I don't believe that the people of Roshar have any innate investiture. The only shardworlds that come with innate investiture is the people of scadrial (harmony made and given a portion of preservation), and the people of nalthis (given a single breath from Endowment) Rosharans aren't born with investiture but rather find it through the Nahel bond.

Vax is a known planet in the cosmere. Nothing is known about it besides it is a shardworld and that it looks like Scadrials subastral (or cognitive realm). Their have been some vax questions asked but as of yet Brandon has always RAFO'd them as soon as the word vax enters the question.

I agree with @Inky We know that most of a shards fighting happens in the spiritual realm and radioactivity would have no properties or reason that it could cross into let alone the cognitive realm let alone the spiritual realm, which is, as we know, harder to access. I do think that radioactivity might do some weird stuff in the cognitive realm as the landscape would reflect the radioactivity and aversion to that part of the land or something. I'm thinking, what would Chernobyl look like in CR but I don't know if it would change it substantially.

true, i much rather have a odium/endowment combo

This is my new favorite phrase

Survival- The most secret shard, He's just out there chillin' and relaxin all cool, prehaps shooting some b-ball outside of the pool. and he probably wont ever die so thats a plus too

Good question, We know that the sheath is aluminium and thats why it doesn't just kill everything all the time already. So I'm wondering if an aluminum handle would even do anything at all. The blade would still be unsheathed and drawing investiture from any source available. Do we know the material of the handle already? because I think that it's the actual blade that draws investiture. If it was the handle that took investiture then even when it's sheathed it would take investiture.

1. Agreed 2. We don't know, becuase the combination of different investure's do funny stuff. It would be difficult and you would probably have to be specifically looking for it. But it would have to do with how the breaths attach to the atium and how the sword is connected to you I believe. So we most likely won't see it, Like hemulurgy, many things are possible but there are billions of ways to get it wrong and just one to get it right 3. I would like to argue that this is a entirely different case then nightblood (well... not entirely but significantly different) Nightblood was, as far as we know, made from normal metal. The blade being proposed would be made from a god metal, and so I believe that it would, At least a little bit, twist the nature of the blade. My theory would be that it would follow the command perfectly but the actual personality would be more destructive. 4. It would be hard to put all 5 ideals into a single command 5. Agreed 6. You'll need some connection to honor, Maybe hit up the Ire?

Your right on this, In the epigraphs (the little things we see Sazed write before the chapters) in Hero of Ages Sazed says this So he wasn't a cognitive spirit he still had a body it was just ascended.

Uggh if I was forced to learn Eastern Street slang to graduate college I would just be a dockworker for the rest of my life.

Am I the only one who thinks that Adhesion is the dumbest of all the surges. Especially with Windrunners. We've only seen them stick people to things which they could could do already by just changing their gravity to the wall. It doesn't seem to be very effective or useful. With Bondsmiths we see Dalinar use Adhesion to spirtually connect to the Azish enough to speak their language but Windrunners are just stuck with a lame power that has been used in practicing with stormlight and never again. Any Ideas on what Adhesion might do additionally for specifically windrunners, if it does do anything more?

Really just anyone of the 5th Heighting, Born on Nalthis. Bc then you get agelessness and Nalthis is pretty Cosmere aware and you could go about and travel the cosmere. It's said that people on Nalthis even have a customs office to transfer to Nalthis in Shadesmar. So you could do that and then go around with some hemulrgic spikes if you really need anything else then living forever.

I hope Rlain Ascends rather than Navani. Rlain is a cool character but doesn't get very much screen time or anything to do. He just kinda sits around and gets excluded. I'd love if he got this part, and it'll bring the listeners and humans closer.

He's in between if anything, He is very commited to the law, and hunts down people if they break the law regardless of who they are or what they did. I'm pretty sure the Marksman is like "why are you hunting me? there are a bunch of worse people?" and Wax is just like, "well you broke the law and you killed someone". He reminds me of Nale, He hunts down people that broke the law but also was trying to find people connected to the set. Nale was hunting down people that broke the law while also following his own agenda. He still has compassion, unlike Nale, so he was probably like early Nale before he became all unattached.

Wax admits that if the survivors crew lived in his day, He probably would've tried to bring them to justice Besides the fact that Wax would've been the best skybreaker ever, I find it telling that the main protagonist of the second era would find himself opposing Kelsier. My vote is for Era 4 villain

How to get the footer I see other people using?

Yes! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Make Marsh fight to the death with his Younger (more attractive) brother! Harmony's Ruin vs. Harmony's preservation! Battle of the ages

I think that most spren, especially ones that are pulled more fully into the physical realm by the Nahel bond such as Syl and Pattern, can affect the physical realm is small ways, they are mainly insubstantial but they can affect things. In fact windspren are known to stick things together and the such. So I wouldn't say it doesn't happen under normal conditions just maybe not as often as it does on Threnody. Its all about how much they appear in Shadesmar vs. Physical realm. Emotion Spren are mostly in Shadesmar while Windspren are a rare sight as they mostly exist in the Physical

@Timothy Is there a Shard with the intent of Discord? Or were you just referring to harmony?

I agree, It's going to be more on a psychological level. All Radiants are "broken" so the will be more likely get addicted to Stormlight then someone using a honorblade. They have more problems and will go to stormlight just for that increase in strength.

Breeze is saying that he wished he could use it on himself after the siege of Luthadel. Shortly after he went and hid in the building and survived. So post Siege, Pre releasing of Ruin

Okay thanks for clarifying @RShara

Yeah, I was referring to the pure power of preservation as existing as separate being of investure. Prior the shattering, Preservation investure was just apart of Adonalsium. Hoid was alive before the intent of Preservation was assigned to the splinter of Adonalsium. Pretty much just saying Hoid was there before Preservation intent existed as it does now. So he wouldn't be a shard of preservation or "fully of preservation" as @storming lighteyes put it

No he isn't of Preservation. He was alive before The power of Preservation even existed. His inability to hurt people comes from something earlier in his history. "Hoid cannot easily kill people "because of certain things in his past." [Coppermind: Hoid] Rock blames this on the other Gods which could be true, maybe one shard took away his mental capacity to hurt people directly, but then again Rock thinks that Hoid is the god of Travel and Mischeif (which he kind of is.... maybe we should look into this more....) But- "Hoid has no issues with mentally hurting someone or through inaction."[Coppermind: Hoid] but also he knew that he couldn't actually hurt Kelsier, saying "I don't have the inclination to actually damage you". He is in fact so bad at hurting people that he can't even pull out his own tooth, making a thaylen in Kholinar do it for him.
