Ark1002

I was inspired by another topic, so what would happen if an animal (such as a beaver) took up a shard? Would it become intelligent and human-like? Or would it stay chaotic, such as a giant cat playing with the world like it was yarn. Maybe it would be dependant on the shard? Like Harmony would give enlightenment, Odium would cause the animal to stay instinctual? Just wondering about people's theories.

First, this question is both stupid, and incredibly great. I believe you could do that, IF you also mutated the beaver with spikes so it was very intelligent. Otherwise there is only one other way it could be an evil beaver overlord. If ruin took over a beaver it may very well become a sort of creepy super-inquisitor, but as a beaver so full of spikes it would look like a walking pincushion. It is possible it would turn good though, and become a hero. I can see it know 'Mistborn: The Beaver Rises'. Also, what would happen if a beaver (or other non-human species) took up a shard? Would it become enlightened, and become intelligent? Or would it stay and animal, causing chaos with it's huge levels of power?

Hmm.... Brandon Sanderson didn't do a long series for white sand, and only two for this. Is there a pattern? Also, this is his second graphic novel series. Is this going to be a side to his main novels? Graphic Novels? Plus, even though white sand wasn't the best, he may be getting better and better.

Yeah, it would be almost impossible for her to replicate, but it would probably work. Plus this is fantasy, it doesn't necessarily need to follow the laws of physics.... seems like a good concept though.
