No. This WoB say, that Scadrian Gems have the same properties as Rosharan Gems. And Scadrial definitly has "normal" resources, is very much like Earth, and nothing there have Gemhearts.

This is very hard. We know that is possible to make Hemalurgic spike without killing, but action still generates damage to the soul, causing insanity. Only person immune to this damage is Gold Compounder - he can regenerate damaged body and soul. He can do this even after stealing his F-Gold, because can burn his metalmind with Feruchemical charge. Also he can be able to regenerate after A-Gold stealing, if he has enough Health in metalminds. So This can be viable solution: 1. Give Misting/Ferring with wanted ability, two spikes, and make him in addtion Gold Compounder, 2. Steal his wanted ability, 3. Wait until he/she regenerate, 4. Repeat point 2 and 3 as many times as is needet. Now I imagine Hemalurgic Spikes Factory...

I remember that, but i would have to search throu all three books to find that, what will take... way too long. Sorry. And yes, color of gems matters. Sapphire and Ruby are the same mineral. You are probably right. Maybe this has something to do with accesability of Rubys or Zircons.

Sapphire value comes not from usefulnes for soulcasting, but from fact that Sapphires hold the Stormlight the longest from all gemstones. So they are the best source of light during Whip. Ruby is also very valuable because it part of Heating Fabrials - and need for Heat without smoke in underground shelters is easly understandable.

Yes, we are sure.

Maybe more Skybreakers take side of Master Szeth (when he become one). I think Shalans brothers become Radiants, as well as Shalans servants, like Gaz. Other Bridgemen become Windrunners of course. Adolin will become Edgedancer. I hope for Stonewards. Probably weve met Stoneward Spren (in Shadesmar, in Celebrant, those with grey rock-like skin). Second Bondsmith too, but I hope it will be Taravangian. Ellsecallers are Jasnah Order. Stonewards we didnt see yet, but Taln was their Patron Herald. Venlis Order. I hope we are going to see Human Willshaper. Sebarial maybe.

Probably because on Roshar meat is much more accesable than grain. Weve seen animals, heardable or huntable. Good example are chulls, they are much bigger than our cows. Animals are also less dependent on Highstorms than plants. Other answer can be acessability to the stone itself. Heliodor can be more popular than saphire. Another answer can be that demand for meat is lesser than for Grain (what is logical, in our world is the same) so heliodors are not as needet, because less of them can supply soulcasting. This can be combine with first reason upper.

Aluminum isnt even known widely on Roshar. Shallan knows it, because she had necless made from it, but others not - Szeth has no idea from what is Nightblood Sheeth made, also Kal and others in Kholinar dont have idea what is that strange silver metal what stops detection of soulcasting. Kal even sees neccless made from aluminium on marketplace in Celebrant and have no idea what is this and why it is so expensive.

No, is plenty of food types that dont have glucose, and have to be convert into glucose in series of biochemical reactions inside organism. Every fatty food (butter, oils), high-proteine food, even in many vegetables is no glucose, but polisacharyds. My bet is Lift metabolizes food into glucose, this convert into energy (normal way, as any human) and then part of this energy is converted into Stormlight.

Exactly. She will stay in PR as sword forever. And Captain Ico clearly says, that his deadeye father is going to search for current owner of his corpse. So he is para-bonded with living human as Shardblade. If he summons the blade, Captain Icos father will be pull from his room into the PR, he will apear again if he will be summoned back, probably in the same place because of Connection. This probably upplies to every other spren who enters to the PR, like Highspren of Skybreakers (they most likely dont transfer themselves int PR unless as Blades) or even Mandras - they vanish from CR and enter PR as luckyspren.

I think also digestibility is important here. Technicly, fats are more caloric than monosacharyds, but monosacharyds can be asimilate much easier. And this is why she gain more stormlight from sugars in specific timeperiod.

Normaly, stealing abilities with spike requires kill. Is possible to not kill with spike during stealing, but this leaves spiked person with permanently damaged soul. I think this should be normally mortal wound - like throu heart. Different abilities are stealed by spikes made from different metals - if you want steal A-Gold, you need Cadmium Spike, if you want steal F-Gold, you need Golden Spike.

No, she was allready on place. Adolin dont have summoned blade during teleportation. I think this can have something to do with gems in blades - they provide Connection to user, so this is like para-bond, and this allow spren to come back into Shadesmar as deadeye. And yes, many things that there are plenty of shardbaldes and plates around somewhere.

Of course he has few metalminds inside the body. In Stomach, more specificly. Compounding demands that, he has to swallow few metalminds to burn them - and he dont need burn all of them, he can just tap them. It is possible to tap metalminds in stomach, Sazed did that. Few reasons: 1. It can be dangerous. Metal can react with acid in stomach. It isnt issue for Gold, but for other metals like Pewter or Cadmium... 2. Metalminds need to be small enough to swallow, and smaller metalminds mean smaller maximum charge. Yes, this is very good idea, but only for "standard" gold healing. We even have WoB: https://wob.coppermind.net/events/76/#e6335 So this mean, Gold Compounder can be spiked for F-Gold, and burn his golden metalminds as Allomancer and heal himself, regenerate his feruchemical abilities. So he can be spiked again. And again, and again...

I think more about Energy of food. I think she is able to convert food into energy (normal way, like every other human) and then convert this energy into Stormlight. And this is fascinating - because probably is straight converter between Food Calories and Stromlight. It is also interesting, how much of this energy she converts, and how much she metabolizes. For example, is unconverted energy equal BMR? More? Less? How much?

It is Theory about Rock that he will become Stoneward. This can be evidence supporting this theory - maybe this is one way that Surge of Tension works on most basic level - can make bones, muscles and tendons of user much harder to break so they can be push much above their normal limits.

Feruchemy provides more usefull normal-day abilities. Feruchemical Tin is much more usefull than Allomantic because of selecatbility, Feruchemical steel, zinc, copper are very usefull. Bronze, cadmium, bendaloy, are not that hard to store, even electrum and gold can be cheated by some medicine.

I will prefer Ferruchemy over Allomancy, but if i have to choose being Misting, the best will be being Slider (Bendalloy).

Via Coppermind: He also survive the Highstorm outside. Also via Coppermind: Coppermind is very good place to find info.

Technicly, it warned him. But too late.

No, if Shard invested heavily into one Planet. If he does, he is Connected to this particular world. Like Devotion and Dominion are connected to Sel, being shattered. Like Honor is connected to Roshar.

We know that Aluminum can be used to remove Investiture from body. So answer for Aluminum will be also yes.

What is better? One Mistborn or small army of Mistings? We can have much more of metal to give people by alloing with Lerasium. And maybe they have other hemalurgic properties. We simply dont know.

When Shardblade dont have owner, is still in PR. Just like normal sword. We even have examples - Dalinar has Oathbringer hung on the wall. We even know that Shardblades in the past were just in PR constantly, untill someone dont add to them gems.
