Dude. Even with all the RAFOs, you still got more answers than anyone who doesn't make it a point to harass Brandon after an event. And if your kid can get a Nightblood answers like that, I am sorry, but you need to breed more On a different note You can't do Hemalurgy unless you actively want to? I mean, it makes sense, but it's interesting that two people can perform exactly the same physical action (drive a spike at a marked location), yet one could steal a trait while the other would just kill somebody.

This is neat though.

Is this saying that there is a kalak glyph and it means "storm"? On the topic of destroyed Investiture, Brandon is saying that Nightblood is actually reducing the overall amount of Investiture in the universe. Which breaks my mind in so many ways...

After the initial round of Shadows of Self Q&As, I've been craving me some WoBs. Nightblood actually destroying Investiture is... disturbing. I've been treating Awakening is the most harmless magic system in the Cosmere, but it's ability to create a mini-Galactus is starting to become a little worrisome. Harmony's alternative name... Discord would work, but I like Chaos better. I am also really confused by why the identity of Lady Truth is such a secret. chasmfriend must be a RAFO-magnet...

I wouldn't eliminate either group from existence - the chance for a full Metalborn is low, but I don't think it's non-existent. The original plan for Era 3 involved a Mistborn serial killer, if I recall correctly.

No, but I too intend to migrate away from ties. If I can pull the look.

I am not (necessarily) asking for quote suggestions, by the way. I am okay with quotes, as long as they click with me, but I am also definitely okay with a personalization that doesn't come from the book. My original idea was to ask for my name written with the Aonic alphabet, but that turned out to be unreasonably hard for both me and Brandon. So I am definitely open to creative ideas.

I would've rebelled if Fitz had died. Torches and pitchforks type of stuff. Especially after he was so much a gentleman about the whole messed up situation with Will. Let me tell you, I was very much in camp Lance about the whole rivalry. Also, yeah, how did "Ward" get out? Presumably what we are led to believe is that Mack, Coulson, Daisy, and Fitz bailed the second Coulson and Fitz came back from Tatooine, and sometime between the time they left the room and the time they got in their flying room (at which point Mack told Mei to blow the castle up) "Ward" got out of the portal (which, presumably, was left open since the castle was going to blow up anyway, so bother figuring out how to close it prematurely) and survived the explosions relatively unscathed somehow. All of this in about 10 seconds.

Which are all great quotes, but none of them strike me, well, personal.

I've been trying to figure out how I want to personalize my leatherbound copy of Elantris for close to two weeks now, and nothing comes to mind. I don't want to ask a question, I want the book to have more of a dedication, but I can't think of anything beyond my name. With other books I usually go with a quote from the book, but the only two that are both short enough and powerful enough (to me) from this one are "Elantris was beautiful once" and "Eternity ended 10 years ago", and neither one of them feels like a good personalization to me. Plus, leatherbound books have a very collector's feel, and I want them to be somewhat... special. I think I can afford to wait a few days, so help me maybe?

It's sold out New batch in January, apparently still going to be numbered, but I should've preordered mine when they were first announced...

https://www.reddit.com/r/Fantasy/comments/3va8fw/day_4_group_ama_in_support_of_worldbuilders/cxslnns?context=10000 Sooo... Identity and Spiritweb are closely related.

And now there is. Go edit your votes, you unbelievers.

Haha, the man is unstoppable, he is going to take over the AMA and keep it alive for another 6 months! https://www.reddit.com/r/Fantasy/comments/3va8fw/day_4_group_ama_in_support_of_worldbuilders/cxrynqe?context=10000 https://www.reddit.com/r/Fantasy/comments/3va8fw/day_4_group_ama_in_support_of_worldbuilders/cxs2zt1?context=10000

I imagine Harmony is busy either investigating that new God Metal or Marsh is back from South Side and he has brought interesting news.

Sooo. Tell me about Henshaw, I don't do comics.

Mostly didn't work. Raoden's Ehe still glowed a little bit, for a short period of time.

Cravat fandom is just apparently just quieter than bowtie fandom.

Eh. Once cravats make a comeback, half of your will regret your misguided allegiance to bowties.

From the Worldbuilders AMA:

I was dead tired yesterday, couldn't finish the list. It looks like I am in a much better shape today, so I'll try in a few hours.

So many of you disappoint...

Sorry, bowties, we must settle this at high noon at a poll.

I feel this is a poll much needed in our lives. Because while bowties are cool, they are clearly inferior to cravats.
