  1. Oh man I never thought about hamsterballing a speed bubble
  2. I wonder if Lumar has high percentage of people with argyria. Also we don’t really know what the spines are made of and how fast they sink or how durable they are.
  3. I just think that Jak is actually a Twinborn with Spinner Feruchemy powers that he keeps secret.
  4. That... is true. Huh. I wonder what the Shattering in DSP was going to be then.
  5. Would you say a Desolation is less, just as, or more devastating than the Bronze Age collapse? Sel is also kinda weird. We only see so much of the map and while Teod and Arelon have good contact with the various nations of the Fjordell Empire they seem to have barely any contact with the Rose Empire to the north and we know nothing of the south.
  6. Compounding granted by hemalurgy is currently not viable
  7. Hence why the miners weren’t allowed to leave Diggen’s Point. Too rare and valuable to not have a guaranteed workforce.
  8. How would you gain Feruchemy feruchemically though? What would you be storing in order to tap later that grants the ability? It does bring up the question if any Scadrian can burn Lerasium and Atium without originally being an Allomancer can any Scadrian tap and store via a Harmonium metalmind without being a Feruchemist? I think there is a theory that since becoming a Mistborn is just a side effect of A-Lerasium that its actual effect is forging a greater Connection with the Shard. So it might be a Lerasium-Harmonium alloy is what would grant Feruchemy as a side effect.
  9. Well some people believe that if you could safely burn Harmonium it would make you a full feruchemist so by that logic an alloy would make you the related ferring but I’m not sold on that actually being Harmonium’s Allomantic ability.
  10. Possible reason that Renarin’s “lightweaving” made Moash’s pain come back is that his powers caused Odium to not be able to perceive Moash but I’m not sure just that would interrupt the connection Odium uses to siphon the pain. I assume it was just a subconscious thing where seeing the illusion part of Moash recognizes he deserves to feel pain but the conscious part of him still rejects it so it caused a hiccup in the connection.
  11. It’s similar to the Night’s Watch vow in ASOIAF and has a similar meaning.
  12. I assume a Spren could form the strings as part of that single solid piece. I’m not sure about the acoustics of a fully metal guitar though.
  13. I would assume that you burn a metal allomantically which acts as the key to the spiritual realm but if you store in F-Nicrosil at the same time instead of an Allomantic effect happening the amount of Investiture that would power that effect instead gets stored.
  14. Probably because its not as durable as silver so it most likely has more niche applications
  15. There is a WOB about using A-Pewter to fill F-Pewter. Brandon says it’s possible just that it’s easier to do regular compounding. Do we know that it is only innate Investiture? F-Tin you can decide which sense to store. Can you decide between kinetic and passive Investiture for F-Nicrosil? Since you added Atium don’t forget that A-Lerasium forges Connection (or at least theorized so) which could possibly then be stored by F-Duralumin Here is a weird one because you are focusing on storing usually a secondary A-metal attribute into an F-metal but what about a secondary F-metal attribute into a different F-metal (obviously not something a regular Twinborn can do but someone spike might) and so the added weight from F-Pewter could be used to fill F-Iron.
  16. OP isnt saying that Virtuosity isnt a Shard just that they don’t think mentioning it is a spoiler. They think that counting Virtuosity there is one as of yet unrevealed Shard (true) and they think that that Shard otherwise called Wisdom/Prudence is in fact “Practicality” (theory).
  17. This was said in a thread on cremposting so it could just be a straight up lie but if not it’s definitely interesting. It could explain what attracted Shallan’s mother (I know the other theory you are talking about) to Lin Davar in the first place.
  18. Cool thanks for the info. I’ve heard an interesting theory that Shallan has relatively recent Nalthian ancestry that was supposedly confirmed by Brandon off mic.
  19. I think Brandon has implied that if he does a SH2 it might focus on Hoid and stuff like his activities in Era 1 (and hopefully up til him saving Wax on that boat). Maybe it can be a multi parter. Part 1 Hoid era 1 Part 2 Kel early era 2 Part 3 Hoid late era 2 Part 4 Kel late era 2.
  20. Do we know if a second generation singer is born on Nalthis would they be granted a Breath? Would the offspring of Nalthians who previously migrated off world be granted a Breath?
  21. Fabrial tech will need a few more advancements before Roshar has robots but the Sel is good candidate for also developing robots given it’s programming like magic system.
  22. I specifically chose Hazelight to contrast Mistlight in the way Hazekillers are meant to oppose Mistings/Mistborns. If we wanna specifically use a term more related to the Investiture though I could see Deeplight as the Deepness was caused by Ruin adding his Investiture to the Mists. Rust I felt does reflect Ruin’s Intent given that it symbolizes entropy. I used Colorlight for Breaths on similar justifications that you used Bloodlight for Ruin given how color is important to Awakening but since it’s Rhythm is most likely the Iridescent Tones but Iridescentlight is a bit much. Soullight and Solelight would be problematic phonetically (although only in English which of course is not a language in the cosmere), but I also feel conceptually it might be too similar to Lifelight. I do like Giftlight though. Harmony is one of the hardest due to its dual nature. While I think Preservation’s Investiture would be classified as Mistlight by Rosharans after the fact given that it no longer exists as such I could see them carrying that term over for Harmony as. The problem with this though is that even though the Investiture is expressed in similar ways the Rhythms would obviously be different. Preservation’s Rhythm is basically only described as pulses when Vin is searching for it so maybe Pulselight but I kinda want both Ruin’s and Preservation’s to be thematically tied. The only way to get Harmony on theme as well would be to go with Foglight which while funny is a bit too silly. And yeah I think that’s all the explicit gaseous Investiture we’ve seen in released works. I do assume the solar radiation is the gaseous Investiture on Taldain but it hasn’t been explicitly stated as such. Additionally not a gaseous Investiture but we do get the unnamed Rhythm combining Oduim and Cultivation.
  23. Ashlight is good. Rustlight is another possibility. Shadelight is really good given the limited information we have about the Threnody system.
