Yes, but no power, no matter how OP, will work if they can't use it before they're dead.

It could have been Nightblood that made her want to find a way to replicate it, as now they know it is possible to permanently kill a fused.

The guy can lift the thunderclast and throw him several miles, and if there is a large amount of metal nearby, he will break them apart. It is OP, but it won't be useful if TLR kills him in the blink of an eye.

BLame him ^^^^^ Also, yeah, Ookla season is over, please change back!

Yes.

Yes, probably, and that will have interesting economic changes, especially with those new metalminds. I would suggest making a thread about that. P.S, I have a thread for metalmind businesses in the Mistborn forum, if you have any ideas, feel free to share them there. (Please do, I want more people to share ideas there.) Agreed! Glad everyone agrees, it means I'm not crazy.

There is a new year's stream Q&A happening where you can try and ask BS these questions.

I think people would still like Kal. Lirin's ideology of pure pacifism can grind people's gears, as it's a very extreme position a lot of people will disagree with. That is part of what can set people off, Kal's ideology is more relatable to people than Lirin's. Lirin's is definitely a great character, and while I see him as extreme, because let's face it, he does represent the more extreme side of the spectrum for the whole pacifism thing, that's part of who he is, I am capable of seeing his perspective and understanding him and he is very consistent and well thought out. The only parts that ever annoy me are when he tries to institute his ideology onto Kal, as I feel while you should explain your ideology, you shouldn't try to force it onto your children. But even that is consistent with him and the annoyance is the good kind, not the bad kind. Wasn't really surprised with Hesina. She is clearly the peacemaker. Choosing any side would prevent her from getting both sides together. Yeah, Lirin represents parents with a strict code and a close-mindedness to other ideologies, which is very common with parents, specifically traditional Indian and Asian parents, and people with those parents will have strong opinions of a character that matches so perfectly with them. I think everyone can clearly guess my relationship with my parents.

Hmm. Maybe Kal is still on the table then. Could not have said it better myself. The qualities that separate them from the social norms on Roshar are what make them special, and those struggles they have, like Rlain being hated by both humans and singers is very much who he is, as he made those choices that led him to being an outcast on both sides, and that's what we want to see him overcome, gaining the respect of both Humans and Singers, to the point that he can date a human and people won't even bat an eye. Saying those personality traits keep him from having character is missing the point that those are his character traits, his struggles. I can relate that every time BS confirms a character is autistic, I just sit there wondering what I missed, because for both Steris and Renarin, I viewed them as fairly normal people, even with the lists. I am fairly blind to this sort of thing, even in real life. I have a friend whose gay who I have been friends with for years, and he recently told me he was gay and I was surprised, and he was confused I was surprised because a lot of people seemed to find it obvious he was gay and that he had a lot of telltale signs, but whatever those signs are, they just go over my head. So I can never tell when a character is being written autistic because I always seem to see their behavior as normal, if a little quirky in regards to Steris' lists. Possibly because I myself am very abnormal, so abnormal is my normal? I have no idea, I just know I am blind to this. Well, that's the thing that confuses me is that hasn't been a focus at all in the books. Rlain's outcast status has more to do with loyalties, similar to how someone betraying their people for another and how those people might be suspicious of him despite him giving them information. The fact they are gay is such a small factor that there are people who missed it who are not just me. What he is saying is a legitimate concern, you never want an author to focus too much on one trait only, I just don't think this announcement should've sparked that worry, as it is something said outside the book. If it wasn't for that confirmation, people would be split about whether or not they would be a thing. And like said above, how many 'isms' is too many?

I am more excited to see Renarin tell his father the news. We know Adolin will be supportive and his reaction joyful; I have no idea how Dalinar will react to his son dating a parshman. maybe he'll raise an eyebrow and shrug, maybe he'll smile, maybe he be concerned about how this will be viewed and whether it will help mend relations between Singers and Humans are damage them more, and the Stormfather will definitely mention that Singers x Humans have happened in the past. (Btw, on some Venli fanart, i commented saying I needed some HumanxSinger couples, and hearing this a week or so later feels like "Your wish has been granted.") Please don't tell me that tongue twister is their official ship name. Can't it be Renlain? That's exactly what I said! Oh god no, It's spreading. Can we please have a pole on their official ship name? Yeah, I'm going to love seeing more of them in the future. Wonder if their future visions will affect each other and if they can tell each other's future, and if Todium knows Rlain can see the future. Yes. Yes, all the way. only problem is that Viel is gone so I don't think Kal is an option anymore, but BS has said Ado, Shall, and Kal would be fine in some threesome relationship. And the fact Shallan is Bi means there can be even more possibilities. Who has she shown physical appreciation for besides Jasnah? I really want this now. Don't tempt me, because I doubt BS is going to do it.

I'm just gonna say one thing... I ship Byleth and Edelgard for life.

Still would be better than being maneuvered into a bad position.

Um, he didn't happen to specify which Bondsmith he would be, would he?

Does anyone know which radiant order Brandon Sanderson would be? Either which is his favorite or which he would be in-world?

Welcome friend. Will you still be alive when BS does Mistborn Era 4?

I believe there is a line where he says he used up his last bit of atium to Dockson and they reference the prologue. I don't have Mistborn to confirm right now.

That nobleman who waned to rape a girl at the start of mistborn? He burned his manor down.

What? explain joke please. Yes, you should.

I changed, eave me alone. No idea, what? (Also, will you change back to your plaque doctor icon ever?)

Yeah, I was wanting to mention that there are already gay characters in Bridge four, he would fit in perfectly. There isn't any real discrimination there for the Alethi.

What would happen if a Radiant was stabbed with anti-stormlight before the spren is killed? WOuld it permanently kill them like it does the Fused?

No. I would have said I will consider this new deal and consult with Wit to see how much Odium said was true or false, like him not controlling the Regals. Then I would confirm would the other rulers as we decide what we should do. Besides, the deal felt so... small.

... oh. Has it been put in the arcanum yet so I can confirm and not have to search?
