    God Metals and Shardblades

    in Cosmere Q&A

    Posted

    So I believe it has been stated repeatedly in The Stormlight Archive that the physical manifestations of Invested Slivers (i.e. spren and spren-ish beings) take the form of metal, for example Soulcasters or Spren-blades. Are these metals the God Metals of Honor/Cultivation/Odium? If so, what exactly does that entail---Radiant Spren are Invested by both Honor and Cultivation if I understand correctly, so are the blades some alloy of Honor-ium and Cultivation-ium? Is that similar or different from how Harmonium is an alloy of Atium and Lerasium? What about a corrupted spren like Glys? Would he be an alloy of Stormium, Lifeium, and Voidium (I think these are better names)?

    Spoiler

    Szeth uses Nightblood to chip Ishar's Honorblade at the end of Rhythm of War, is that chip an actually usable piece of Stormium? If so, what would happen to an Allomancer burning it? For that matter, what would happen if an Allomancer burned Tower-ium (Stormium+Lifium) or War-ium (Stormium+Voidium)?
