Invocation

Scadrial wins for my money. One they adapt to the Lifeless, which would be the only main thing from Nathis since Nightblood would probably be excluded based on power level, they have the technology advantage on everyone except Taldain and Taldain's Sand Mastery would be countered by most forms of the Metallic Arts via either Thugs just powering through the abrasion, Bloodmakers healing the abrasions at a rate that would tend to distract the Sand Masters, Steelrunners just going around them, or any of the other solutions, Scadrial has the magical advantage to make up for their technological shortcomings in that matchup, even if it's really just a battle of attrition at the end with Scadrial versus Taldain. Edit: Just noticed Taldain wasn't included anyway. Scadrial wins.

Specific WOBs for you, but yeah pretty much what Weltall said.

Ah, that's a fun one, even if I don't necessarily agree.

It's pretty fun. If you ever want to get involved, shoot me a PM and I'll give you the basics as best as I can! We always like new people, and there's more-or-less something for everyone down there. What's your favorite theory you've read here, since that's what you've been stalking?

If it's a copy you can't get ahold of, try this. If it's time...well, I can't help with that, sadly. Got any interest in the RP section by chance?

Yeah, Mennis doesn't get enough credit. Dude really tried his hardest to do what he thought was best. I'm assuming you've read everything if you've been stalking the Shard for a while. Am I wrong?

I don't think the other stuff has to do with hair changing, more like facial feature augmentation like (Stormlight Spoilers) which all comes from the same commonality with Returned. I don't think that would work. It's still part of you, still subject to your own innate Investiture, so I don't think you could Awaken it. Maybe if you tied a whip into your hair that would work though.

Hey, welcome to the Shard! I can't believe no one chose the name Mennis already. Nice job!

Not yet, but I'll certainly make one right now!

Alright I'm doing it anyway. Two scenarios here: the first one is me having it here, on earth, and the second is me having it on Roshar at the time he was actually Truthless. Scenario 1: Scenario 2:

I don't think I can legally type it out without a visit from the FBI.

Ah, that's what threw me off. I'll PM you if I do.

I think I'm missing context for that one. I don't remember. Some very flowery and vaguely prophetic poem-ish thing.

Everything's heresy to someone! I wasn't gonna not make a Horneater have an overly complex name. I followed the rules of Horneater naming as best as I could (including doing my best to translate it into Hawaiian).

I didn't even realize Nah. Slytherin.

Slytherin is better.

I'm Truthwatcher on both, honestly. Gathering information to spread it is admirable, and that's about 90% of what I do already so it'd probably be a cinch to attract one of the spren.

That was the only one that wasn't in debate, since it was mentioned by Sazed that it was the only one that you could fill while sleeping.

@ShadowLord_Lith

Good luck! I certainly hope you can, but don't beat yourself up if you can't. That's what'll get you. Live in the moment, my friend! Side note: do we want to make a NaNo group PM? (I know there's already a Writer's Guild one.)

"I survived by eating the things that threatened me. A strong stomach is a good stomach, and I have the strongest. On the other note, though, if it's Stormlight, it has to be generating it on its own because there's none down here that I can take in, save what I brought for myself." "Sarcasm is a thing of you who cannot get enough air. I have no use of it." Okame frowned at the shoes. "I didn't think anyone had been down here. I haven't seen anyone, or found any remains. I didn't go that deep, of course, but there wasn't any sign of people being down here before." What would it mean if there had been people down here? Was there truly something worth exploring? Okame hadn't yet believed that these caverns were anything other than the result of this world's oddities, but if there had been people down here before enough to leave shoes in some form of bizarre ritual, what else might there be? Chasmfiends, perhaps? No one tell the Alethi. Maybe even sentient life. He wondered if they had a code of law.

Remember that outlining counts for NaNo too! You can sketch out the plot without falling behind like that! (It's what I'm doing, since my project is from the depths of my notebook and had no accompanying information beyond a title and a vague idea.)

Shenanigans. It's a magic system that is original to the AV, afaik. Voidus can tell you more. @Voidus
