Hi! I'm interested in trying the Alleyverse so here's a character. I hope everything is in order: There you are! If it just so happens that my weaknesses remove more points than I thought, than I would add to Ari's skill in melee weapons.

Great. Thanks!

Thanks! What would the points be for a seon? That is the main thing I need to figure out.

I hope it's the latter

I'm interested in trying out the Alleyverse, but I have a question: could I have a seon bond as part of my character? I didn't see it listed in the magical abilities section of the Alleyverse Characters topic.

You are correct. Some of the weirdness with Shallan is that Testament is a deadeye, yet Shallan could still soulcast using that connection. And she could still summon testament as a shardblade without having a gemstone in the hilt to bond it. So there could be some very weird things with two different types of spren, one of whom is dead. Of course, Shallan is also weird.

Good point... also Naz has a shade-shooting gun, if I remember correctly.

We also know you can theoretically bond multiple spren: (Words of Radiance Lexington signing 2014) So this could be a possibility with Sigzil. Could he (at some point) have bonded a second spren while still bonded to his honorspren? If so, what effects could this have on the bond? especially once Ba-Ado-Mishram and whatever imprisoning her did to the life on roshar is undone, the effects could be weird.

Yeah, I would say TT is one step ahead of Fellowship, with Return closely following.

I remembered a WoB that is relevant to cognitive shadow's bonding people: OdysseyCon 2016: At JordanCon 2018: But then again: I agree.

Yesss another Tolkien fan! His art was so interesting (compared to Alan Lee's art), but I really liked it. That's awesome! I understand what you mean about Two Towers. I promise you though, the Return of the King is much easier to understand and more fast-paced. Those movies are amazing. Wait Two Towers is your favorite!? I've never met another person who agreed with me! Well, I guess you're more of a cognitive shadow than a flesh and blood person, but I'll take what I can get. I mean, a cognitive shadow is a person, but not a person in the same sense as a person in the physical realm. I'm going to stop there and not get into deep thoughts on souls and sentience and the value of a life and stuff.

Smooth

I don't think Aux could be Kal, because when Nomad sees Wit at first he calls out "Kal?" This makes me think Kaladin is still somewhere and not a chunk of investiture bonded to Sigzil.

What if Aux and the weirdness around that has something to do with freeing Ba-Ado-Mishram, restoring something to both humans and spren? Night Brigade, Dust Brigade...hmmm, well, these are threnodites so I wouldn't be surprised. I wonder, can Sigzil eat meat?

Thank you ADMINS for informing and alerting us to the rules!

Wow. I didn't do much theorizing when I first read it. I just read it as fast as I could take in the words. Same here! I hope you enjoy it, Amira!

Welcome! I hope you have fun here!

I'm homeschooled, but I go to a tutorial. At my tutorial we have classes with tutors and curriculums. And grades. Those dang grades. I think they're out to get me.

Good for you. Thank you Ta'veren Kaladin!

You have my respect. You were VERY dedicated to handing out cookies.

Facts.

Good to know!

Thaidakar can still offer cookies, I'm just informing the readers. Care to join the CIA and help inform people new to the forums?

Hey I'm not a member of the alleyverse, but I know I was annoyed when I was asked about a cookie right after joining and didn't know what it was. Is there any reason I shouldn't post the "pamphlet" below in new introductory threads? COOKIE INFORMATIONAL PAMPHLET: This is not an endorsement of the Alleyverse. This is just an informational pamphlet for the good of all new and inexperienced participants of the forums. If you are new to the 17th Shard's forums, you will likely be asked if you would like a "cookie." Since there are underlying intentions to these supposed "cookies," this pamphlet aims to inform the reader of their true meaning. Continuing to read is your own decision. Thank you for reading this Cookie Informational Pamphlet. We at the CIA (Cookie Information Association) work to inform the forums of the meaning behind cookies. We do not aim to discourage anyone from accepting a cookie, simply to help them make an informed decision.

I actually agree with all of that, but I still really like the prequels. They writing really was horrible.
