Asperity

Are there groups of people and/or factions other than the 17th Shard and Hoid (maybe other Yolen-born) who can worldhop? Can someone 'accidentally' worldhop? Does all worldhopping modify your lifespan?

I was wondering: Would it be possible to have a... page? stickied thread? Wiki page? I don't know; whichever is easier for say, an updated list of the last X months Q&A Cosmere reveals? I don't frequent this forum on a daily basis--I tend to get busy and not check back for months--so I seem to miss a lot of very important and informative spoilers. I was just curious if something like that could be possible instead of spending hours sifting through the Events board looking for recent threads. It's a selfish request but I'm sure many others could benefit as well.

Forgive me if he's said it before, but I noticed around the end, Sanderson referred to Adonalsium as a 'he'.

Neat. I'll probably ask one of the questions I posted in the big ol' question thread (because I never remember them on my own).

A meta-character in a meta-series? Would be interesting.

Ooo, the Adonalsium question was something I was wanting to know. Figures he can't tell us though.

What is the name of the program he is using to write (type) with?

Waiting for that Path of Exile open beta. Too much hype.

iirc, honorblade is the same as a shardblade. Just two different titles for the same thing. I'm sure someone more motivated than I can hook us up with a Q&A quote.

Since I keep hearing about it everywhere and despite my already large book backlog, what can I expect if I read WoT? I hear that some of the later books drone on (as in nothing of significance happens), and some ridiculously verbose description segments. Plus is it a decent series (try to leave bias out of this answer) and does it honestly end well?

I'd still like to know an official and updated number pertaining to the amount of books that will be published in the Cosmere. Or ask how many stand-alone novels will be produced (anything other than Silence Divine?) Or if you want to go all out, just ask if Adonalsium was sentient, and/or if it was man-made.

For some reason, with all the talk about Hoid being so powerful, I wonder if artificial shards exist.

Didn't one interview say that we'll probably find out in the Stormlight 2 Epilogue?

I'm surprised this came in so fast. Just got it today but I only ordered it around two weeks ago. I asked for "any tidbit of info about the Southern Scadralians" and while it's vague, I'm sure it'll lead to much speculation:

I'm interested to know how many books he plans in total for the Cosmere because last time I added it up, it went way past 36.

Is it just a "reply to ask a question?" I have a goodreads account but I didn't get any message. Most likely because I don't rate the books I read.

I forgot you could buy personalized books. I just ordered an Alloy hardcover and asked for any info about the Southern Scadralians. If I don't get a huge bold 'RAFO' across the cover, I'll post it whenever it comes in.

He did know some of them personally (assuming he was the author of The Letter).

It's pretty much a given that the worlds will eventually converge. Maybe not all but multiples. I think the first major one we'll see is the hinted Warbreaker-related scene in the epilogue for Stormlight 2.

He will send out White Sand and Aether of Night though but you have to wait a few months for a reply.

Speaking of space, I wonder if Realmatic Theory will become known to the universal masses as access to Shadesmar would negate the need for space travel to other planets. Then again I wonder if someone has to travel to another planet before being able to go there through Shadesmar (only brought it up since we don't know how far technology had advanced pre-Shattering).

I'm hoping we're told a reason why Vin ignored Hoid in HoA since that trilogy is over sometime soon.

Actually the most powerful (currently) is Harmony. It's in a Q&A somewhere.

Big difference is that Odium's Shardholder was already dangerous before he even possessed Odium.

Perhaps Odium is worse because of his Shardholder. And Hate can possibly be a more persisting desire than wanting to destroy.
