He'd turn it down, probably. This is the guy who straight up said he'd be willing to let Roshar burn if it got him where he needed to be. He can't hurt people. At all. Humans, no-go. Singers, no-go. Voidbringers, no-go. Dude can't hurt anyone. -
It's not really impractical, they just don't know that they can do something like that, so they don't even try to burn metals anywhere else. It would be impractical if it was something like "only certain metals can be burned via non-stomach ways" or something, but it's mostly just that they think you have to eat the metals because that's the way it's always been done.
-
Yeah. like Nathrangking said, Wit/Hoid can't actually physically harm people, so that tends to set him back, and he's nowhere near Shard-levels of power anyway. Especially against Odium, who would gladly flay him again and again.
-
That would need either a spike of a certain metal that shouldn't exist anymore or a lot of spikes, with one for each power. The bindpoints might also be hard to figure out on a horse, and it's not like spikes are good to waste. Plus, why would you want that?
-
Debatable.
-
We don't know if he made human/singer interbreeding possible. The Ashyn disaster happened long after he'd been Shattered and based on the way cosmere future-sight works, it's doubtful if he'd have been able to see that as anything other than a vague possibility. It's possible that he did think to do it, but I think it's more likely that it's just Cultivation messing around. It's a mix. Some can, some can't.
-
That's an emotion thing. Humans express more emotions than the singers do, so they go there first. That's the only reason they were trying so hard to attract them. Unclear. They're technically two separate species and with the pretty much permanent rivalry between the two, I don't see there being a good point to establish an entire merged subset without Shardic intervention.
-
Probably known as Cultivation's influence, honestly. I don't think the mixes came about without her doing her thing.
-
No, not all Horneaters can see the spren. It's even implied there's a certain cultural honor thing for the ones that can, mentioned in passing by Rock. I think the pools give them heat but don't have enough to act as transition points. We'll find out sometime, since Sandman has said he plans to visit the Peaks on-screen.
-
I think they all have some of Cultivation's Investiture on them, hence the atmospheric warming on them, but I don't think any of the others would work as a transition point except the main one. Don't take my word as law on that one, it's speculation. Yes, and Rock vehemently denied that. Perception plays a big part in this, and I think the perception of this from the Horneaters does the job nicely.
-
The Horneaters are at least partially evolved that way at this point (Rock can see all spren, and some other Horneaters can too, plus they're able to swim in the pools themselves that kill everyone else), so what life there would be around their peaks would probably be like that too. Most of the Shardpools that we've seen aren't in a location that would be able to support much life, though, so if it happens to every ecosystem is unclear.
-
That was my thought too. It would be interesting to see it happen in real time, to get an estimate of how long that would take. I should just be a cosmere biologist
-
Someone's been digging around in my older posts and upvoting them. I just want to say, if that's you: I appreciate you. Also, thanks for the rank up.
-
That sounds like the kind of thing a certain Taldani Shard would be interested in... Also, it begs the question of if animals would evolve to live near it and if they would get some Invested benefits from doing so.
-
Alright, just making sure!
-
We actually got confirmation a little while back that Nightblood does contain an abnormal amount of Ruin's Investiture.
-
Finally noticing where they actually were, Kazil noticed he was hungry and they happened to be in the perfect place to solve that problem. "Hey, Clare, want some food?"
-
Kazil almost didn't hear her, still trying to get people to answer him but eventually it got through his skull and he turned to her, grimacing. "I'm sorry about that. I saw...I thought I saw someone I knew. I didn't mean to leave you behind."

Mistborn Dice: Part Two (Pledge Manager is open to all)
Invocation replied to Pagerunner's topic in Mistborn
As cool of an idea as that would be...lawsuits would abound. -

I know that it would still be there, but in order for it to be mentioned in the personality part, you'd essentially be right back where you started with it in a category, only now it's inside another category. Seems redundant for something that relevant to a character.
-
I still disagree. Wrapping it into another section doesn't seem like it's giving the psyche portion of a character as much importance as is needed.
-
In some ways it is, in some ways it isn't. I think the system works just fine how it is.

Oh hey, Sun! Yeah, like Sorana said, not much is different in scoring from E3 to E4. A lot of new characters and shuffled-up old ones, though. I don't remember if you were here for the revamp of the Radiant power-sorting or not, but that's a thing that happened.
