Dang, that was unfortunate. Someone upvoted a post of mine in this thread from like 4 years ago and I consequently have lost the game.
I had a pretty strong streak going too, especially for someone who’s lost the game at some point in their life.

I got it in 6 but hey, I’d rather get it in 6 than not at all. It was pretty tricky because I’d forgotten that word entirely but luckily

SpoilerI guessed both Rlain and Laral earlier so it worked out

Thank you! And double thank you
On a separate note, you know that awkward moment where you create a poll to decide your pfp and it’s a 50/50 tie?

Just now, teknopathetic said:
Now that we have had 2 Hoid books, I’m fairly sure this last one is going to be Hoid’s Origin story.
I’d say that this is unlikely given the fact that Dragonsteel is already confirmed to be Hoid’s origin story, and that it wouldn’t be written until after Stormlight is completed.

easy, bring a soulcaster and use it to produce lots of gold and buy Breath with that.

hey so
SpoilerI saw that my buddy @Ink did one of these and tbh it's a good idea cuz nobody remembers me probably
which frankly isn't too heartbreaking because I was extremely cringe oofbasically
hi everyone, your favorite tryhard/spaz/mediocre comedic relief has returned to activity. probably mostly gonna be lurking around but it's good to be back. I got Rhythm of War and Cytonic both right as they came out but proceeded to read neither one until early 2022 (cue the gasps of horror as everyone realizes I had a whole Stormlight and didn't read past the prologue for over a year. a travesty I know). I actually pretty much completely stopped reading any books at all from late 2019 all the way up till this past December and now oh gosh help I'm obsessed with Brandon's works once again.
I'm basically all the way caught up except I do still need to read all the Cytoverse novellas and I'm afraid I'm gonna end up missing out on The Lost Metal, Alcatraz 6, Defiant, Stormlight 5, and SP's 1-4 whilst on my church mission to Germany that I'm starting this summer. I can't promise too much activity and obviously I am going to completely disappear again in July but hey! This is March

Ah, I remember the old days of the Alleyverse. I was pretty immature back then but I'd love to dip my toes in again at least a little bit, especially as the AV gets rolling again, if you'd have me. Never used the points system for any of my characters as it was implemented in era 3 which is right when my activity tapered off, but I do remember having a character that was quite a bit overpowered
forgot how storming epic the emoticons are on this site hahaSpoilerName:
Zaren Hasting
Aliases:
Starseeker the Bright on Nalthis and in the Alleyverse, Zaren Aladar on Roshar, Zaren but pronounced Zay-reen on Sel
Appearance/Physical Characteristics:
Tall, broad chested, muscular, tan skinned, short black hair, emerald-coloured eyes. 20 years of age. His attractive face and large physique make him look quite a lot like a Returned. In reality, he is half-Scadrian and half-Nalthian- he has the ability to change his appearance (Royal Locks) due to his Returned ancestry.
Investiture:
Mistborn, the Royal Locks, and the single Breath he was born with (intends to collect more).
Skills:
Decent at Allomancy but not amazing (knows less about the higher metals), athletic, good fighter, intelligent and quick-thinking, good at altering various aspects of his appearance. Knows enough of metallurgy to mix his own alloys and make his own Allomantic vials.
Equipment:
Aluminum knives, numerous vials with the basic Allomantic metals, various disguises including a mistcloak, Returned garb, Arelene/Alethi/Elendel Basin clothing. Returned status on Nalthis/lighteyes status on Roshar/noble status on Scadrial and Sel give him access to enough wealth to basically buy what he needs.
Weakness:
Somewhat naive and inexperienced, not fully trained in Allomancy or in general combat, prefers to negotiate with his enemies instead of fighting with them which doesn't work that great in the AV.
Family:
Zaren's father is a Hasting nobleman who worldhopped over to Nalthis pre-Catacendre, and his mother is an Idrian woman with royal blood. They fell in love and Zaren happens to have just enough Connection to both Preservation and Endowment to enable his unique combination of Investiture.
Home Planet:
Would consider Nalthis his home planet, especially ever since the Catacendre when Scadrial was remade. Has hideouts on Scadrial (Elendel), Roshar (Alethkar), Sel (Arelon), Nalthis (Idris), and a home base in the Alleyverse.
Backstory:
Zaren was born on Nalthis, and his Mistborn father realized that his son was also a Mistborn relatively early on in life. His father then trained him to be decent at Allomancy, but not amazing. At age 18, Zaren faked his own death with a Lifeless assassin and survived the otherwise-fatal wound with pewter, miraculously "Returning" as Starseeker the Bright, altering his appearance and burning metals to make himself appear to be a Returned. This was originally a scheme to gather Breaths as he entered the Court of Gods and would soon get one Breath each week, but his father revealed the truth of the greater Cosmere to Zaren before this unfolded. Intrigued by the implications, Zaren set out to explore, visiting a variety of planets and acquiring unique items and skills from each. He intends to eventually return home to Nalthis and gather more Breaths, but he is currently in the Alleyverse, posing as a brand new Returned that feeds on Stormlight to stay alive. (note that he can't actually feed on Stormlight currently as this is just a cover story)
Guild:
Currently unaffiliated but would be leaning towards TUBA if they're still around
Personality:
Jovial, optimistic, funny, smiley, but also persuasive, cunning, and clever.
Modus Operandi:
Prefers to first talk to his opponents if he can, hoping to either negotiate or to cause them to relax. If he must fight, he likes to attack quickly, catching them by surprise, and deliver witty one-liners as he does it. His favorite is a right uppercut while yelling "HERE'S THE PUNCHLINE!" at the top of his lungs. If he knows he can't talk, then he usually skips straight to the art of surprise.
Heh yeah, haven't made one of those in a hot minute. I tried to keep him somewhat tame but I guess as a Mistborn he might be over on points. Hopefully it's fine.

Hiya friends, got some ADHD over here. It doesn’t really affect me as much as most mental illnesses affect most people, so I do hesitate to post here as I definitely have not had nearly the major struggles many people have had with mental illness. Mostly I have a really hard time focusing on certain things, I can never remember what I’m going to say in conversations so I have to interrupt people to get a word in edgewise, and I get random intruding thoughts all the time that are completely off topic. Oh yeah and also (probably unrelated to the ADHD) I feel like a complete failure on a daily basis but I’m working on that, so all in all really not too bad. I’m also lucky in that I have a really amazing support system with friends and family irl and online. Glad to be here and I want y’all to know I’m here for you
