  1. I'm not saying Kaladin's a more interesting character. I'm saying, just as people, Kaladin is better than Kelsier. 1. Selfless... or not? Kaladin is far more selfless than Kelsier. In Rhythm of War, he gives up the possibility of peace to save his friend. He is very willing to give up his own well-being for others. But it seems like everything Kelsier does is to be THE AWESOMEST and to be seen as THE AWESOMEST. Which is a very different motivation. 2. Intentionally Starting Followings Kelsier made a kandra imitate him to intentionally start a cult/religion. All Kaladin had to do was be his awesome self-- and boom! Shash brands painted on foreheads galore! He wasn't even trying to start a cult. Which isn't the same thing, I know. But Bridge Four sorta worship him a little, which he did not intend. So Kelsier worked to make people worship him, where as Kaladin just did his thing and oops, he (kind of) started a cult. 3. Grudges Well, in the first couple books, Kaladin hates lighteyes. All. Of. Them. Well, in all of Kelsier's books, he. Hates. Nobles. He will kill nobles just for existing. And even when Kaladin was at the worst of hating lighteyes, he didn't indiscriminately murder them. And he slowly learns to get over his grudge. I see that most nobles were actually evil in Mistborn, whereas not as much so in Stormlight. But still, Kelsier takes his hate to a disturbing level. And he basically refuses to see that any nobles could be good. Whereas by Words of Radiance, Kaladin is willing to see that lighteyes(Shallan, Dalinar) can be good people. Even when Kelsier saves Elend's life, he does it because of Vin, not because he thinks Elend is a worthwhile person. Whereas Kaladin uses what he thinks are his last breaths to try and protect a lighteyes(in WoR). Honorary Mention: 4. The Ghostbloods??? Okay, this one is less supported and less reasoned out. <---(is that a thing people say?) But I don't know, the Ghostbloods seem pretty shady. And... yeah. Kelsier... is...(beware, weird Cosmerian spoilers follow...) Thaidakar! Leader of the Ghostbloods! And if that's not fishy, I don't know what is. Disclaimer: I have not read Mistborn Era 2.(haha almost spelled Era as Ear) But yeah! Feel free to argue discuss to your heart's content! I will see if anyone changes my mind...(do I know what that emoji means exactly...? not really. oh well.)
  2. Kingdom of Worthless Treasure
  3. VENGEANCE WAS MINE! When you accidentally spoil a Sanderson book for someone else.
  4. Would you like to ask your sister what her username means? Not that I've been wondering... *cough cough*
  5. By the way, I have updated my story. So if y'all want to read a more polished version, just click the link again. It should be different.
  6. Hello, I'm a lurker. I think you should draw Syl. Because I have tried. And I have... not done great. So I want to see you do it. Because you're definitely a better artist than I am. I don't know any of the people you drew, I'm afraid(except Kaladin. Duh.) But they're STILL AWESOME.
  7. "It's not HoED it's HoaD" -Me
  8. Thanks! Good to know. Although if I made it Heart of Every Dragon, the acronym could be HoED. And who doesn't want to be a Hoed?!
  9. Hey! So the story's about a girl who sets out to return a dragon heart made of fire to its rightful dragon owner. Which title is best? If you have an idea, that'd be great! Here's the link to the topic about my story:
  10. When you're playing Nine Square in the Air and get someone out then say "Gotta do what you can to stay alive..." And horrify your friend(who is a low-key Sanderfan).
  11. Hmm. Also, why can Leshwi hear the old rhythms? Is that something any Fused can just choose to do? Or is there something weird about her?
  12. Thanks! I'm honestly surprised I made anything particularly good with digital art.
  13. From the album: Shallan Stormblessed's not incredible art!

    It often describes Syl as zipping around as a ribbon of light, so(after giving up on a much more ambitious digital art idea) I decided to draw that.
  14. And the Ten Fools!
  15. Random theory: Could she have been a singer Radiant on the side of the humans long ago, then switched sides for some reason? (or maybe she wasn't a Radiant but was on the human's side.)
  16. Um... I'm not sure what I think of Hoidnah. It's a little weird...
  17. Soo... you know that thing I sold your pearl necklace for? That I never told you what it was...? Well... now you know. I discovered your secret. You thought you could HIDE the giant sack of uncured ham?! Ah... I'll be happy to clear up this little misunderstanding if... you'll marry me!
  18. What is your one of your Lightweaver truths? Haha, you're funny. Wait, seriously?
  19. I admit it... I was the dump cake all along. Didn't you notice? The cat is still in your pocket.
  20. Go to your profile. Click Edit Profile(close to the top right of the screen.) At the top you can enter in a rank. Right now, I rate yours 0/10.
  21. Colorful. I like the blue part, as I am one too. 9/10.
  22. Kaladin's Third Ideal--not after he says it but before. Because after, when he's healed, he's powerful and terrifying, but it's beforehand, when he's fatally injured and stands up anyway, is what's awesome about that scene, in my opinion Kaladin vs. the Pursuer--that incredible showdown! Kaladin held by Tien, comforted by him. Instead of Kaladin, grief-ridden, holding Tien's dead body, Tien holds Kaladin, comforts him and tells him it's okay. Finally! We waited for that scene for a looong time.
