    'no matter what' is probably a bad question. I don't see any reason why it couldn't be shattered again.
  2. Phantom Monstrosity
    I'll throw in that some simpler questions about forgery are already pretty complicated More relevantly, I don't think it would make sense for hemalurgy to have huge reprecussions for the cosmere at large, if Forging could get all the same effects but at a lowercost.
  3. Phantom Monstrosity
    I think hemalurgy messes with spiritual stuff almost exclusively, and forgery generally messes with cognitive stuff.
  4. Phantom Monstrosity
    Well, I mean, what else can you chalk up Returned superpowers to?
  5. Phantom Monstrosity
    Not sure if it means anything, but the symbol is different than the ones in Whelan's first sketches

    1) Take a whip 2) Put a nice sharp blade at the end 3) Enjoy your impossible-to-predict allomantic flail of doom.

    Well, if he needs a guy to source gems for soulcasters, I know people.

    Here's all of them at the same rotation and roughly the same size I don't really think that 'symmetry' is really that significant. It's a crab. Crabs are symmetric. When people are doing a design that incorporates crabs, they also tend to choose red for the color. At least, if doing a quick scan of google images is any indicator. Also, I decided to rotate them both 180 degrees, because why not

    It's really annoying. Like, say I post some random image that doesn't need resizing. If this popup image handling thing wasn't enabled, I could right click and select 'copy', or 'view image', and those features would work as expected. But currently, I can't, because of this weird pseudofeature thing.

    Hey man, blame Sazed, not me. Regardless, trying to quantify 'luck' seems like a bad idea in the first place. Does 1000x luck mean 'if you roll three d10s, they'll all come up 10?', or 'you'll make a thousand times more money when gambling' or what.

    They seem less similar than these two examples The Nigerian Coat of Arms The Pennsylvania State Flag I mean, if there was like, a pair of dots next to the banner crab or something, or if the symbol crab had actual pinchers that came around the front, I might be more convinced. I mean, there are crustaceans everywhere. It makes sense for them to be as ubiquitous there as horses are on coats of arms IRL.

    Well, better feruchemists are better at manipulating their weight with iron HoA chapter 43 bumper: Similarly, inquisitors with spikes took longer to store feruchemical health than a real feruchemist (due to hemalurgic decay). I think it's a pretty solid assumption that stronger feruchemists can store and tap more of an attribute at once.
  13. Phantom Monstrosity
    From Vin and the inquisitors, we know aluminum doesn't do anything to hemalurgic spikes, and duralumnium doesn't seem to either.

    I've just been waiting for an opportunity to post that. Everett True is the best.

    Here's a bigger version They're both crab-like and red, but none of the details seem to match up. Since the symbol is on a map as well, it seems that it's an established one in-universe; I wouldn't expect a flag or banner to have so much variation.
  16. Phantom Monstrosity
    I dunno, man. That flag symbol has some pretty big differences.

  18. Phantom Monstrosity
    Depends entirely upon how skilled you are as a feruchemist.
  19. Phantom Monstrosity
    Well, there's that memory altering stuff which we're not sure about. Nightblood has all sorts of weirdness. And Returned apparently keep their superhuman abilities even when suppressed. Let's see... oh yeah. Children and animals innately trust Returned as well.
  20. Phantom Monstrosity
    BRB, looking out window.
  21. Phantom Monstrosity
    I downvoted KChan's post solely because she just promised not to get revenge on me. Neener neener!
  22. Phantom Monstrosity
    You... do realize that 'inertia' would be a total rehash of feruchemical weight, right?

  24. Phantom Monstrosity
    Well, Kelsier said that it's actually quite difficult to change the amount of force you use (allomancers fly with short controlled bursts, rather than regulating the strength constantly), but he might not have been using exact terminology.
  25. Phantom Monstrosity
    ... I wonder if there's a market for stickers to customize your endpapers. Dunno, seems like something fans might want.
