there

ok, give me a dare

what is going on?

Hey ya'll! Sorry, I haven't been able to get on for a couple days. I really appreciate you guys welcoming me, so I'm going to go to all the questions I missed and answer them. Hello @Magi! My least favorite character is probably Venli. Honestly I have mostly forgiven her for the True Desolation, but I personally don't like her as a viewpoint character because she is so pessimistic. I actually LOVE bagels! Hi! I feel pretty nice today! How are you? Hmm...I really like A-Bronze just cuz its cool, and I have always thought that F-Duralumin was a very practical option in the cosmere, so yeah. A-Bronze and F-Duralumin Nice to meet you @TwinStorm! Hi @Halcyon The Only! Honorary Mother? My favorite tress character is Charlie (including rat mode) Honestly I haven't really seen many musicals, so probably Suessical or something My favorite song though, is definitely Strawberry Fields Forever, by The Beatles Hello @Aeternum! Welcome to the Shard @Karmir! I'm doing pretty good. How are you? Also, you should make an intro topic

I think that it does store your abilities to store your abilities. You are just still able to stop filling it or else you'll just enter a negative feedback loop and suddenly lose all your investiture, which would be sad. (which actually now that I think about it would be a powerful weapon, if you could trigger it on someone else) According to the talk I've heard around F-nicrosil, yes it would boost allomancy almost like a controllable duralumin, like @Quantus said I think this depends on the general feeling people see investiture. If the world thinks that they are separate, then like tin you would need a metalmind for each. If they don't it would be more like a coppermind. This is because, from my understanding, the reason tinminds need to be seperate is because each sense is viewed as separate, while your memories are more of a hodgepoge mixture. as for your last question, I don't think we have an answer, cause none of this is cannon (which I actually didn't know until I read this thread!) Hope this helps!

I've never really thought about that! That could help explain things like allomancy, because the common description that I've seen says that when you burn a metal you channel a different amount of investiture, and you use the metal as a guide so the investiture "knows" how much to use. But that has always seemed off. I like the idea of it being varying levels of harmonics. This could also describe the surges. It is commonly known that the surges are different mixtures of Tanavastium and Koravelium (correct me if that is the wrong name, as I'm not fully sure) even though they are the same alloy (i forgot where I heard this, but I'm pretty sure its WoB) but if it was instead harmonics... Take progression (healing) which from my understanding is "more" cultivation. But what if instead it was the same but cultivation's frequency was the "root" and honor's was the "fifth" or another part of the chord (this is some music talk. The root is the base of the chord. For a C chord, the root would be C. and the Fifth is the fifth note in the scale. For C that would be G. It's a little complex, and if you don't understand, just think of the fifth being "less critical" to the chord, therefore not the key note that you hear.)

One of the most interesting things about investiture to me is its connection to music and color. This is mentioned in excess through the cosmere, particularly on Roshar and Nalthis. And, we know that each Shard has its own tone (or frequency of sound). Also, I'm pretty sure its cannon that every shard has its own color/s (or frequency of light). Now my thought was that because they are both frequencies, they are actually the same, and each shards unique frequency defines the investiture and all the stuff that goes along with that. I would like to know what you guys think of this! Also, I want to know what this could even mean. It may be just some random fun fact about investiture or maybe it could mean something more...

huh. Then they probably would be purple, cause why not

umm...White probably? like a normal person?

wussup

I have read all of the cosmere books, except for WaT, which I am still reading. I also read the entire skyward, steelheart, and wheel of time series and I have also read the rithmatist. my favorite spren has got to be inkspren, and my favorite character is Sazed. actually i do play music! I play the bass for my school jazz band and for an after school 80s rock band. My favorite magic system would be Feruchemy, but like the implications of combining multiple metalic arts.

Hey there! I just joined 17th shard and I'm really excited! My favorite Brandon Sanderson book is probably Tress of The Emerald Sea, but I also really like both mistborn arcs.
