All awakened objects have some sentience but the blade does not seem able to communicate meaningfully. When Nightblood is drawn all the colors deepen the same as around a 5 heightening aura. Azure's blade does not. See above.
-
Good one.
-
Has not demonstrated sapience or any of the side effects that come with being as invested as nightblood(the increased colors when drawn from example).
-
Nightblood has been drawing on different types on investiture for a good three hundred years and was created with at least a thousand breaths. Azure's sword does not seem to be sapient and is much younger.
-
-
Not sure how this is relevant. Nightblood is much older as such it is more invested and likely has a more destructive intent.
-
I would actually say no. Avatars are so separate that it is possible to ascend to just one avatar.

Killer of War!

This begs the question. Who made the blade? Azure would need the 9th heightening. The only known person around with that kind of breath is the godking and I am not sure he is going to be able to make a blade like that for someone he only met once.

Who(as far as we know) has limited access to information on/concerning Heralds. Also all of her information is secondhand. She may have stumbled across some misleading information. Hessi is likely reading information left behind by the Radiants. Remember for generations they were the only people on Roshar who had education better then the average caveman. This is likely from an earlier desolation and illustrates the danger of Sja-anat. These people got played and totally screwed over by one of her minions she was not even there! Also this is only tangentially related to the thread we should probably bring this back to relevanceville.

Only because he thinks he should that pain is optional. I seriously doubt that anyone had access to Herald's opinions. Also they have been around for so long that any fused should be able to tell you everything their is to know about any given Herald like they are writing a biography. We have no way of knowing if the unmade herself is actually present their. Also depending on stormlight amounts that Radiant's odds are not great and they have been successfully ambushed.

Big Dark Lord of Derkholm fan. Must have read it 15 times at least.

Probably even worse if you can get it to work in the first place. Good is as baddy defined as evil(if not worse) But how on earth does a blade protect someone? Destroying their opponents? Blocking every shot constantly? Side note is this worthy of my hall of theories? I don't want to make the decision as that would be unfair. It is a real theory that makes sense and will eventually be answered(Once Nightblood comes out). None of you have yet pointed out a big flaw in the theory and it is somewhat interesting. Thoughts on the matter?

Do we have a title or release date?
-
Depends on how the command was visualized. Great idea in theory. In practice how does that even work?
-
Thank you.
-
They are on his website somewhere(or were).
-
OOOOHHHH.
-
Devour and Learn? Remember shorter is generally better with commands.
-
Perhaps somthing simpler like. Learn and devour! Excellent point. We know that Nightblood will be a lifeless heavy book. Vivenna might need such a blade to defend herself.
-
Atium stores age which is related to entropy. By this logic tanvasium should store something honor related(like bonds).
-
A topic of great theorizing. The blade of highmarshal Azure. Feared by fused and giving hope to the defenders of Kholinar. How did this blade come to be? I don't have that answer but I do think I have discovered a property of this weapon. I think it drains the breath of the enemies it slays... Think about it. Kaladin reports that the ones it cuts turn grey instead of having their eyelids burned out like he expects. This is the same thing that happens to cloth if you store breath in it then take it out. The fused fear it. Perhaps it can remove that which gives them persistent life. Nightblood also drains investiture so this is a property of awakened swords.

Stupid spell check!

Considering who she eventually ended up married to(and I find myself doubting that she had much of a choice in the matter) I doubt she could have done much better. Also we don't know if she would descend rank. Perhaps the legal codes would have let her keep running the land anyway. They are likely trying to prevent the humans from feeling like they have nothing to loose. If they did they would kill the parshemen who they greatly outnumber and that would cause problems. Roshar does not really have seasons. Planing and harvesting seem to happen year round.
