Since the identity of the Fused is the same, couldn't a Bloodmaker fused just store and then die repetitively, in order to tap enough health to basically revive them from death?

Old Age

wait 

Oscar or Yoda?

They were also in The Way of Kings - Interlude 1 (along with Baon who is from White Sand) - There Ishikk nicknamed them Thinker, Grump, and Blunt

yeah I read the copper mind stuff on it. Thanks

OH CRAP OK

THX

time to sit in a corner and reread HoA and all of Stormlight (or SA I guess)

yeah I get that they could survive I guess he demoux was just heavily invested enough to become a Cognitive Shadow

or something 

oh crap upon reading coppermind... baod is in the 17th shard too? he probably uses starmarks or something 

what? 

What's SA?

didnt shashara die way before lift was born? doesn't Warbreaker take place quite a bit before Arc 1 of Storm light?

DISCLAIMER: I haven't read Emberdark yet, and I haven't done much research on this subject on this forum, so I might be saying something somebody else has already said, or that we already know.

That aside, In WaT, Dalinar meets the Cognitive and Spiritual (I guess) being that is forming within the power of Honor. I believe that, like Honor formed a conscousness, Adonalsium was originally just a BIG pile of slightly aware Investiture that, over time, developed maybe not a personality, but at least a bit of Intent (enough to create/influence the Rosharan system and Yolen and stuff). 

I also think that maybe, just maybe, this is what's going to happen in Dragonsteel. Don't get me wrong, I am a big fan of the idea of like Hoid or the Blackthorn taking up becoming Adonalsium 2.0, but... I think that there was a true purpose to that scene, and that maybe all shards, even the ones that are just big piles of Investiture lying around in the cognitive realm (*cough* *Devotion and Dominion* *cough* *cough*) maybe might like come together. I don't really think that the dead ones would have any sort of brainpower, but the other shards might be like developing too (they are all the same age)

Also, with the whole "glass window" thing, I think that they could meld together, and that one of the reasons that Harmony doesn't work the best is because they don't have the other Aspects to balance him out truly (like if Ruin-Preservation-Autonomy was a thing, the two might cancel each other, but the Vessel could act with Autonomy)

If somebody could explain why I'm wrong that'd be great.

Oh yeah, I forgot he died at the end with all the koloss and stuff. And with Galladon, could he have survived the time in between series? I don't think we ever got a true measure on Elantrian lifetimes, did we?

So in the Stormlight archive, the characters Demoux and Galladon are each mentioned like once (I think as members of the ghostbloods, and idk where because I'm not trying to comb through all 6,452 pages for the 4rth time). Are these the real og characters? I don't think so because they have mentioned people named like Vin and Elend after the OGs, but... still...

Exactly! Plus, the moons themselves precede the Shards. It makes more sense to say that the moons and superspren were created together. And that the Shards aren't related since they didn't even exist when Adonalsium created Roshar.

I will admit that there are WoBs and even this excerpt from the Cosmere RPG that tie the coloring of the moons to the Shards:

  Hide contents

 

But those colors seem to come from Stormlight, Lifelight, and Voidlight more so than the Shards themselves. And we know that the lights are intrinsically linked to 3 of the 4 rhythms of Roshar; which also predate the Shards arrival to the system.

It's what I pitched in the topic I linked earlier. Four rhythms and four moons should mean four lights and four ancient spren (and four Bondsmiths by extension). Because Adonalsium originally designed Roshar and he is associated with the number four (four Dawnshards and four aspects).

Does that mean that before honor and cultivation's children, the stone, night, and storm were able to be bonded by bondsmiths? I mostly agree with your theory, and I think that the colors of the moons could have just changed with the new shards in the system. heck, maybe it was adonalsiums moon and the well that is odium's now was originally adonalsiums. Also, if it was a fourth spren's moon, what was the whole hiding those people (Who I also believe were the sleepless under the ground)

Sorry if that was a bit of a yapfest

thanks!

In tlm, TwinSoul talks about the age of the aether's. I noticed people talking a lot like they believed twinsoul (saying it like its a fact), and that adonalsium is younger than the aether's. was this ever confirmed by Brandon?

Hi! I'm Clarkmon22!

I've read all of Brandon's Mistborn books about 15 times over, as well as Sunlit Man, Tress, Yumi, and the Reckoners and Skyward series (Not including skyward flight)

Fun facts: My favorite Cosmere characters so far are Hoid (Obviously), Wayne, and Sazed (Before he became Harmony). My favorite book so far has been secret history because Kell was always up there near my favorite characters. 

Hobbies: Reading, biking, reading more, reading history, Legend of Zelda

Thank y'all so much for explaining this

In chapter 40 of the Hero of Ages, the Noorden talks about the mists killing people and the patterns and about the sixteen metals and such and so forth. It's revealed at the end that the 16 people that were affected most were atium mistings, like Yomen. Is this a plothole? because in the ars arcanum at the end of the lost metal, Brandon says that there are 16 base metals and 16 additional ones for each god metal. Does this mean that the whole 16 thing was just preservation looking for attention? if anyone has any suggestions that'd be GREAT, this has been bugging me for YEARS.
