    Woops. Fixed it.

    But Pcat wasn't in time to stop the skeleton from being slobbered over. The dogs looked at him with innocent eyes and wagging tails, bones scattered at their feet. "It's her life in the sense that's it's her soul, her identity, and her mind. It's still connected to her body, or else she would be dead, which would be fairly obvious."

    "Well, no. But that's because I have it sealed. So that holding it didn't let you see all of Moni's thoughts, emotions, and memories, and manipulate them. If I remove that, I should be able to figure out where Moni is. I just need your help to do that safely."

    Moni glared back at him angrily. "Exactly what you'd think? I should be able to use it to find Moni, even if she's being hidden by the mimes."

    471a. Be aware that any tidbit or grand statement could be the end, so write down none of your secret knowledge until you want to die.

    "Well I like neither of them." Nameless coughed uncomfortably. "It's, um, Moni's life."

    Unfortunately, it had landed in the middle of a pack of doggos.

    Actually, I could see that as being a specifically Taln thing. With access to unlimited stormlight from Honor, he wouldn't have to care about it using an inordinate amount of stormlight, and with thousands of years of experience he has the skill/reflexes to use the ability properly, and the impetus to learn to use it, because he doesn't get Shardplate.

    I could swear I saw a WoB somewhere about different surges having different levels of difficulty affecting investiture, and cohesion/tension being on the lower end, where it was extremely difficult to affect anything invested with it. I haven't been able to find it though. Edit- The coppermind source that @Tamriel Wolfsbaine referenced was that WoB:

    It would likely be much easier and safer to simply harden your shirt. You could also just raise stone up in front of you. That way you actually protect the people around you. Or you could use a shield. Or you could harden your clothes.
  11. NameIess
    Well, Taln was known for doing that, not the Stonewards. Although they did take after him. It is possible that they could do it for short periods, such as right before they get hit by a weapon, but I doubt they could just make themselves invulnerable to anything short of a shardblade with no consequences. They could, however, make the ground liquid under their opponent's feet, the solidify it, form weapons out of stone, make instant high ground/fortifications, etc., so I don't think Stonewards (or Taln) need to be able to make themselves invulnerable to have the reputation that they do.

    Kaladin also lashes other people all the time. But yeah, I get your point. It is entirely possible that a Radaint or Herald could use their surge on themselves. However, the fact remains that from what we've seen, they can only either make things more malleable or less malleable. Making themselves as strong as steel would likely also immobilize them. It would be much easier to wear cloth armor that you can harden at will. And a fullborn is probably strong enough to kill a Radiant even when they are as durable as they can be without killing themselves.

    The Witherlord was so stunned that it took him an entire 15 seconds to realize that the skeleton was actually attacking him. Then he grabbed the Skeleton with vines and threw him seventeen miles.

    That's a cool idea, but I don't think it would work, for two reasons. The first is that Tension and Cohesion might not work on humans without extreme difficulty. There is variance in how easily surges can overcome the investiture inherent in people. Lashings, for example, can easily lash uninvested people, and even invested people, although that requires a larger amount of stormlight. On the other hand, A-steel and A-iron are so highly resisted by investiture that most Allomancers assume it is impossible to affect metal that is embedded in someone's body. From a narrative standpoint, I would guess that tension and cohesion are going to be bad at affecting invested objects. Stonewards aren't commonly known for dissolving the enemy or turning them to stone, after all. Second, I don't think that making your body as strong and inflexible as steel would have a very good effect on your vital organs or movement. It would be much easier to harden your clothes instead.

    Nameless stared at the coin. It looked pretty tasty.
  16. NameIess
    Nameless inspected the coin curiously, tucking it into his pocket.
  17. NameIess
    "Oh, sorry. Well, in that case, you should try and learn more about the Witherlord."
  18. NameIess
    "Yeah? I bet X thought that too. I think you can help kill the Witherlord, really, I do. But running in without a plan won't accomplish anything. We need to be prepared. We need to talk to people who more about the Witherlord, and figure out what weaknesses we can manipulate."
  19. NameIess
    Nameless shook his head. "I really don't think it's going to work, but good luck. I'll be there to help as soon as possible."
  20. NameIess
    Nameless shrugged. "They all do that. Or, well, some of them do. Besides, there was never any risk of reality being destroyed or anything, I would've dealt with it if there was a problem."
  21. NameIess
    Nameless looked at the spot where the tear used to exist. "But professor Jones fixed that. Besides, it was just a break in the fourth wall. Not a big deal. Happens all the time."
  22. NameIess
    Compounding covers that. Yes, F-nicrosil is like F-copper, but we don't even know what compounding F-copper does, and I'm liable to believe that it doesn't just copy the memories, but makes them more powerful and clearer.
  23. NameIess
    Yes, Miles didn't need large stores, but neither did the bands. They weren't large. And Kelsier didn't need to tap nicrosil in order to amp his allomancy, except when he was storing F-nicrosil. Additionally, he had A-duraluminum to speed up his compounding. A slow burn let Miles be constantly healing at an insane rate, so duraluminum flaring a large chunk of metal should give an absurd amount of an attribute. Also, how do we know that compounding isn't multiplicative? Do you have a WoB on that or something?
  24. NameIess
    Miles was able to constantly tap enough healing to survive any injury. Compounding is extremely fast. I doubt it took more than a few days at most to make the bands.
  25. NameIess
    Nameless looked at them warily. "Why am I causing problems exactly?"
