Mistspren

Nicroburst. I’m not really surprised.

Welcome to the forum! If you look at this same exchange, Khriss also highlights red shift in speed bubbles, something Brandon talks about in the WoB Archer linked. I believe this is lampshading, a technique in writing where the author has the characters point out how strange something is to cover up and provide an excuse for why something does not function as expected. This can cover anything from plot holes to foreshadowing, but in this case I believe Brandon is just drawing attention to the otherworldly, spiritual aspect of the magic, and covering the slight inconsistencies with physics. It is fantasy, after all, and not everything has a 1:1 parallel with the real world. Whatever the case, it’s good to have more observant people willing to question why things work in the Cosmere, and I’m sure you’ll fit right in here at the shard. Glad to have you.

Still probably tastes good though. 91) That feeling that you are being watched is probably caused by the fact that you are being watched. Don't ignore it. Don't question all the Biochromatic Breaths you ended up somehow gaining either.

Vivenna knew Kaladin was an invested individual with great interest in her, and naturally assumed he was following her from Nalthis, as the KR’s return was not common knowledge. Vivenna seems to expect that she was being tailed, and the questions Kaladin was asking were targeted at ascertaining her identity and abnormality. It was merely an assumption that made sense in the circumstance, or at least that’s how I see it.

*Is not Horneater* Yay, I’m an airsick lowlander!

If any combat or assassination breaks out, I propose the initiating member tag a mediator to oversee the exchange and verify it.

Great job.

No, but that’s an interesting guess. This character has speaking lines in a book.

No, not him either. This character is not a magic user.

I’d like to raise an alternate opinion. I feel that the application of rules and strict regulations kills the fun and more casual atmosphere of the Alleyverse war. This is enjoyable as loosely guided endeavor where you have to find loopholes or plan ahead for assassinations and try to outthink the opponent, but if that air was replaced by a bland, standard punishment without workaround this would feel tedious, strained, and make the forum feel much more hostile. Additionally, it would make users feel compelled to spend all their time fighting instead of enjoying the site itself or the community. TL;DR some framework is good, but don’t sacrifice the spirit or loose nature of the conflict.

Nope. This character threw a family member in jail.

None of those. This character is only in one book.

This character is male.

Hrathen?

“Of course.” Mistspren pockets the device and removes the essence mark. It was good to have a day off the fighting.

Mistspren sat, thinking in the dark. It was so quiet, it was loud. The silence was palpable, roaring all around. Something changed. It was an immeasurable shift, at once too large and minute to quantify. A faint tugging, an itch that could not be scratched pointing towards some unknowable event. Eyes snapping open, Mistspren surveyed the small room. An essence mark pressed onto Mistspren’s arm, granting advanced of Alleymatics, enough to allow some... interesting applications. A small device shaped like a knife rested in Mistspren’s hand, borne from the years of training and research at the finest universities the mark granted. Slashing upwards with the device, Mistspren stepped forward. The device ripped a hole in the fabric of time itself, trailing velvety darkness. Mistspren emerged next to MacThorstenson, nodding toward him cordially before reclining into a chair to watch the duel. “Hey Mac. Nice pavilion.”

Bingo.

*shakes head* I’ll give a clearer hint. This character is known to wear red.

Nope. This character has a sister.
