 I agree that this is fairly close fight but the full born as far as I can tell has the advantage. Your forgetting  That storm healing has nothing on a fullborns healing.  Nights radiance die from the decapacation fullborn only laugh. Not to mention we there practically the flash. It took vin nearly ascending to shard hood to kill the lord ruler. The last men with all ten surges  was killed by a large arrow. 

you're forgetting that that was a special case. he had swallowed a gem, and that was the source of his power. so it was easy to kill him. but for someone that has an external source of power, it'll be WAY harder to kill them

Sure! Fortunately, every version of every page on a wiki is saved forever. I did it on the Coppermind main page, so we did have to revert it later. Here it is, with her response at the top: https://coppermind.net/wiki/Coppermind:Welcome?&oldid=113378

Thank you so much!! My friend will love it!

Hello! I'm not sure this is the best forum for this question, so forgive me if it isn't. I'm looking for that coppermind article of Eric (Chaos) proposing to Jess (LadyLameness). It was really cute, and I want to show my friend. Any idea where I can find it? If I can find it at all?

@Iapetus the Titan you might want to clarify how the radinet has ten surges. Do they have a spren that just gives them ten surges with plate and shard blade, is it a radient with all ten honor blades, is it someone with that unmade that gave all ten surges?

just because of how powerful the fullborn is, I figure the best way to even out the odds is to give the radiant spren bonds. and as many sets of plate as is reasonably possible

Who would win in a fight? A Fullborn or a Knight Radiant with all 10 surges?

To keep the fight fair, each contender will have had 1 year with their full capabilities. The fight will take place where there is enough metal for the Fullborn to move around, but not enough to make it unfair. To start of with, the Fullborn will have full metalminds, and full metal reserves. The Radiant will have maxed Stormlight as well. Considering the healing capabilities, the fight will end when someone has "decapitated" their opponent. They are NOT aware of each other's capabilities. Please keep in mind that the Fullborn would be from Era 2, and would have access to the new metals such as cadmium, bendalloy, nicrosil, etc. 

So, I know that it's possible for a Mistborn to burn a shardblade, but this is my question. If you were a Mistborn and a Knight Radiant, (like Hoid) could you burn a shardblade without summoning the blade into the physical realm? Would this only work for shard-bearers that aren't Knights? Would this harm your spren?

It's not. They don't even know about instant noodles (except Taldain), so who is he going to tell about it? This is pure WOB knowledge right here.

ooooh. okay. thank you so much. that answers a lot

I love the responses, but where in the books is this mentioned?

I recently saw this meme, and I couldn't remember where this Hoid mentions instant noodles. Do any of you know?

Soulstamps are a different magic system from AonDor. It uses the same investiture (The Dor), but it's based on MaiPon instead of Elantris/Arelon. It uses its own symbols, with the setting mark based on MaiPon. Shai just left Aon Reo on the wall when she left as a big insult, sort of like leaving an Anarchy symbol or something.

All of the magics on that planet are based on symbols that resemble the land of the person using the magic. So Soulstamping is similar to AonDor, but is its own system.

okay, makes sense. But where did it go? Why don't we see it in Elantris?

Okay, I just finished Emperor's Soul. I'm a little confused as to what happened to soul stamping. In the story, it mentions "Aon" Reo, which I think is the Aon for Destruction. But that doesn't matter. Did soul stamping just evolve INTO Aons? they both are typically the same Idea. You draw a stamp/Aon and then an action happens. Is soul stamping the old version of Aons?

They are originally from Elantris(when an Elantrain gets old and enters the pool they become an IRE).

If they're from Elantris, why do they end up on Scadrial? Also, where is this mentioned? 

Okay. I haven't quite yet finished Emporer's Soul, but in the prologue of it, Kriss mentions the Ire. These people also appear in Mistborn: Secret History. Is there a connection? Kriss appears in Secret History, and I believe (it's been a while) she advises Kelsier to go to the Ire. What could a people in the.. spiritual realm(?) know about the planet of Sel?

Kinda unimportant question. Is there an Aon for sound? I was just thinking.(SPOILERS FOR THE RITHMATIST AHEAD) In the Rithmatist, there is a drawing that sucks out sound. do you think an Aon could do that? if so, and if it exists, what does it look like??

okay, I just finished it, and I just have a few questions to clear everything up:

How long before Way of Kings is this? this is only a few hundred years after Nightblood is created, and then it needs to travel to Roshar...

Also, speaking of Way of Kings, does breath act like stormlight, in a way? In the Way of Kings, you need a great amount of stormlight to be able to hold Nightblood, and on Nalthis, you need a great amount of breaths to wield him. 

Oooh. Now I see

Just a thought. Not all of us are going to be alive when the Cosmere is finished. Heck, BRANDON might not even be alive!! There's so much that needs to happen, that he might have to pass of the Cosmere to another author

Okay. Right after Siri starts talking to Susebron, she asks "Scoot" what happened to the other God Kings. The answer she gets is that they gave up their breath. One God King supposedly gave up his breath to cure some diseases. What troubles me about this is this. How? I thought maybe one of his breaths went to one of the people who were sick, and the extra breath helped heal their sickness. But if that's the case, then what happens to the thousands of other breaths once all the sick people are cured? 

And if that's the case, (him giving up his breaths to help the sick people) isn't contact needed to transfer a breath? He can only give up his breath once, and it's all or nothing. 

I'm not yet done with the book, but I just wanted to ask this question. Can anybody become an Awakener? I assume all you have to do is have an extra few breaths, which you can gain by buying them. but is that it? Is that all you need?

Okay. I'm just trying to get my facts about Odium straight. He is the shard of hatred, and is going about the cosmere killing the other shards, trying to become the last "god". but then he made a deal with Honor, that if he could get a bondsmith to let him go, then he could leave, but then the desolation happened, and he got stuck on Roshar. yes?

I'm kinda confused on Hoid. I know he's traveling the cosmere, collecting types of investiture, but do we know his final goal? I've heard that he's trying to keep all the shards separate, and I've heard that he's trying to gather them together. help?

Hello! I'm a huge Sanderfan, and I'm almost done with the cosmere. I have Warbreaker, Elantris, and the Arcanum Unbounded left. I have many questions that slowly get answered by my friend every other day, so I'm excited to join the 17thShard!

Hello All!! I'm not new to Sanderson and the Cosmere, but I am new to how everything connects. Can someone please explain to me the background of the Cosmere? ie. Adonalsium, the shattering, shard planets, etc.
