Certainly, he isn't alone in being Splintered fully. But it's still very possible that Odium's Shard-killing strategies all fall into a similar vein of "get the Vessel to make a decision that feels aligned with their Intent at first, but ultimately contradicts it".

hmm... If there was some way to extract energy from the investiture, then you might be able to condense it to liquid form and then freeze it solid. I'm thinking something to do with the Shard's Tone and rhythm might be neccessary... maybe if you're able to trap it in isolation (like Navani did to Voidlight to make Anti-voidlight) and use a slightly lower-pitched and slower version of the Shard's "song", you might be able to force the investiture to drop into a lower energy state?? I'm trying to remember the real world analog of what i'm thinking of, some kind of refrigeration using lasers or something? but this would be the sound equivalent for the investiture...

discuss It's not Perfect Color Pitch, but Realtive
Halyo_Alex replied to miqius's topic in Cosmere Discussion
This is correct. I mean, imagine if everything that reflected red and blue light looked green, when every single photosynthetic plant ALREADY reflects green light. It'd just blend right in. Hence, magenta. Which is what we perceive as the "opposite" of green. Anti-green, if you will.- 16 replies

Dread in Brandon's books, or lack thereof

To be fair, I've never been in florida, so I mostly know about the gator memes. Nice.- 18 replies

Fun side note: Aon Ire means "time, age". So the Ire being a group of elantrians who have managed to escape Sel's CR probably feel a bit like time travellers...

dawnshard Let's make groups of four, RoW edition
Halyo_Alex replied to mathiau's topic in Cosmere Discussion
Indeed, it seems he's saying all 3 are external. They're about doing their Intent's act to other people, not themselves. That's true. Hence why Diminish or Reduce would probably just be Ruin's particular flavor of Change. -

Halyo_Alex replied to mathiau's topic in Cosmere Discussion
Okay, then instead of "destroy" as a dawnshard, how about "Reduce"? That does kind of feel like a subset of Change though... Dangit. -
These WoBs make me feel like the 10 orders have like... different "isotopes" of Tanavastium + Koravellium alloy. Maybe different Allotropes. (Phosphor irl is fairly well-known for having a couple noteworthy allotropes, check them out, it's cool)

"They did many crusades, some of which almost didn't fail." I can't not think of that bit every time I read Crusade. Devotion + Dominion (properly) could be interesting to guess at, maybe something like... Oh, what's the dang word. Not nationality, but the word that usually applies to how Americans are proud to be americans. There's a single word that's defined as something like that but it escapes my mind at the moment.

r/ghostbloods sounds like a fun side project I'd join that.

Also interesting is that she seems to perceive the metal like a Shard (at least R/P) does. Glowing energy. Either that's what happens when you push Metalsight to its limits, beyond even the "see the iron in your blood" of inquisitors, or the Bands are genuinely approaching the power level of Ascending like with the Well.

Aon Ire also means "Time, Age". It was there all along.

Also, POOR SPREN??? Like you're basically cutting off a person's arm and eating it. You freak.

It always reminds me of Syl's complaint about someone using a dead shardblade, except funny and lighthearted because adolin wouldn't be, yknow, dead.

the main issue with that is that your bones produce fresh blood, so if you fully encased them you'd just... run out of blood. Best to wait until Era 4 and get some kind of micromesh that blood can fit through.
