  1. https://coppermind.net/wiki/Shard has a list of all known Shards (-Virtuosity as they don't put non-published works on the Coppermind)
  2. The spiked one (and not in the alcohol kind of way)
  3. Hello! And if you think rereading takes too long the Coppermind has articles like this one summarizing all this Mistborn books, although it's probably not as fun as rereading
  4. We've got a couple Words of Brandon on the first (These also seem to be somewhat contradictory so you know take from that what you will) As for 2 it does seem like it's possible but he RAFO'd what that would do
  5. I'm even a millennial (a young one admittedly but still) and I've never heard of ICQ or Jabber, and I definitely don't use the rest of them
  6. Will he even still be affected by that magic? Can he be? Can Cultivation affect the intelligence of another Shard like that?
  7. I could see that, although he does seem to spend a lot of time out doing stuff for someone who still seems to be as young as he is, if his only way of traveling through time is to freeze himself in it.
  8. I'm like very surprised to see a post be like 3½ years old and still going strong. Also I just lost the game
  9. "Journey before destination, you bastard" - Navani RoW God it was so nice seeing Navani get some revenge for Elhokar
  10. Oh that is a tough one! I do always love that kind of clever witty character you can get from Hoid and Renarin is the one I feel the most kinship with but I think in the end it comes down to either Jasnah or Steris and between the two I'd probably have to go with Steris. I just love her earnestness and her and Wax's relationship is just adorable
  11. It could be even stronger since Oathbreaker is just one word so you could also just use the acronym O and it could be made into a true palindrome And of course we know that the Alethi and other Vorin nations do love palindromes and symmetry so it very well might be
  12. Ah yes, the wiki could use some adjusting, it says he said it was similar to both but yeah the citations, do not support that at all
  13. Admittedly, but he did also say that it was close to Prudence, which knowledge is even farther from
  14. I wouldn't say that Wisdom is knowledge. As the old joke goes, knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit, wisdom is knowing it still doesn't belong on a fruit salad. A variety of life experiences may help one be wise, but I don't think I'd go so far to say that knowledge is related to Wisdom and then of course we still have the leap form Virtuosity to knowledge
  15. The name hasn't been confirmed, only that the name is similar to Wisdom/Prudence. I also don't think it's confirmed that that shard is the survival shard, although it would make sense
  16. With Design having a full human disguise it sure seems like he chose this rather than it being forced upon him. Unless spren are normally visible outside of Roshar why would Design have needed a disguise in general?
  17. Interesting, why is that? I wouldn't associate Invention with either of the 2 concepts mentioned there
  18. If we're only counting fuller length novels as books then probably Rhythm of War. If any story counts then I'd say Shadows for Silence in the Forests of Hell
  19. Virtuosity is not having virtue but rather being artistically talented, usually musically. It's related to the word virtuoso. I thought the same thing at first until I saw someone else bring up the difference.
  20. Just like earlier he said that painter's skin was lighter than an Alethi's. He's talking to the audience who he is assuming has wider Cosmere knowledge (at least somewhat)
  21. Hi everyone! I'm Tony from just outside the Twin Cities in Minnesota. I've been enjoying Stormlight for the past few years because of my boyfriend but when I decided to read the rest of the Cosmere he couldn't quite keep up (only having read Mistborn Era 1 and Stormlight) so I was gonna try to get more involved here! I've read all of Sanderson's published works in the Cosmere except for Dawnshard (currently reading!) and the White Sand graphic novels (on hold from the library!) but I'm excited to join the community!
  22. Yeah it seemed to me to be that the "star" Painter sees and then says they've recently discovered is a planet was probably Yumi's
