  1. Nope, not Yolen Hoid has been here This place has rather unique mists
  2. Sweet. Hoid has been here
  3. That is most certainly more likely than the initial option 2.
  4. And the fact that you've gotten 2 upvotes in 14 minutes on that post has no bearing on your position And let's not forget that time you got 15 for saying the sky is blue, though I will admit to slightly manipulating that one.
  5. Isek looked down at the ore, metal the same elemental power that suffused his being. Death said to place the ore on the alter to forge it, but perhaps instead, he could reforge himself.
  6. Tathingdwen?
  7. She knows.... And gave you $65 dollars to do math homework? Can I adopt your sister?
  8. Things that get you upvotes: Memes Quality posts Being funny Being @Channelknight Fadran Status updates Being on a long time Things you need upvotes for: Having a cool name I guess, there's really nothing special
  9. Exactly, not every instance of those colors being used together is Connected. I think Brandon just likes them, because even Lightsongs official colors are gold and red
  10. Ha ha Arcanum rabbit hole go brrrrrrrr

      Storm you

      I like almost all these theories.

      Me: Ah, I'm bored, nothing is being posted, I'll find a random page in the arcanum and start reading

      Also me three days later realizing I've made eight threads.

      Thaidakar the Ghostblood

      hah

      I'll read through them sometime.

  11. What's Spain doing? I also was not expecting South America be that interested.
  12. Yes, but then why is Sazed knowing that full feruchemists breading with the population is dangerous listed as a reason that full feruchemists aren't born anymore?
  13. That's basically the same thing the Lord Ruler did when he made every living feruchemist into a mistwraith, and as we saw then that isn't enough to cause the power to split into ferrings.
  14. I think it would be better to have separate arrows in that case. As silver is detectable with invested means.
  15. So I found a few WoBs And together they tell a story. Sazed has been intentionally preventing full feruchemists and Mistborn from being born. Now the question becomes why, and I have two possible theories. 1. He's scared of another Lord Ruler. With both powers occuring it was incredibly unlikely, but given enough time a statistical certainty that another Fullborn would be born, and Sazed knows the problems that caused and wants to avoid them. 2. Sazed wants people to develop medallion technology, and believes that without limiting their powers they never would. Now I believe that number 1 is the much likelier option, but I felt like I'd list both.
  16. Sorry for bringing this back up, but I found a WoB relevant to this
  17. So with the reveal in the SA 5 sample chapters that Urithiru not only suppresses fused abilities, and has a ton of useful day to day functions, but makes using stormlight unbelievably efficient, or possibly replenishes it as it's used. It got me thinking. The Stormfather has the Highstorm, which provides endless Stormlight, creates crem, and is able to sustain itself forever. The Sibling has Urithiru, which makes active stormlight last forever, provides heat, water, light and pressure, and suppresses Fused abilities. And then there's the Nightwatcher, who has to fit into this somehow. And the only location I can think of, is the Valley. So, the question remains: What does the Valley do? And how is Surgebinding different inside of it. Unfortunately we lack the ability to draw any conclusions, but there is some room for speculation. If the Stormfather provides infinate stormlight, and the Sibling allows it to be used forever, it stands to reason that The Nightwatcher would make it more powerful. But anyway what affect on Surgebinding do you think that the Valley would have?
  18. Welcome to Frustration's Firepower Index, a collection of threads where I compare and rank various Cosmere world's and magic systems. This thread will focus on the Edgedancers. Preparation: Be a Warform singer, and a fifth Oath Edgedanncer. Say the fourth oath near Lasting Integrety where your plate will be made from the larger lifespren that live there(Assuming lifespren make Edgedanncer plate) (RoW Page 859 chapter 75). Next collect seeds from vinebuds from the shattered plains (https://coppermind.net/wiki/Words_of_Radiance/Interior_art#/media/File:Chasmlife.jpeg) and some rockbud seeds( OB page 701 says they grow as large as an Alethi man's waist and have vines as thick as Dalinar's wrist. Don't have the chapter number). And seeds from some smaller rockbud varieties. Then given that evolution happens faster in the cosmere Selectively breed the plants to grow around things they touch, rather than recoiling from them. Next select the vinebuds and large rockbuds to will wrap around something and constrict, the vinebud grip will be rather tight given the elasticity that Shallan mentioned. The smaller rockbuds will be selectively bred to dig into living flesh and bone instead of the stone they normally do, and to extend their vines to grab on to others. Additionally carry a Shardbow with aluminum arrows. Offenses: Shardplate grants increadible strength, adding to Warforms already impressive physical might. Shardblades can cut through almost anything, and can form any needed weapon or tool. Shardbows can fire increadibly high powered projectiles, who's aluminum nature allows them to get through several forms of invested defenses. Additionally the smaller rockbuds that are grown to dig into flesh can be quite deadly if they hit a target. Defenses: Shardplate protects the wearer, giving them increadible durability, and resistance to most forms of damage. Additionally with Abrasion they can cause their opponents weapons to slide off of them. Additionally with Stormlight they can heal from most forms of damage, which is boosted by their access to regrowth. And if they desired they could use vines to block projectiles, or other attacks. Mobility: With Abrasion Edgedanncers can increase in speed, without reguard for air resistance, or friction. And with shardblades they can cut their way through most physical barriers, and they can use vinebuds to move themselves up and down steep inclines. Stealth: Plate can be commanded to hide its glow, and spren can investigate places invisibly unless the dust they leave behind is noticed, but when using their powers they are highly visible. However they can use plants and foliage to hide themselves. Awareness: Spren can search places invisibly while also overhearing conversations, and being able to detect vibrations on the floor to tell when people are coming(WoR 690, Lifts Interlude). Extra abilities: Progression allows them to grow any plant that their light touches in the way that they want(WoR 686, Lift's interlude), they can throw a handfull of the seeds described above at an opponent, and then grow them into a massive net, that constricts upon, and imobilizes their target, while they move towards them unecombered due to Abrasion. As always what do you think? Did I miss anything? And what should I work on next?
  19. Stormlight isn't easier to use it's just easier and safer to get, especially in large quantities. The dor can only be collected by going into a plasma storm that's dangerous even for Hoid, stormlight is basically free.
  20. You can do direct translations. I've done it in the past.
  21. Szeth didn't get his spren until his third, which was considered normal for them. I suppose normal for all orders is a bit of a stretch, but it is possible to do.
