  1. Man walks into Azish clinic, says he's disillusioned with the world.

    He says the world is an empty place, with no interesting or original stories.

    Azish doctor says "Treatment is simple. Go see the great Worldsinger Pagliacci. He will make you feel better."

    The man bursts into tears. "But, doctor" He says, "I am Pagliacci."

  2. Sorry if there is some obvious answer I'm missing but in regards to the letters that appear in Oathbringer between Hoid, Frost and Harmony, how are the letters being exchanged?
  3. Nightblood's function is to Destroy Evil. So if it were to be held by Hoid what would be considered evil?
  4. ........... Is a Shard....... A Stick however.......
  5. This could be an interesting gateway to discuss philosophical discussions such as free will and 'what makes us human?' in regards to forging a soul. Another point of discussions could be how our subjective perceptions influence our objective realities in literal and metaphorical ways.
  6. I have a theory. Colour is a part of the electromagnetic spectrum. (Wikipedia link here.) So could other parts of the electromagnetic spectrum be used as fuel?
  7. The Gormenghast trilogy by Mervyn Peake. I highly recommend it.
  8. A Cosmic Horror about an enslaved people whose very sentience depends on the whims of their Eldritch horror overlords, beings so vast and powerful they hardly notice the plight of their fanatic servants. Witness a tale of existential dread with a cast of haunted characters in...
  9. You've developed a rather unique story here, well done! Are there any specific themes or philosophies you'd be exploring within this story? If there is a Hell then does that suggest there is a Heaven as well?
  10. Awesome, it's cool to know you practice HEMA(lurgy).
  11. "My name is Kaladin Stormblessed, Knight Radiant of the Windrunners, Leader of Bridge Four, loyal servant to the true Bright Lord, Dalinar Kholin. Brother to a murdered brother, Captain to a murdered squad. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next."
  12. Kelsier: I am Hope. Dalinar: I am Unity. Batman: I am Batman.
  13. Was it immoral for Vin to dominate the Koloss considering it's so similar to what the Noblemen did to the Skaa?
  14. I enjoyed the story a lot. Well paced and full of tension. There are a couple of spelling errors here and there. Elandera makes a lot of good suggestions. Excellent work!
  15. Elend: I don't like ash. It's rough and course, and it stains everything.
  16. I'm developing a magic system that relates to the manipulation of the four fundamental forces of the universe/nature: gravity, electromagnetism, weak force and strong force. I'm trying to come up with a name for this magic. Any suggestions?
  17. Infinity War was meh and Thanos was... problematic. I like the Watchmen comic ending. I enjoy Batman and Robin more than the Burton Batman films. The Star Wars Prequels have a more interesting story than the Originals. Though flawed, the Last Jedi has some interesting stuff in it. I don't particularly like The Name of the Wind. Shallan + Kaladin never felt convincing to me. WoR and OB spoiler: And finally (deep breath)... Balrogs have wings.
  18. Let's pretend Middle-Earth/Arda resides in the cosmere. How would it all fit in with Brandon's word? Just a silly little idea. List any connections you can think of! I'll get the ball rolling. Hoid = Tom Bombadil Perpendicularity = Mount Doom Splinter = The One Ring (Which also allows travel into the Cognitive Realm) Cognitive Shadow = Ringwraith Servants of Shard (like a Kandra or Spren): Istari (wizards) Sliver: Maiar (Balrog, Sauron, Valar, Wizards) Shard: Eru Illuvatar?
