I'm fairly certain that they're immune or highly resistant to most poisons, going off the fact that the injection thing in Shadows of Self that temporarily stuns a kandra straight up kills normal people.

I think they might just be carrying something with horns?

I'm going to watch the show before making a judgement. Maybe it'll be awful, but I haven't seen anything absolutely horrible (besides female dwarves no having beards of course) and I have seen some things that seem like good signs.

Apparently this show is going to be appropriate for 12-yearolds, so hopefully sex scenes are off the table.

No, they had a tank thing too. -

I would rather go all white text. -
Can you think of a way that Doomslug in live action would not look terrible? How did you find out about Brandon Sanderson? How did you discover the 17th Shard? Favorite movie? Favorite tv show? Favorite video game? Yes sports or no sports? Favorite book? Favorite Sanderson book/non-Sanderson book? (depending on whether your favorite overall is Sanderson or not) Lighteyes or darkeyes? Favorite Sanderson character? Want more questions?

I nominate anyone who'll get rid of the blue text. It hurts my eyes.

Sanderson "Would you Rather"
NameIess replied to KnightRadiant's topic in Forum Games & Random Stuff
Definitely an epic. Sure, I might end up as that one epic who has the power to make grass grow 0.1 times slower, but I also might end up with a cool power. Anything's better than going insane learning book cataloging skills. WYR be a Lybrarian or a Listener?- 954 replies

Definitely the Ghostbloods. The Ire seems like they're a bunch of elantrians with servants. Ghostbloods might be a little evil, but at least I can work my way up. WYR be soulcasted into fire or stone?- 954 replies

Yeah, they probably have microscopes, but can you even see blood types in a microscope? I don't know.

If Wax could react to bullets, his bubble thing would be useless. He has to push before he gets shot at to block bullets. Scadrial is where they are because they were handed tech by Harmony. He basically told them how to make just about everything that they have. Saying that a flying airship is just a spanreed is like saying an airplane is just an engine. Roshar is advancing very fast on multiple fronts. Fabrials have gone from exclusive to the very rich to widely available. Yes, the current major developments focus on conjoined fabrials and tones, but those are both major breakthroughs. Anti light brings the potential for high-yield explosives, and especially with the different-sized gem breakthrough, fabrial jets seem more likely than ever. Roshar is advancing very fast, even if you ignore the magical applications of their tech and look only at the mundane.

No. That game is the wrong kind of difficulty. I don't want to abuse save states and die a million times in each dungeon. I'll think about it, but if I end up buying anything, it'll probably be a Switch.

I think she would. Even Miles would have felt pain if he hadn't lost his sense of it. He at least noticed that he was injured briefly. That is true, but as of BoM, north Scadrial at least has barely any weapons and is stagnating in their tech tree. South Scadrial does have city-killing bombs and seem to be fairly militaristic, or at least some of them are, and we don't know enough to know how quickly their tech is advancing, although we have no reason to assume that it is stagnating like north Scadrial. However, whatever level of technology increase they have is nothing compared to Roshar. Books one through five are about 10-20 years before Era 2 starts, and in the space of a couple of years Rosharan magictech has gone from basic modern fabrial science to flying airships and breakthroughs in science that not even Khriss had figured out. Scadrial is going to need that tech advantage, because once Rosharans figure out how to get investiture offworld, power suppressors will ensure that technology is all that they get. Or maybe not, this is all mostly baseless speculation. However, this thread is about pitting a fullborn against a fourth ideal radiant, and I think we've mostly agreed that a radiant's only chance involves trickery, surprise, luck, deception, overwhelming numbers, or a bondsmith. Or some other similar massive advantage. That said, theorizing about the potential power balance between Roshar and Scadrial is fun. Who's ready for Scadrial versus Roshar post TLM?

Well, I beat Skyward Sword, (the original, not the HD version, no switch). Once I got used to the motion controls, it was a really fun game. My one complaint is that it was a bit too easy, in particular I really wish the final boss had a third phase. I guess hero mode is an option, but I'm not sure if I want to slog through all the puzzles again. I kinda wish they let you choose difficulty levels before starting the game. Anyways, I have now beaten the two first Zelda games, the original LoZ, and Skyward sword, the first game chronologically. I have a wii, so I could get Twilight Princess or Wind waker. I could also play Zelda II on my mini-NES, but... that game's kinda... not great. Or I could get a switch and play Breath of the Wild, but I don't know if I want to spend $300+ for a console that I might only play a few games on.

Why KoW(t) COULD have been the Bondsmith book
NameIess replied to Ixthos's topic in Stormlight Archive
I love everything about this theory (in all the wrong ways of course) except for the part about Dalinar winning the contest of champions. I need him to die so we get fused Dalinar, the tragedy would just be too awesome. -

A scholar who saw that imprisoning Mishram would have waaaaaaay worse effects than everyone thought, but decided to obfuscate their findings anyways? Technically, they foresaw it, but that doesn't mean they saw the future.
