Hahaha, so true Yaa Damn, Brandon is really polishing up his quoteability Poor Wayne, there's no running from character development Okay, that closing scene with the investors? Gold. Pure gold. Aaaaaaaaa GODMETAL EXPERIMENTS I'm not ready for this *deep breaths* Trellium is pulling away from Investiture... hmm... All Investiture, or just Scadrian Investiture? What happens when you put too much Ettmetal in one place? Ah, it’s a Godmetal, so... Perpendicularity? Aw, Allik’s adorable, and that interaction was hilarious Hmm, he's saying the Godmetal itself cannot be divided after it's already been produced, I feel like that's been confirmed by Brandon? Or was it just him saying Godmetals that have already been produced aren't affected by anything happening to the Shard, not the same thing... I don't remember. Hmm... but this process almost worked... perhaps because Harmony is unstable? Ah, Wax thinks the same Oh my god, I swear if the chapter ends before we get to see the results- The Ghostbloods are impressed with Marasi! And of course it ended there Hmm... but the book is titled The Lost Metal I say the division was successful (mostly because I find the consequences of that... very, very interesting)

That looks majestic!

Welcome to the Shard! And more art, please!

Experiments with Godmetals, I'm so happy to see that! Cosmere spoilers Trying to divide Ettmetal into Atium and Lerasium?! Excellent, now that's the kind of thinking we like! Godmetals reacting! Oh that cliffhanger! I wonder why Harmony? wanted Wax to create a Trellium ring, does he expect him to talk to Trell?

This, I believe, is the Cognitive Shadow Kel bonding with Dox art mentioned above, enjoy!: https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/kelsier x dockson?sort=top

I just tested it, it’s still not working. There's no message saying there's an error or anything like that. It's normal, it looks like it's uploading but it just isn't, instead the... last activity seems to get refreshed (the text that says states the latest topic that I followed refreshes) Edit: it's working on my laptop. I think it's my phone's new keyboard app or something along those lines, should be fine!

A headcanon space isn't a bad idea, but I'm not sure it would work for this community, there's too much direct engagement with the author, so information & context from outside the published books is broadly available to the point that most members are gonna have trouble remembering what's from the books, what's from Brandon, what's popular theories

It's not a big problem, I guess but I can't seem to be able to upload status updates... did I hit the max limit (I did use to do this a lot, so I might have)

Welcome, from a lover of all things fantasy!

I think it has more to do with the Spiritual Realm than Breaths. It is timeless and remembers what things used to be. Even in the Cognitive Realm, objects remember who they are / were.

I think they could do it, they just don't have the requisite knowledge of biology yet

A statue would have the general shape but not the underlying skeletal and muscular structure that Kalad's Phantoms or corpses Soulcast to stone would have. Investiture can still make them move just fine. We've seen people Awaken things that then just proceeded to mimic human motion without human structure, of course those things were stuff like straw or cloth, but stone would move just fine too, it would just need a few seams, that's how the T'Telir statues moved: It being in a human shape would make it easier to Awaken, but less so than a Soulcast corpse since it would have no memory of being alive. So, it would take more Breaths, no idea how much though

I think it's because Identity is designated by Connections, that's why it's called a Spiritweb, all the Connections you have make up and define your Identity. (This is not confirmed, just a theory)

A full Mistborn with access to all the metals is strong but the Knights Radiant are far too tanky with their Shardplates and Stormlight healing, and then their's also their one-hit Shardblades. On top of all that their Surges. I won't say it's a guarantee, it isn't. Electrum, in particular, is a powerful advantage. The other temporal metals aren't as helpful in this situation. Chromium, I'm not sure if it would work, but if it does, then that gives them a leg up. But Knights Radiant have the advantage in this match-up. A Feruchemist... it would depend on their gold, steel, pewter and iron reserves. But again, the Knights Radiant have the advantage.

I wonder if there's anything cultivation-y you could learn to do with Investiture. I mean "cultivation" as in Xianxia, not the Shard Cultivation. Passive effects like the Heightenings can't be all that simply having a lot of Investiture gives you, right? Invested Arts that you can simply learn and use any Investiture for, no need for any Connections, nothing external with inherent properties like metals needed. Maybe something like the Tzai blows?

Just throwing this out there: maybe the "Cognitive Anomaly" is Painter's world? And Yumi lives on some other part of Nalthis that has a different manifestation of Investiture?... okay, yeah, that seems kinda unlikely, the sun is different, it's much hotter, there are spren like things

Iron, tin, copper, zinc, chromium, duralumin and possibly nicrosil can steal stuff from regular humans, trying to use steel would probably just be a waste. Beyond that, we don't know enough about Hemalurgy.

Invested objects resist foreign Investiture, an already Invested spike likely wouldn't be able to hold a Hemalurgic charge, that doesn't just mean it wouldn't be able to hold a charge, it wouldn't be able to steal it in the first place: that req Investiture too, and as mentioned before, anything that is already Invested would resist being Invested any further. So you'd "just" be stabbing people with an Invested object.

I think disorientation should be possible, they can probably bring more attention to pre existing wounds or ailments but I don't think they can just create sensation of pain from nothing

I disagree with Treamayne on this one. Dakhor abilities twist the soul (https://wob.coppermind.net/events/3/#e48) Hemalurgy rips and steals pieces of the Spiritweb. I think a spike is likely to steal the Dakhor bone twists and the abilities those twists granted, not just the ability to use Dakhor. The twisted bones are Dakhor, if you steal Dakhor abilities, it will twist your bones, that's how it grants its abilities. I think it should be possible to just steal the ability itself without the bone twisting: the power isn't inherent to the bone twists but coded by bone twists, but that would take more skill, and/or possibly more than Hemalurgy. Also, both the magics support strange mutations of the body just fine (Inquisitors have railroad spikes going through their eye sockets, and more running along their spine).
