All of this conversation is useless, as Brandon Sanderson literally said this: This is the definitive answer.

being called a keeper as apposed to feruchemist implies that you are part of the organized sect of keepers, so hiding isn't going to work. -

I would bet on Kaladin:
-
At long range, the Mistborn could throw a dagger, but the Radiant has more time to dodge and react to the Mistborn's attack, even if the Mistborn see which way they are going to dodge. Which Kaladin could draw to his Syl-shield, using a reverse-lashing. Anyways, Kaladin could also just go higher into the air with lashings than Vin could with steel, then wait for her Atium to run out.

Jasnah heard a voice whisper in her head: "you could be a stick, it would be wonderful, no worries about voidbringers or politics, just being a stick"

Granted. However, you will never have any money on you except for the cash in your pocket, which will never be the correct currency for you to use. I wish for a sixteen absolutely perfect gemstones capable of capturing shards. -

Nine lives, I would rather live for an extremely long time than be killed by people who hate me. Would you rather live on Krypton, or be a keeper during the time of TWoA. -

Perfect! now I have plenty of time for self reflection! -

Granted! you will become a keeper at about the time of the beginning of The Well of Ascension, the only drawback is that you must remain in Terris with the other keepers until after the Hero of ages ends, unless forcibly removed by others of evil intent. I wish for more time. -
Christianity and Islam may share many similarities, but saying that if you reject one, you will reject the other is like saying that because you hate baseball, you will hate football as well, or saying that because you dislike chicken, you will dislike beef as well. They are not the same, and their core ideals are completely different, Christianity's being salvation through the grace of God, and Islam's being salvation through a good life. You cannot say that because Jasnah rejected one religion, she will reject all other religions that share similar characteristics. Also, where does Jasnah reject a religion based on its values, as opposed to the simple lack of evidence? The only rejection of a god or gods that I have seen from her is based on either lack of evidence, or rejection that a being is a god.
-
Just because a religion shares characteristics with another religion doesn't mean they are the same religion. For example, Christianity and Islam are both Monotheistic, yet they are vastly different in their beliefs. Jasnah does admit that Honor, the Heralds, and the like can exist, she chooses not to believe that they are gods: She chooses the correct view of Honor, which is that he is not a god, merely a being of great power.

Granted, you may give people Midas' touch. You may also take it away, by killing them. Have a good time listening to someone begging you to take the Midas ouch away, after they turn a family member into gold, and knowing the only way to do that is to kill them. I wish for chunks of Lerasium, Tanavastium, Edglium, Raysium, Bavadium, and Atium that are each the size of a large marble, with the exception of the Lerasium and atium, of which I want sixteen beads the size of large marbles. -
Jasnah has not discounted those beliefs because of their specific beliefs, but because of their lack of evidence, or, in the case of Vorinism, their "god" not being a god. In my opinion, for a being or beings to be a god, they must meet these requirements: 1. Infinite power, able to do anything unless directly opposed by another god 2. immortal, unkillable except by other gods. 3. immune to being affected in any way except by other gods. Neither the shards nor Adonalsium meet these requirements, as Adonalsium was killed and splintered by regular humans, and therefore they are not gods.

Spoilered for length: Mistborn are invested over time, by the metals they burn, like it leaves some kind of residue. A shardblade is more invested than the bands of mourning: A fullborn would be highly invested by the residual power, but even if they were tapping completely full metalminds at an unsustainable rate, which they would have no reason to do, as they cannot see the threat, they would still be less invested than a shardblade. It is possible to soulcast highly invested objects like Shardplate: So with Dalinar basically giving Jasnah an infinite amount of stormlight, it should be possible to soulcast the fullborn.
-
I would bring in Dalinar and Jasnah, have them go to the cognitive realm, then have Dalinar supercharge Jasnah while she soulcasts the fullborn to smoke.
-
I would take F-bendalloy, A-pewter, and F-cadmium, with A-cadmium, A-gold, and F-gold as backup. I would compound to fill my cadmium minds, because I don't like drowning.
-
To become a shard through this method, you would first have to convince a shard to delegate more than 50% of it's investiture, and then let you have it. Even if you bond every spren, collect every breath, and eat all the Atium/Lerasium/Harmonium on the planet, you will still not be anywhere near as strong as the shard itself, unless it specifically attempted to hand over it's power in this way.

Suck the light out of spheres, I can be a KR, or just an investiture absorber. Would you rather have a permanent Allomantic-Atium effect, or infinite stormlight with no surges (but still the healing effect). -
Windrunners can beat Mistborn in a straight up fight:

NameIess replied to killersquirrel59's topic in Forum Games & Random Stuff
Granted, but as you are from earth, you cannot connect to Preservation via the Spiritual realm, so allomancy is useless. I wish for immortality -
But it does decrease the chances of them worldhopping, especially as with all the trouble they are going through right now with Odium, they aren't likely to try going to other planets.
-
It's hard to get spren off-world, and I don't think she would learn how to do it from history. This makes any KR worldhoppers less likely, although Wit will probably learn how to get a spren off world by the end of the first series (if he doesn't know already).
