eleventh of the moon

well, I mean, how else would Wax have been able to get Mistborn powers from the Bands of Mourning. 

holy cow it's been a long time since I've been on this sight. 

oh, ok, sorry

is deleting posts possible?

noice!

Do I get to create an alleyverse character?

Also, how do you do that hidden content thing?

I swear to never reveal information about TUBA which is deemed secret.

I swear to never spike any baked item with any substance that should not be there.

I swear allegiance to TUBA, and give all due loyalty to TUBA's goals and precepts

I get to join now, right?

so confused. But, 

C is for Cookie, and Cookie is for C

Sorry, just had to put that.

Do they come from Roshar or are they from a different planet?

They are a hivemind. A single consciousness control a horse of cremlings. 

There's on in Edgedancer named Arclo, and another in OB 

oh, awesome. I remember that now. Those things are cool.

wait, whats a sleepless?

well, i have known about the cosmere for a long time, I just didn't know everything was so interconected in it.

Mind Blown

I am both confused and thankful. So, if space between worlds doesn't matter, then why are there so many people from warbreaker in stormlight, yet none from any other world?

ok, cool. That's a good book. And thank you.

Quick question, what does WOB and RAFO mean? Also, which book includes Patji?

awesome, and thank you. does Harmony give more investiture than ruin and preservation? The cognitive realm looked different to Wax when he died than it did for Kelsier. 

so why does the cognitive realm apear differently in Scadrial than Roshar? Is it because a lot of Roshar uses glass beads and a lot of Scadrial has mist?

cool

...they're not. All the Vessels are strongly influenced by the Intent of their Shard, some so strongly their original personality is largely overwritten and others not so much, depending on how good a match there is between Intent and Vessel. Ruin isn't insane per se, he's just become so influenced by the power that he's become unable to do anything else even though he fought against it for a long time. Brandon's mentioned elsewhere that Ati lacked the willpower to resist the transformation, or in other words he wasn't a great match for his Shard. Similarly, Preservation had a fixation on stasis which could be dangerous if unchecked but the real reason he seems so weird in Secret History is that he was dying the whole time. Sazed by contrast is able to hold both those Shards without being so twisted, because he's a good match for both.

That's just those Shards though. Edgli/Endowment hasn't shown any weird personality traits, Rayse/Odium is a nasty customer but he was apparently always that way so his Shard hasn't affected him that much, Tanavast/Honor seemed to be quite stable. OB spoiler

Up until his death when he apparently started to go a bit nuts, but again that's when he was in the process of dying at Odium's hands. According to the Stormfather he kept caring about the people of his world until the end.

The little we've seen of Cultivation doesn't present someone who's insane at all, but rather someone able to engage in very subtle long-range plans.

And Bavadin/Autonomy is... her own unique deal.

ok, that makes sense.

Kal and Vin might fight well together, but as a romantic couple? No-go.

agreed. They often have close personalities and ideals, but they might be too hard for each other. Thats why they need people like Syl and Elend. They would fight great together and a battle between the two would be really epic. 

oh, nice

I now have to wonder, why are all shards insane?

so how exactly does one use the cognitive realm to travel between worlds?

na, too old. Plus, I'm pretty sure Kelsier is a blond

Scadrial in Era 1 is definitely not a fun place to be but on the other hand, neither is Roshar and life there has been sucky for even longer stretches of time. Scadrial had a thousand years and some change of Rashek's theocracy and then the aftermath that let to the Catacendre but after that it's become the nicest place to be in general. Roshar at the time of the books is coming out of thousands of years of relative peace, which still involved wars between human and mostly-human civilizations, several attempted or actual genocides (the Scouring of Aimia), a False Desolation and the mass enslavement of an entire race. And before that there were Desolations that were miniature apocalypses that potentially reset all civilization back to stone age levels occuring on an increasingly regular basis... and now another one has started so Roshar is a really bad place to be. Not to mention that Hoid, used to much nicer environments, had this exchange:

Ok, fine. i guess that makes sense. They are hard in different ways. I still think that in Mistborn era one it is more brutal. In the final empire the ska life is really bad, Roshar peasants never find their life so bad, not even bridge-men. Being a bridge-man id considered the ultimate Rosharan punishment, but think about the pits of hathsin. Also, the ash and killer mist in The Hero of Ages might be worse in the long term than the highstorms. It didn't let things live. I do see what you are saying. Kelsier did what he had to do in his world, but taking him to another world would be catastrophic. The worlds are very brutal in different ways. Era two is a much better world than Roshar. 

Well, you do have to take into account that Scadrial is a much harder and more brutal world then Roshar, so Kelsier needed to be more hard core
