Lesser spren

I'm re reading TBOM and trying to find a physical description of the translation and heat medallions, but I'm having a hard time finding it. does any one know where I can find it?

that refers to why everything heats up form the sun. not why specifically sunhearts fill with investiture From TSM Freshly made sunhearts are already filled with investiture, that's why they glow. If a Sunheart with any investiture would work then you could refill a Sunheart that was only partially depleted but not outright drained without needing to prime it.

The page for sunhearts states the following: This passage seems to imply any undepleted sunheart will be recharged. This is a false assumption. Chapter 45 of The Sunlit Man states a nondepleted sunheart must be primed with investiture from another source, (either a living canticlite donor or something else) in order to be recharged.

I've been wondering what would occur if a feruchemist could tap someone elses identity mind. You likely could use their other metal mind, and if the one how filled the metal mind had accsess to other invested arts you could probably rereclaim breathes, surge infusions, etc. But would you take on the personality traits of the individual like with soul stamps? would you even begin to think you were the individual who filled the metal mind?

I think lurchers will become a lot more prevalent once almoantic grenades become more common. Also we shouldn't forget a the variety their non- combat uses are. In a city full of metal an well-trained lurcher can slingshot themselves just as well as any coinshot, a lurcher standing on something metal (such as a train) can anchor themselves better than any skimmer, a lurcher could steal the boxings from right out under your nose before a lesser pickpocket could even close. Let us not forget the greatest feats of the survivor's life included burning Steel and iorn. Iron is a phenominal allomantic metal if you just have the imaginiation for it.

At Jordancon 2026 Brandon had this exchange: This wording is ereily similar to an Advert in "The New Asendacy," Is this where Cultivation ended up? Did she seek asylum from harmony? Or did she sneak into the system?

my mistake, sorry. is there any way for me to more this to the discussion forum?

I meant it to be just a silly hypothetical, nothing serious. That said, for the worst reading orde,r you have to start with Stormlight 5. It's the end of the series, contains huge spoilers both for Stormlight and for the cosmere as a whole and has complex lore that would utterly baffle the reader without proper context.

There is a lot of discussion on the reading order that creates the most satisfaction and excitement, while minimizing spoilers and possible misunderstandings. But what reading order could do the opposite: Maximising confusion and spoilers while mimizing character arcs and story impact?

I haven't seen many people talk about the cosmere phenomenon where a creature can not only control another creature's actions but also perceive through their senses as well. This seems to be different than the Nahel bond, but we have seen it for Kandra, Koloss, and to a certain extent Midnight Essence as well. I decided to coin the term Familiarism for it because it is similar to the mechanics for familiars in DND. Are there any examples I missed?

I said this in another thread, but perhaps for the worms to have an effect, they need to be seen by the fauna as part of Patji's ecosystem. Like Zellion was adopted into Canticle. You spend enough time surviving on the island, and you are viewed as part of it, rather than an outsider.

Alright I must have just missed it. thanks you for the correction

I was checking Coppermind for info about the evil. One section mentioned how several arcanists had luck with overfeeding the entities, but the chapter that line was linked to didn't mention anything about that. Does anyone know which chapter that line this information is mentioned or have any theories as to what happens when an entity is overfed?

The answer might be right in front of us, it could be that Sazed was the only living shard to change his own intent, (such as from harmony to discord)

I asked a similar question before, regarding honorblades and Nightblood, but I was wondering what would happen in the physical realm, if pure anti-investiture came into contact with a soul flame or object spren? Would the turn into black smoke like with nightblood or would somthing else happen?

I have a oneshot that also doubles as a plot hook for a larger campaign. just a heads up I plagiarized a little from TWOK. There are also some Isles of the Emberdark spoilers at the very end as part of the plothook, but you can easily cut that out: https://docs.google.com/document/d/15rhbxsGX_z3CIQ5Jk1PvNZcFPbEoWmnktoZtutTD6Is/edit?usp=sharing

We know things in the physical realm affect objects in the spiritual and to a certain extent vise versa (see: Soulcasting) but I'm not sure we ever saw what happens when invested weapons attempt to destroy shadesmar phenomenon that have counterparts in the physical realm. does anyone know of an example?

Hi, I'm running the cosmere RPG and I wanted a Nephilim that was somhow lured to shadesmar as the BBEG I was wondering if any of you had ideas on how my players could defeat it or at least lure it away?

We know that Rayseium doesn't just suck out investiture. It conducts investiture from one end to another. So what if a human was on the other end? Would it forcefully invest a Radiant or a misting? What if the person were just a normal human without any powers or invested arts?

Looking at the 17S Code of conduct I don't see any rules specifically about homophobia or transphobia. I suppose you referring to:
