What in Damnation is this guy?, Amethyst thought. But then, who am I to judge over mental illnesses. The man asked him: “So what makes you think you're qualified for this position? Also how did you hear about us I thought we were covert?" “So, for the first question, I am an assassin. That is something you can always use. But I am not only an assassin, but also a melee weapon expert. And also, I have some strengths that I will tell you, when you take me into the Guild. As to the second one, seems like it’s useful to kill some citizens.” @MacThorstenson

Someone opened the door. The… man? thing? Amethyst didn’t know. He (or maybe it?) asked him: "Are you uh, the one who knocked on the door thingy there?" Amethyst answered: „Yes, that was me. I want to join the Dark Alley. We will both benefit from it.“ @MacThorstenson

Amethyst did not think. He just did as MIND told him to do. MIND always knew what was right. MIND could guide him. And so he followed. Actually, MIND wasn´t the only living piece of neurons in his head. There was this other part that sometimes had a little discussion with MIND. This piece... it knew what had happened. It knew what he was doing now, and it did not like it. But MIND said what he needed to do and so he did. There was one thing Amethyst knew for certain: MIND wanted him to acquire a weapon more potent. A shardblade. And for that he needed him to join... the Dark Alley, even though he knew nothing about so called "Hemalurgy". And cookies. So now he stood in front of the door of the Guild House, and knocked.

It rained, and Amethyst stood in the rain. Why he stood there? That was a good question. He actually didn’t know. He remembered, that around two hours ago he knew why he went to this place, but now he just didn’t know anymore. He still stood in the rain, and his only piece of mind, that was not completely destroyed in the… Stop, he said to himself. Don’t remember. Leave the thinking for MIND. This piece of mind, that actually knew why he was standing in the rain, woke up. It stretched its limbs, and went to the toilet. It got some cookies and a coffee, and then, only then, Amethyst knew why he stood in the rain. He was waiting for a certain person to walk by. A person that was not noteworthy in any way. A normal citizen, doing his daily work. And because of that, he was Amethysts next target. Amethyst had been an Knight Radiant once. He had even spoken the Second Ideal of his Order, but… Don’t remember. Do what MIND says you need to do, and then stop thinking. I will remember those that have been forgotten. And I will do so by killing them. And so, on a rainy day, Amethyst waited in the Alleycity for a certain person to come by. To kill him. Now, while he waited, he could also think, no? What was it. Why is it this exact person that I’m going to kill? IT IS NOT IMPORTANT. But… am I not an Edgedancer? Am I not supposed to help people? IT IS NOT IMPORTANT. Why. Why this suffering. Why a broken mind, no remembrance, and a mission that I don’t know, but need to fulfill. Why me? If there is a god in this world of forgetting, ANSWER ME!!! I WILL TELL YOU. THE PHILOSOPHY OF NOTHINGNESS. DO YOU REMEMBER? DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS CRUEL WORLD HAS DONE? DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU HAVE SEEN? DO YOU WANTTO KNOW? Amethyst waited. It was eight o’clock. At 8:30, a person crossed the street. He looked normal. Black hair, brown eyes. Works as an merchant. Amethyst knew what he would do. He positioned himself so that he would perfectly slide into a big box, filled with fruits, on the other side of the street. He took his blade into an backhand grip, and then it was just muscle memory. Activate the Surge of Abrasion, slide into the person, make the death strike that plunges right into the heart, and then… go blind. Yes, that was always not a really comfortable thing. Anyway, slide blindly into the fruit box with a perfectly placed jump at the end, grow for the box a wooden lid with the Surge of Progression, and the wait until you can see something again. Amethyst executed this process, and after that the only thing left was darkness.

Could someone please sum me up the current plot? Thanks!

Actually not, because I havent watched GoT and have only read book 1 of ASOIAF, but thats really interesting! I didnt know that!

better now? I have changed some things. Name: Amethyst Physical Characteristics: lean, 180 cm, brown hair, black eyes (completely), no pupils Investiture: Knight Radiant, Edgedancer of the Second Ideal, Skills: Melee Weapon expert Equipment: short sword/long knife with two edges that cannot go blunt Weakness: after having touched somebody with his blade, he cannot see anything for around 3 hours, Family: none Home Planet: Roshar Backstory: after having been inaugurated as an Edgedancer and speaking the Second Ideal, something happened, so now he thinks that he will help the forgotten the most if he kills them (Philosophy of Nothingness), still, his broken mind that has almost no emotion left, shuts himself from the outer world when touching someone with his blade, by making Amethyst go blind for around 3 hours after the touch, now he is searching for a more effective weapon than his sword... Guild (can be unaffiliated): none Personality: completely broken-minded, kills because of his philosophy Appearance: extremely forgettable, nothing that stands out, except the eyes Fighting Style: killing blow, as little strikes as possible,

My Character Amethyst. I hope the Weakness makes up for the really strong other things, if not I will change.

Hello, I would want to start a new Character. I absolutely love the SA, but haven’t read Mistborn etc. Is that still ok?

I actually think it is Szeth because I really like the idea of the “Assassin who weeps as he kills” But I am really interested in what happens after the End of WoR

Hi everyone, I’m here, after I have read The Way of Kings and Words of Radiance an Edgedancer, and now am reading Oathbringer. I read absolutely ALL fantasy books, but have not read SA because it was not finished. I was wrong. SA is the best fantasy book I have read in the last three years, and I absolutely LOVE the Worldbuilding and Lore! I hope to have a good time here at 17th Shard!
