    This Pokémon has a terrible ability.

    Marowak.
  3. NameIess
    Snorlax?
  4. NameIess
    Drifloon?
  5. NameIess
    Good guess, but no. He was actually someone else.
  6. NameIess
    Misdreavus?
  7. NameIess
    He looked quite different than you’d expect. In fact, you could tell just by looking at him that he hated cooking.

    Surprisingly, it wasn’t Platypus who held Plot’s sword. It was, in fact, someone else. @Being of Cacophony

    Ravelast: Sixth Archive Gateway “I’ll stay and guard the camp. Unless the Aes Sedai here wants to go.” Nameless sat back against a tree across from Rue, still glaring at her. @Aes Sedai @InfiniteInsanity

    Klave approached the group, a relaxed smile on his scarred face. “Hello there. I got here a bit late, and you were all busy, so I figured I’d just start exterminating those things. Are we finished for now?”
  11. NameIess
    Ravelast: Sixth Archive Gateway Nameless snorted. “I’d be surprised if you could learn an area well enough to Travel in under an hour.” @Aes Sedai

    Klave nodded slowly. “Yes. We killed them. Not entirely, but we decimated their population. Those that remain don’t have access to the magic they used to.”
  13. NameIess
    Ravelast: Sixth Archive Gateway Nameless glared at Rue. “I am no weapon, Aes Sedai. And no, you can’t travel as well as me. I can learn an area faster than almost any man in the Tower.” @Aes Sedai

    But in the end, the Infinity Machine won, and TLT was saved.

    Ravelast: Sixth Archive Gateway Nameless folded his arms. “You think I’m incapable of working with you? Well, I should be part of the search party, since I can travel more easily than you. And because I’m trained to use the power as a weapon, if something goes wrong.” @Aes Sedai @InfiniteInsanity
  16. NameIess
    Would it? We don’t know the effects of long-term storing at that level. We do know that it makes your muscles weaker, but it does still make climbing a ladder easier, so there would be at least some degradation of muscles. And walking and running would still be a pain. Coinshots are a much easier and more efficient option.
  17. NameIess
    It had accidentally killed them.
  18. NameIess
    Ravelast: Sixth Archive Gateway “I guess that did happen.” Nameless sighed, looking off into the forest. “Now that you’re awake, do you know any weaves for finding people?” @Aes Sedai @InfiniteInsanity
  19. NameIess
    Ravelast: Sixth Archive Gateway "Nothing happened.” Nameless shivered as goosebumps formed on his skin. That settles it. She’s got a ter’angreal for certain. @Aes Sedai

    Without the intervention of the fiddling Infinity Machine, it would have created a rebellion among the Narrator's laundry that would have destroyed TLT as we know it.
  21. NameIess
    Right. Still, hiring for a normal job is different from hiring them to go around at 25% weight all the time. Walking would suck. Running could be impossible. It would probably have serious effects on bone density, your muscles might atrophy, who knows what other health affects it might have. So yeah, they're probably using teams of Coinshots and Lurchers to make power. That would definitely work, especially with Nicrobursts to help, and wouldn't require paying employees for 98 hours of work per week because of constant storing. Just 4 six-hour shifts, with 6-8 different teams of 3-6 allomancers to allow for days off and have backup workers, so 48 allomancers at most.

    Evil of the deadly...
  23. NameIess
    I'm not very well versed in energy production, but wouldn't you still lose lots of energy? Power plants aren't very efficient, from what I understand. Feruchemists are rarer than Allomancers, and hiring someone to do a 9-5 job in which they use their powers normally at no harm to their quality of life is very different from hiring them to dramatically decrease their quality of life for every waking moment. You'd have to pay me a lot of money to do something like that. There aren't that many people to call in, and they'd have to have stores on hand. All in all, I'd say that even if this works, it'd probably be easier to use harmonium tech to make a push/pull powered generator. Scadrians have only just started using electricity, and I'm sure someone will figure out ways to do this kind of thing in time. (Actually, unless I'm missing something we haven't been told how they're generating electricity, so they could actually be using your method, if the math works out)
  24. NameIess
    Diminishing returns is definitely going to have a major impact on that. I'd be surprised if they could even get an hours time weighing that much. Even after that, you'd still lose energy to friction and whatnot. And there's still the issue of finding 30 feruchemists willing to stay at 25% of their weight for every waking moment, 365 days a year, and then paying them. And what happens if one of them dies, or doesn't show up for their shift? This really isn't practical on a large scale.

    Then it started punishing evil people.
