    No, she isn't. She is probably more powerful than Ham, but she is not immediately noticeable as abnormally strong, meaning that she is probably something like 1.1-1.5 times stronger.

    Which resulted in mutation.

    No, Lezian is not a soldier. He is an extremely skilled fighter. He almost killed Kaladin in their first encounter, despite Kaladin having an abundance of stormlight. He only dies the first time because of his overconfidence, and he dies the second time because Kaladin gets inside his head. (And, y'know, Kaladin is Kaladin) Leshwi just about killed Sigzil, a third ideal radiant. Sure, there were no casualties in the fight above Hearthstone, but Kaladin left the less experienced squires out of the battle, and the windrunners as a whole fought defensively. The fused in general are more skilled than the radiants, but the radiants have a big advantage in power when they have stormlight. We haven't seen a battle between radiants and fused where Dalinar hasn't been constantly refilling their stormlight. in a normal battle, squires would run out of stormlight very quickly, and even ignoring their skill difference, when a battle lasts for hours, it will eventually be impossible to keep hundreds of squires supplied with stormlight, especially if you have to think about having another battle before the highstorm refuels you. Fused can get voidlight whenever they want, and use far less than radiants. So radiants win at first, then fall off hard as time stretches on.

    Books are canon above WoB's, and the books explicitly state that Pewter is additive, not multiplicative: In case that quote is to ambiguous, the way the magic system works in the book is also clearly additive. Vin was able to leap higher and was much more agile than Ham while both of them burned pewter. If Ham got something like 2-5 times as much strength as Vin, there would be little to no difference in their agility as they would both get the same relative strength.

    I don't think you would need an airtight space in order to shield from shardic influence, or at least sight. The Sibling couldn't see inside of Lift's aluminum cage, and it seems that aluminum blocking the sight of invested entities is a theme. Shards might be able to overcome that though. I also feel like allomancy would still function in an aluminum lined place as the power comes from the spiritual realm, but I can't be sure.

    It's possible. I don't think it's likely, and I wouldn't point to Vin having trouble controlling Koloss as an example (Elend could control more than her, so that seems to indicate that it is a power thing and shards still go insane, so...)

    I think that a really strong connection between two things changes their identity.

    Squires are nowhere near fused level. Even discounting the massive skill difference and stormlight efficiency, squires are vulnerable to fused stormlight-sucky things. We don't really see the desolations though. We see the aftermath of them, but not the desolations themselves.

    Who was eaten by the chicken.
  10. NameIess
    A very loud hamster.
  11. NameIess
    And lost his voice.
  12. NameIess
    AND STARTED TALKING IN ALL CAPS

    Nameless turned Thaidakar into a flower.

    The chicken glowed as it absorbed the narrative essence from Thaidakar's eye.
  15. NameIess
    The chicken chose this moment to reveal that it was a zombie, and promptly pecked out one of Thaidakar's eyes.
  16. NameIess
    The chicken, however, latched onto Thaidakar's finger, injecting more deadly venom into Thaidakar's bloodstream.
  17. NameIess
    The chicken chose this moment to sting Thaidakar with its poisonous barbs.
  18. NameIess
    But the pineapple supporters held to the prophecy.

    Nameless decided now was a good time for his final trick, and disappeared.

    She thought that Odium was going to use Dalinar to kill a ton of people.
  21. NameIess
    But she didn't kill Dalinar, even if doing so would have let the rest of Roshar grow better.

    Survival of the fittest is an important part of evolution, and Cultivation tries to cultivate everything, not just weak things.

    Now, don't take this as an endorsement of torturing criminals to inspire fear in other criminals, but I prefer, in this specific case, the capture of the criminals. Jasnah suddenly has political power in Karbranth. No one wants to displease the Alethi, so the person in charge of the guard will stop for at least a little while, and it will give Taravangian more power to stop the problem from happening.
  24. NameIess
    Quick and painless death that accomplishes nothing, or "drawn out" suffering that prevents or at least discourages further crimes?
  25. NameIess
    Are we expecting them to brush it off?
