  1. Which'd equal about 1490 Breaths a year or 12 Breaths a month roughly. It's not too tall an order, considering that mostly the children of the lower classes came forward.
  2. IIRC Vasher is able to suppress his Breath and thus appear a Drab-which is what he meant when he said he had lived without it. Returneds can also stack Non-Divine Breaths on top of their Divine one. So, if Vasher had 3000 Normal Breaths, he could live for 3000 weeks without needing to get any new ones. They can survive seven days without Breath and they must consume one on the eighth day or they will die. There doesn't seem to be an in-between state, they're Returned or dead. Hallendren separated from Idris after the Manywar which occurred about 300 years before the books. During Warbreaker there were about 25 Gods in the Pantheon. I hope that helped
  3. That is actually a strong argument in her favour: she started out being highly sceptical remember? The ardents and other believers do think that Voidbringers existed and were responsible for the Desolations but Jasnah started out firmly prejudiced against their having ever existed. Edit: A Herald says they do, surely we can take their word? From chapter 72 Versitalian: And again: Would humans be silly enough to believe that they had tamed the Voidbringers and enslave them after every Desolation? Sure, as long as you keep in mind the long gaps between each one-the last one was 4.500 years ago.
  4. Doesn't that sound as though Ruin and Preservation were one Shard? I am not quite sure how to explain myself but has BS ever explicitly stated that the they are two different Shards? I mean, Sazed doesn't say that they had been separated but that they had been split. Or am I reading too much into this? Also: Full interview: here
  5. Oh phooey, it's US only
  6. Don't get burned hun
  7. I'd go with primarily light as well. Please put up a pic once you're done!
  8. It's simple-just take the following pic: Download, caption and post it here! Like so:
  9. Nightblood evaporates things: Warbreaker chapter 56: Shardblades simply cut through them.
  10. Late post is late but.. From the Prelude: We know that greatshells bleed purple: and again: Allowing for the red blood to be human, we can assume that the orange is that of Voidbringers. From chapter 26: I believe that we can safely assume that the Pashendi are either Voidbringers themselves or are closely related to them.
  11. BranSan fan first. Warbreaker was recommended to me and I liked it enough to finish Mistborn Elantris and TWoK in two weeks Haven't read WoT yet.

    Redshift?

    So. does this mean that you could make out if someone's burning cadmium/bendalloy by the difference in colours outside and inside the bubble?
  13. Adolin did not explicitly believe in it but he did live it-remember when he defended that prostitute? Your argument that people change is valid however. Perhaps we'll see Dallinar bully him into reforming.
  14. That makes much more sense than my theory, bravo!
  15. Sadeas doesn't fulfil the first oath of the Knights Radiant though, the one they all swear by: Strength before weakness Jounry before destination, Life before death. Didn't Syl fight off the Deathspren though? Edit: I don't remember Spren being mentioned during Dallinar's visions or the prelude, now that I think about it. If they were the "body" of Honour, surely they would have been present back then as well?
  16. Red herring, like TLR's map in HoA. I can imagine Brandon reading our theorie ("Wayne's Hat Made Of Lerasum!", "Louse Living in Hat Are Actually Kandra") and chuckling evilly.
  17. He did not ask for cloth on it's own, he intended to sell it so that he could feed his family during the turnip famine. This would classify his request as loving, which in the Arcs Arcanum is the primary quality associated with the Eyes.
  18. I just joined TWG last week It's a pity it fell victim to a black hat.
  19. Is it this image you're referring to? It looks to me like a chart of Soulcasting elements and the like.
  20. Sanderson has said that Hemalurgy reorganises spiritual data: and
  21. From what I gathered after reading the book, the Heralds seemed to have a pact with Odium/whoever controls the Voidbringers that the longer they last under the torture, the longer he'll hold off the Voidbringers.
  22. The three systems were just there due to the DNA created by the dual actions of Ruin and Preservation. They can both fuel all three arts, it is just that allomancy is more compatible with Preservation and Hemalury with Ruin. As to why there are only 16 metals: perhaps that's how the system works? Like not all mushrooms are edible in our world, not all metals are burnable on Scardial.
  23. I thought of one. It's supposed to be about the Nightwatcher: Blesses to curse-one heart's desire-unknowingly-desiring heart's-one curse to bless On Szeth: Bound to honour-forced to madness-breaking-madness to force-honour to bind.
  24. Here it is:Interlude 7 Baxil Here's another relevant quote from the same chapter: I have a semi-explanation for this: remember that Shallan's essence is almost certainly blood and that her creative skills involves taking/capturing a memory. I'm not sure how to extend that but it may be that the rational lies that way->Dallinar, overcome with grief after his wife's death goes to Nightwatcher to have her memories removed. The Memory, falling under Shash, means that her curse is that of blood. You can make the same reasoning for Av's father: His love for his family caused him to seek out Nightwatcher's help, pinning him as loving. As a result, his curse was that of the eyes.
  25. There's one more reason against the Shardbearer being a Herald: the swords of Heralds disappear after they die remember?
