  1. Granted. The motivation you grant is the same motivation that intrusive thoughts provide. I wish that I looked like one of the Iriali.
  2. Compounding Sanderson's power.
  3. It'll actually be super easy, barely an inconvenience! Just enter a vision in the SR. Characters in the Cosmere did it with less knowledge than the average person on this website.
  4. Should I join ketchup, or create a new group who hates potatoes and ketchup. You know, for the bit. @Conure1243, what did Star do to you? Also, that reminds me, I wanted to test something. "Duck!" *Chucks a duck at lethal speeds at Conure*
  5. Welcome! What's your favorite scene in the Cosmere? Which book did you enjoy reading the most?
  6. I take a semi-break from the Shard for a week, and Star just gets murdered? I want this. I don't need anything else. Only this.
  7. Dragons are just some dude who told people about the T. Rex, and they made it even scarier. I'm calling it now.
  8. IM BAAAAAACK I need to stop lurking so much and post more...
  9. Um, hope it's fine if I add my two clips here. This is mostly based on my beliefs in the LDS church, and not all of it is church cannon but instead my personal opinions based on my upbringing. I do plan to see if any resources were posted in this thread for the sake of understanding. I'm gonna say this again just to avoid any accidental problems (sorry, but I'm paranoid). My beliefs, and I'm not attacking anyone, just adding to this discussion. I believe that the Book of Mormon comes from the descendents of Joseph, the grandson of the prophet Abraham. I believe that there is a verse at the end of Genesis that says this will happen. Religion is basically impossible to prove. Only prophets who have seen God can say "I know He exists", and they're all dead (or immortal but not publicly preaching that afaik *cough 3 Nephites and, I think, Paul cough*) I have my beliefs, but I can't prove it because the Bible is a shaky resource in scenarios like these, other denominations say the BOM is a lie by Joseph Smith, and my personal beliefs are based on emotional experiences instead of fact. One more thing I want to say on this sub-topic, non doctrine belief by the way, God created man using evolution, then stuff changed. I cite physical differences between Europe and Asia, as well as cancer, poor eyesight, disabilities, allergies, and things in that umbrella. It is not definitive, but I believe that God uses natural processes to create miracles. I just want to thank people here for the new insights. I don't get input from this viewpoint at all, and it is an interesting question.
  10. Not drinking coffee because you see what caffeine can do to a person. (No seriously, I know a guy who drinks a lot of caffeine, but he's always tired because he gets 2 hours of sleep a day)
  11. Welcome to the Shard! Cosmere subforums, as Taln Fan so kindly linked, is a fun place to ask questions or contribute to other theories. And as others will inevitably suggest, the Community subforum is a place to hang out and have fun with other people. Some roleplaying threads, such as The Longest Thread, are open and you can toss in a character to join the fun! Other threads such as Sanderson Elimination (Some people should show up soon and explain that stuff to you) is a scheduled roleplaying game similar to Mafia, One Night Ultimate Werewolf, Secret Hitler, and some others. Don't feel bad if you're overwhelmed! It's a lot, and people are very understanding. People are willing to explain stuff or link resources to help. With that out of the way, I can get to the important stuff: Would you rather hang out with Wit or Wayne? What's your favorite part of Sanderson's novels? World building, magic, characters, or something else?
  12. Oooh, group chat? Put me in coach! Aye aye captain! o7
  13. It worked for me. I'm up to Ch. 6: Ep. 1 Whatever that means, Haven't paid attention to how the chapter system works yet.
  14. "I close my eyes to take a small break, and this is what I come back to?" "Who's the first target?"
  15. I've seen ORV mentioned a lot, but I have no idea what it is.
  16. Granted. But the people love you so much for that wish that they mob you and remove any semblance of privacy. I wish for a really cool rock.
  17. High fantasy story with an interesting magic system. I thought the system was cool, but I had some issues with the writing. It was mainly the difficult to remember names and some of those places were not plot relevant. Gonna say it again: wonderful magic system.
