the powers of Preservation when Leras died, thus making him a sliver?

Thank you for the recording. It is quite hard to hear, but happily we have many dedicated and amazing transcribers who can in time transcribe it for us.

Yeah. And it takes a lot of intent to influence someone in a major way. Well of Ascension or Shard level power. Mistborns and even Vin powered up by the mists weren't affected much.

Has that been confirmed as a general rule for gold? It could just be due to her inexperience with it.

On the gold, the penalties aren't just roleplaying. Take this exchange say from house of ashes. You get to see how much better your life could be and how useless you are. You get distracted by your vision of hope. Or. Hence why it's seen as rather useless. Who can resist asking if your life could have been better? You get to see what a horrible person you are.

Felendwyl retied makeshift bandages on the back leg,fixing the leg so it couldn't move. She wasn't very good with helping animals. And she didn't want the cat to run away in panic, it was too precious. "Here we are, m'lady," said the coachman The world was a mess of pain. His body was broken and bound. She held Alfie close to her, and opened the door. His head burnt so. But yes. The door was open. It was time. His connection buzzed, his steel was tight in his belly. Felendwyl stepped out,holding the cat tightly. Her head felt strange. Alfie burnt steel and tapped pewter, trying to get away and run away on the ground. His push was not stong enough to break her grip, but strong enough to throw her forward several paces. The coachman gaped "Please pay the fare my lady. The cat started to twist in her hands. Poor beast, it must have been frightened out of its wits. Felendwyl nodded her head to the coach, where she left the fare in advance. With a strange look at her, coachman retreats. He felt his ribs twist in his chest. damnation. That hurt With a deft twist, Alfie manages to fall out of her hands. He then finds out that the cats are not really made to run on two working paws and skittered about. Alfie then used his steel, trying to make it look like he was running while floating on steel, using whatever metal sources were nearby. Felendwyl watches in astonishment as the cat swelled like a Brute and fell, trying to run on two paws He aimed at an alley, going as fast as he could to it, away from prying eyes. Before she could gather herself, the cat stated to slide away, swinging his working paws in a strange manner. Alfie tried to break out of his bandage with his strength, to free his legs.Already strained by his bulk, bandages snap easily enough, falling off and unfortunately tearing the scab on the wound. As she gotten over her astonishment, Felendwyl runs after the cat. Luckily for both of you, the street is deserted. Alfie manages to achieve something like three-legged slide-gait. Alfie pushed his steel harder, accelerating quickly. He prepared his pewter to make a massive leap, to bound up high into the air. He'd then push onto a building and make his way away from her. As Alfie approaches the building, the door opens to let out 3 people, probably going out somewhere. They see the most adorable cat, seemingly flying over pavement on three legs, suddenly bulk up and soar into the air. Next they see a frazzled Ferris woman run after the cat. "Please catch it" - she implores. Too late though, as the cat is on the roof, out of immediate reach, leaving a trail of blood. Alfie didn't want to be caught, even by such good fellows but he didn't want to hurt anyone. So he used steel to run up the building and escape. Three gaping witnesses were left behind, along with Felendwyl, who looked around for a good place to climb the roof Alfie stopped tapping connection. Woah. That was...Weird. He had work to do though. He flared his zinc slammed it against the group, trying to drive them insane. Felendwyl blinked. Suddenly pursuing the cat didn't seem as important. She knew where it lived. Maybe later. He *felt* their confusion, though not Felendwyl's, since she moved away and is farther. Why was he doing this? It was... He had to continue. Felendwyl wasn't pursuing him yet. Yet. He kept an eye on her with steel He flared his zinc at the group again. The three people look around, confused. What were they doing, anyway? They remember something magnificent and cattish, but are not all cats magnificent? They turned and went back home. Alfie used what remains of his bandage to cover his wound, successfully, while burning electrum and looking for a safe path away from Felendwyl. Felendwyl considers blood trail on the wall. Felendwyl carefully went to an alleyway (opposite) and climbed on the roof with her grapple. She found the place where the blood trail ended, but there was no indication as to where the cat went Alfie succedds in stopping blood loss. Movng that paw is not recommended. Desperate and bleeding he knew he had to escape. He would then the shadow route, using electrum to check every path and course. He would store connection. Becoming as invisible as he felt. He'd been captured, perhaps revealed them all. damnation. Oh well. Another day, cat, she thought. Though… SHe remembered her feelings. Connection, The cat was more dangerous than she though at first. And what were those bones? Deep in thought, she went to her home for a change of clothes. She was supposed to meet lord Sidred before Satsu's house after his meeting. Maybe she'll meet the cat again. When Alfie got close, he would avoid going directly to the house, fearing that she had got there before him. He would look for her, or any feruchemists. Deeply wounded, Alfie nevertheless successfully returns to the area, spotting no Feruchemists on the way. He arrives before Felendwyl, since the meeting is scheduled to run for another hour. Argh. Everything was fuzzy. Just a little further... He had to get there Somewhere safe. These paws were his? Or someone else's... 1Was that his pain he was feelings? Or the world? He could hear voices in his head, some yelling. Some whispering, though they were hardly less sinister.. He really wasn't doing well. He went around the back and entered the house. Alfie got inside, drank some water, and collapsed on the floor, tired and broken.

You can get blindsight, which lets you hear where people are through walls. As such you can know their exact location. This can be boosted by your feruchemy. The rpg lists similar problems for feruchemy and allomancy. How often do you need to hear well enough to hit someone with an arrow through a wall at five hundred yards in complete darkness? You can store 50 charge in a short breather, 150 in a long breather. So long as you only do it rarely you're probably fine. Once every three sessions maybe. With scent, a more useful power, you don't actually need a sense of smell for most adventures so you can store a lot of it. Especially with tin boosting your scent. Double electrum grants you immunity from flared emotional allomancy since it boosts your willpower, a useful power. It's like gold compounding for the mind. Very useful in more social oriented campaigns. I'd probably bump that up to 2. Bendalloy is a fairly weak one to compound. Could be used for disguises, but not much else. Feru Bendalloy is in general a rather weak power. Expensive too. There is a point to drawing a line- if we are talking about the strength of the power, unless compounding grants you extra strength it shouldn't be mentioned. Though I am convinced that tin is worth 1 point at least. Edit. Another point. Brass compounding should be higher. "For every 10 charges of warmth you tap, everyone within 10 paces (Close Range) suffers 1 less damage from ice and cold. Additionally, attacks you make against living creatures inflict +1 damage per 20 charges tapped, so long as you attack with your bare hands (or another exposed part of your body) and you can reach an exposed patch of your target’s skin." You can literally melt people to death with it. You can't do that much with normal brass feru. It takes a while to store it. But with compounding? Every blow you made could be powerful enough to melt and kill someone. You could set fires with your hands. It's got some tight requirements, so it's not a 3, but it could be very useful to someone. Something a full feruchemist would wish he had.

I doubt being able to hear the tumblers clicking on a safe two miles away would be an especially good idea, since you take damage if your senses are too sensitive. You can do the other two things with tin allo alone. With feru and allo tin you can probably do them quite easily. Thinking about it, it might be useful as a sniper. Nighttime shots. You'd need to do a lot to need compounding though. The issue is more, how often do you need super high levels of tin? Above your already exceptionally high levels. I suppose it may be useful for a reporter or some such character as well. The original post was assigning values to allomancy, feruchemy, and compounding. If you have feruchemy and allomancy you do get additional value from both powers and points. Almost any set gives you benefits if you combine them. I would prefer some power other than double tin if I had the choice, incidentally.

Seeing the moons of Jupiter is not something that most want to do on a regular basis. You could do that by saving up for a few hours anyway. It's a fairly weak situation ability at best, and in game there's little reason to regularly be staring at the stars. Having feruchemy and allomancy tin together is useful for the reason you describe, but you don't need to compound it to gain that benefit. You could use flared tin and hearing tin minds together without compounding. And you'll be able to hear a lot with them working together. This is for the mistborn rpg. There aren't that many situations where you need to use flared tin and lots of feru tin together for a long period of time, enough that you'd need compounding. You can solve the issues of being a tin savant with tin, but you can also save it with pewter, or gold likely- the third column is about the benefits of compounding. On gold- Sanderson. It's useful for roleplaying and characterisation, but doesn't offer you game rule benefits. While it can be useful to show off your character, it's not something I'd really factor into the value of a character. It also hurts your willpower whenever you burn it, making you more vulnerable to attack.

I'd probably make copper compounding less high (it's not too useful for you) I'd raise nicrosil allomancy up a point (you can supercharge companions and disable enemies) I'd take gold down to 0 points since it's not that useful and can be actively useless if used wrong, I'd probably raise iron compounding a point as, like with alloy of law, iron feru plus any metal controlling metal is super useful. You can pull anything to you, no one can resist. Guns are now useless. That is hard to counter. Would you get any benefit from tin compounding? It's easy enough to store tin, it lasts ages, and there's not a lot you can't do with huge amounts of tin that you can't do with lots of tin.

You may well need a gem of some sort to surgebind. So they'd need enough gems to support whatever relentless actions they took out in the open where they could receive power.
