    Moni was rather annoyed that narrators insisted on narrating her all the time, but continued following the nameless consultant.
  2. NameIess
    Debatably.
  3. NameIess
    Moni looked at the castle and did a double take. Where had that come from?
  4. NameIess
    Moni grumbled unhappily, but walked up to the consultant.

    I think they could maybe make someone drab regardless. Might need to be a savant or really powerful, but I don’t think it would be any harder to get rid of someone’s natural breath than an unnatural one.

    So why does he not deserve pity for that? He didn't do anything wrong. Or are you talking about Shallan?
  7. NameIess
    Wait, what happened with Shallan's mother? You mean Shallan's stepmother? But yeah, I pretty much agree with your analysis of Lin's motivations. I think that he was also heavily influenced by the unmade, but overwork and stress probably played a factor as well. Personally, I feel pity for him and the whole Davar family. Things could have turned out so much better for them all, and we don't even really know the full details of why it turned out that way, and probably won't until at least KoW.

    I think Chromium works on a similar principle to aluminum, which purifies the soul of unnatural investiture.

    Nameless snorted dismissively and exploded Spook again.
  10. NameIess
    Nameless exploded Spook. Then he grabbed one of the phoenix's feathers and used it to revive Moni.
  11. NameIess
    Nameless burst in behind Facepalm leading a crowd of angry peasants with pitchforks and torches. "YOU!" he shouted at Facepalm "WE WANT OUR MONEY BACK"

    While Thaidakar was busy ascending, Moni snuck up and stabbed him in the back with Nightblood.
  13. NameIess
    The phoenix majestically flapped its wings, flying gracefully into the sunset.
  14. NameIess
    The chicken (actually a phoenix) burst majestically from Thaidakar, incinerating him completely.
  15. NameIess
    The chicken chose this moment to reveal that it was from Roshar. Its ashes burst into flame.
  16. NameIess
    The chicken took offense to this, and scratched out Thaidakar's other eye.

    I think Kaladin will say the fifth ideal, assuming he survives book 5. I don't think he'll continue his theme of saying the ideals as part of a climactic moment, but I could be wrong.
  18. NameIess
    "I want my money back! Your consultancy skills are garbage!"
  19. NameIess
    Everyone screamed.
  20. NameIess
    We don't know that he intended to die. He might have wanted to escape the physical realm into the Dor, where his elantrian status would allow him to survive (maybe). Or maybe you're right and he got lucky.

    Look at it this way: say Vin is at 100%. Normal allomancers are at 75%. Vin is 1.333333333333333... times stronger than the average allomancer. That matches with the books. She's strong enough that it is noticeable in a steelpush competition, but not enough that most people recognize it easily. It does not give her the ability to outperform Ham, who is at minimum twice as strong as she is. this point is still irrelevant, because the books confirm that strength due to A-pewter is additive. I gave the quote directly from the book. Here's another one: This quote directly contradicts the WoB. "several times" means more than double. If it was multiplicative, that would mean Vin would have to be getting her strength multiplied by 6-10 times, assuming she's half the strength of a normal soldier. Then Elend comes along. Assuming he's something like 2-3 times as strong as Vin, He's now 12-20 times as strong as the average warrior on the low end, 18-30 times on the high end. Doesn't add up? That's because it's additive, not multiplicative.
  22. NameIess
    So Vin and Elend are equal in power? No. The books clearly show that Elend is vastly more powerful than Vin. Brandon is not giving an accurate powerscaling statement here, he's making the point that the amount of allomantic power you have changes the difficulty of snapping. The numbers are not accurate.
  23. NameIess
    If she was twice as strong as Kelsier, it would have been immediately obvious to literally everyone she ever got into an allomantic fight with. She's slightly stronger than the average allomancer of the time, but within reasonable limits. She's not a lerasium mistborn. Brandon saying Vin is at 100% on the allomantic power scale means nothing, because for all we know the average could be 75%

    Lezian lost once when he was actually fighting and not being overconfident. Against Kaladin, someone who is possibly supernaturally skilled. Any other radiant besides Szeth and Dalinar would have been killed by Lezian, Probably in their first encounter.

    As the chicken ascended, it came to a stunning realization:
