  1. The inhuman shapes are known as Stormstriders. Unfortunately, we know almost nothing about them. This is the only thing the coppermind has on them, and it can only be found under the "spren" category. Also, Hoid doesn't say that he has never told the story, he says that he has never sung the story before.
  2. Adolin dueled 4 Shardbearers. Relis, Elit, Abrobadar, and Jakamav. Relis - Shardblade, Shardplate Elit - Shardplate(borrowed), Shardhammer Abrobadar - Shardblade, Shardplate Jakamav - Shardblade (borrowed), Shardplate This means that when Adolin won, he gained 2 Shardblades and 3 suits of Shardplate. He just won two sets of Shards and an additional Shardblade. When Kaladin is released from prison, Adolin says This should mean that the only thing left is a Shardblade, but apparently, there is still another suit left, because Adolin tries to give it to Kaladin. What am I missing, or is this a continuity error?
  3. I can’t find it in Arcanum, so I am going to paraphrase what Brandon said. ”In the Cosmere, almost anything is possible, but some things would require so much effort and resources that it wouldn’t be practical to do in any situation.”
  4. I love the new profile picture!

      It was! That's what this is from.

      It's funny, because I identify people as much by their profile picture as I do by their name. I kept seeing this "new person" posting in all kinds of places. I clicked on them, to see how long they had been a member, but it was you!

      Lol, understandable!

  5. Well, maybe. Ene posted their’s in this thread, but idk.
  6. @AonEne inspired a new type of meme. Dalinar: Where does a child hide in a small town like this? Kaladin: Does Lift really qualify as a child? Lift: I sure do, I’m only this many! *Holds up 10 fingers* Kaladin: You said you were older then that when you went on the roller coaster Kaladin: Why are you poking me? Hoid: I have access to Fortune, which tells me what to do, but not why. The mystical forces of the universe told me to poke you. Kaladin: You are just bored, aren’t you? Radiant:Find some proof that she did it Veil: We don’t need proof, I know she did it Radiant: I don’t care, we need a confession Shallan: I didn’t do it Radiant: Then who ate the last cookie?!? Huh, this was harder than it looks. You have to come up with realistic dialogue, that is funny, but fits with the character’s personalities.
  7. I petition that this be changed to an official title. I propose that this title be the “Director of Organization and Order”
  8. @Dannex Any update on what theme we are supposed to use?
  9. These memes are great! The theme was good, the results were better! @Dannex got an idea for the theme of the next round?
  10. Ene, as a moderator, could you give more than 1 rep to a single post? I know that you would NEVER abuse powers like that, such as making millions of people vote for you as their favorite on a survey, but do you have the ability to do it?
  11. That is fine! I’m also doing this post so you don’t have to double post.
  12. So, I didn’t want to double post, but @Dannex, have you made a decision?
  13. That would be funny, if you got tons of rep for our memes.
  14. The fact that Kelsier gained that Shard after riding Frost to pick up Stick, then swallowing Stick at if it were a metal. Pure genius.
  15. Welcome! What is your favorite Cosmere book? Also, you accidentally posted this thread, not twice, but three times!! I am actually impressed. Most people accidentally double post. You can remove the other ones by clicking moderation/options (I can’t remember which). Then you will click hide from the drop-down
  16. The first three Stormlight Archive books
  17. Full Feruchemist. One hundred percent. I mourn everyday that I am not one already. Whenever I am sitting around and doing something by that doesn’t require an attribute, I think “Sazed could do this so much better than me.” I want to be a feruchemist. Please.
  18. I have been a member of the Shard for:

    63,072,000 seconds

    1,051,200 minutes

    17,520 hours

    730 days

    104.2875 weeks

    Or, to say it in other words, I have been a member of the Shard for 2 years.

    I don't know if I am supposed to have some really in-depth message or profound insights. It is tradition to do stuff like that for things like the 1,000th post, 2,000th, and so on. I was going to ping a bunch of names, but it wouldn't let me do more than 2 for some reason.

    Now, I haven't been active on the Shard for all these two years. I was active for the first month, but then I stopped for almost a year. It wasn't until mid-August of 2020 that I returned to the Shard. I first fell in with "The Fellowship of the Thing". This was Fadran, Connie, Ene, Mist, Vapor, Queen, etc. I met them before they became the gods that they are now. I talked to them some and made posts in forums all over the Shard. I contributed occasionally to tFotT as Chinkoln the strange and powerful otter, but mainly I did posts dealing with cosmere theory and in-depth realmatics, stuff like that. It is more my forte, and I have spent way too much time reading all the WoB's and Coppermind pages. 

    I did this for a while. During my first month, I had gained about 20 reputation. When I rejoined, I was amazed at the amount of reputation that some people had amassed during 1 week. I, in my dumbstruck amazement, PMed Karger and literally asked how I could get more rep. I was kindly told that in order to get rep I just needed to be an active, positive member of the community. I decided to do just that. I got several hundred rep with my theory posts, but it was over the course of a few months. In late December through mid-January I realized that if I wanted to get a lot of reputation, I needed something else. I started posting in the meme threads. It took some build-up, and the first few days I wasn't very good. I got some reputation, and that motivated me. I made memes when I got an idea so that I didn't forget. After some effort, I managed to win my first day! Then, to my surprise, I won my second day! And then my third day! My first three days were three consecutive days!!!! I couldn't believe how quickly my reputation titles were changing!

    Well, I still post memes sometimes when I think of stuff. I have started to transition back to theories, but I have also been drawn into some forum games such as "Guess That Cosmere Character" and "Synonym Game". Well, this has been my journey on the Shard! I wish I could ping a bunch of people, and give them all special messages, but it doesn't work for me.<_<  

    I also recently discovered how to use those emoji things.

    I have loved the Shard and everything on here. It is such an amazing community and has such amazing individuals. Chaos recently said that being a moderator is a thankless job. Thank you Chaos, Ene, Stink, Overlord Jebus, WeiryWriter, Paleo, Argent, FeatherWriter, Jofwu, Lady Lameness, and little wilson!!! I know that there are many other amazing staff and moderators, but there are just the ones I have seen active most recently. Thank you for everything you do!!! I love the Shard!!!

      If there are three different plotlines, how do I indicate which one I am talking to?

      They're all in a different place and with different people.

      Happy Shardiversary!

  19. What are you talking about?!?! This is awesome! I loved it! A truly creative work of art!
  20. I have thought about this one. The requirement for this to work would be that the entire body is affected by the push. If just the core of your body, or something like that is affected then the blood will rush to your head. An example from Stormlight Archive(not RoW)
  21. Ok, so, I sent my meme to Connie in a PM a few days ago, but it says that she still hasnt opened the PM.
  22. Remove
  23. I kind of do. For example, when I picture the letter “e” in my head, it is orange. W is blue. X is red. L is green. I don’t know why, but that is how my mind always envisions them.
