  1. thanks! how did I miss that? To the Edit-mobile!
  2. Edgedancer SA Mistborn Warbreaker
  3. Has anyone considered the possibility that The Lord Ruler knew all about this, and used it as another limitation on the inquisitors abilities?
  4. Is defending Moash Sympathizers going to become the next meme that replaces hating on Moash sympathizers?
  5. Harmony, while holding two full shards didn't seem to know much about the cosmere. He even mispronounces Adonalsium. perhaps over time, he learnd more as he searches through the history of the power, but merely holding the shards does not seem to grant him an innate knowledge of the cosmere.
  6. Sazed and Jasnah both extremely wise and knowledgeable scholars with widely different beliefs. I would love to see a religious debate between these two.
  7. The Coppermind has lied to me!!!
  8. I'm pretty sure that the Cosmere is an entire universe similar to our own. However, all of the Cosmere stories are happening within the same dwarf galaxy. The Cosmere itself is not a star cluster.
  9. I think that the most entertaining and re-watchable movie is Thor Ragnarok. however, I think that the best MCU movie is Infinity war.
  10. I think that the closest being in the Cosmere to a god by my definition, is Harmony. He knows what it truly is to be a god seeing as how he has studied religions for his entire mortal existence. He also actually cares about being the best deity that he can be, which sets him apart from other shards we've met so far.
  11. think of it like the visible light spectrum. Lets say that Adonolsium is a being that controls light. If seven people come and kill him, each would recieve one color: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. Adonolsium was a being that controlled investiture, and when he was killed, his investiture got devided between sixteen people. All of the investiture that was used to preserve anything, went to Laras, and all of the investiture that is used to destroy things went to Ati. Same with all of the other shards.
  12. It was Adonalsium's investiture. Before the shattering, all investiture belonged to Adonolsium, and it wasn't split between different beings.
  13. What on Roshar am I looking at!?
  14. The Purelake has always reminded me of Utah lake. Being a large lake that is shockingly shallow all the way across.
  15. No offence, but why are you even here?
  16. I suppose you could say it's the third element of makeup in the Cosmere. In our universe, there are two elements of makeup: matter and energy. Investiture "came from" Adonolsium. or rather, Adonolsium was all of the investiture in the Cosmere. when he was shattered, the sixteen individuals who killed him took up the investiture for themselves. (I am no expert so I could be getting some of this stuff wrong) here is the coppermind page for investiture: https://coppermind.net/wiki/Investiture
  17. Please post your unpopular opinions of Brandon Sanderson's books here. Please try not to get into debates. Mistborn era 2 is better than era 1. Jasnah is overpowered and unintirestingly perfect. she is to good at everything, and has no flaws at all. This makes her boring.
  18. Mistborn is far superior to Stormlight Archive.
  19. Captain Marvel was fine. I'd put it on the same level as The First Avenger. there were some great performances and some funny moments. but overall, the movie felt flat to me. Brie Larson's performance as Carol Danvers felt completely devoid of emotion and has an utter lack of character development. which is strange considering the action sequences and fight scenes were confusing, usually being too dark and/or dusty to tell what was happening, and the cinematography was bad. For example, The CGI wasn't very good, and there were some utterly atrocious greenscreen moments, but Marvel isn't exactly known for their amazing special effects, so that didn't really matter to me. Samuel L Jackson did a great performance as nick fury, but the story itself kind of butchers his character. I had many more issues with the movie, and only have time to write about these few. However, I still found the movie fairly enjoyable. Although admittedly, when I was watching the film it felt more like I was watching a really good, high budget fan film than anything else.
  20. What if... Breeze is a worldhopper! "X-Files theme plays"
  21. Not necessarily. it is entirely possible, even extremely likely that someone would give their breath to there children while on their deathbed. everybody in the world could stop giving their breaths up, and all the drabs could magically get their breath back, and there would still be plenty of awakeners. The lifeless have SOME level of self-awareness. The sentience that they have is more of a memory of being alive than actually being living and feeling. they can't feel pain, nor do they care about the fact that they are slaves or even their own death. I fail to see what's wrong with making them slaves. I'm sorry, but I can't get around the idea that you think awakening is worse than hemalargy. First of all, you claim that it requires very few people. this is true for the inquisitors. but what about the Koloss, or even the Kandra. there are several armies of thousands of Koloss, and each one involves killing four people and turning one living, breathing, thinking human into a monstrosity against their will, that wants nothing more than to kill and destroy. there are several hundred Kandra, and each one has two spikes. Secondly, hemalurgy involves directly, brutally killing people, ripping their souls out against their will, and stabbing someone else with the very same spike you used to brutally kill someone else. which do you think sounds worse: a large group of people willingly weakening their immune system so that they can feed their families, in the process creating a non-sentient, yet efficient working class and army to protect your nation. Or brutely murdering hundreds of thousands of people, ripping out parts of their soul against there will, and then using that to create an army of monstrosities who want nothing more than to free themselves so that they can kill and destroy as much as they can?
